I would say that if the majority of society feels homosexuality is not normal then by society standards it isn't. All of our laws, behaviours and belief systems are governed by societies standards, it is the same system that thankfully allows you to challenge these standards and attempt to implement change, any attempt at change will be met with resistance. I can guarantee that should the tide change and being gay were to become the norm there would be die hard straights there to challenge it and they all would cry discrimination.
One of these young people may look at you and think, well that Jay84 is gay, he seems like a cool bloke, he keeps albino Adders and stuff, maybe my thoughts are normal. He then goes and experiments, only to get a rude shock that by societies standards his actions are not considered normal therefore adding to his confiusion.
Your why am I not straight argument doesn't hold. As humans we are naturally heterosexual, by being gay (whether by choice or genetics) you are breaking the mould not vice versa.
You have every right to celebrate mardi gras and you should exercise that right. I don't like it, it's the same as any other group or individual that takes their beliefs and practices to the extreme, it only alienates them further.
