Departing from the normal
Since most people are, in fact, heterosexual, not homosexual, homosexuals are by definition abnormal. Today, it dawned on me that the proper response should be “so what?” or even perhaps “hurray for us gays.”
Think about it. Being abnormal is often a compliment. For instance, most folks would like to be:
Abnormally intelligent
Abnormally good looking
Abnormally wealthy
Abnormally healthy
Abnormally wise
And another thing. It occurs to me that Mormons take a certain pride in being a “peculiar” (which my dictionary tells me means unusual or eccentric: odd) people. One might say LDS folks take abnormal pride in being peculiar.
So if it’s good sometimes to be abnormal, and if being homosexual is one of those good abnormalities, why is it that I’d rather be straight? I think it’s because I want to “baaaaa” with the rest of the sheep.
Your statement "one might say LDS folks take abnormal pride in being peculiar" made me laugh. :) Very clever.
ReplyDeleteI like your take on "abnormal" and I would love to partake in the "abnormally wealthy" these days. :)
happy day!
You are funny, but would your really like to be straight?
ReplyDeleteIn the words of my fellow peers " Thank you Captain Obvious."
ReplyDeleteYou say you want to be straight? Really? I don't think that being straight is any easier than being gay. It is a scary world out there and BTW, cool new picture!! :-)

It's normal to be abnormal.
ReplyDeletelol that is so funny and true. The guys in my ward always fight over who is the best in something or another. None of them just wants to be normal.
