I just need to look at the real world and talk with most people and it would certainly be viewed as wrong and most kids at school would be bullied for it with bad consequences.

That's a very dubious yardstick with which to measure what's appropriate.
 
I also said fatherly input, perhaps the masculinity bit was a bit silly. No woman can ever teach a child about how life is for a man.

All men's experiences of life as a man are different. What is a father supposed to teach a child about life as a man? That he should drink 20 pints a night and bang randoms? That he should go to church and study the Bible and pray? That he should work away from home? That he should work a 60 hour week? That he should sit on his arse claiming disability allowance?
 
And like with many things that were once taboo and now the norm, the changes need to happen, and acceptance comes with time.

It used to ridiculous for a woman to have a career or be the breadwinner in a household 100 years ago. The world changes, times move on.

The world does change, but sometimes this change is for the bad.

Homosexual parents are only seen as acceptable in western society and in that only certain parts of it.

In the poorer parts of the world it is unheard off, what if the economy collapses do you think we will still progress "socially" the way we are doing now?

I've never been that close with my dad, I'm not interested in sports, never had any sort of manly chats or the like with him.

I turned out fine, if a bit effeminate, but I don't think that's a bad thing, better than being a Neanderthal.

Theres a few members with personal grudges against me, one insulted my mom so i did the same to him and one accused me of lying over something very serious.

My Dad taught me one thing....

How to duck.

That's a pretty poor argument.

The Western world has loads of things that the poor countries don't, should we just stop all of that and conform to the lowest common denominator?

It's the real world isn't that the most appropriate way to measure it not some "lovely" idealistic heaven which people use to measure whats appropriate..

No. If that were the case we would have never progressed, be it in arts, science, or anything else.

Every father teaches his child different things, but a man can relate to another man. A man cannot relate to a woman on many issues.

I wouldn't say I was particularly that close with my dad either but he's always been there for me no matter whats happened and when ive been stuck or dire need ive asked him for help.

I really dont think a woman can do it the same way a dad can.

No im not saying that, we should strive to be the best as always but as history has shown us sometimes we fail and it all comes stumbling down. And as much as we advance in science and whatever, human nature is a very different thing.

You have a point but science and the like is different then acceptance of homosexuality and what it brings. The former helps us advance as a society and makes us more stronger then our enemies, the latter is a social thing.

You attribute a stereotype to gender and their interaction with each other and then attempt to use this stereotype as evidence of a false proposition.

People relate to people, gender has little to do with it. If you had read the studies mentioned you would know this.
 
There's a lot of men I have a great deal of trouble relating to.



With the greatest respect... Speak for yourself.

Yeah but usually many of us can relate to our fathers or a fatherly figure. Oh come on, your saying you relate to women more then you do to men.

You must be off your rocker if you think you can relate more to a woman then a man, don't care what study you show me. I don't need to read studies, experience and common sense come before such studies.
