Of course we're not! But if you believe that we choose to be gay, that must mean that we choose to straight, also. Which means that we start out without a preference for either and are thusly blanketly bisexual.

Agree. ^^ We don't choose to be gay I think... But most of them (I think) are influence by TV Shows, Music, ect..

@ Allstories: Yeah, I misunderstood, I know.
 
seeing how badly gays are treated, makes me think.

That it would totally suck being gay.

Gays are treated badly because of ignorant people like you.

Please tell me that I'm misunderstanding you now, because it sounds like you just said homosexuality is a result of the media. That's not what you meant, is it?

No, no, and no. I didn't said that. I try to say that mostly the Gay People are gay because of some influences they had in their lives. Agree or disagree, I don't really care. ^^
 
So here's a story. I grew up in a rural part of a country that's mainly indifferent to homosexuals. Still it was a rural area, so the implication was "boys like girls" and not much else. We have two television stations and neither showed appealing content. I didn't get internet until I was 14 and by that stage I already had worked out I didn't get a stuff about a persons gender.
Where's the influence to have made me the way I am, in that environment? :P

<.< I'm not talking about every Gays you know. I said " Mostly of the Gays " are influence by various stuff in their lives.
 
Flame wars start because of people like you. Stop it.

No offense, hon, but it was started longgg before he said that. Not really a flame war though, just more like a heated debate. Which I think is fine and dandy. Probably why the mods haven't closed this yet.

And in response to the other thing said...

I grew up in a home where jokes about gay people were cracked on a regular basis, and outright hatred for the idea is expressed, that they are sinners and going to hell for the things they "chose" to do.

Basically, it's a life of repressing the emotions and thoughts that make you who you are at your very core. Once I realized I was doing it, I stopped. And things all started coming clearer.

I turn out to be bisexual.

So...yeah.

At least I know I didn't have influences to make me that way.
 
I honestly have yet to see flaming yet, so I think you're over-reacting.
Homosexuality is a touchy topic and most people have been pretty well behaved imo.
 
Hope nobody takes this the wrong way but i am totally against it.
Maybe they DO love each,and maybe it's NOT their fault they were (maybe) born that way,but it is still wrong. Men should like women,and women should like men,that is the way i think it should be. Why else would there be Adam and Eve and not Adam and Bob? :laugh::laugh::laugh:

I know you're not trying to be offensive, but it still strikes me kind of bad.

Denying who you are, and loving the opposite gender, isn't that kind of a bad thing to do?
 
You know, if it were Adam and Steve, maybe we'd never have been cast out of the garden of eden? A boy wouldn't have fallen for a measly apple XD

I dont completely understand what you mean,but i have my own right to say im against it,and i wasn't trying to be offensive,in fact i have a gay cousin,just because i dont particuarly like him doesn't mean i don't like them im just....against them getting married is all

Hope this doesnt give me a bad rep
 
Yes, you totally have the right to say what you believe. I will .never. question that as long as I live.

But I'm just saying...

Say, a guy, is born gay. Wouldn't forcing him to like girls his entire life be in direct contradiction with who he really is?

That's all I meant.

And it's cool, mate, no harm done, I'm just giving the counterpoint. :]
 
Thank you for clearing that up! :classic: I feel better now...hmm i don't see many people saying their against it but when i look at the poll it shows quite a few people ARE against it....makes me wonder if their against it but theres so many people who arent against it so they pretend their for it...:paranoid: just wondeirng....
 
I don't really care. I'm not homosexual, so it doesn't concern me. However, if there ever was a petition handed to me, I would vote yes. I say why not? It won't hurt me, and I don't have to pay extra in order for gays to get married, so what the hey? Unless gays getting married hurts my chances of getting married with a girl, I don't care. If I had to go to a ballet to vote, as I said, I would vote yes, but I wouldn't wake up early to vote. If I have such a problem with gay marrage, I just won't marry someone of the same sex. Doesn't mean you can't. And I support that right. If I can marry whomever I like, why can't gays?

Hm...
Pretend to be for gay marriage?
Very interesting thought, don't you think?

Various stuff?

Hm... what kind of stuff?
Waffles?
Grass?


... Tuna?

any way you could clairify?

Health care costs. You would be paying more.
 
Well, I'm still for it. Like I said, I ain't joining a parade to support em', but I'll gladly pay a bit extra in order to protect America's freedom. Freedom of choice. If I can marry, why can't they?

Health care is bound to happen. What can we do. So long as they don't cripple my wallet, don't care.
 
I myself am glad that there are more people for then against it. I just wanna know if Gays will ever be able to get married. If so then ...YAY if not I will move to Canada,Get Married, Come back to the U.S which is perfectly legal. Or just stay there because Canada has free health care and is a neutral counrty when it comes to war. As for america.... Against Gay Marriage,EXPENSIVE Health Care and shots everything that we dont like (glares a the sher stupidity that surrounds President Bush's being >.>) If we had a gay president oh what a wonder thatll do for this country. You know unless they outlaw ummm... Normal marriage. I for one would be FURIOUS even though I plan on getting married to another man if possible
 
Humph. If we ever have a homosexual president, well, thatl'l be the day. Not that I'm saying I don't want it, far from it. Just, until we wake up, that will never happen.

But we do seem to be evolving. There is a woman & african-american both running. Despite me being black/panimanian, I'll still go for Hillary, she has a better record.

But seriously, I would love to see a gay canidite. So long as he's/she's a good leader.
