Promiscuity is a sign of low self esteem and growing up in a society that dooms you from the start creates low self esteem. Maybe society should try to raise homosexuals that don't have sex outside marriage. Then let them get married. Maybe we should also teach better sex education in schools focusing on safe sex practices for both hetero and gay students. Promote an enviroment where gays and lesbians grow up feeling good about themself and take care of themselves becasue of it.

Just my rambling for the week!
In my opinion healthier homosexual is an oxymoron, but that's just my opinion.
So do you think that if we raise kids with high self-esteem, maybe less of them will become gay as well? I don't buy your argument. If you look at the performance of American students on standardized tests and compare their results to other developed countries, a couple of facts emerge. 1. We aren't as smart as everybody else. 2. We have a higher self-esteem than everybody else.
With all of the touchy-feely programs in public schools pumping kids' egos up and the lengths that are gone to not negatively affect a student, why would anyone feel doomed?
