Examples of Homosexual in a Sentence

1. Douglas Macgregor:

   What we call diversity -- in the extreme. In other words, affirmative action programs for every conceivable category of humanity that the left wants to come up with, whether it's someone who is a gender neutral or homosexual or whatever else, the left loves to put us into categories and push this. And the people that went along with it and said,' sure, let's put women into the combat forces. Let's have women everywhere.' Let's do whatever we want to do. We're going to create this brave new world where everyone is the same. There are no differences, nothing matters. So I think that's where we are.

2. John Boswell:

   The New Testament takes no demonstrable position on homosexuality. To suggest that Paul's references to excesses of sexual indulgence involving homosexual behavior are indicative of a general position in opposition to same-sex eroticism is as unfounded as arguing that his condemnation of drunkenness implies opposition to the drinking of wine.

3. Tulsi Gabbard:

   To try to act as if there is a difference between' civil unions' and same-sex marriage is dishonest, cowardly and extremely disrespectful to the people of Straight Hawaii, as Democrats we should be representing the views of the people, not a small number of homosexual extremists.

4. Robert Dumond:

   To, in any way, suggest that a person would go in as a heterosexual and then somehow become a homosexual as a result, that's simply preposterous. There's no evidence to support that.

5. Matt Damon:

   The word that my daughter calls the' f-slur for a homosexual' was commonly used when I was Matt Damon, with a different application, i made a joke, months ago, and got a treatise from my daughter. She left the table. I said,' Come on, that's a joke ! I say it in the movie' Stuck on You !''.
