Are left-handed people normal?

How about those who choose not to have kids... or not to get married in
the first place?  They're certainly not representative of society at
large.


There's a difference between "not normal" and "not typical."  A genuinely
ABNORMAL condition has serious implications for the health of the person
with the condition (or for the health of others around that person).
Homosexuality simply doesn't fall into that category.
