I agree that I don’t really want these relationships or to support them.
Some people would argue “promoting homosexual relationships harms the society”, as in “They promote sex that doesn’t procreate.” Or “It’s a sin.” In my opinion, they are wrong, but I’ve probably heard that argument this week (people saying stuff like rainbows in class rooms is homosexual propaganda).
To add to your argument, I would probably point at the specific harms rather than the general notion: (1) bad environment cost, (2) bad for mental health since it promotes narcissism & anti-social behavior, (3) exploitative, (4) anti-privacy, (5) better uses for this tech. I’m sure you can keep going.
You're absolutely right!
