Normally, my philosophy regarding gay sheep is to live and let live. Sure, they can go out and party, participate in sheep pride parades, and maintain successful gossip blogs. But when it comes time to research on curing gay sheep I say that the price to be paid is small. This thought came to mind when reading the Times article that talks about recent science experiments in which scientists are manipulating hormones to see if they can “straighten out” the gay sheep.
(Note: How do they figure out if sheep are no longer gay? Do they put them in a video room and see which DVD’s they decide to watch? Are they straight when they stop watching Brokeback Mountain and Barbra Streisand concerts? What do they watch instead? The Guns of Navarone? The Dirty Dozen?)
Like I said, a couple of straight sheep high fiving each other and watching football is a small price to pay in the name of science and research. in fact, this research on gay sheep could one day lead us to a cure for Parkinsons Disease:An illness which has ravaged one of our favorite actors, Michael J. Fox. I’m sure that Michael would come out in favor of research on gay sheep, or he would if he could stop wiggling long enough to pay attention.
That’s why I’m completely in favor of this project. Research on Gay Sheep may lead to wonderful, amazing, miraculous cures in the future.
Yes, there are those gay activitsts with their Right To Gay agendas, but these people are being very shortsighted and, frankly, heterophobic. Is it wrong to want to cure Parkinson’s disease? Wrong to want to find the cure for cancer, or other deadly diseaseases which ravage our nation and leave behind a swath of pain, terror, and destruction larger than Hurricane Katrina or a visit from the Religion of Peace?
And what would be the price?
That Sam the Sheep likes Shirley and not Steve?
That fewer Sheep Earings are sold?
That fewer people will appreciate the comedy stylings of Rosie O’ Donnell?
Maybe we could reach an understanding with the gay community. Gay sheep turned straight would all have the option of undergoing Sheep Sex Change Operations. I don’t know. I don’t have all the answers. I’m just one man who doesn’t always take his medication.
Anyway, this is a good experiment and deserves our support!
I have not heard of gay sheep before. I would like the research this. I just can’t think up any search terms that would be safe in google.
So how would this affect liberal homosexual sheep? I can’t see it turning them into intelligent self-grooming omnivores.
Frank, I was under the impression that Rosie was a gay cow! Now I find that she’s a ram? Ewe gotta be kidding!
do deaf people want deaf children??
it would seem some do
hearing children do not fit into their parent’s culture
Homosexuals are against curing diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, based solely on their arcane, bigoted, fairytale religious views. Homosexuals hate Michael J. Fox.
Deaf is not a culture. It is a birth defect. Whoever the hell thinks something genetically inherited, or thrust upon you as tragic happenstance is a culture should swiftly join the culture of the departed.
This is why I can use terms like gay culture, because that is no more genetic that the style of shoes on your feet or the trousers you are wearing.
First, Michael J. Fox has spoken!
Second, Desert Elephant, don’t you think that a group of deaf people that associate together would have a distinctly different culture than people that are not deaf? For instance, there is a local School For the Deaf. Doesn’t it stand to reason that those kids would have a different set of customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits as well as different characteristic features of everyday existence than those children with hearing?
Now, as to whether or not deaf parents want deaf children, I have no clue, nor do I see why it matters. I would imagine some deaf parents want deaf children, and others want children with hearing.
What any of this has to do with gay sheep, I have no idea. I would imagine if there were ever a procedure that could determine whether or not children were born deaf, the Federal Government would prohibit making deaf children.
Why are scientists working on this when they could be pouring their efforts into more worthy endeavors. Things such as the Anti Butt Monkey Powder (last seen advertised at Spacemonkey’s) (Coincidence? I think not.)
Forget the debating. Where do i get the lesbian sheep porn?
Thanks for making that Lesbo Sheep porn request, DohXs. I didn’t want to be the only one to ask…
What sounds does one hear in the gay barnyard? “Shear me! Shear me! Cover me with lanolin!” Sounds like an average city street in Riyadh or Cairo.
Isn’t “gay culture” a type of fungal infection?
I figure that when a creature is “gay” it is natures way of taking those particular genes out of the pool. Making them “ungay” is just defeating the purpose.
Besides any animal that has had as many inter-species encounters as sheep are said to have had, deserve to be left in peace (or in pieces with a nice mint jelly and spiced apples)
