IRS: homosexuality is a choice, no tax deduction for gays

What .. No gay cakes from the IRS either? :rant:

What Morrissey is focusing on, however, is the words of the IRS agent who turned down his IVF tax deduction.



The IRS agent noted that Morrissey's sexual orientation is a "choice."


Morrissey's lawsuit states, "Despite the IRS's backward and archaic thinking, plaintiff is not homosexual by 'choice.'"
Morrissey claims that the procedures "took nearly four years, seven IVF procedures, three surrogates, three egg donors, two clinics and more than $100,000.

Artificial insemination is elective, and should not be tax deductible for anyone- even normal people.

By the same token, choosing to have a child is also a choice.  :whistling:

Yeah but to be fair, the nation has knuckled under for everything else they wanted. They had no reason to think they'd get special treatment in its affair either.

True, but there's a difference between "elective" and "choice".

Elective: hair plug surgery, tummy tucks, and boob jobs - should not be a tax deduction.

OK, maybe boob jobs.

I didn't miss it. It's still called "sexual preference", which aggravates the poofters to no end.

No, we are hard at work being obtuse.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Think about it.

The government is behind the push to legitimize the 'gay' lifestyle and even go as far as punishing those who don't 'roll over' and do their bidding .. Remember that couple who had to shut down their bakery?

Well, you have a Government entity (IRS) telling a 'Gay' couple that 'Gayness' is a choice so don't expect any breaks from us!
