This thread totally sucking.
More talk of hot lesbians please
Agreed.
I'll start.
So it seems like many more women are willing to go both ways. Is this a result of the greater acceptance of girl on girl activities or is something else going on?

It's such a relief that someone decided to make this about women being sexual objects. I was wondering if JazzFanz had changed.
Agreed.
I'll start.

I bet the increase of dudes are going both ways is bigger than the women are. They, men, watch too much pron and they get used to other men's rods and after some time they go like "What the hell!"
Yep I made the thread sucking again.

On one hand I think you need to lighten up, he was joking.
On the other, there are times and places where women are perfectly happy to be treated as a sexual object. Women typically want to be sexually desired and thought of in a sexual way by those they are attracted to. But go ahead and respect women so much that you're never willing to demean them by satisfying their sexual desires. Sounds like a hoot.
DIDO
Please tell us some science Mr. Algebra. Maybe something you heard from Bill Nye.
I've never understood why anybody makes the issue of others' sexual preference (as long as it is consentual) their own. That is all I have to say.
Since straight sexuality is not "all in the bedroom", expecting LGBT sexuality to remain there is blatant discrimination.

I think you hit the nail on the head.
Women probably are more willing to make the choice to go both ways due to social acceptance.
I ♥ me some Nye. Because I ♥ kids tv science.How funny that you're trying to talk down to me while at the same time taking a shot at one of the more interesting and intelligent scientists alive right now.
Tell me about Nye's great scientific discoveries.Anyhow, what science would you like me to drop on you? Anything specific?
let me define choice
choice vs genetic
Identical Twins.
One gay One straight
which one do you call out for not being true to themselves.
Since you seem sympathetic to homosexual rights let me ask you this.
Can the LGBT community ever win the debate about the morality of their lifestyle with an argument that is based on genetic fatalism?
We wouldn't make the assumption that violence was moral even if we did think people were born violent.
P.S. I did choose to be straight. I'm sure there were a lot of cultural, environmental, personal, and even genetic factors that led me to my decision. Ultimately it was a choice.
It is a basic tenet of human biology, taught in grade schools everywhere: Identical twins come from the same fertilized egg and, thus, share identical genetic profiles.
But according to new research, though identical twins share very similar genes, identical they are not. The discovery opens a new understanding of why two people who hail from the same embryo can differ in phenotype, as biologists refer to a person’s physical manifestation.
The new findings appear in the March issue of The American Journal of Human Genetics, in a study conducted by scientists at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and universities in Sweden and the Netherlands. The scientists examined the genes of 10 pairs of monozygotic, or identical, twins, including 9 pairs in which one twin showed signs of dementia or Parkinson’s disease and the other did not.
It has long been known that identical twins develop differences that result from environment. And in recent years, it has also been shown that some of their differences can spring from unique changes in what are known as epigenetic factors, the chemical markers that attach to genes and affect how they are expressed — in some cases by slowing or shutting the genes off, and in others by increasing their output.
These epigenetic changes — which accumulate over a lifetime and can arise from things like diet and tobacco smoke — have been implicated in the development of cancer and behavioral traits like fearfulness and confidence, among other things. Epigenetic markers vary widely from one person to another, but identical twins were still considered genetically identical because epigenetics influence only the expression of a gene and not the underlying sequence of the gene itself.
“When we started this study, people were expecting that only epigenetics would differ greatly between twins,” said Jan Dumanski, a professor of genetics at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and an author of the study. “But what we found are changes on the genetic level, the DNA sequence itself.”
The specific changes that Dr. Dumanski and his colleagues identified are known as copy number variations, in which a gene exists in multiple copies, or a set of coding letters in DNA is missing. Not known, however, is whether these changes in identical twins occur at the embryonic level, as the twins age or both.
“Copy number variations were discovered only a few years ago, but they are immensely important,” said Dr. Carl Bruder, another author of the study at the university. Certain copy variations have been shown in humans to confer protection against diseases like AIDS, while others are believed to contribute to autism, lupus and other conditions. By studying pairs of identical twins in which one sibling has a disease and the other does not, scientists should be able to identify more easily the genes involved in disease.
John Witte, a professor of genetic epidemiology at the University of California, San Francisco, said the findings were part of a growing focus on genetic changes after the parents’ template had been laid. This and other research, Dr. Witte said, shows “you’ve got a little bit more genetic variation than previously thought.”
In the meantime, a lot of biology textbooks may need updating.
Dr. Dumanski pointed out, for example, that as his study was going to press, the following statement could be found on the Web site of the National Human Genome Research Institute, the group that financed the government project to decode the human genome: “Most of any one person’s DNA, some 99.9 percent, is exactly the same as any other person’s DNA. (Identical twins are the exception, with 100 percent similarity).”
That, we now know, no longer appears to be the case.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Identical twins apparently do not have identical DNA.
what's the problem with look at people as sexual objects?
...For the record, I'm relatively certain this battle has already been won and the ultimate outcome is inevitable. All people fighting against it at this point are doing is creating a record of ignorance that they'll find embarrassing later.
Funnier because it's totally false.
