That's the thing about the progressive metastasizing of perversion, whenever you set a limit and say, "here, but no further" it will crash through your barrier and march on without you.
Are you suggesting that people with liberal/progressive views not be able to express their views and fight for policy points that they feel creates a better society?
I'm suggesting that perversion regresses a society, bringing it to its knees. Society is made great through productivity, not the sins of idle hands.
I would question your connection between homosexuality and "idle hands".
Living the homosexual high life, drugs, partying, booze, multiple partners, etc is self destructive. People earn a good living, buy a home, raise a family, save for retirement, and contribute to society through the industry of their hands. The old saying is correct, idle hands are the Devil's workshop.
And partying, drugs, booze, multiple partners ect, are all part of single life for many straights as well.
But if you want totalk about homosexuality being the danger to society, and then talk about idle hands destroying society, you need to link the two. With homosexuals being a minor part of the population, blaming them for the lack of industry is simply dishonest. And many, many homosexuals earn a good living, buy homes, save for retirement, contribute to society through their careers, and even raise families.
Many, many? How many? Because you're right that when heterosexuals live the high life, the results are just as disasterous, but most don't. The same can't be said of homosexuals.
Higher Risk of Mental Health Problems for Homosexuals

Homosexual people tend to experience more mental health problems than heterosexual people, research indicates. Discrimination may contribute to the higher risk, believes lead researcher Dr. Apu Chakraborty of University College London, UK.
His team looked at rates of mental disorder among 7,403 adults living in the UK, whose details were obtained from the Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey 2007.
Rates of depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, phobia, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and alcohol and drug dependence were significantly higher in homosexual respondents.
Four percent had a depressive episode in the last week, compared to two percent of heterosexual people. The rate of alcohol dependence was ten percent versus five percent, and for self-harming it was nine percent versus five percent.
The proportion of homosexual people who described themselves as being fairly or very happy was 30 percent, versus 40 percent for heterosexual people.
Dr. Chakraborty believes the findings are “very worrying.” He said, “This study is the first time the mental health and
well-being of gay, lesbian and bisexual people has been examined in a random sample of the population.
“Our study confirms earlier work carried out in the UK, USA and Holland which suggests that
non-heterosexual people are at higher risk of mental disorder, suicidal ideation, substance misuse and self-harm than heterosexual people.”
He stated that, although the level of discrimination was low, it was still significantly higher than against heterosexual people. This “lends support to the idea that people who feel discriminated against experience social stressors, which in turn increases their risk of experiencing mental health problems,” he says.
These higher levels of psychiatric problems in homosexual people call for greater efforts at preventing the issues arising, Dr. Chakraborty adds.
In the Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey, participants chosen to be representative of the UK population gave information on neurotic symptoms,
common mental disorders, probable psychosis, suicidal thoughts, and alcohol and drug use, as well as aspects of sexual identity and perceived discrimination.
