Stoic philosophy and homosexuality

 “It is foolish to feel proud of qualities that you do not possess yourself, but as for the natural things that you possess, it is perfectly acceptable to feel proud of that.”
 The Enchiridion Book, Chapter 6, Paragraph 53.
 This is a phrase that was mentioned in the book (The Enchiridion) by the Stoic philosopher, Epictetus, and as is clear from the text of the quote or phrase, Epictetus tells us more than 2000 years ago, that you should feel proud because of your possession of natural, unique things in yourself, and here we mean, of course, homosexuality.  Nationality: Being gay is a very natural thing, that is, the nature of your gift is a difference, not as a genetic mutation or a biological error, but rather as a distinctive gift, and as we know, this world is full of all kinds of tendencies and differences, whether sexual, cultural, political, social, or civilizational.
 However, we must be proud of the things we possess, we must be proud of homosexuality as a natural thing and as it stems from the same source from which we came and to which we will return, nature.
 You may ask me, most people do not like homosexuality and view it as a wrong genetic mutation, a biological error, or even just brainwashing imported by Western cultures, so how do you explain that to them?
 I would like to point out that homosexuality has existed since time immemorial, and as Marcus Aurelius says in his book Meditations:
 “Nothing happens to a human being outside the scope of the human being’s natural experience. The same applies to the bull. Nothing in his experiences is strange to the natural nature of the bull. If everything tells what is usual and natural for him, then what do you complain about? As long as nature has not brought you anything beyond your tolerance.”  .
 Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, chapter 8, paragraph 46.
 As is clear from this quote, nature does not bring anything strange from outside this world. Homosexuality exists in humans as it exists in animals, and homosexuality is deeply rooted in history since humans began forming villages and small communities, so where is the real abnormality of those who speak?  About him?! How do you describe his natural inclinations as abnormal just because the vast majority of people have inclinations toward another gender?!
 What logic is this?
 Secondly, even if we assume, for the sake of argument, that my sexual orientation is unnatural, what will we do with gays or members of the LGBT community - will we kill them?  Because they are a minority and distorted from a biological point of view, or should we contain them and accept them as they are because, first and foremost, they are human beings?
 In conclusion, I would like you to remember the words of the philosophers Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius, about natural inclinations and that you should feel proud to have sexual inclinations that are different from the vast majority of people. Accept your difference boy.
