rjr2006 said:today at my high school, the principal (headmaster) said that gay children have been abused and tried to commit suicide, because they didn't feel right in schools due to bullying. I am heterosexual and PLEASE RESPECT gay people since they want to be open minded and I don't mind having friends who are gay or lesbian.

deafdyke said:Errr..... NO!!!!!! The first time I fell in love with a girl, I didn't even know that girls could fall in love with girls. Well like, I knew it rhetoricly, but I didn't know it was possible for ME to fall in love with a girl!
Crazyman....honestly you are SO prejudicated......Your attitude is slowly but surely dying. Many young people are a lot more accepting of homosexuality nowadays. Your attitude is like some old person who was raised in the heart of the Bible Belt, or like those really sheltered kids who have been raised for Christ 24/7 with no exposure to the secluar real world. I know a LOT of people who follow rather conservative Christian churches, but they have told me that they are OK with homosexuality. They see it as "It's the quality of the love that counts."
The church is evolving and changing......and I bet you in twenty or thirty years people will look back and be SHOCKED at present day attitudes towards same sex love! Back when my parents were growing up the debate was about interracial marriage. Now, a lot of kids are SHOCKED about the vitrol and hatred that interracial couples dealt with back then! Sure it's still somewhat shocking, but people have learned to accept it...... as they will with same sex love!
RedFox said:Are you kidding?
Who said the weather had anything to do with gay people? The weather doesn't know which countries or cities respect gay people. It just follows physics. If there was really a god controlling the weather to target places that are gay friendly, the god should go for San Francisco. Then why are those hurricanes hitting the east and south of the US and very rarely hit the west? It's the Bible Belt that's being hit instead of gay friendly San Francisco. It's the water in the west being colder than the Gulf water. It doesn't look like the weather is being used to target people who respect gays. So do not use bad weather to encourage people to disrespect gays.
Miss*Pinocchio said:Yeah we willl give you respect, oh poor you...

RedFox said:Would anybody have said that the blacks in the civil rights movement of the 1960s were just trying to get attenion after some white people were so mean to them? Would anybody say the same about women trying to get rights in the 1800s and early 1900s? Saying that groups fighting for equal rights are doing it just to get into the spotlight is silly.
Would people have said that blacks and women were black and women just to get sympathy? The difference between straight and gay people may not be as clear on the outside as it is for blacks and women, but that is not a reason to write them off as lying about being different. Not all differences have to be on the outside.
Miss*Pinocchio said:no I feel that Blacks now are still using the race card...
that doesn't have to do anything with gay and lesbian. RESPECT themMiss*Pinocchio said:no I feel that Blacks now are still using the race card...
Just like Oprah who use her race card when french people
won't let her in the store after it closed...
I think it is stupid... if the stores closed, it is closed...
they won't open up the store because she is "Oprah"
she is just like everybody else...
If she wants to buy some new clothes, she need to
get up in the morning and go to that store when it is open
again.
Miss*Pinocchio said:so if I say,
"I am a lesbian"
nothing happen....
can't do anything else... but feel so sorry for yourself....
nothing going to change...
so you're gay, in love and attractive to same sex... so what?
they see they can't get attention...
they tell everybody that they gay...
and then suing people for discriminating them.
I don't understand why that lesbian suing the fertility doctor...
why she told the doctor she is gay... and he stopped treated her...
Then go to court, suing. and her name in the newspaper...
getting more attention...
Geez...
Why can't the lady go to another fertility doctor? THere
are million of them... just don't tell them your business.
CODAchild said:First off, people don't just decide they are going to be gay and lesbian one day and change back the next day. It's part of their geneology. There is nothing that anyone can do to change that. Some of the postings I read by a couple of people shows me how sheltered their lives are.
"God said, if you don't respect my people, then you don't respect Me" We should never judge a person because they are gay or lesbian, we take a deeper look inside of them, their hearts, and that is what we take them for. It has to be confusing on the person when they discover they love someone that is the same sex, but, what makes this whole thing worse? Is the way they are discriminated, ridiculed and harrassed. There is no need of that. Furthermore, when they are in a same sex relationship, they love from the heart the same as us heterosexuals do. We have no right to bash anyone that is in the same sex relationship, we do all we can to show them they are still our friends.
Coolie, those people were not your true friends if they turned their backs on you like that. You don't need them. You want friends who are loyal and honest , and take you for who you really are. Acceptance is the key factor here, acceptance!!!
Why can't anyone just turn around and see how beautiful life really is, how wonderful some people can be, and stop centering and focusing on people who are in a relationship that they just cannot accept. They are human too, they have feelings too, and they are a lot more forgiving than some of us humans could ever be. They are put of our human race!!!!
