They are handicapped in their mind???? How so?? I've seen studies that show the average IQ of a gay person is actually higher than the average straight person, so surely he didn't mean intelligence.

He wasn't refering to IQ. A man that wants to have sex with another man has a mental issue or handicap, for sure.

Good grief. I'm trying to behave in my comeback but a statement like this makes it difficult!
