do draw the line at Drag Queen Story Hour for children, or holding a Drag Queen strip show for children at a local bar. Pride parades are fine... but not people dressed in thongs or completely naked parading through towns in front of children.
Although, i have to say, I was reading some studies the other day and apparently gay marriages have a higher chance of success, just speaking from a statistical standpoint...?
1 in 5 Americans who claim to be single has been involved in a consensual, open relationship.
Around 4% to 9% of American adults engage in some sort of open relationship.
In a study of 2,270 respondents, 4% reported being in an open relationship.
Respondents who are male, gay/lesbians, bisexuals, and who identified as “other, non-Hispanic” make up the majority of individuals who have engaged in an open relationship.
32% of gay respondents reported being in an open relationship compared to 22% of bisexual participants, 5% of lesbian participants, and 14% of respondents who identified as “other.”
Having sex with partners outside the marriage is less likely to be the cause of a split and is in fact encouraged by a subset of the gay community, so I'm sure that skews those statistics.
In a study of 86 gay couples that was published in 2010, nearly 50% of the relationships were open relationships before the first year was up.
Beyond Monogamy: Lessons From Long-Term, Non-Monogamous Male Couples
Anecdotally, we used to live in Denver, CO and our next door neighbors were gay and in an open relationship for over 20 years before getting married once it became legal. They mostly had quit sleeping with each other unless they tag teamed another partner, and they loved to tell us these kinds of details. The main reason they married was for financial purposes and that was according to them. They were already co-owners of their home and the marriage allowed the partner with better healthcare benefits to sign up the other on their plan.
Oh, it could be. I'd argue we are close right now in America. Ever read brave new world? Everyone had a right to each other's bodies. That's where we are headed with this oppressor/oppressed bullshit. Remember Sodom? Those men believed they had a right to the bodies of the visitors. In ancient Rome they practiced pederasty in which older men had a right to young boy's bodies. It has happened before and can happen again. This is what validating "minor attracted persons" is all about. Minors can't consent. They want a right to children's bodies.
Liberalism had made tolerance of the "different" a law of the land. Sin is deserving of shame. People should be ashamed of their sin. We are past a point of civil penalties for homosexual acts, but we could get to a place of rarity an obscurity to make civil penalties common place again.
God prescribed the death penalty for adultery, which is fine when it's super rare across your culture, but if it's common place, that simply isn't feasible. The death penalty is still accepted in places across America for murder, but it will take awhile for people to back the death penalty for doctors that perform abortions. The overturning of Roe is too new.
It took time for the gay agenda to get as far as it has, and as the perversions intensify, so too does the backlash. But it will take time and revival to codify God's sexually laws back to the civil sphere.
Not from gay individuals who always exist in every society. From a specific Queer Theory program that channeled from postmodern thinkers, through academia, to the popular culture and a compliant media who wants to reshape our perception of reality as a web of power struggles between groups of powerful and powerless, between language usages, between sets of moral assumptions, etc. This is the slippery slope you're looking for.
And how do you think we got here exactly?
