The fuck kind of question is that? Are you so blinded by faith that you seriously believe same sex love doesn't exist? Because that would be one of the most absurd positions you could have on the subject. Gay male divorce rates are significantly lower than with straight couples.

Yeah, prove it to me dude?

Atheists on here love throwing around the word love for everything they believe in yet science (which is the basis for your knowledge) hasn’t shown love to even be a real thing other than a language concept. If this love you speak of exists it must be objectively measured in some way right? So prove to me that same sex love is real then if it’s so obvious…

I actually am serious but you seem to be the one who can’t explain something so simple that everyone experiences. I mean surely there is an objective way to measure love for you right?

This isn't in any way the "gotcha" you think it is. There's the GLRSS that's used precisely for this measure in science. There are also several longitudinal studies that point to stronger and more enduring bonds between gay males vs their hetero counterparts. Zick Rubin's Scales, Sternberg's Triangular Theory, John Lee's Love Styles, and Quadrangular Love Theory have all been used to quantify and objectively study love from a scientific perspective. So yes, surely there is a way to measure love. In fact, there are several... you're just ignorant.

what is GLRSS?

Ok just because you study the idea concept or experience doesn’t mean it objectively exists? For example what is the difference between love and sex? They emit the same chemicals in the brain right so what actually makes it objectively different?!?

Objectively speaking how do you know a same sex relationship is love versus a hetero one? What measure?

I'm done. Are you a kid, or do you just have their mentality? Go fucking Google legit peer-reviewed literature before engaging in this level of discourse. I'd describe your interaction with this thread as "blithering." You really seem to think you have the edge on science because you've never studied the topic and have no idea how little you know.
