I saw one the other day that said "Jesus loves you, but all the rest of us think your an @$$hole."

Proverbs 16:31 - A gray head is a crown of glory; It is found in the way of righteousness.

Proverbs 20:29 - The glory of young men is their strength, And the honor of old men is their gray hair.

I'm a gay teenager (most of you already know that, anyways, continuing on) I recently came out about 2 months ago, and nobody cares that I'm gay (My family's supportive). However, my mom doesn't even want me to have any relationships, even just as friends, with other guys. When my brother was my age, he was allowed to date whoever he wanted. I talked to my mom, and she specifically said she is completely okay with me being gay. But apparently relationships are a no-no?
What hurts the most is, to be quite literally honest, of her children, she can trust me the most. And she has, more so than her other children. I've given her more trust than anyone, but now she's putting restrictions to my life-- I honestly think that she thinks that all I want is to get some, and that's so low. I'm not even like that-- at all. It really agitates me and I don't know what to do.

OK my friend is very close (a best friend) and she is rather sensitive. She also is totally innocent. She has not had a bf yet but I know she does like guys. But she likes me too now so it's a little awkward and I feel that it's a part my fault from being too affectionate. I mean now we kiss when we say goodbye and sometimes hello and I didn't stop it because it didn't bother me and I do feel close if that makes sense?

But I picked up on her having more feelings for me and I think that we should talk but I'm not sure how? I just want her to know that she IS close to me and I don't want to Not be friends but we are friends and I have a bf (she knows him) and I just can't go there with her.

Can you give me some advice how to talk? I really don't want to hurt her feelings or anything and this is a new situation for me. But I'm sure this is new to her too. *sigh*

Paul Henreid played Victor Lazlo in Casablanca, and also played opposite Bette Davis in Now Voyager. Charles Boyer was the sensual star of Algiers and Gaslight, among other films. In my opinion these two were the most romantic actors ever. I have never read anything negative about either man, and your opinion will be appreciated. I still love to watch their old movies.

My friend absolutely adores drag queens! (And she is a huge gay rights activist.) For Christmas, I want to get her a new drag queen movie on DVD. She has already seen Connie and Carla, as well as Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. I'm looking for something new for her. Any recommendations?

Please keep it PG-13 or lower. Thanks! Happy holidays!

Just as blacks have the priveledge to use the "n" word. Like I use it once in a while to describe the town and economy I live in, especially when I'm frustrated (white trash) or to describe Britney Spears.

After being married for 40+ years and you and your spouse start the aging process, do you notice it right away? Does it bother you? Or do you still see that person you fell in love with years ago to look the same?

when a man is having sex with another man but he tells his woman he is not gay or bisexual and tells her he is her man no-one elses what would he be when he is actually having sex with another man but regards himself as his womans man and regards her as his woman. Statements have been made such as "all you think about is me with another woman, you need to think of yourself as a man, I don't think of you like that with other women" I'm sure that was said as a clue to whatever he is. What do you think he is and what is going on here? He often refers to himself as been pretty but also goes on about he could click his fingers and get any woman, this appears to be a clue to his sexuality too. What do you think we are dealing with here?

Because there are so many religious nuts that want to "preserve the sanctity of marriage" I propose the following: Marriage would only be handled by religions. If a couple were married, then there marriage would only be recognized by their religion. The government would handle civil unions. Hetero and homosexual couples could get civil unions and would reap all the benefits of current legal marriages (tax breaks, inheritance, power of attorney...). A civil union could be accompanied along with a marriage. This way couples wouldn't have to have 2 services (religious and legal). People can still keep marriage sacred and still abide by the law of separation of church and state. What does everyone else think?

Guys looking like clowns. Sagging their jeans and wearing big T-Shirts.

Girls looking slutty. Wearing super tight low rise jeans. And wearing tight shirts with no bottom, exposing their belly buttons.

Yesterday I asked about assumptions of Black women: I tackled some stereotypes that arent true such as

Black women being unnattractive and out of shape (not true)

Black women being portrayed falsely in Rap videos: (Black girls arent hos)

and Black women being dumb (totally not true)

I actually said that there are plenty of beautiful, educated and hard working Black women that arent getting any credit - MY QUESTION WAS DELETED!!

Whats going on here? I didnt do anything wrong but yet somone felt my question violated something. This is ridiculous!

Did you remember that today is the sixty sixth anniversary of Pearl Harbor? I wonder how many men and women who were there are still living? I was three at the time, and my dad was in the Merchant Marines. Not in Hawaii, however.

With your mate, or anybody else? Mine and I try to have a real date night every once in a while, dressing up and going out to a romatic dinner or a movie by ourselves. Sometimes he brings me flowers to start the evening. Sometimes we just stay home and rent a movie and share a bottle of wine, but we always make a special date.
