does it make sense for a homosexual to be a nazi (or neo-nazi)?

OK,in some ways I can understand a neo-nazi gay.I live in San Francisco so I realize the stereotypes of gays as seen on television and film are incorrect.Forget"Will and Grace"\nSome white male gays in San Francisco are some of the most racists ,narrow minded,shallow people you could meet.I had a brother who was trangender and worked for an organization that helped trans gender/gay/lesbian poor people.I was informed that the high profile gay men organizations received most of the federal funding to help people infected with HIV/AIDS and kept the money circulating among there peers,other white gay men,when more money could have been trickled down to the poorer organization.Now,the gay white man who owns a house or an apartment,is receiving a source of income and some medical attention is much less of a risk than a gay man of color,homeless,hustling to get money to stay in a hotel room for a night.The funds should have gone to help those most at risk of infecting others instead of those who belonged to the rich white gay man's club.\nThis is not gay bashing,this is the truth.

No, I don't think so. If you are attracted to members of your own sex physically - that makes you homosexual. A transsexual would be - for the sake of the argument - considered to be the sex that they have become. If you're male and attracted to a female (who was born male) then I think you would be a normal heterosexual. Good question!

Anil - or is it Anal? Anyway, I didn't even understand your answer! Man, you need to go to school, dude! At least for a little while, to learn some punctuation and sentence formation!\n\nWe all know people who, even in grade school, were a little 'light in the loafers'. For the most part, these people were born that way. Look, who would CHOOSE a life of confusion, retaliation, persecution, alienation and brutality? Nobody, that's who. I do believe that there is a certain percentage of gay people who revel in the attention. I also believe that a certain amount of people were made gay BY GOD so that so called Christians could learn more about tolerance. It is real easy to differentiate between true Christians and devil worshippers - true Christians are accepting of all of God's gentle-natured creatures, gay or otherwise.

since you have NO clue lets look at some real facts.  \n\nBush is FOR Homosexual Unions, just not Marriage.\nHitler never said at any point its OK to be Jew.\n\nAnd to even ATTEMPT to compare the two shows the ignorance that you have or shear hatred you have toward Republicans which the way I see it is closer to Nazism than Bush.\n\nwestfield: "put things in perspective" you think the disallowing of marriage to gays and wanting ALL JEWS DEAD puts things in PERSPECTIVE?  thats worse than the original statement

"Nazis" are National Socialists. Search accordingly. Also, they don't call themselves "Neo-" anything; this is a media-appointed term. \n\nYou might also want to search under religous groups like the Church of the Piney Woods, or the Christian Identity Movement. I'm not making this up, sadly. There's lots of hate out there to keep an eye on - but you have to know where to look.

I cannot get over the stupidity of those of you who answer thinking that the question is comparing gays to animals.  The writer is merely pointing out that natures considers homosexuality as normal. Animals having that instinct canot be blamed on intellectual choice or mental illness the way antigayists try to portray.  So please if you want to answer the question, try understanding it first.\n\nThat said, most antigayists are homophobic, which really means they are fearful and fear means "what can happen to me? How can thishurt me?  Subconsciously the fear is they themselves may be gay if they allowed themselves to accept it in others.  Why fear that? because then they believe they may be ostracized by their friends, familiy and neighbors and perhaps by their GOD.    Animals, which include humans, by the way....mammal.......there is no intellect. Man is the only mammal withy extensive intellect and reasoning.  If we take that away, tere would be no fear and no ostracism.  There would merely be survival. It is clear that despite homosexual behavior in animals, that is not a concommitant of their extinction ior being endangered , the continue to survive.  In this analysis antigayism is fear based and there is no good reason for it to be wrong.

I am just Wilde about it Oscar. Let me put down my beer stein, Gertrude, and my Alice B. Toklas brownies so I can answer your question. Isn't it queer you should ask? I know nothing of this. I don't believe one's sexuality should include anyone or exclude anyone as far as historical significance is concerned. I don't think gays should be villified or glorified. The only thing that gives me pause is that it raises homophobia to the same level as racism. One cannot choose one's skin color, except for George Hamilton and Michael Jackson.

One of the many reasons I left the Christian Faith.  Damn women oppressing Nazis!\nEDIT_THIS IS WHAT TICKS ME OFF!  In one breath most Christians will tell you that being gay is an abomination, and in the next, they decide they don't want this one to apply.  You can't have it both ways.  Either you follow the Bible or you don't.  This is why people call Christians lying hypocrites.

I think yes, but not because they are innately immune, but rather, because they have motivation to investigate their religion more deeply if their background is one of the anti-gay religions.  If you are told that your nature is evil, you have reason to investigate whether or not that claim is true, whereas straights don't have as much motivation.  \n\nEven though there are plenty of promiscuous religious straights, there is not the same level of condemnation of that as there is of being gay.  There is a religious double standard that says heterosexual promiscuity is simply a series of failures, whereas homosexual "sins" are a lifestyle of rebellion.  ...makes no sense.

yeah, he must be talking about the swastika.  well, it was originally a solar symbol that was seen as something quite fortunate.  however, being perverted by the nazis, i feel it's been tainted.  now, don't be afraid when you see this symbol used in ancient lands, for their useage preceeded the nazi's blasphemous and atrocious acts.\n\ni found a nice site for you regarding that symbol.  http://history1900s.about.com/cs/swastika/a/swastikahistory.htm  i haven't gone through the whole site, but as far as i can tell, it is NOT of a racist nature.

Most likely you are making a sick joke. Just in case you are serious. Even in Nazi Germany only a small percentage of German's were Nazis. Many opposed the Nazis and some even paid for this with thier lives. In modern Germany less than %.01 of the people are Neo-Nazis. You will find higher concentrations of Nazis in the US, Brazil, UK and Argintinia among other places than in Germany.

the roots of the nazi party would be a reason. I've never heard of this though.

I don't see Nazis as a people or nation .Nazi is a political-religion ,or an idea.People were angry with Germany because everyone knew what the Nazis wanted and believed in yet still accepted it.There were and are Nazis in almost every country.Like biggotry itself being a Nazi is a state of mind and a belief system(although really screwed up)

If we look to the current government in Germany, we see a something amazing taking place.  The Neo-Nazi political structure is gaining more ground with every election that takes place.  The last time I heard, the German political arena had 10% of its representatives under the Neo-Nazi party.  Why is this taking place, this day in age in Germany?  One answer, the people know that the Neo-Nazis in power will work to pass harder sanctions against the large influx of Middle Eastern immigrants coming into the Country.  These middle easterners are seen as a threat for increased chance of terrorism to take hold and shatter their way of life.  So, I guess if you are German, and afraid of losing a grip on your way of life the answer would be to join and support the Neo-Nazi party.\n\nHowever, in America, the idea of being a "Nazi" is nothing more than a representation of the ignorance within.  People who "claim" to be Nazi are just angry punks, wearing combat boots, beating up people who are "different" from them, but who don't wear the fancy robes that the Klan wear. \n\nIn both cases listed above, I think if you are a scared individual who still believes that people should be divided into different "races", and that you are in some way (insert laugh here) superior to those other "races" then by all means get yourself a pair of combat boots and call yourself a Nazi....

Go with how you feel. Are heterosexuals that way because of a choice they made, I don't think so. That would be the same for homosexuals, I'm sure, not a choice, but something "inbuilt" from birth.

Interesting article indeed. I do agree with you in the sense that it is not a choice- it is only explainable by they way a person FEELS or thinks, not by the way he WANTS to think. I hate people who hate people with different sexual orientations- they dont have a right to judge people by their feelings and preferences, although i dont have a gay/lesbian friend in person.

Why did you ask that question?  I am sure you know of the heritage of the great Tottenham Hotspur and the contempt that any far right especially Nazi behaviour would be considered.  I find the idea offensive!
