It's just a joke, and if you tell on them, they'll just treat you like crap.  Don't tell on people when it's just random funny things people do, tell on people when people are murdering or raping each other.\n\nIn other words, don't be a tattle tale unless it really hurts someone and isn't just a prank.

LOL - fab :)\n\nJust on the 1000 to 1 chance you are serious and not jsut being funny, then it is the irrational fear of gay folks.\n\nI like your idea best though :)

Why should anyone care who loves who?  \nIt's my guess that most homophobes are repressed closet gays.  What other reason would they have for overreacting to something that doesn't concern them?\nGays want to be married so they can get the same benefits like health insurance as other families get.  \nWho is anyone to tell someone else that who they love is wrong? \nOther than deluded bible thumpers that is. \nI take it as a compliment if a lesbian makes a pass at me.  It's always nice to know when someone finds you to be desirable. \nWhat does that hurt?  NOTHING!!!\nPeople who dwell with hatred on what other people do need to get a life and do something more constructive with their time.

Homosexuals are the only group of minority were its permitted to laugh at and mock. It's an interesting and yet sad state of affairs.

I have no idea what the answer to this is, but have noticed the same myself.  Had a lesbian aquaintance who was always making fun of gay men, and a lesbian woman that I worked with hated gay men.  Did not understand it.

Our society today is so used to hating on people and attacking them.  If someone ask a gay question then everyone assumes they are gay. Everyone just needs to take a Valium and chill the fuck out.

That's not true! They just love it for entertaining people but even those entertainers are not gays, that's just their job to entertain people. Go to my country and you will know.

Because currently, it is a very taboo subject.\nPeople are scared of the unknown and things they don't understand, so to cover up for their ignorance they mock and disrespect gays.\n\nPeople can be real dumb sometimes.

It's more or less just that they crave attention.  Sometimes it can be funny, but in the sense when friends are joking with friends (i.e. you make fun of how your friend's hair looks like he/she stuck their finger in an electric socket).  Unfortunately (and it's been this way for years and years) the status quo is such that (and has been such that) when one makes fun of another it boosts his/her self esteem and morale (and that of his/her friends) at the cost of another's.  Most times this behavior is conducive to a lack of self confidence and a need to prove oneself to his/her peers.  Also, it indicates a broken history (even if the person in question comes from a prestigious background).  They just don't get enough love, so they've got to be a*holes...  It's just a fact of life.

Jokes are meant to make people laugh, they're not meant to hurt people.  If it made you laugh, then it served its purpose.  The way I view it is that comedians are making fun of a stereotype, not the people in the minority group.  Sure some of these stereotypes might hold true, but it's the individual's decision whether or not to follow them.

Go ask a gay marine... if you're brave enough to!\n\nSome gays do it as a joke, it's called acting camp and it's just sending up the stereotype that is often placed on gay people...it can be funny and it can be really tiresome too I agree.

sorry mean people are mean to you. happy for you that you are in love that is wonderful. \ni don't know why some people think homosexuality is wrong, stumps me entirely. i suppose they need to hate other people to feel better about themselves. too bad they don't know that love is supreme.

Because we ARE gay? Why do people hate us, is it the fact that they can't stop poking their big fat noses into other people's sexual business? Pathetic...

If you look at the homophobes, many are doing it out of fear. I suspect that most of those who spout anti-gay or homophobic insults are in fact gay themselves, but will not admit it. Just think about how many scandals there have been lately where someone who is vociferously anti-gay has turned out to be gay themselves!
