    I knew I was gay as soon as I learned there was such a thing as gay people. I was 15. It’s possible you could just be going through an experimental phase … or you could be gay. You’re the only person who can answer that question. As for dealing with a prejudiced community, I know all about that. My advice: Unless you are absolutely, 100% sure your family will be supportive and accepting, don’t tell them you’re gay until you’re in your own place, supporting yourself financially. If that means waiting until you’re in college, or even when you’ve graduated from college, so be it. You can come out to friends on an individual basis, when you think they’re ready. If there’s a gay and lesbian center in your city, you can make some friends there. But, please–don’t jeopardize your

    I’m gay and I have lots of straight friends. I think you should hang out with the people you love, and love the people you hang out with. Just be loving and be a good friend! That’s the important thing.

    Any straight guy who would call you names just because you won’t sleep with him is an idiot and he does not deserve you. You’re gay if you want to sleep with women, and that’s OK. But if you don’t want to sleep with an idiot, that makes you smart.

    A lot of straight men are nice. It’s just that, to them, you are a potential sex partner, and they feel they have to impress you because they’re insecure. Gay men are more relaxed around you because they don’t think they have to impress you with their sexual prowess. But get a gay man around a hot male specimen, and he might just turn into a show-off jerk just like your straight male friends.

    Think about straight men: Lots of them are attracted to certain “types” of women. Talk to one, he’ll tell you he likes tall women, or black women, or skinny women, or redheads, or women with big butts. It’s the same with gay men. You just have a favorite type, that’s all. It would be unusual if you were attracted to every male you saw, wouldn’t it? On the bright side, there are lots of gay white men who really REALLY LOVE black men. So you shouldn’t have much trouble.

    I’m a gay man and I don’t like anal sex. Giving or receiving. Some people find this surprising. But they also think it’s surprising to learn that lots of heterosexual couples LOVE anal sex.

    There’s lots of evidence suggesting homosexuality is determined at birth. Some people say it’s a choice. Who knows? However, I do know that religion is a choice. So is being homophobic. If there were a test that could show my child was going to grow up to be a homophobic Baptist, would I have an abortion? I’d have to think about it …

    in reply to: Offending smokers with “non-smoking” laws #22081

    I try to be polite about smoking, so I always ask before I light up. If I choose to go to a non-smoking establishment, I assume I’ll just have to smoke outside, and I’m not offended at all. I don’t throw my butts on the ground, and even outside, I try to stand as far away from nonsmokers as possible. I am irritated, though, that the state government wants to make all bars in my state non-smoking. I think if a bar owner (and the bar patrons) want the bar to be non-smoking, they should be able to make that decision. But what if a bar owners (and the patrons) want the bar to be a smoking establishment? They should be allowed to make that decision, too. In my state, if you go outside (to smoke) you can’t take your drink. I just want to have a place I can go to where I can have a dri

    I think they’re hot. Really. A man in a mullet looks like he needs sex and if he does, he can just come to me.

    Love at first sight may exist but even if it does, don’t discount love at second sight! When I first met the love of my life, I didn’t think we had much in common. Finally, a friend introduced us and said we should talk. After we talked for two hours, I was totally in love! Four years later, I’m still totally in love. So it may not have been love at first sight, but it was true love for sure.

    in reply to: Why is gay marriage illegal? #22096

    People who say marriage is “threatened” by gays and lesbians are misguided. I think they’re probably just trying to cover up their own prejudices. Gays and lesbians already form long-term romantic partnerships which really are “marriages” in every respect except for the fact that they don’t have a piece of paper from the government saying so. Some churches do not want to allow same-sex couples to marry. This is their decision based on their beliefs, and nobody should interfere with it. However, the government belongs to all of us, not just people in those religions. Same-sex marriage would allow gay and lesbian couples to have the same government-granted legal rights as heterosexual couples, but would not infringe on the religious rights of churches which chose not to allow same-

    in reply to: Transgender #22085

    A person who is transgender is happier behaving, dressing and acting as a person of the opposite gender. A transgender man is happier as a woman, and vice-versa. He or she may be sexually attracted to either men or women, or both–it just has to do with the transgendered person’s own gender identity, not his or her spouse. A gay or lesbian person is happier behaving, dressing and acting as a person of his or her own gender. A gay man likes being a man, and a gay woman likes being a woman. They are attracted to people of the same gender. In this case, it has nothing to do with the gay person’s gender identity; it is all about the gender of his or her spouse. To sum up: To transgender people, it’s about who they want to spend the rest of their life AS. To gay people, it’s about who they want to spend the rest of their life WITH.

    Some people say they feel threatened by same-sex marriages because they think God wants them to make sure gays and lesbians never get equal marriage rights. In reality, they aren’t stupid enough to really believe the gays are threatening their own marriages; they’re just using the “threat to traditional marriage” act to scare people into voting for anti-gay politicians.
