You Say Tomatoes
1. The fact that you and billions of other humans have felt uncomfortable observing activity deviant to what's been the norm in civilized cultures over the millenia is evidence that you do indeed have an inherent inhibition to this deviant activity.
I have the exact same feeling of revulsion (not necessarily the right word) seeing two men deep kiss (yeah, It's the right word) as I do of seeing a man eating a tomato as if it were an apple. Do I then get to assume that eating tomatoes as if they were apples is an inherent inhibition (code for "God induced") against a deviant activity? Do I get to redefine eating as not having anything to do with whole tomatoes (DOEA)?
Maybe physicists should be studying inhibition fields and with their intuity tensors.

Everyone deserves a neatly dug grave. It is the timing that's in dispute.

Re: You Say Tomatoes
Why do your prejudices get to be universals and mine don't? That hardly seems fair.
BTW: your use callous is not a verb. It does not have a past tense.
