DiscussionQueer activism hasn't "normalized" homosexuality, it's only made fetishizing it more acceptable.

It's the desire to be different than the norm since so many of these people are afraid of being normal. Since gay rights had to be stapled to left wing movements due to Social Conservatives many decided to adopt it as shield (if you are straight white guy just wear woman's clothes and now you are a victim) or since it was seen against the "establishment" as a relationship it was better than the normal straight relationship.

I wish straight people would understand that it's normal to be gay. Homosexual and heterosexual are just the two sides of the coin of possible monosexual orientations, humans can have (& other sexually dimorphic species). The coin flip is weighted towards heterosexuality because it's weighted towards reproduction but that doesn't mean homosexuality isn't normal or natural, it's just the odds lean towards heterosexuality or bisexuality.

Homosexuality is not a kink or queer or weird or gross, it's just being exclusively same-sex attracted, not opposite-sex attracted.

Yeah hopefully social trends will get bored of fetishizing homosexual relationships. I mean it can't last forever right lol? Has to be something new that will be hot and in vogue that will come out so that eventually gay/lesbians/bisexuals can just fade into the background which outside of narcissists I think most desire.
