There's No Sex Like Gay Sex

"Gay" sex is morally good and is as "wonderful" as heterosexual relations, according to Chai Feldblum, President Obama's nominee to become commissioner for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

"Gay sex is morally good," she said. "Now you may think that might be a little crazy to go out there and say gay sex is good. But think a second. Society definitely believes that heterosexual sex is good. Right. Heterosexual sex within a certain framework – marriage – I mean, you can't get more dewy-eyed and romantic in this society about how wonderful that is."


"Morally good" according to what moral framework? Certainly not the Judeo - Christian worldview upon which the U.S.A. is founded. I'd be interested in hearing an explication of how she reached this bizarre, aberrant conclusion -- especially the part where she extols the virtues of behavior that makes one more susceptible to disease and a subsequent truncated lifespan.


Continued Feldblum: "If you're not being cynical for the moment, I think that does reflect a correct understanding that sex is often a basic building block for intimacy and that intimacy and connections within couples and within families are integral building blocks for a healthy society."


She's admitting that sex has a moral component. The question is determining where the line must be drawn between moral virtue and moral decrepitude. I wonder if she sees sexual relations between adults and children as wholesome, or relations between humans and animals? If "intimacy" and "connections" are taking place in such relationships, upon what basis would one condemn them, utilizing her logic?


She is co-director of Workplace Flexibility 2010, which she described at the UCLA symposium as a homosexual rights group that aimed to change "the American workplace and revolutionize social mores."


"Revolutionizing social mores." Yes, that's what we need in abundance. Because it's worked so well elsewhere.


"This is a war that needs to be fought, and it's not a war overseas where we are killing people in the name of liberating them. It is a war right here at home where we need to convince people that morality demands full equality for gay people," she said at the symposium.


And by "equality," she means "bestowing special rights upon a persecuted minority." In no sense is this synonymous to treating someone as an equal.
