We still don&amp;#39;t understand what these anti-gay Christians think gays become gays for-- the gay gene?! It seems to mock the very existence of this gene, while also casting the villainous seducer as a man who is convinced others &amp;quot;can learn&amp;quot; to get boners for men.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It will never cease to confound us that homophobes are convinced gayness is a choice. Yes, because the idea of getting lynched or beaten or relegated to the occasional &amp;quot;gay bar&amp;quot; to meet people, and having to keep their true sexual identity secret from most of the world sounds way better than what we&amp;#39;re going through...&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Thanks to Good As You (note the acronym!) for &lt;a href="http://www.goodasyou.org/good_as_you/2008/03/video-two-balls.html" target="_blank"&gt;the link&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.nerve.com/CS/aggbug.aspx?PostID=78104" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/gay/default.aspx">gay</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/video+of+the+day/default.aspx">video of the day</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/vod/default.aspx">vod</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/sex/default.aspx">sex</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/god/default.aspx">god</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/Christian/default.aspx">Christian</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/boys+don_2700_t+cry/default.aspx">boys don't cry</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/gangbang/default.aspx">gangbang</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/hillary+swank/default.aspx">hillary swank</category></item></channel></rss>
