There ought to be a limit to the amount of freedom we give an indivdual in society. In most cases, one defining point of a utopia is the freedom level, similarly, the development index (if very accurate) should also take into account the political and social freedom of a person in the country. However, how far is too far? Freedom is abuse, and abuse is danger. At what cost would we allow a man to chose his own path, knowing his choice might have a severe effect on society at large.
Through the years, evolution has played an important role in development to today. It is not human evolution or darwinism I'm talking about though. Its the evolution of ideals, thoughts, culture and perception. It was not long ago where transexuals were frowned upon and were looked down at. Today, a man can freely change his sex and still be proud of it, all in the name of the person's rights or freedom. We keep pushing the boundries of freedom limited to us on society. Yesterday's sins are today's hip icons. The world says, its ok, be gay. I say, screw you and keep to what nature has meant for you. Sure, its his freedom to chose his sexual preference? Is it? So our society would allow a man to have sex with a man (which has never been seen before in mother nature) and then says its fine, its your right, everyman has his right. I don't know how far we should go in defining boundries. Once we accept gays, gays want to marry, and then adopt children, and raise kids. There is no end, the more we give in, the worst the situation will become. Honestly, would you want your kids to go to school and sit beside a guy who has no mother but two fathers? Its his right, but can we stop giving a person so much rights because you and I know most of the time, your decisions aren't informed ones and is not what's best for yourself. This is a problematic start to the twenty first century. Its all in the name of freedom.
Transexuals now stand today amongst us. They're the guy selling you cinema tickets. The woman behind the counter at the local convienence stall. The taxi driver who looks like he is a guy. Or is he? Today, transexual surgery is so successful (in a medical sense) that even doctors might not be able to tell between a real thing or a sex changed person. This is what we have given ourselves, the freedom to decide your own sex. Don't like being a guy? No problem, just change your sex to a woman. Hate those monthly menstrual cycles? No problem, you can always change back. So this is it? We are now giving them a choice to chose if they want to be a girl or a guy?

Which part says liberty to chose your sex?
Somethings in life you can chose, like your school, your friends, your degree major, your wife.
But sex? We are allowing a screwed up 16 year old drop out son-of-a-bitch to chose to become a cheerleader? He sure would know what's best for himself.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not against people being rebels against an African dictator, your right is to live in the country, fight for that. But why must we allow our children and our children's children to go through a world where female and male is subjective, where even your gender is fluid.

If this is the price of freedom, I don't want anymore freedom.

you are talking as if gays and lesbians are as common as you and me. its isin't its just that they are comming out of the box now. Besides, I don't want to argue with you. I just want to reinstate one point. They are also homosaipiens and have as much rights as you do? What if your child was gay? Send him to IMH?
i think sexual preference is a PREFRENCE. so u can chose. i don't like the idea of embracing gays to see them fall.
this is going to be contraversial
It is not controversial. You are conservative, we are liberal. Theres no use fighting. I respect your ideals, no matter how religious they may be and I, in return, expect you to respect ours.
which no trying to pass laws which make being homos or bi a wrong thing, cause then you'd be crossing the line and ACTUALLY not respecting the decisions and the PREFERENCES of the gay community as a whole. Savvy?
