Why do people say things with the word "closet"? Like, "coming out of the closet" ... what is up with that? I'm really confused! As a straight person, I feel a bit somewhat sorry that homosexual people have to put up with this ridiculous thing...

Thanks for answers in advance! =)

I had this friend that I wronged. We are both seeing someone but developed feelings for each other. We ended up messing around. Anyway, our bf's didn't know and just thought we were good friends. We talked everyday and were very close. We went out (all of us) to the bar. I knew I shouldn't go because I knew I would get jealous seeing him with his bf who is very controlling of him.
We got separated through the night and then started texting each other. He was asking where I was, and now I was drunk and being a jerk and said if he would break his leash he could come find us (me and my bf). Anyway, the drunker I got, the more pissed at him I got for not talking with me even though we all went out together. So, when me and my bf got ready to leave, I found my friend and told his bf everything and tried starting a fight.
I really screwed up and I sent an apology to him. Is it possible for us to ever be friends again? There is more to the story but this is the gist of it.

I'm originally from Senegal and moved to Chicago six years ago. Most of the students in my school are african american. The drop out rates are enormous and those that do stay seem to have a nonchalant attitude when it comes to education. A lot of them usually just sit in the back with their headphones on. I'm appalled of the total disregard of the free high school education that most people in the world would die to have (me used to be one of them). Asians, middle easterners, africans all emigrate here, usually with little money, and are successful because they value education and make something of themselves. The key to success anywhere is an education and 52% of AA drop out. I think people have negative connotations for african americans not because they're black but because how they approach education and life in general and seem to be more of a burden rather than being of any help to society. And no, I'm not a racist, I have darker skin than any you. What do you all think?

I've spent most of the day on Y!Answers and have seen a lot of folks call homosexuals "homos". When I was younger this was a derogatory term but people seem to be usuing it everywhere (not just here on Y!A) and not only in intentionally mean ways. Should I be offended or just get over it?

Ok, i'm married now, but this question comes from my single friends and from when I was single too? Why do straight women get upset when you hit on them at a gay club? I realize that they go there to keep from getting hit on by men, but they are in a gay club - do they really think "gay" is just fun boys who help pick out clothes? I can't tell that you are straight, gay-dar is really hard to tune when the room is full of us!

i know many people who non-blacks who only befriend or date people part black because they believe the less black you are the nicer you are. What does color & races have to do with morality? My friend believes only dark-skinned black girls are haters and only biracial or lighter complexioned black guys are stable boyfriends, more devout, and more likely to go to college.

sorry
but i know many people who marry out of their race and they want to their children to identify as fully one race. they get offended when their children say that mixed or half some other ethnicity. it's stupid. if you wanted your kid to be 100% your race or identify as 100% a race then why didn't you just marry someone of your race.

I am asking this question without bias. I don't care what you think of me personally, but I would like to hear your truthful opion.
Why , if I am an inferior person as you suggest, do you care about my immortal soul? Does your God teach hatred and intolerance? And, by the way, are you so divinely blessed that you presume you can judge for God who is worthy of his grace? If you feel that you can answer this question honestly and intelligently please do so. I really want to understand how you feel.

Suppose you are a guy (and a top) looking for a long term relationship with another guy. Now, you meet Mr. Perfect at a park. How do you know that he is a bottom? Do you just ask him at the first day? I mean, wouldnt it be weird to develop a sexual relationship between two tops? Or is there any ways to tell whether a guy is a top or bottom?
Please, do hate me for asking it.

I've noticed when a homosexual asks a question (or a straight person asks a question about homosexuality) and people put that they don't agree with being gay that people tend to not mind. But, when someone puts that being gay is a sin they get like 10 of those "thumbs down" things. Personally, I think people know the truth that the Bible is true and what is says goes which is why they give you a "thumbs down" for disagreeing. Are people that lame these days that they will do anything to disagree with the Bible? Does it threaten you that bad that you have to be against it and anyone who reads it or believes it? So sad...
