#4 I try to quit smoking but always start back up,I like seeing the smoke come out of my mouth I crave it when I see people smoke in movies
adamacles
Maybe homosexuality is one of nature's way of population control
jmarkson
That ending though...

#3 Just because they think it is the right thing to do doesn't mean it is. Dumbass.
edoburrito
What the fuck do you have against star lord and guardians of the Galaxy!?
SairaEm
LOL well done!
abadgerwithatroubledpastandnothinglefttolose
During bad times in early human history, when resources are scarce, having a gay uncle means more resources for you. See: kin selection.
abadgerwithatroubledpastandnothinglefttolose
Further, "I can't think of x" is not the same as "x doesn't exist."
imgursmyfirstluv
I'm hoping the gay thing is for over population
Nem0c
I feel like your gay for chris pratt... Just saying
Nem0c
And your having trouble coming to terms with it.. Please dont turn into onther Orlando guy
XavierWolf
Its interesting to see which of these congregates the most responses!
XavierWolf
It's
huggerofcats
I mean... I'm not sure how something not having evolutionary purpose = unnatural.
huggerofcats
And what are you implying by calling it unnatural...?
SinisterArtificialIntelligence
I think chris pratt is an overall great guy thus his acting feels more real, thats why he is really likeable.
RedzoneBlitz
I love how everyone is going insane over the homosexuality one but no one gives a shit about suicide one.
RedzoneBlitz
To me that's the one that stands out. But what do I know?
kamkor1
that last one
2shy4you
The.... unpopularity... is overwhelming....
?noredirect
CaptainArminius
I agree with many of your points.
hadhadhadhadhadhad
Smoking is pretty fucking disgusting.
CheesyPoofsWithSomeFavaBeansAndANiceChianti
The gay one is wrong. Differences in individual traits are vary natural and are what make the world full of variety in nature.
ChronologicalMyopia
It's not wrong, it's an opinion. It is however a stupid opinion and he's wrong if he ever acted upon it.
SerLefty
Let's aknowledge that him thinking being gay is un natural since it goes against evolution does not mean there's anything wrong with it.
Chefreign
I have only ever seen Discworld in the YA section. It is definitely written for youths but is so good, it's easily enjoyed by adults.
KnockemD
Actually, there's a fertility factor: there's a connection between gay men and fertile sisters. If we're going strictly evolution here...
smarttarded
Soo should I take this post as serious? Only half of it? Only some?
SoftypantsMcHuggable
You've got a lot of serious topics here but fuck, I really liked Guardians.
WoodenShoe
Yaeh, I notice the womens line up for U. O. Puffin with they legs spread apart.
gnarlygus
well the last one is blatantly not true...
imNotChrisPratt
Not sure which is worse: stance on homosexuality or Guardians of the Galaxy.
imNotChrisPratt
I'm kidding. Clearly it's Guardians of the Galaxy.
sgv1
Oh my god, Chris Pratt! I saw you on the movie once! Oh my gooooodd!!!

MaddMind
There could be an argument to be made that homosexuality could be an evolutionary response to overpopulation.
ChronologicalMyopia
Which would be wrong however, as homosexuals do not pass on their genes to the next generation. There would need to be 1/2
MaddMind
That is not to say your wrong, because obviously sexual preference has nothing to do with evolution. I just like to nitpick terms sometimes.
ChronologicalMyopia
an advantage in homosexuality that would make more children, not less and well... yeah. It's simply a variable in sexual preference.
MaddMind
I thought evolution was about survival of the species not the number of children. Indeed some species need more children but others less.
ChronologicalMyopia
Evolution favors the traits that are more likely to increase your chances of reproduction, as this is inherent in such a system.
ChronologicalMyopia
I was a little loose on that in my wording, but it's not even about survival. Evolution has lead to quite a few dead ends because it has no
ChronologicalMyopia
Fore thought, totally possible for a trait to evolve in a species that seems favorable in the short term but lead to eventual extinction.
Carpol
My thoughts on homosexuality and evolution has always been that it's natures way of population control.
pippindvm
That's called starvation.
slowpoop
That's an antiquated solution to a very modern problem. Most people can eat enough to survive with 711 and Walmart on each corner.
ChronologicalMyopia
No, it's simply a sexual orientation that can happen, the problem with your hypothesis is that homosexuals do not reproduce. 1/2
ChronologicalMyopia
And therefor how can such a trait be passed on to the next generation to help with population control. You're also ignoring the spectrum 2/3
evilterran
"how"? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kin_selection
ChronologicalMyopia
Um. That's not at all the same thing.
ChronologicalMyopia
of sexual preferences that exist. Bisexuals are a completely different thing from homosexuals. More of a slide instead of man/woman/both.
ThePickliestRick
I'd say true homosexuality is just an extreme end, directly opposite to complete heterosexuality, while bi and whatnot fall in lov between.
chunkblaster
I like the part where you prove his point for him
ThePickliestRick
Somewhat. I think they're going for if they can't pass on the gay trait, we'll run out of gay people
ChronologicalMyopia
Yeah, there is no gay gene either, so.....
TINYRIIIIICK
Smoking really does look cool though
YouCapturedMe
Case in point: Boondock Saints
ChristopherColumbus
Ever since I quit smoke, I just don't feel cool anymore, even my friends and family think I'm not cool enough for anything now.. :(
ChronologicalMyopia
I never thought it did. Sure ok cool when say Johnny Depp pretends to smoke, but everyone else is sucking on a stinky, tiny, dirty dick.
iAlwaysUpvoteMN
Johnny Depp actually does smoke.
ChronologicalMyopia
I meant specifically in movies.
saturnscape
You mean he sucks a tiny dirty stinky dick.
Oogibah
I'm not gay but just because theres no evolutionary purpoose doesn't make it unnatural.. animals in the wild practice homosexuality as well
chruser
Actually there is scientific research on how the relatives of homosexuals have a higher chance to bring their children through

CaptainAsshole
Pleasure. Evolutionary necessity. Can prevent suicide/ homicide
Shmiddty
Curbing reproduction helps the species survive in cases of overpopulation.
CaptainAsshole
This person makes a good point
Cuirassier
We are communal animals and don't require everyone to be producing babies. You can be useful evolutionarily and gay at the same time.
CaptainAsshole
Some idiots would be better off not reproducing...
jexxter
Animals in the wild also murder each other and eat each others babies.
thebigniceguy
We also kill other animals and eat their babies
YouCapturedMe
And rape other animals of their species
ListenMorty
Which makes it natural. Everything within nature is natural.
Imthedudeplayinthedudedisguisedasanotherdude
We already murder each other, and I wouldn't find it hard to believe there's some baby eaters out there
SketchNI
Oh shit, I've been found out.
StooperDave
Sounds good. Never had infant meat. is it tender?
jriley154
Today's special sir.....milk fed human
thevortexmaster
Just like some humans
Provel
The murder serves a purpose. Killing others and their offspring helps ensure that your genes get passed on.
Provel
It's also the reason for multiple partners.
imNotChrisPratt
So are you saying that, just maybe, being"unnatural" isn't so bad after all?
NotSoRighteous
Chris Pratt is that you!?!

bublet0011
I draw the line at trans. That isn't "individuality", that's a mental problem. You are what you are, you can't change that fact.
Duke726
Body dismorphia is the proper name for that
zoidburgerandfries
Who gives a shit where you draw the line? It's not even remotely your job to judge or even care. Worry about yourself man.
CaptainAsshole
I draw the line at caring about shit that doesn't effect me
ChronologicalMyopia
I'm not convinced on the mental issue there, and my go to example here is what about hermaphrodites that had their sex assigned at birth?
ThePickliestRick
This is more about the people that have a definitive single gender. They have a 100% functioning penis, but claim they're a woman.
bublet0011
But if you can convince yourself you're something you're simply not, I don't trust that your head's in the right place. (Sorry for"you")
ChronologicalMyopia
They're not hurting anyone by seeking to switch their gender, they are not monsters looking for camouflage, they want to feel like we do.
ThePickliestRick
They do when they scream at you for not psychically knowing their prefered pronouns. (that actually happens.. Not often.. But.. It does)
bublet0011
I'm not saying they're assholes or anything. I just don't think they're completely healthy.
bublet0011
That's different. What I'm saying is if you're born male or female, you can't just change that. Gay is fine, that's just what you want.
LouisZacharias
But there are people who are born with physical features pf both or neither gender.
Cuirassier
But sexuality has proven to be more fluid than you're making it out to be. Sexuality and sex are two different things.
ChronologicalMyopia
Yes, there's no evolutionary purpose for many things. Evolution doesn't get rid of things because they lack purpose, doesn't work like that.
RenDriver
Actually, there is evolutionary purpose. Often gay animals raise young of deceased parents in the animal kingdom since they can't reproduce
Shaga42
Really ? Do you have a source please ?
XooMG
I think people are a bit overconfident claiming to understand the "purpose" or "function" of a behavior or trait in evolution.
chruser
Dude it actually works just like that
PantsAreObsolete
Not always, just because something doesn't have a purpose (anymore) doesn't mean it decreases a chance on survival and thus procreation.
chruser
The system "evolution" gets rid of things that dont serve procreation. Imagine still having a tail like our ancestors did. It wouldnt (1/2)
mostlyimjustlurking
How can gays procreate ?
chruser
By helping their relatives to raise their children which have similar genes. It also may be that being gay is not exactly a 100% (1/2)
chruser
genetic thing. Through history, gay people procreated like heterosexuals but maybe maintained due to their gayness some benefits
chruser
really be "harmful" to us, but every complex element that isnt needed can only cause complications thats why they slowly "de-evolve"
ChronologicalMyopia
Actually it's more likely that either random mutation and/or selective breeding lost us the tail. Didn't matter because we didn't need it.
