Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender - March 2007

where 300 Greek warriors from Sparta managed to delay the 60,000-strong Persian invading army. Historically, the Spartan army was made up in part by soldiers bound romantically to other soldiers fighting on the same battlefield.

As in many other historic films especially those about the ancient world or heroic warriors and there gay history has been erased from 300 and replaced with negative stereotypes. From Troy to Spartacus to Ben Hur, queer history is usually downplayed and has often gone missing entirely.

in the 2004 film Troy, starring Brad Pitt, Achilles and Patroclus were demoted from lovers to mere cousins. No doubt warriors usually become mad with grief every time one of their cousins is killed, as Achilles did when Patroclus was slain by the Trojan warrior Hector
We talk about our population having 5% or 8% of the people with homosexual tendencies. At one time in Sparta the men were 100% homosexual/bisexual

Okay do you think that gay/bi guyswould be aceptted by god...if they choose to act upon what they like which is guys? I mean I'm a gay guy....and I strongly believe in Jesus Christ...but I just cant help it because I find guys attractive. I mean It even seem weird to me of how I can see a woman and a guy at the sametime...and my feelings go towards the guy. Did th devil get a hold of me when I was young...I'm like so freaked out I like the same sex....its just so odd

How come gay guys are nicer and more polite then straight guys?

And why can't the straight guys behave better?

If you're a gay guy then please answer this question either on here or in a message.

I can't believe it? I grew up with the constant fear of my "sissiness" being noticed and paraded around for all to laugh at me. Aren't all country music singers and listeners redneck racists from the South or with southern predjudices left over from the 1800's or 1950's at least who want to keep blacks, Jews and homosexuals separate or in prison? Really? I can't believe it. I've been wrong all these years? And you gay cowboys out there don't mind listening to Willie Nelson or Travis Trit or whoever (see I don't know their names because I've hated country singers all my life for their backward bigoted ways), and everything is hunky dorry with that. And you go to their concerts and don't get stomped on by real manly men who hate gays? Even in Northern California? Really? When did these violent religious good ol' boys from the South, from the Country, stop hating gays? Because I can't believe you're not as angry at them as I am?

Again this is for my theology class discussion. If any of the questions I have asked make you feel very emotional in any way please tell me why so I can understand other people's points of view better. Thanks.

i'm a male to female transsexual, & as part of my transition I've decided to get breast implants. After meeting with the surgeon several times, and based on my frame/size, we've decided on 36 C. I'm happy with that... sorta medium-to-large size. My surgery will be in May (coinciding with my living as a woman full time).
So, even though I'll feel complete, more womanly, to have breasts, I know there will be a pricetag attached... men staring and ogling. Don't get me wrong, I love men and WANT them to find me sexy and attractive, I don't want to just be a piece of meat!

Girls, do you just get used to it after a while, or does it still bother you when some creepy guy stares at your chest (forgetting that you do indeed have a face)?
I also wonder if the weight of my chest will take time getting used to! I mean, I do wear a bra, but there hasn't really been anything "in it" so far >:)

A post op transsexual, I mean. Obviously it'd be impossible to hide being pre op unless you had no sex life >:)

I've always been upfront with the men (and woman) I've been involved with. I may not always tell them I'm a transsexual within 5 minutes of meeting them, but if the relationship is going somewhere--even if it's just to the bedroom--I will be honest about my pre-op status. And honestly, most guys I've told either don't mind, or get over it pretty quickly.

But--once I'm post op, I'm not sure if my opinion will change. Obviously if a relationship got really serious I would reveal all, but if you're just dating someone casually, or it's a one night stand, do these people have a right to know? I'll be a WOMAN then, just as much as one who was born a woman. I know a post op transsexual girl in California who strips at a straight strip joint, and the men who drool over her might beat her up if they knew she was once a man. Can you blame her for not revealing her past?

This is really crap i've been trying the same question countless times but it does n't get posted! What shite is this? When bloody racist assholes post all day and night.
My question was but i doubt it will work was how can Christianity allow Gay bishops? What crazy shite is this? It seems to me this whole messed up world is run by gays.

He is an idiot. I'm a lesbian and I was so close to killing him when he said it. Can I get him suspended for making that coment? He said " I'd rape a lesbian chick, like you, to turn her straight." What can I do to him?

When I was a teenage I fell in love with two guys, I married one and the other one ended up going to prison. My husband has been passed away now for seven years and Ive tried dating but keep thinking about the one in prison. I'm still in love with him and have been talking to him all the time he's been in. I'm now in a new relationship with a female and he's going to be getting out soon. I love my girlfriend and him but don't know what to do. My feelings for both of them are very strong. What would you do stay with the one your with now or go to your old love?

I was at the market this morning and two men walked past holding hands, stopped and hugged and kissed each other goodbye and went their separate ways. Now I do not see a problem with this, but there were people in front of me making comments of how disgusting and shameful this was.

What the hell is the problem with it? they are just 2 humans in love!

What is so wrong about it?

Suggestions??
