Is it normal that i think being gay is a flaw and hate myself?

I'm 19 and I've gone to therapy for two years to help with depression and identify my sexuality/issues. (Not conversion therapy!) I have always felt that being gay is not natural for many reasons such as two males cannot reproduce. I've been single my whole life despite a little fling with a guy friend last year when I discovered I was gay (we just kissed once and cuddled shirtless). I'm proud of being single and hope to be that way for life. Anyone agree with me? I sincerely do not want to offend anyone, but this is how I feel. I respect other gay people and have some happy gay friends.

    Yes, it's normal to think that.

    Think about this... the gene that makes people gay, instead makes them physically ill. What would we do as a people? Look for a cure. Since this particular mental disorder doesn't cause physical pain to it's host, we don't look for a cure, and instead pretend its normal. It's not. How can we evolve as a species if we're fucking each other and not reproducing.

    The only reason they're starting to legalize it is to help with over population. If you believe its due to the goodness of their hearts you're severely deluded.

    Let the shit storm begin in 3...2...1....

    Being gay does make you a minority but it doesn't make you any more flawed than I am for being one of the minority with green eyes.

    I understand how you feel, though, because it does sometimes seem that our whole existence is about reproduction. There's nothing stopping you reproducing, by the way. It'd just be a less conventional set-up.

    Perhaps if you divorce your sexuality from your gender (however difficult that might be), you'd see it differently. You are a human male who has reproductive capabilities the same as most human males. But you just happen to be gay as well.

    It you are happy being single nobody should try to convine you of the contrary. I know a man who has been single ever since I know him (my french teacher) and he's a very happy man.

    Sadly, I suppose it is normal to feel like this because lots of gay men & women feel that way about themselves. The part where you wish to remain single though, I do not think that is normal.
    Please just feel happy about yourself.
