A major roadblock in gays and lesbians getting the right to marry is the implication that they'll be granted full rights to raise children, but a great deal of people who are against gay marraige (who are wise enough to exclude religious implications, since no one cares about what God thinks anymore these days) are afraid that gays who raise children will raise them homosexual.

Has anyone yet thought of conducting an experiment where exceptionally young foster children are given into custody of gay, lesbian, and straight parents and their behavior and development is carefully monitored over the course of their lives? It's already upsetting to enough people that gays come out of straight homes, but don't we need to carefully study which household brings about which sexuality? If the results of the experiment follow no recognizable pattern, then it would be proven that sexuality of the children is NOT a result of the sexuality of the parents, and gays could be allowed to have kids.

but I don't know how to approach the subject with my nearest and dearest who DO agree with it. The reasons are that it is a Christian festival and in my humble opinion should be there for Christians to celebrate the life of Jesus Christ. Not for kids to EXPECT presents by the bucket full. Also, I hate the way that companies promote items as 'Must have' for Cristmas. Pressuring parents into buying them for their kids. Many people get into debt so they can have a 'Good christmas' What about the rest of the year when you can't afford to do anything family orientated because you are paying off the debt of last Christmas?
But I digress, my question to you good people is... How do I explain my feelings to my nearest and dearest WITHOUT sounding like I think they are mugs for falling for the 'Great Christmas Con'?
Chrismas is about Jesus Christ ( should you believe in him) NOT about spending loads of money to show how much you love someone. There are many ways to show your love.

......I hear the complain all the time: ,,A woman is not a piece of meat.'' Uh, yeah that's right. If I want meat I'll go to the store. Besides, only cannibals look at anyone as a piece of meat.
......We are men... well straight men. If a man doesn't look at you that way, he's looking at your brother then.
......Now you may not want to be looked at like that, but it's part of being in public. Just like when some crazy guy is handing out fliers or whatever. Goes with the territory.
......Anyways, you'll be very appreciative when that's your man and he's looking at you like that.
......Yeah we gotta have manners about it, but if your hot, that is one of the highest compliments you could give, without saying a word.

I like the thought of it, all I've done so far is kiss, and I'd like to do more, but when I'm around other ladies I get really nervous, and I cry. Why?? When I'm not around them, I can't wait, but then when the opportunity arises, I choke. The opportunity hasn't risen in a while, and that makes me sad too. how do you meet women? I would over the internet, but that would be too much pressure because I wouldn't know the person at all on top of that. Help!

I'm interested in an intelligent discussion here PLEASE: I am very conservative and I honestly want to know why it is necessary for the gay community to be known or identified by their sexual orientation. My biggest concerns are:
1.) The more "open" the gay lifestyle becomes a part of our society, the more confusing puberty becomes for children.
2.) Kids will experiment more with sexual partners because the gay lifestyle is more accepted.
3.) The message will be sent to our kids that the gay lifestyle is an "option".
Once again, I am serious with my question and I'm not going to rant about religion here because that is personal, but I do have valid concerns. I worry that there are a lot of damaged kids out there because of divorce, sexual abuse, ect. that turn to the gay lifestyle for acceptance and to be noticed. I have spoken with gay people and what I have found is that every gay woman has been sexually abused and for gay men it is about sex. Thanks for your answers.

If using the term "civil union" got us full legal rights and privledges of marriage, would it be smarter to wait for another day to battle the social implications of "separate but equal"?

I ask because I suspect that there are many who simply oppose the term "marriage," and because progress is often more effectively made in baby steps than one giant leap.

Your thougths?

I was walking to school today and some guy driving by shot his head out of the car, wolf whistled, and screamed "Damn", and then sped away. Why do they do that? Do they think it makes us want them, or something? Is it supposed to makes us feel good? Because it irritates the hell out of me.
