DavidV Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Does being an objectivist have any bearing on being homosexual, or vice versa? There are many extensive threads on this topic if you search for them, but let me give you the short version: According to Objectivism, you should live according to your nature qua man. This includes your gender - but also your nature as an individual. Furthermore, the concept of morality applies only to choice . Things we have no choice over are the given by which we form moral principles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
