Is homosexuality caused by parasites?

[ImaginaryFiction]

I saw this post on Twitter I found to be a very interesting hypothesis.

First off yeah "it's a dumb Twitter post it doesn't make it real". Well source aside, the message is still very real and the examples given are actually true.

So it does pose a very interesting question. Are parasites or outside influences the cause of homosexuality?

I hadn't ever made it to the conclusion he did, I always stopped short. But I never believed homosexuality is "normal" or "a part of nature". I always assumed it was a form of mental illness.

No species exists to not recreate itself. That's the very fundamental reason everything on earth that's living exists because all life exists to create more of itself, it didn't there would be no life on earth.

Homosexuality as a natural thing is a lie because homosexuals do not create more of themselves. Homosexuality defies the very concept of life. Homosexuals by their very nature seek to end their lineage and make themselves extinct.

It was cooties all along. I just knew it.

I'm not sure if it's just my computer, but the NIH link doesn't seem to work. I wouldn't trust any scientific claim that isn't backed up by science.

 

[Lost4words]

I had a bad parasite infestation in my tummy when i was very young......

The vet soon cleared it for me though.

I think the NIH ink is supposed to be this: Intestinal parasitic infections in homosexual men: prevalence, symptoms and factors in transmission - PubMed

The paper seems to be studying some intestinal parasites that can be transmitted sexually. The authors mention hygiene practices that reduced the transmission rate.

It's important to be careful about the direction of cause-effect links. In general, STDs are more common in sexually-active people than in celibate people, but I don't think anyone hypothesizes that gonorrhea causes heterosexual attraction.


The last paragraph in the tweet, about Ivermectin changing someone's sexual orientation, is bizarre, but I'm glad the guy is free of parasites now.

absurd theory

 

[Meranda]

I'll admit, the overall idea does seem a bit out-there and far-fetched. However, I do believe that a strong contributing factor to homosexuality is outside influences (ex: certain traumas), and may be some kind of mental illness.

Sounds a little extreme... I guess condoms do that too?

Interesting article but not sure I trust "an antecdotal case" about "a family member" from an Anonymous poster.
People on the internet lie to support their agendas. And they use scary shock things like brain washing intestinal parasites to do it.

For myself, I've often wondered if the hormones given to cows to produce milk constantly might be the source of a lot of it,
adjusting the gender preferences of some of the children drinking it as they are growing up or in utero. My personal suspicion.

Population increases, needs more food supply, hormones it's food supply to increase it's food supply... and some % of the population ingests the hormoned food supply and gender preferences are altered (thereby further limiting the population). Homosexuality is one way a population "puts the breaks on". War is another.

Of course, homosexuality like war pre-dates hormoned food supplies, but we seem to be having an explosion of it this century. Maybe that's because it is more culturally accepted, but there could be other factors too like the abundance of hormones in 20th and 21st century food supplies.

Just my 2 cents suspicion, and worth nothing more.

I agree. I think it's a different combinations of factors. That's just my opinion, though.

Friend of mine said every gay person the Lord inspired him to get to know.. was SA'd by a male in childhood.

As for parasites, correlation and causation is a problem but im quite confident no one was opposed to ivermectin due to curing the gays.

The reason it was opposed is because without declaring the vaccine was the only authorized emergency treatment protocol, it would not be immune from lawsuits

I don't want to ramble on, but this doesn't surprise me.

I have plenty of experience in the gay community and know many have multiple partners or cheat...if they have an unknown sex related infection- I'm not shocked.

I don't think that's the case. It might be related to mental illness or not having a father growing up, having an overbearing mother. Not all homosexuals were abused.

you know if you read what i wrote... you would find what i said was quite clear.

every gay person the Lord inspired my friend to talk to was SA'd in childhood by a male.

My mistake.

That’s very sad.

 

[AJHnh]

I don’t think so. I think the simplest answer and makes sense do to the number of homosexuals in the world is they just are created this way. I say that because the numbers and locations of gays make it hard to believe it’s environmental etc.

Some people are born tall, short, good looking, etc so why not gay-doesn’t mitigate the fact they have unique challenges etc but I think it is the most common sense answer

When I've had the time to talk a lot to gay men and women I always notice a very unbalanced childhood. Not to say that an unbalanced childhood will always result in homosexuality. But the history is often there. It's almost always there to the point where if it's not it just seems they're either concealing some trauma or they don't feel comfortable talking about it. The main factor I notice is a lack of a good father figure. That may not be the father's fault of course. Some kids just grow up to hate/resent their parents, especially the father. Often the kids find it difficult to communicate their thoughts so this is never discussed growing up and things just get worse and worse in the child's mind and the parents have no idea because the child makes it seem like everything's just fine. When someone refuses to communicate your ability to guide them is very limited.

As for parasites I'd say there's a link because gay people are so promiscuous, far more than straight people. That's the likely cause for high parasitic infection in the gay community. Just like why did AIDS spread so fast in the gay male community when it first came out: Anal sex was a very efficient means of transmission, far more than vaginal sex or oral sex. So if someone is often doing something that enables an infection to transmit to another the likelihood of them getting infected or spreading something is higher.
Also keep in mind that so many of us have parasites. We just don't test for them very well or very often. Probably most of us have parasites. Long water fasts should be an excellent method of parasite eradication. Or can they live without any food being digested for more than 40 days? I heard that papaya seeds (kind of a robust but bitter taste) help to kill off parasites. Other foods as well though I can't remember now. Raw garlic perhaps? Raw red onions? Galangha is another strong natural spice though it's hard to find fresh. Powdered spices are ridiculous; don't bother. Always eat whole/freshly ground and raw.

Call it a mental imbalance. I think many things cause people to lean towards the same sex. Often it's a apprehension of the opposite sex that emerges in high school and then it builds on itself. We've all experienced episodes where we did something then afterwards wonder why we did that as it didn't seem to be entirely rational at the time. And remember that nobody anywhere is 100% mentally balanced. We all have our limitations.

But what we should take away from all this is there is always hope. But accepting the child's sexual aberration is just giving them the green light to continue so that is not Godly behavior at all on the part of the parents. Parents are in a tough position to love their children unconditionally but say no to something their child feels is best for him/her even though they aren't old enough to be able to make those decisions. A generation gap can hugely make this worse as the child doesn't expect their parents to understand their problems so they don't even open up to them.

It gets even more vexing if the child is emotionally volatile, prone to making irrational decisions. Now that child is a danger to themselves. Once they leave the home with no means of support they become prey to all the evil of the streets where few care if you live or die. But if the child refuses to respect the parents and parades around the town/city/neighborhood in full drag, what should the parents do? When children rebel, especially with our laws seemingly encouraging it, parents feel trapped. One tactic may be to just explain the situation as a mental breakdown but that will be viewed as being sexually intolerant in our leftist culture. Makes you want to move out into the wilderness where you can actually control your own family. That brings up another point. I believe getting out in nature is very good for our psyche. Most everyone feels more at peace when away from urban sprawl and it's influences. And how often do you hear of gay communities out in the wilderness? I've never heard of one in my entire life. Maybe dragging the kid out of the city to a place so isolated they just cannot leave and letting them experience the peace and serenity of nature as God made it would help them rebalance their mind. That might be the best
conversion therapy ever. Who hates nature??? It is God's handiwork after all. From Genesis 2:15 KJV
And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
"dress it and keep it" says so much. Is that our mission in a perfect world? We are dressing/maintaining/supporting God's creation and the "keeping it" part shows were are aiming into the future. So what we do today impacts our future. We'll always make better decisions if we focus on the future.

I wonder how healing it would be to give gay leaning children tasks/responsibilities on an outpost type region where they control what is going on, so they see the fruits of their labor. I suspect it might have a very positive effect on them. Just getting them away from all the influences of their city gay friends (because gay people have a LOT of gay alliances that support them no matter how ludicrous their sexual decisions are with a "It's all right!") their mind might reset back to it's natural state. It certainly couldn't have much of a negative effect. Unless they have been sexually abused at a summer camp in the past of course.

That brings up another thing you may notice talking to gay people. As previous sexual abuse has long been used to explain gay behavior many gay people will refuse to admit it happened because they don't want there to be a reason for their current sexual proclivity. They want it to be natural, beyond their control, so they don't have to be responsible for it and don't have to make changes. After all none of us likes change right?

Choice. Choice, my friend. We all have free will, and we either choose Jesus, or we don't. Simply.
I say this as someone who fervently believes the world has been warped and abused by satan, and he would like nothing more than to convince us it is something beyond our control when we choose to sin.
Spiritual parasites? Maybe. Physical illness? Also maybe, but....I have a heart disorder...I faint, it gives me headaches. Do I claim the heart disorder is responsible for my problems? No. Someone with homosexual urges is not required to act on them, just as a person with heterosexual desires is not required to act on them. My mom's great uncle was celibate and unmarried all 109 years of his life. He walked with Jesus.
I think people forget a little word called "celibacy". No, not "a-sexual". A-sexual creatures can reproduce without a mate. Can humans? No. So....celibate meaning not participating in the act of intercourse in any form or fashion. Now, would it be uncomfortable to live without giving in to our carnal urges? Sure! That's where marriage comes in. It's fornication, otherwise. But does God outline the sexual things that are right and wrong? Yes. Male+Female=Baby=Family. That is the sexual relationship that God promotes, so it's the only one I can support personally.
Maybe so many people have been defiled by the world and they devalue themselves, or they doubt they won't get used again. I don't know.
Many homosexual individuals I've met were "confused" because of something in their past that they didn't ask for, couldn't help, when they couldn't even understand or make their own choices. It's unfortunate, but major counseling is needed, which so many people don't want to go through.
We can pray. That's all I know to do sometimes.
