In relatively recent history there were two Republican presidents (the term is used loosely for one) whose inaction or action(s) seriously and adversely impacted the GLBT community: Ronald Reagan and
George W. Bush.

Of the two, which individual would you consider be the most hostile toward our community?

Tell me who do you find uglier?

The guy the looks like a model, but often self absorbed in himself, egotistical, and rude? Who does nothing to help out charities or people in need.

The sexual deviant in an open relationship who is only out for his sexual gratification? Who ussually ends up with diseases and passes it on to his partners?

The Drag Queen who in make up sings and raises money for charity. That when she takes off her mak-up and rates at best a 6?

The homophobe that hate all of us. Preaches the bible like some sort or self appointed messanger of God?

Or the hillbilly who's missing a couple of teeth, not very smart, but tried to make people smile?

Almost everyone has heard of this... the idea that LGBTQ people can spot other people of similar orientation. I think it's a load of crap myself, as straight people don't have straightdar, and being gay doesn't give us special powers. Anyway, what are your thoughts?

I’m referring specifically to a phenomenon involving a significant amount of Mexicans and Mexican Americans who are Mestizo. A Mestizo is of both of Amerindian and Spanish decent. I’ve noticed on my trips to Mexico that many people, who I know are Mestizo, deny their Native American heritage. I understand this somewhat seeing as how Natives are on the lowest rung of the social latter. However, I have met many Mestizos’ from the US who completely deny their Spanish heritage, and oddly enough claim they are full blooded Aztec. I say that’s odd because 90% of the Aztec Population was wiped out during the conquest, and even though they held the power in pre-colonial America they were still a minority among other tribes. I suppose it could be true, but it’s not likely all are Aztec. I usually hear some one say something like this: “The Spanish came and took our land and converted us to there religion. We are speaking the language of the conquerors.” Has anyone else noticed this? Why do think this has occurred? (Note, I’ve said some not all, I don’t stereotype. I also didn’t say they have to like both their backgrounds only to accept they are from both.)

My friend is Afghany, and when she marks her origin, she puts Asian. She lived in Germany her whole life, and there they considered her Asian. Our teacher told us that she is considered caucasian here (in America). Is that true?

In the past I have watched gay porn, and enjoyed it to some extent. The thing is, when I'm out in the real world I don't have an attraction to other guys. So, what do you think the problem is?

I asked how come it is that most (not ALL) gay men talk with that voice, ya know like soft, feminine, with a slight lisp? The only answer I got said that that was a stereotype, if thats so then how come the only gay men I have ever come across all talk in that voice?

I mean, politically correct people complain about damn everything. You can't even say white milk, black forest cake or brown sugar.

I'm really not trying to be mean or offend anyone, I have respect for gays even though I don't believe in homosexuality. I have always wondered though, how come gay men always talk with that voice? You know that kind of feminine, lispy, soft, kind of voice? Just wondering. I know that not ALL gay men talk that way but the ones I have met do. Thanks!

Just curious, how many of you feel that you are more mature and wise than those your same age. I know being gay I am much more open minded than my friends and am much more accepting and understanding. Anyone else feel like a life experience has molded you into this kind of person? I feel like a 30 year old in a 22 year old body lol :)
