I think sexuality is all about love and there is nothing to say that you can't love someone of the same sex.

That said, I love my boyfriend and consider myself straight. For me it will never be the physical attributes of a person that gets me into bed with them. There's just no attraction there without the feelings. I also know not everyone thinks like I do, but that's just my own interpretation of bisexuality.

I have a few bi friends, both male and female. One of my best friends has two Moms. They are both very cool and I love being around them.

I have also dated two guys who are gay and didn't feel like telling me until about a year into the relationship. It made me feel pretty shitty in both cases. I'm still unsure if I turn guys gay, or if I just had a habit of getting involved with guys who tell me what they think I want to hear. I'm not saying that the fact that those people were less than trustworthy had anything to do with their sexulaity. It's just not fun.

Meh, I couldn't careless what your sexuality is. Just don't hit on me is pretty much all I care about.

I don't care if it's in a joking manner, I can take a joke, but if it's serious, then we'll have problems. But that's really moreso in person.

I just generally don't care what people do with their lives, aslong as it doesn't involve me.

But I do disagree with Proposition 8. It's stupid, and if gays want to get married, let them. It's not effecting anyone else, it's not degrading marriage or bringing the value of marriage down, because straight people have done enough damage to it already.

But the parades do annoy me. Yeah, you're gay, we get it, move on, who cares, not me. No reason for a parade.

I've known some gay guys and lots of bi and gay chicks in my years, some close friends of mine.

It's not really anyone else's business where someone likes to stick their dick or which holes they like to lick. The people that would insult, or worse assault, someone based on that are absolutely no different than racists.

That being said, I personally believe homosexuality is a choice the individual makes and not something genetic. *shrug* I don't judge anyone for that choice, but I do believe it was a conscious decision at some point in the persons life based purely on the fact that if it was genetic, evolution would have probably eliminated the "gay gene".

I've never been hit on by any gay guys and I'm thinking it's because I put off too much of a straight vibe. If anyone's ever been to West Hollywood (I know Rod has), it's quite gay. Lots of gay bars and shops up and down Santa Monica. I have friends that live out there and when we go visit, we usually end up walking through "boys town" on our way to the bars. In Cali, there's no smoking in the bars so all of these places have hundreds of gay guys standing out front smoking and we walk right down the sidewalk through them. This has happened at least a half dozen times and never once has any of them said word one to me (although they generally assume my wife and her friend are lesbians.) It could be that they simply don't find me attractive, but I like to believe that my skated up shoes, sagging khakis, two day old stubble and disctinct lack of metrosexuality is a dead giveaway that I'm straight to them. I think most gay guys have a pretty good Straightdar (The opposite of Gaydar.) and can tell if a person is straight or gay based on appearance.

*Shrug*

Anyway....

I usually try to stay away from controversial issues but since my wife and I had a close friend who died from HIV back in the late 90's, I thought I'd weigh in. BTW he was gay. His name was Brett and he was a brilliant local Playwright who passed before his time.

A person's gender or sexual preference was never an issue during our friendship. I am of the mindset that what goes on in someone's bedroom is their own business. Having said that, what does concern me is no matter what your lifestyle is, it's OK just don't push it on me or my family. Just as I'm Roman Catholic, I never try to push my beliefs on someone who lets say believes in Buddha or Mohammad.

Lets face it. There are good, decent and well respected gays as there are good, decent straights. There are also the opposite in each group. A good example is the issue of same sex marriage in California where the people spoke and voted against SSM. I had no problem with gay activists protesting until the protesting became violent. The Mormon Church was targeted and swastikas were painted on the building. This was done because of the church's doctrine forbids homosexuality.

The gay movement has always believed in Tolerance. lately that message has been lost because the ranks have been infiltrated by radicals who want nothing more than to create disruption and dissent. The majority of gays in the country are appalled by what's going on and are realizing this behavior will do nothing less than setting them back.

The bottom line for me is I'm OK with Civil Unions between same sex partners with the same civil rights as I enjoy, but disagree on same sex marriage outside that of one man and one woman as what my religion so dictates. The key here is, If I met a gay couple who were married in Mass. or Ct. I would treat them as I would anyone else as long as they treated me the same.

If the SSM issue were to come to a vote in my state I would vote against it. If the issue passed I would respect the voice of the people.

all i can say to this is that i dont think too many men have been beaten up for being straight by a bunch of gay men.

the reverse ???


just like any other unfortunate social injustice - sometimes the pendulum has to swing pretty far the other way until it finds the balance.

I'm flattered when women hit on me. I don't understand why people would be offended because someone shows an interest in them. It's a compliment.

It can be complimentory because gay men are picky as fuck. But I'd be pretty uncomfortable due to a horrible past experience.

I agree with you 100%. I still like guys alot but i had to mellow out b.c i have children now with a woman i do love a whole lot. You cant change who you are though. I'll always be bisexual and think of men as attractive.

Im sorry about the jerks that didnt tell you they were gay until that long into the relationship :mad: those type of people just suck. Im sure its not you that turns any man gay though. Some people just dont realize it until they try it with a person of the opposite sex. It sucks though that they didnt even consider your feelings!
