I was sexually abused from ages 4 to 14 when i ran away from home. It was by my uncle who lived with us and still lives with my 'parents' I am lesbian but when i was 16 i was in a relationship with a man for a few months we had to break it off when his wife found out, a few weeks later i found i was pregnant. I had my daughter who lived with my sister for a while. After that i began dating only women and although sex was part of the liasons i felt and still feel guilty afterward. often times i would cry mysdelf to sleep after it. As i said in my last post i have had alot of good fortune but i can't shake this feeling of guilt when i have sex witrh my girlfriend. Mostly its because even when the abuse was happening as bad as it was it felt good. And i can't forgive myself for that. My girlfriend wants to use a strap on on me because i have NEVER let her in our entire 8 year relationship. i use one on her regularly but i can't stand the thought of being penetrated again even if it is

I am thinking about telling my friend tomorrow that I'm gay. I've known her for the past 8 years or so, and she is also married to a good friend of almost 20 years. Should I let her tell him or should I ask that I tell him myself?

She broke my heart and my dads heart to go off and date women. As a child Yes I hated her so much for making my dad cry like that, now People are like you should support her and love her and all this, What about the train wreck she left behind. I feel like if I accept her I am betraying my father cause no one stood up for him, I was to young to understand. I talk with her now but I hate her girlfriends prolly for no other reason then shes with my mom. Whats wrong with that? My mom has the nerve to bring the other chick around my father, I've kicked her out of our home evey time. I don't know why I can't get past this or even if I should. To be honest If I can't get past this I don't think I will be able to accept Gay people as a whole. This is a serious hurdle I don't know how to get past.

I grew up in a very abusive home you name it, its ben done to me. I ran away when i was 14 and i lived on the street until i met the woman who would later adopt me as her own child. I started modeling when i was 16 and I've been all over the world. I'm currently looking to start my own modeling agency. I have all this good fortune in my life and yet i cannot sleep without dreaming about what has happened in my past. I wake up sweating, crying, shaking on occasion i'm so sick that i throw up. And i often go into deep deep depressions that can last days at a time. Recently i got into an argument with my girlfriend of 8 years she accused me of being so wrapped up in my past that i don't give her the attention that she needs.she says my depression is hard to deal with and suggested that i get over what happened to me. I have been to countless psychiatrist and been on countless anti-depressants but no matter what my past is still front and center. Its putting a strain on our relationship

I don't understand homosexuality. If someone could please explain how you live a lifestyle that you do not choose,

or that some choose but not all,

or that some are partially and partially not,

or the principles involved in being homosexual.

How can you be homosexual when you're born and not be sexually active as a child?

How can you subscribe to a sexual lifestyle in childhood or even know that you have a sexual orientation, if you don't have sex at that age?

What does attraction have to do with sexual orientation?

Can you be a homosexual eunuch (Celibate?)

I just don't understand. Maybe since you live the lifestyle you can shed some light on these questions. I cannot accept what I don't at least have some basic understadning of. Just share with me the principles.

But please if you want me to read your answers, answer seriously. Give me the opportunity to grow.

If someone makes a statement about an ethnic group and it is true but the ethnic group didn't like it, would that make the person who made the statement prejudiced?

I've read alot of people's answers on this saying that they 'used to be gay' and are now straight or bi, some say they used to be bi and are now gay or straight and so on. Do you, in your opinion, think this is possible, I personaly don't, I just cant see it happening, mabey these people just had a bad experience with someone and subconsiously decided not to like that sex in general, mabey it's a concious decision. But I think, if the right person came along, they would be back to their previous sexuality. I just don't think you can turn off your sexuality like a light switch. If we could every gay person who goes through a bad time with it, coming out and whatnot would choose to be straight, it's less complicated. Mabey I'm wrong, what do you think?

Mel Gibson has been a very outspoken homophobe for years. He casts himself as the holier than thou Catholic, producing Passion of Christ, speaking badly about "Gay Hollywood." He has gotten his just desserts as far as I can see...the great Mel Gibson, ranting and raving in a drunken stupor about JEWS! I believe that his Christ was a Jew, I know for a fact that Jew are prominent in Hollywood, and there are one heck of a lot of Jews everywhere. I hope he is now down in the heap with Tom Cruise. He has been a particularly disliked "star" in my book, for he had everything, and chose to use it against Gays whenever possible. Time wounds all heals, and his time has come. Coverup and all.

I've been flicking through a magazine and saw an article about a young Muslim girl being suspened from school because she wouldn't wear a school uniform.
Surely regardless of religion we should all abide by laws rules and regulations. Is it right that Hindu people don't have to wear crash helmets because of their Turbans, or kids can't go to school with their heads shaved or with bright pink hair.
Surely if we are part of a school, team club etc and it permitts us to wear a uniform we should, or is it nowadays that we should be entitled to wear what we like?
Should religion or beliefs mean that it ' one rule for 1 and another rule for everyone else'?

I have heard comments from Bollywood actors and statements made in movies like Bend it like Beckham saying that people from India would never date or generally socialize with people who are black or African American. I know this isn't true for every single individual person who is from India but I've come across this too many times and rather curious about why this possible prejudice exists.

A phobia is simply a fear of something. There's no moral dimension to it. Is this simply the misuse of language or are gay people really suggesting that those who don't like them are afraid of them?
