French actor Alain Delon told a French television station that homosexuality is "against nature" in an interview about his opposition to gay adoption, Pink News reports:
Speaking live on France 2, he was asked about his controversial stance on prohibiting same-sex couples from having children.
He responded: “Yes, it is against nature, I'm sorry.
“We are here to love a woman, to woo a woman, not to flirt with or get picked up by guys.”
On the topic of same-sex marriages, Mr Delon added: “I'm not against gay marriage, I do not give a damn, but I am against the adoption of children.” …
…When the host told Mr Delon they were receiving a slew of angry messages on Twitter, he said: “What I do not want is for them to adopt. But we will not discuss it for hours, or it becomes a different issue.”
Delon has starred in dozens of French films and once thought of as that country's answer to James Dean.
