Predetermination.


What an idea!
Obviously in NZ we could add: tranvestite; transgender; bondage and discipliner or recipient thereof; of indefineable sexual orientation or closeted sexuality; philanderer; rude gesturer; poor impulse control in respect to profanities and physical assault; drug abuser; grandiosity; confabulator and/or fabricator; bad at mathematics; bad recollection; of limited vocabulary; grammatically wanting; a bad speller; logically deficient; expedient raver; law breaker; dole bludger ... and this solely looking at the composition of our politicians ... and not even an exhaustive list.
If these proclivities are defined at birth, surely you would expect them to be better at it by adult hood ... You've got to love those French ... french fries, french kisses,made the all blacks look like polynesian maidens, exorcets to Argentina, Rainbow Warrior, perhaps the most pouting and romantic language in the world ... when they say or do something people notice, not often 'petit pain,' rather major pain.

One of the notable about this campaign, is that it is government funded. Gay rights groups no longer need to spend as much money promoting their ideas.

The idea that homosexuality is genetic, I think would only apply to a small percentage of gays. A larger percentage are surely being shaped by social changes, traumatic events, and other factors.

PS: I liked your tirade about the French (esp the petit pain line), but the advertisement is Italian.

caio.

Aye, so right ... sometimes one only sees what is in the head at the time ... & it was French, not Italian.
Re. nature/nurture, you probably attribute more to the former than I ... which makes it interesting, and as you say GVT funded sexual engineering.
