Homosexuality

Posted by Jason on January 31, 2000 at 00:09:14:

I really wanted to direct this question to Tiggy, but I guess I'll just post it generally for the hell of it.

In a post, Tigs, you said you wouldn't want to "condone" homosexuality by commenting on it. From this I assume that you regard homosexuality as "wrong." Now, to keep this from becoming a flame session, let's just collect a little data (since I'm a Five and hate conflict and only want more data anyway).

Here's the data I'm interested in:

Type: (5w4)
Own sexual orientation: (heterosexual)
Stance on homosexuality: (couldn't care less one way or another)
Reason for position: (don't care what others do as long as it doesn't directly impact my life in some direct way)

Those are my answers...I'm curious as to whether there's any correlation as to type and what could be considered as conservatism/liberalism. Here's why I'm wondering - most of the 7's I know tend to be pretty much amoral, as are the 5's. Sort of a mixed bag amongst the 1's, 6's, and 8's...3's and 2's I know are also pretty "laissez faire." But, since I know only a few people I've identified as any type, I'm wondering how big of a factor cultural programming is, and how big the "personality type" factor is. From the drug question on the Four Board it seems to me that cultural programming is the bigger factor when it comes to these questions...how do others feel on this question?
