Human sexual behavior is Natural, but some sexual behaviors are not necessarily Normal.
The definition of Natural is:
Being in accordance with or determined by nature. Example: Natural impulses.
Definitions:
Normal is the common pattern of behavior found among the majority.
Abnormal is the common pattern of behavior found among the minority.
The U.S. population is approximately 92.9% heterosexual and 7.1% lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or something other than straight or heterosexual, reference below.
Heterosexuality is normal
Homosexuality, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or something other than straight or heterosexual is abnormal
Before you get your panties in a twist, consider the same sociologically speaking analysis of pet ownership, dogs vs cats.
The U.S. pet ownership is approximately 60% Dogs and 40% Cats
Dog ownership is normal.
Cat ownership is abnormal.
REFERENCE: WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Gallup finds 7.1% of U.S. adults identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or something other than straight or heterosexual. The percentage has steadily increased since Gallup first measured LGBT identification in 2012.
NOTE: There are approximately 70M (60%) dog owners and 45M (40%) cat owners in the U.S.
All: I Hope you enjoyed this ad-hoc lesson in Philosophy 101 (Logic) and Sociology 101 (Human Behavior) as much as I did
Normal and abnormal do not relate with nature on a 100% correlation, and do not extend beyond averages.
If in 2080 all humans are gay then being gay will be completely normal, but still not natural.
Therefore You draw a faulty correlation.
Also simplyfying the data: If its 60% dogs and 40% cats, but 100% of the cats owners have a similar life condition, then having a cat in that condition is "normal" nest within nests.
Normality is a retarded abstraction useful to only establish trends.
Nature is a reality.
Do not use words easily swayed by mass impulse such as "normal". What if tomorrow is 55% cats 45% dogs? etc.
You missed the point.
Human sexual behavior is Natural, but some sexual behaviors are not necessarily Normal.
Nah, you missed mine.
You made an example made out of statisics to explain "normal"
Which has nothing to do with nature.
Therefore "normal" (a sociologic term) and "nature" (a biologic) have nothing to do with each other except a natural correlation that can be hacked socially.
By your logic if tomorrow 100% people possess only cats and are fully homosexual that will be normality, and therefore natural.
By mine naturalness has nothing to do with what is deemed "normal" in any context except strictly natural and any time.
Our world has humans that engage in all kinds of sexual behavior, some normal some abnormal. The behavior is based on what they want and that is a natural instinct = Natural. Normal vs Abnormal is a measure of how many want one thing versus the other and it stays very consecutive over time.
So it is normal to you 10-20% of youth is lgbt according to your theory?
