One could even argue that guys like Bladesman87 attack Wil for his semantics, because they are fighting a losing battle on the ground of convincing arguments.
Wil probably isn´t going to die on that hill this time

My basic point has been: The homosexual community was sexual reckless before the 80s, then HIV was discovered and things have normalized since then. The radical christian site's numbers weren't even wrong! They were "normal" for 1970s SF.
Look up my recent posts in the LGBTQ thread and the amount of <removed> tags by chezlaw
You may think my posting is fine, but chezlaw had a deviating opinion (I admit to making a very controversial post in this thread though).
I don´t disagree with your basic point and have already known your position by reading your posts in this thread. But don´t you think that variables like:
-the rise of apps like Grindr, which enable easy hook-ups
-increasingly sexualized advertising
-increased acceptance of homosexuality
-specific gay nightclubs (unthinkable 100 years ago)
-gay parties
-the outing of gay celebrities (billionaire Peter Thiel comes to my mind)
...
and so on have increased the amount of sexual encounters homosexual people have by a magnitude? In addition to the other arguments by juan valdez and my argument of homosexuals having way more "side-action" than heterosexual people in relationships.
