I know a lot of Abrahamic religious folk go into a seizure over people engaging in "alternate lifestyles".
The question is, what's normal?
I'm 33, single and have no desire to have children. That's "alternate".
I haven't touched an alcoholic beverage in about 10 years, and probably have 3 times in my entire life. That's "alternate".
What is alternate? Or is it just a euphanism for "those gays".

Honestly, there isn't really a true meaning. Every one has their own defenition to "Alternate Lifestyle". Some thing could be "Alternate" for me, but not to others. However, what I have noticed one thing, that when people need an excuse to do something either inmoral or wrong, people normally refer to it as an "Alternate Lifestyle", example homosexuality. Who says it's wrong? The Bible does. It's clear when it says that "Men who lay with men will not enherit god's kigndom".
Now as to what's normal? What ever the bible says is right, then it's right, what ever it says it's wrong, then it's wrong. Most law's are based on the bible, such as killing, stealing, etc.

By definition 'alternate lifestyle' has more than one meaning. The term is probably being used in this instance to refer solely to homosexuals, yes.

It's going to vary from culture to culture.
Whatever stands out as different from the norm and runs against popular assumptions and values.
Even for those who reject "society" it has its use as something to define oneself against.

your desire to never have children is likely directly related to the fact that no woman would ever consider touching you in any way that could even remotely be considered sexual.
I also said that your genetalia resembled an Asian school girl's, but I wasn't going to mention that.
