What I choose to believe about it is a form of mental health. I dont kid myself into thinking its normal though. It has become normalized thanks to media, public opinion swaying, still doesnt make it any less abnormal. Besides I dont see it as an equivalent problem to transgenderism. Humanity is going to start playing with the human genome its already happened in China recently. Look out for the free for all. Chicks with dicks is going to look mild in a hundred years.


The cure is self acceptance. Which could mean accepting your own delusions.


I do.



It is fucked up. That’s Peterson’s entire point.
Gotta be honest here. Being gay is inherently harmless. Two gay people can live together and have a positive partnership that doesn't take away from other people or from coexisting as a member of society.

So it concerns me to see you entertaining it as a possible mental illness. I mean I agree it's abnormal, but not all abnormalities are bad or necessarily undesirable or need to be treated.

Evolution/reproduction, for example, is all about mixing genes, genetic mutations, and really just creating something new and different from everything else. Everybody has something different about them from everybody else; it doesn't mean they need to be normalized. Do you get what I mean? And if you don't, then where do you draw the line between mental illness and human variation?
