And now you've lied about it.

Nice.
I didn't change it, I quantified it.

It's still the same post but with a bit nailed onto it.

You're on a hiding to nothing here.

Perversion. Perverted. Pervert.

If splitting them up and trying to project some kind of significance to this is part of a 'defence' of your position, then you are simply going to flounder here (again).

In other words you did change it.

Changing your post after somebody has responded to it is bad form.

Read it again. Does it say 'perverted' or 'perversion'?
Perhaps I have misread the thread title.

That's precisely the kind of indoctrination we're talking about.

What indoctrination? Sorry to ask for sensitivity. How about I start up a thread entitled "Depression: should they just get over themselves?"

Perversion :-

any of various means of obtaining sexual gratification that are generally regarded as being abnormal.

Perverted :-

turned from what is right; wicked; misguided; distorted.

Two very different definitions and connotations.

The thread is a continuation from gay indoctrination thread.

It is an attempt to show how perceived information can be very different
from the actual content of information.

For example the title of this thread seems very offensive but may very well
be a perfectly valid question.

No. You're offering selective/incomplete definitions now. You're just setting out to pull people's legs here, yes?

I don't know, that's what I'm asking.

Those definitions look pretty spot on to me.

Why don't you offer something up from the murky waters?

Perverts engage in perverted acts of perversion. This, as everyone here knows, is what you think - and in terms of English language, it's watertight. However, you - of course - are trying to wrap your stance on this up in some semblence of contrived decency by taking pervert, perversion and perverted, and defining them in some highly narrow fashion, and posing as a 'scientist' of some kind.

Transparent. Boring.

I'm just asking a question and no, I don't agree with your definition

Perverts engage in perverted acts of perversion.

That doesn't even make sense. Did you manage to throw in a double
negative as well? Jeez, I really misunderestimated you.

Posing as a scientist?? Actually I'm extremely weak at grammar.

It seems to me that a person can engage in an act of perversion without
actually being perverted. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

edit. replying to your posts is a good example.

I grew up on a dairy farm. Female cows hump each other when they are in heat. It was convenient for my father to artificially inseminate them having no bulls in the herd.

Other animal species are homosexuals. I heard seagulls are 40% gay.

I may have a hard time understanding why this is the case, but it is clearly a natural part of evolution. Go figure.

because people like you are trying to brainwash people into thinking its just as normal as vanilla ice-cream.

probably the same way a rapist would feel when seeing a thread called "are rapists mentally ill?".
