Because lesbians are more accepted in society than gay men.I believe that's because of  male fantasy of having two women together.

Because they are jealous and want to join in but can't so they break it up instead.\nReally though, anyone who is sexing in public is breaking the law but perhaps gay people feel a little free-er with themselves.

Without wanting to start too much controversy, I do believe it is a mistake of nature, it goes against the very essence of any species, primal instinct forces us to try to propagate the species.  Homosexuality is in direct opposition of that, although I do encourage acceptance, as it is nobodies fault and they should be allowed to live there lives as normal people do.  I just wish they wouldn't be so IN YOUR FACE, "I'M A HOMO YOU BETTER LIKE IT,!!!"  I think by trying to be accepted they go too far and it's annoying.

There's an important distinction that people like you don't grasp. Me and people like me don't dislike gay people. We think they are God's children just like anyone else. What we are against is homosexual acts. Just like we don't dislike adultorers, we just dislike the action they chose to go forward with. It's the old adage - love the sinner, hate the sin. I've known gay people, and I'm fine with them - some of them are extremely kind and generous. But what I am against is if the act out on their tendancy. We all have weaknesses, some are prone to alcoholism, but it doesn't mean that it's ok for them to drink alcohol. Some are prone to drugs, but....you get the picture. It may seem cruel to some to count homosexual acts as sins, but I didn't make the rules, I just trust that God knows what is right and what isn't.

For the same reason straight people want to join.  No, gay does not "come with love everybody peace to all fagity mentality".

You're right!!! If you could "choose" to be gay then you would be bi because you'd would like women and men,  only stupid people think that it's a choice...

I may get yelled at for this but...\n\n...there is a Freudian explanation that says that people are homophobic because they are surpressing their own erotic feelings towards the same sex.\n\nThe other explanation is that they are narrow minded idiots ;-)

Why is that such a small percentage of the population can cause so much grief. Most of the people in this country still see homosexuality for what it is morally wrong. If they must be together I am not even going to attempt to stop them. Neither will I ever embrace their cause,and this is what really irks me that the homosexual community and their supporters insist that I do so or then I must be a homophobe. The lifestyle in my view is no different than an addiction to drugs or alcohol or any other aberrant behavior. "I often hear live and let live" FINE don't try to force me into accepting what I cannot and will not.

i guess it is because people find it unconventional. i had this lesson in psyschology that if all of the people in one room wear white shirts and someone comes in and rather wears a different color, that person is bound to be looked at. there's nothing offensive about being looked at if you know how to enjoy the attention. the fascination with gay people will never stop unless every man in the world is gay. i think it is better we leave it at that. there's actually no use for gay people to mind this people at all. they've just got to be happy with themselves.

I believe it's born into therm. As a straight person, can you really fathom going for someone of your same gender? No, probably not, and for gay people, it's absolutely beyond them to want to go for someone of the opposite gender. I had a lesbian go off on how gross guys and their bodies were and how she was so greatful to be a lesbian haha. \n\nI just can't imagine anyone, nowadays, choosing to become this hated and stereotyped minority. It seems illogical to one day decide "oh hey, people don't hate me/think I'm weird enough, I'm going to start dating within my own gender"

I have no earthly idea why people keep insisting on defining marriage!  Why is this such a big deal?  There are so many things that are truly imporant that we can put our energy into solving rather than someones desire to marry someone of the same sex.  You certainly wont stop them from having a relationship.  What are you doing that the government will decide to ban next?  Frankly, whatever goes on in my underpants is none of the governments business.  All of those who are in support of BIG GOVERNMENT telling you how to conduct your private lives had better watch out, you may get more than what you bargained for.  Obviously, since this question keeps coming up over and over, there are more people out there that have little else to do but worry about this nonsense.  If this has to do with Christianity, divorce, partner swapping, adultery, sexual abuse, spousal abuse, etc. have already made a mockery of marriage so who cares if homosexuals want a part of it.  I think there is something in that big Bible that you all are thumping that says that we have all have free will....Please stop trying to legislate morality and personal decision that have absolutly nothing to do with you.  If you dont want to marry someone of the same sex, DONT.  And no, I am not gay, I am just not so hypocritical that I feel I need to impose my lifestyle on others.

"how to make some one gay" This is a stupid question, you can't make someone gay. And why would you want to know that? Are you gay and you want someone else to be gay too? well just ask them if there gay, or stick your finger up them and if they don't punch the crap out of you then the are gay ;)

what does this have to do with lesbians, gays, and transgendered? (btw i couldnt disagree with u more)

I agree with you 100%.  I think there are many reasons why people are threatened by homosexuals.  Many people hate anything that they don't understand.  And then there are others who want to force their religions down people's throats.  Several people still hang on to stereotypes such as homosexuality being a disease/disorder.  And there are many who simply hate everyone who's different from them.\n\nOh, and before some idiot responds by saying that marriage is a religious institution and therefore homosexuals should not be allowed to marry, I'm going to address the issue...  If your opinion is that homosexuals should not marry simply because marriage is a religious institution then why are people permitted to marry without the permission of the church?  Why do people get their marriage licenses from the government rather than the church?  Why are people permitted to have civil ceremonies?  The truth is that, your arguement would only be valid if you were also argueing that NO ONE should get married unless they were religious.  Your arguement would only be valid if you were in favor of taking marriage out of the hands of the government altogether.\n\nI'm sick of religious arguements against homosexuality.  To these people who feel that homosexual marriage should not be permitted because "God" doesn't approve---  Do you suggest that laws be passed which ban premarital sex?  Do you suggest that laws be passed which ban "partaking of anything harmful to your body"?  Do you suggest that laws be passed which force you to pay tithes?  Do you suggest that laws be passed which force you to attend church?  We are supposed to be have the freedom to choose our own religion (or to not choose one).  Not permitting homosexuals to marry is just one way of trying to force a religion on people.\n\nAnd as far as the effects that homosexuality has on children is concerned...  What effects?  Do you have some kind of proof that it adversely affects children?  Treating homosexuals like they're "bad" is what can cause confusion for children.  If children are taught that it's ok to live your own life then they won't have negative feelings and confusion.  I've heard some people say that they believe children will be influenced into "turning gay", which is a ridiculous arguement because the same could be said with regards to heterosexuality.  Sexual behavior is LEARNED.  No one is born one way or the other.  Therefore children can feel pressured and be influenced just as easily by both homosexuals AND heterosexuals.   What's important is to teach children that everyone has a right to their own lifestyles.\n\nOh, and there's the arguement that homosexuality is dangerous to marriage....  HOW?!!!  My marriage is wonderful.  And I haven't met one single person who has experienced marital problems because of homosexuality.

Wow, I am shocked at the majority of the answers. Perhaps they think that ACTING on being gay/lesbian is a choice?\n\nAnyways I do agree with you. People JUST don't understand that you can't control feelings. You DON'T get to choose what sex you like. Why do you think a big percentage of gays in denials kill themselves? Many try to like the opposite sex. but you CAN'T choose what you like. I just can't stress it enough. I don't know from personal experience, but I do know I couldn't pretend to like women because deep down inside I never would have sexual desires for women even if I wanted to. You can't force yourself to have sexual desires for something you don't want it for, and that is why straight people think being gay is a "choice".

people are straight so they can put there genitals to proper use and procreate. gay people are really just perverted. i mean check it for urself. most of them are bisexual. they are just caught up in sex mentally(hey mindless there is no way two men together makes sense. that is not waht those body parts are made for. i dont mean to be the cause of any hate crimes but if someone can show me the logic of that then fine.)
