Ben Carson: Being Gay Is A Choice Because Of Prison Sex [VIDEO]

[TheTexan]

Depends what kind of prison sex

[Murray N Rothbard]

It's said the average male thinks about sex every five seconds...

Assuming the same for homosexual men, I'd say they're probably right to be pissed about being told the involuntary thoughts going through their head every 5 seconds are their "choice."

I think the issue people are having is seeing this as behavior vs identity. Identity determines behavior, not the other way around. Gays likely want to see it from the perspective of identity because they live that every day and the behavior itself probably seems like a very little part of it, it may not even have ever happened. The GOP for whatever reason wants to see it behaviorally probably because they see the behavior as some violation to be held accountable for, and because of the underlying religious angst they get from acknowledging that people have sexual thoughts all the time. They're products of genes and environments never in their control, and they say a lot more about a person's identity than what comes to the surface as behavior.

If you think being gay is a choice, you're not straight. I'm straight, and there is no possible way I can be attracted to a man-ass. People who think it's a choice or believe in the mythologically-based "temptation of homosexuality" are the ones tempted and choosing...us straight people aren't able to like the same sex. Whether it is purely genetic, epigenetic, or something that happens very early in childhood, who knows...but it certainly is one of the three. Every gay or bi person I know and have known since grade school or middle school was known to be not straight by all the other kids before they even knew themselves. It's not a choice. Those who believe it is are in the closet bi or gay. It's that simple. If it isn't, how come I can't find man-ass attractive, but totally find most woman-ass sexy, or at least not totally repulsive (of course some exceptions for the obese or surgically-altered exist)?

When people say it is choice to be attracted to what sex(es) they are attracted to, I always chuckle and say "it's okay, you can come out now".

It's not scientific. Scientists deny that.

If you think being gay is a choice, you're not straight.

And you're not right. I have had a ton of ***** acquaintances and a few friends. In most cases I would agree that they were born that way, but not in all. Several of my **** friends/acquaintances were very emphatic on the point that they were manufactured. Furthermore, I grew up in a very violent place where ***** rape was a more or less daily occurrence. Quite a few of those victims grew up ***** as it gets. I have no doubt whatsoever that had those children been left in peace, they would have grown into healthy heterosexual adulthood.

I'm straight, and there is no possible way I can be attracted to a man-ass.

And had you been employed as someone's catamite, you would have grown into a flaming ****. Nature speaks for much of what we are, but that can almost always be subverted by... AHEM... "nurture", or more aptly in this case, circumstance.

People who think it's a choice or believe in the mythologically-based "temptation of homosexuality" are the ones tempted and choosing...us straight people aren't able to like the same sex.

This seems to be a real issue with you. Hmmmm...

Whether it is purely genetic, epigenetic, or something that happens very early in childhood, who knows...but it certainly is one of the three.

After that short diatribe, you turn 180* and contradict yourself. WTH?

Every gay or bi person I know and have known since grade school or middle school was known to be not straight by all the other kids before they even knew themselves.

And my experiences contradict yours. Given mine are broader than yours in scope, it would seem you have been trumped.

It's not a choice.

In most cases, I tend to agree. But not in all.

I will add that the instance of homosexuality is growing significantly. One is then moved to ask, "why?" There are several possible answers. One is that the stigma is lifting and more people are coming out who would otherwise have remained closeted. I believe this is plausible, but not to the degree we are witnessing. To my way of seeing, based on my experiences and my knowledge of the human beast, the far more likely answer is that children now come up in an environment that does not just teach about *****, but rather editorializes and in fact encourages the choice. It is one thing to recognize ***** as an aberration of the normal sexual function of human beings and to acknowledge that while abnormal, it is nonetheless natural and no reason for grave alarm. They are not taught that normal children may be turned through environmental factors. They are not taught that gay is something to be avoided unless one has the unmistakable burn to be "that way".

What they are taught is that "gay is OK", but not in the proper tone. Rather, it is a tone that through innuendo drives children toward that outcome. I have witnessed this in the schools. It is on the television, and in all media outlets. Gay is not being acknowledged in an honest and rational manner. Rather, it is being PROMOTED in the way similar to the guy at the circus who stands before the big-top, crying "hurry, hurry, hurry, step right up..."

Let us not be naive or willfully blind. There is a sea change afoot and it is eating children up. Perhaps this is the effect of "over population" - I concede the possibility - but I do not accept it as a likely truth. There has always been an element that has sought to expand its ranks and they seem to be succeeding.

To believe that ***** is only by non-choice is ludicrous on its face. Ben Carson is right in the sense of the example of prisons. Lots of men who are morally weak give in to the drives and become *****. That in itself is prima facie proof that in some cases ***** is indeed by choice. His error lays in assuming it to be the universal case, which it is clearly not. I have known people so flaming ***** that the atmosphere around them would combust as they floated down the sidewalks.

Each of the extreme positions is flawed.

ETA: The commonly asserted claim that 10% of humanity is naturally ***** passes no muster with me. I would bet money I do not have that it is significantly less than 1%, perhaps under 0.5%. The reason for this is simple statistical reality. Ten percent is a HUGE proportion of any population. Ten percent ***** could not be successfully contained for millennia in the ways that it had been. Now, all of a sudden, all the *****s are breaking out? Bull$#@!. Consider Rome, where having catamites was a commonplace among the wealthy. Even there the appearance is that nowhere near 10% of that population was *****. The 10% claim is made mostly by the ***** and is nothing more than a very transparent attempt to gain legitimacy. I find that amusing in that were they in possession of themselves and the innate validity of their positions as *****s, they would have no need to manufacture "respectability". They refuse to accept that they are abnormal because they believe that being regarded as "normal" is some grand objective of the **** "community". This is but the merest taste of how out to lunch a great many of these people are - the more "militant" of the ilk, shall we say? I have only one close ***** friend these days, and he is nothing like this. He's a very normal sort of person in every respect, save that he is a ****. He makes no issue of it. He goes about his life as you and I would. The *****s militant, I suspect, represent a very small percentage of people of that orientation. Perhaps I am mistaken on that point.

Those who believe it is are in the closet bi or gay.

You are dead wrong. The more your write, the more I am moved to go "Hmmmmm...."

It's that simple.

No, it is that SIMPLISTIC. World is a bit more subtle and complicated than you would have us believe.

If it isn't, how come I can't find man-ass attractive, but totally find most woman-ass sexy, or at least not totally repulsive (of course some exceptions for the obese or surgically-altered exist)?

Why protesteth thou with such venom?

When people say it is choice to be attracted to what sex(es) they are attracted to, I always chuckle and say "it's okay, you can come out now".

Whatever gets you through your day.

Not sure how much if any was OP news a factor but there are unconfirmed reports that Carson has suspended campaigning.

Ben Carson Calls Transgender Military Members A Distraction

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa -- Ben Carson told veterans at an event in Waterloo, Iowa, on Saturday that the military is not the place to deal with the “transgender thing.”

“I do not appreciate using our military as a laboratory for a social experiment,” Carson said at a town hall hosted by Concerned Veterans for America. “You know, we have too many important things to do.”

The retired neurosurgeon and Republican presidential hopeful questioned allowing people who identify as transgender to serve in the military. His comments come as Pentagon officials prepare the logistics of integrating transgender troops into the armed forces next year.

Controvercial politician BC in news again.

[sparebulb]

What about scientifical-like evidence that men that are put in the military come out as homosexuals.

Just look at the Navy, they never leave their buddy's behind.

And the Air Force, as a whole, is completely gay.

Media doing countless stories on gay woman who confronted Ben Carson with "I think you're full of sh*t!"
01/06/2016
Uscianowski, who identifies as bisexual, has been the subject of countless media reports since she confronted the Republican candidate after a town hall meeting on Jan. 4, at the Hilton Garden Hotel Inn in Bloomfield, New York. The interaction, which was captured on camera by ABC News, showed Uscianowski, who was wearing a Pride Center T-shirt, when she asked Carson, "Do you think I chose to be gay?"
Watch the confrontation below, then scroll down to keep reading.

After Carson dismissed her question simply as a "long conversation," Uscianowski fired back and said, "I think you're full of sh*t!"

Ben Carson should be no near the White House. I remember how some Boy Scott leaders were gay but had to keep that to themselves at least, until now in this new decade.
People like Carson and the Current GOP views of LGBT community has to chance. Ben Carson exists only because of the white guilty.

[Rad]

Perhaps those men are bisexual like Ben Carson. The guys who like women who look like supermodels and tattooed men in prison! Its a dead give away when he says that its a choice. Its a choice for him.

[enhanced_deficit]

While it maybe that some other vocal anti-gay politicians later were outed by lib media, have not seen any news saying Ben Carson was of such orientation as you say he is... not that there will be anything wrong with it if he is.

H/T Zippy:



Ben Carson Tapped to Head Housing and Urban Development

Ben Carson will be nominated as the next secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Trump transition team announced Monday.

"I am thrilled to nominate Dr. Ben Carson as our next Secretary of the US Department of Housing and Urban Development," President-elect Donald Trump said in a statement. "Ben Carson has a brilliant mind and is passionate about strengthening communities and families within those communities."

During their primary fight, though, Trump had derided Carson as "super low energy" and delivered a number of sharp attacks on Twitter, questioning Carson's temperament and qualifications for office.



The secretary of housing and urban development oversees federal public housing programs and helps formulate policy on homelessness and housing discrimination. As is the case with all cabinet secretaries, Carson needs to be confirmed by the Senate.

Carson had signaled he would be named to the job Wednesday afternoon, posting on Facebook that an announcement about his forthcoming role in the administration.

"After serious discussions with the Trump transition team, I feel that I can make a significant contribution particularly to making our inner cities great for everyone," Carson wrote. "We have much work to do in strengthening every aspect of our nation and ensuring that both our physical infrastructure and our spiritual infrastructure is solid."

Could be protests from LGBT lobbies.

Hey guys let's be like the media and attack everyone for what they say instead of what they have done or stand for.

[Danke]

Depends what kind of prison sex

Are you trying to tell us something about your experience in Texan prisons?

[Danke]

And the Air Force, as a whole, is completely gay.

Speaking from experience?

i was in the officer warrior class, never witnessed it. Perhaps you were in the softer fields like finance, personnel or the worst, intelligence.

[Jan2017]

Maybe, now SNL will have some new material with the HUD Secretary and the new President ?

Hopefully "closet conferences" do not get involved again.

In this case one statement.
