Human sexual behavior is Natural, but some sexual behaviors are not necessarily Normal.
The definition of Natural is:
Being in accordance with or determined by nature. Example: Natural impulses.
Definitions:
Normal is the common pattern of behavior found among the majority.
Abnormal is the common pattern of behavior found among the minority.
The U.S. population is approximately 92.9% heterosexual and 7.1% lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or something other than straight or heterosexual, reference below.
Heterosexuality is normal
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or something other than straight or heterosexual is abnormal
Before you get your panties in a twist, consider the same sociologically speaking analysis of pet ownership, dogs vs cats.
The U.S. pet ownership is approximately 60% Dogs and 40% Cats
Dog ownership is normal.
Cat ownership is abnormal.
REFERENCE: WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Gallup finds 7.1% of U.S. adults identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or something other than straight or heterosexual. The percentage has steadily increased since Gallup first measured LGBT identification in 2012.
NOTE: There are approximately 70M (60%) dog owners and 45M (40%) cat owners in the U.S.
All: I Hope you enjoyed this ad-hoc lesson in Philosophy 101 (Logic) and Sociology 101 (Human Behavior) as much as I did
While there may well be more dog owners in the US, there are far more Cat Videos on the Internet.
Dogs are for companionship, Cats are for adorability.
It's hard, in my mind, to compare it as a Yin or Yang, take it or leave it, scenario such as gender.
There's nothing wrong with having a cat and a dog. There is something wrong with trying to present as another gender. Typically, no one will want to be with someone who can't make up their mind about something as simple as what they got going on downstairs.
Dog and Cat ownership are both normal, because it's not exclusive. Compare Hamster vs. Cat using your same assessment system, and you'll be forced to say that Cat ownership is normal when compared to abnormal Hamster ownership.
In reality, the premise is flawed because you CAN have more than one pet, but you can't have more than one gender.
Every population in the world has males and females. Not every population in the world includes pets such as rabbits. Some places just don't have rabbits, and so keeping them as pets never caught on.
I get your point, but you're splitting hairs in what seems like an effort to normalize dog ownership while gaslighting cat owners into an "abnormal" category which is on its face just not sincere.
I can agree that being straight is normal, but your argument has a glaring flaw which a clever Groomer could exploit to prove you "wrong."
Abnormal is not bad, it is just not normal. Don't over think it. We all have been gaslit by the misuse of words. Cat owners are not bad. Cat owning is outside the norm in the population of cat plus dog owners in which a majority own dogs and a minority own cats. I agree the analogy is a bit of a stretch, it is just taking the definitions literally.
