Last night I saw a "flaming" gay man in a homosexual relationship say to his ex girlfriend: "we would have been married and had ten babies by now if our parents didn't make such a big deal about us seeing each other".

Also, being married, having children, then going to a homosexual lifestyle is very common.

How do you explain the 'choice' and ability to stay in heterosexual relationships for decades then go exclusively to homosexual ones. Or for that matter, bisexuality.

How does that differ with other homosexuals who have never had sex with a woman or man ever?
Is Elton John, for example, less a homosexual, Freddie Mercury, (both married previously), or Anne Heiche?
How does genetics and environment more than anything play a role in behavior? Sexual or otherwise?

Noted black economist Walter Williams points out that people practice discrimination in choosing friends and spouses...and that marriage has much more of an impact, economically, on racial groups(because people generally pick mates of their own race) than any hiring or contracting process.

If you choose to marry person A instead of person B, person B may experience loss while person A enjoys advantages.

The point being, that if the government continues its trend/efforts to eliminate "discrimination"--that is, free choice--in all aspects of society with EEOC lawyers and affirmative action and so on, then soon it will be forcing people to marry someone outside their race in order to promote "equal opportunity" and quotas, etc.

I had a dream that my husband and I were driving through this city in TN where I'm from and then a subdivision. We ended up knocking on someones door to ask if we could look around inside to get the scoop on these condos. The gentlemen was single and had no problem with it. I went in alone and looked around. He told me about it and its cost then showed me back yard, Something clicked when we looked into each others eyes and he gave all his info name number address etc. Told me to call him sometime. It ended up that some how in my dream we became a couple that was completely in love. I mean I felt complete and whole with this man in my dream. Happier then ever. There was no bad feelings at all with this relationship. Not jealousy, or non-trusting, nothing. A feeling I have never felt in real life it was that different. What does this dream mean? I have searched everywhere.

I have noticed this just walking around,and,I find it sad and intriguing that many people seem to have full-length conversations with themselves,without noticing anyone else,even if they're on a bus/train or something,particularly in large cities.What causes this?(I don't mean people who fit the stereotype of "mad" either)

A guy told me NOT to think of another guy who's his friend. Well, I'm curious about his friend,,and I've asked a few questions about his friend. He only answered one question about his friend and then told me NOT ever to think of his friend. (I was going to meet with this guy but not with his friend.) Do you think he was trying to protect his friend? What's your interpretation? Thanks for your input.
