Neither are men and women equal. Neither is one LARP'ing as the other culturally valuable, it in fact cheapens both.

Disabled people have a lower output to spciety, so anti-disabled movement when?
Mardla wrote:For my part, I continue to grow increasingly bored of the notion of equality as something necessary or even desirable. Equality is nothing but a hatred of what is beautiful, grand, magnificent, ancient. Equality hates all disparity in these. No culture is possible or created by equality, period. There is also nothing meaningful or desirable about universal freedom. Freedom is authority, authority is freedom. Freedom starts with authority over oneself, moral restraint, dignity. People who engage in cocksucker-pride or slut-pride parades have no freedom, and it cannot be conferred on them by their betters.

What are logical arguments for dignity being so necessary? What are logical arguments for restricting LGBT rights?

Why do I feel like the source is "muh feelyngs"?

Material production is not the only output.

There is no such thing as logical values or principles

Homosexuality is indeed a stain on society. It removes traditional values which give people the essence to live. Believe it or not, but sex usually should have more meaning than simply pleasure. Homosexual sex is literally just a poor parody of regular sex.
Also, to those who say I should "mind my own business bigot!!!".

No.

It is constantly made my problem by preening homosexuals who deem it necessary to hold these gaudy events, perform degenerate acts, and push their hedonistic desires into everyone's business. I am no more or less minding my business than the homosexual community is. There is no reason churches should be forced to hold these ceremonies that blatantly go against their beliefs as well as businesses. Homosexuals have made it everyone's problem and then when people disagree with it they play victim.

Homosexuality is nothing more than a fetish. Just like a sick fetish, you should refrain from it, just as procreation should be for only people trying to have children, not people having sex just to have it for fun. The sole reason humans seek romantic relationships is for procreation, this is biology, and anyone with a half of a mind will agree with me.

Before people also start clamoring and throwing fingers my way and stating "well you're not perfect either!"

You're right. But I don't stick my desires in the face of society and then also constantly criticize society for not immediately bending to my will.

Degeneracy is a reactionary meme. And also no. Recreational sex is beautiful and, provided you are careful, perfectly healthy.

What is the logical reasoning for a homosexual relationship? Try, just try to think beyond immediate flesh desires of simply having sex or cherishing someone for yourself.

You'll come to the conclusion that relationships should logically produce offspring then. You lot seem to be too obsessed with how you and only you is affected, and not the greater lot of society. Flesh desire and pleasure is an end in itself and should not be a pursuit in life, because you will be constantly unfulfilled and void. Why do you think we have such high depression rates too?It is because people pursue happiness in life, and are too stupid to realize it is a fleeting emotion. Homosexuality is an example of this trivial pleasure seeking pursuit.

That's not to say pleasure should never be felt, but it should be a by-product of the main pursuits in life, which believe it or not, should be greater than just yourself.

Because it is just for your own pleasure. Once again; try to understand here, pleasure is not something people should pursue because they will find themselves sorely losing at the end. You can't be in constantly pleasure.
