Okay, so here's my take on it...
Personally, I think that people that are homophobic are really not secure in themselves and it's easier to direct your attention to something outside than something inside. I know who I am and what/who I like and dislike...and I have absolutely no problem communicating that to anyone. I don't understand straight people that are put off by being hit on by a gay person. If ya think about it, someone who hits on you can only be doing so because they find you attractive. Straight or gay, my idea on this is "thanks for teh compliment." Now, if I tell you that I'm not interested and you push the subject...then we got a problem. That's not because someone is straight or gay, it's because they are an annoying jackass that isn't listening to the words coming out of my mouth. Period. Frankly, I don't care what someone's sexual orientation is...what you do in your bedroom (or anyone else's) is not any of my business unless a) it's my bedroom or b) i'm there. Same thing I felt about the whole damn Bill Clinton/ Monia Lewinsky/ blue dress/ cigar thing... but then...that's just my opinion...I could be wrong... |

"dude being in a situation that i was in once makes me not real fond of gay guys" Your ignorance just shines through...if I was to hold the actions of one straight man against them all...I'd end up the crazy old lady is 600 cats just waiting for me to die so they could eat my eyeballs. |

Party fag I appologize.....Wrong person I think..I have a 19 yr old
daughter and wouldnt want her harrassed by older guys. She said quit and he didnt. There is nothin wrong with being gay as long as its no pushed on someone who donst want that situation. I have gay friends and again aplogize. Enjoy life no matter who you are with... |

Well said Peachy - people with prejudgement often make excuses for why
they have a right to hate people. A black guy robbed my family so all them are bad. A Mexican guy I knew was always lazy, so all Mexicans are lazy. We have to take everyone at face value and if someone is a jerk, they are a jerk, not everyone like them. So one lesbian wanting to cop a feel of your breast, or even a few that may have hit on you also does not mean all of them are on the prowl for you (refering to an earlier post full of face punching anger). But everyone has to live in their own skin, walk their walk, and even the negetive energy and hatred seem to have a place in the world, so I will do what is right for me. I just think the world would be a better place if people could soften their hearts a bit. If someone gives you a crappy situation, deal with it and move on. |

Interesting... also I agree w/ u on the whole thing with the name party_f.. is using. My uncle's gay and I would never call him a fag nor any other gay person. |

My brother is gay and has been actively so for many years. I accept him
and his right to live how he choses. I have met and hung out with gay people and find them very intellectual and to have a great sence of humor. People make their own choices and live with whatever happens after that. I have no problem with it. |

Everyone deserves and needs to be loved whether they are gay,lesbian,
fat, skinny, or what have you. I have no hate nor ill will towards gay men or lesbians, I want to know the person inside not just the sexual preference.I don't understand the hate thats out there towards anyone, life is just too damned short to spend it hating. So Party ,darlin ,being gay is fine with me.The world just needs to stop the hate. |

I could care less if somebody is gay.I only care when gay men mistake me
for gay and attempt to hit on me.I mean I here gay friends mostly female but they I'm straight and we chill with no problems |

Being gay is not my sexual preference but who am I
to judge anyone? I really don't know anyone who's gay, or at least admits it but I wouldn't think any worse of them if they were gay. Who knows what makes people attracted to one another? Humanity itself, and sexuality in particular, is a complicated thing. There are no easy answers. We do what we do. Shit! That is an easy answer, isn't it? |

Sorry to put a damper on things, but homosexuality in not all right. We
have come to an age where we are indiscrimanaltly tolerant of everything. Some thing are not right. I have no hate or fear of gay people, and have known a few for a long time. They know how I feel, disagree with me, but respect my opinion anyway. The big question I have for gay men is what is to name a thing in society that is wrong. |
