It's true that most members of society didn't really accept gay culture yet but given more time, I'm sure everybody would say, "Who cares!"\nIf a person is gay, let him be himself. It's like being a lesbian too. As daily life gives me more problem I could handle why do I need to care about other people's lives?\nBe yourself and learn to be open minded....that's what the cure to some bigots out there....

It is normal for people to feel scared about what they either do not know or do not understand. It is unfortunate that people express their prejudices usually with violence (whether physical or vocal).\n\nI think that a lot of hostility comes from men who consider a homosexual man a threat to their masculinity. The thing is, most of those people are homophobic and have NO IDEA about you.\n\nThese people attack what they don't understand, and it IS wrong, but unfortunately hate-crimes and such like have been part of society for thousands of years. Most wars break out because of it.\n\nSome gay people (some that  know) counter-attack by going out of their way to express themselves in an ultra-gay fashion, which is just adding fuel to the fire.\n\nThe thing is this. Being gay is not about who you sleep with, but who you love. Peoples love lives are the same, and should not concern anyone unless it directly affects them.\n\nI would suggest opening your heart to these people and say to yourself that maybe they are not aware f how incredibly ignorant they are. As far as a human being is concerned, try putting it into context...\n\n'I was lying on the street, my heart had stopped and lungs given up, when a stranger came up and touched me. He touched me not with the love of a man for a man, but of a man for a fellow man in need. After that homosexual man had saved my life, he became my brother for the rest of it. I have since been grateful everyday for that man, not homo nor hetro, who gave me my life.'        - Chameleon Dreams, Jayden Walker.

Unusual, yes, most straight guys I know are freaked out by gay men.  I wish I could find a straight man that is comfortable around gay people.  My best friend (whom I live with) is gay and I would love to find a man that would be comfortable with my best friend .

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

"Oh, did you have sex with me?" or "I don't know what it's like to be gay, obviously you do...maybe YOU have something to confess?" or "Prove it".\n\nThen don't let them bother you, people like that are idiots.

Not for me.\n\nCan't people stop questioning why people are gay and just accept that people are gay?

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.

Because many people are just immature and can't get over a small thing like sexual preferrance. ( I am straight BTW, but I still care :  } )

It does not bother me one way or the other, I am not really interested in the sexual habits of others, unless they interest me. Each person has his/her own sexuality, which does not concerm me in the least.\n\nI have known gay men and lesbian women, I have been to parties with both and enjoyed the company of both.  I have many friends that are gay or lesbian. We talk, we even talk about sex on ocassions, eat, watch TV, go to sports bars, and enjoy each others company.\n\nI don't really understand the reason people are concerned about the sexuality of others any way. When I first meet a person I don't go up to them with my hand out and say hey how are you what is your name,oh by the way are your gay or lesbian. I like people for what they bring to the table, a good personality, good company, pleasant to be around, and other things we have in common like sports, BBQ out doors, fishing, attending sporting events and the like. The rest does not concern me as I am not normally going to be physically or sexually attractive to another man, nor is a lesbian going to be physically or sexually attractive to me.  \n\nBeing gay or a lesbian will not lead the world into being abnormal. I will bet that at some time in your life you have spoken with and had a conversation with a lesbian or a gay male and was not aware of it. You probably have a few gay men or lesbians in your family, maybe not in your immediate family but in your extended family of cousins and distant cousins.\n\nAll I can say is just love people for what they are, we do not fit in a mold and are all the same. If you happen to meet a gay or lesbian say hi and move on if you don't want to be around them. You might learn something by talking to  a few of them.\n\nI hope this has been of some use to you, good luck.\n\n"FIGHT ON"

You're right. People are too black-and-white about sexuality. They don't accept anything in between - either someone is straight and would not even want to touch someone of the same sex or someone is gay and would not even want to touch someone of the opposite sex. Reality is, of course, far more complex than that. We spend too much time defining what people are and too little time trying to understand who they are.\n\nI think the lesson here is that we probably should go to people we care about - and not the masses on Y!A - when we genuinely need advice!

theeinstigator\n1 hour ago\n\n\nReport Abuse\n\n I joined a new gym in a predominantly gay area. I have been getting hit on quite a bit. Should I enjoy this?\nI have also become tired of my girlfriend and have always been very turned on by hot TS girls. Is this normal? If I considered trying the other side, would I be gay?? \n\n9 answers  \n\n\n\ntheeinstigator\n2 hours ago\n\n\nReport Abuse\n\n Why do most gay people harbor so much anger?\nWhy do they feel so angry towards society?

because people are cruel and want to target someone that is different then them. I wish everyone would just leave gay people alone. They are also human beings with feelings!!

I can understand why you wouldnt like this specific person, great, and its great that you dont hold that against gay people. Feeling wierded out is totally natural, am i right in suggesting that youve never really come across it before? literally, there is hardley a difference between you and me. We are both human beings, only i prefer having relationships with guys. Dont let that be what gets to you. you shouldnt judge people on who they are, based on gender, sexuality, race or class, but instead as who they are as a person. its best to get to know the person before you judge them for being gay. Just remember, that single person who did something to a family member of yours is an individual, dont judge everybody else based on their actions (it wouldnt be fair!)\n\njust get to know them before you judge them :D and its great to know that there is somebody out there who doesnt "HATE" the gay crowd!

Oh god... People STILL think that being gay is a choice??  People tease you, beat you up, you're the brunt of all jokes, people fight to make sure you don't get married... Why would anyone in the right mind choose a life like that?  Trust me, it's not a choice.

Just curious - Why do you care?  Is this a survey for something in particular?  Do YOU know anyone who is gay?  I've known people who are gay, but again ... who cares.  I really don't want to know anything about some one's sexual preference.

I am not gay and I do not put down gay people.  But I do read the messages so I will get a better understanding and learn more about your choices.\n\nI hope that doesn't bother anyone
