Many citizens of India have recently called for the repeal of the law that makes homosexuality a crime. Opposition has rejected the prohibition on moral grounds. The stronger objection to prohibiting homosexuality is to deny the claim that lies at its core: that sexual acts between consenting people of the same sex are immoral. Sometimes it is claimed that homosexuality is "unnatural", and even a "perversion of our sexual capacity", which supposedly exists for the purpose of reproduction.

This leads me to my question: Does the fact that homosexual acts cannot lead to reproduction make them immoral? If a form of sexual activity brings satisfaction to those who take part in it, and harms no
one, what can be immoral about it?

I cannot take credit for this thought, most of these words and statements are taken directly from: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2006/oct/21/comment.gayrights I am curious as to how the intellectuals of LiveWire view this topic.

Truly free stuff... And you don't have to refer
friends. Unlike some of those other stupid offers.

No, any more than I believe that it is immoral for some guys/girls to like blondes rather than brunettes. It is just a matter of taste.

Skylerthomas is my love. All mine. You can't have him!!

further more, morality is completely subjective; i think it's morally wrong to have sex before marriage, jimmy down the street doesn't have those morals, why should he be forced to adhere to my morals when what he does has NO affect on me?

anyway, to answer the ACTUAL question; no, i don't believe it's immoral.

Your sexual acts can be judged, on grounds of promiscunity or faithfulness, but sexual orientatin is a biological trait.  It is unlogical to judge its morality.

From an evolutionary standpoint, although the "purpose" of any species may be to reproduce, if an organism is homosexual, then it just won't pass on its genes. There's no inherent "evil" in the acts but people with these characteristics just won't influence the future society in any biological way. There are plenty more humans to reproduce and expand the gene pool so I don't see why people care so much.

In any case, whichever may be the orifice of one's sexual preference, any private act, barring injury or death, between, or among, consenting individuals, should remain purely their prerogative. C'est la vie.
