I can understand if a really flamboyant guy is hitting on you or something, that could be a little awkward if you're straight. However, most people who were perfectly comfortable in their own sexuality would brush it off shortly afterwards. I get along fine with gay guys and girls alike and I'm straight as an arrow! I can look at a guy and think "he's handsome" without thinking sexually about it at all. I don't understand why most people aren't the same.

Explain this..

My brother, who is 23, is gay.
My brother has never had anything bad happen to him (i.e. abuse as a child). My parents raised us as Methodists. We were at church every Sunday. My parents are still married. We are what you would call a picture perfect family.
My brother came out when he was 20 years old. He told my mom how he had always know from when he was little. He would tell us how he remembers at age 13 spending the night at his best friends house and laying there in bed and getting nervous cause he was so close to a boy. It would gross him out and he would run to the bathroom and throw up. Later, in his teens, he tried all kinds of stuff. Straight porn, therapy, going to a preacher to remove the "demon", he even tried hypnosis.
He is still gay.
So tell me.. how did he choose this life?
Why did "choose" the lifestyle that is not accepted by many people, religions, cultures..
Why did he "choose" the life where people constantly tease, ridicule you? Explain

these 13-17 yr olds are posting the "Anyone wanna chat?" questions?

Im bored at work most of the day, so chatting doesnt bother me. Then come to find out they are like 13 or 15 and it freaks me out.

Anyone else experience this problem? I think if they are gonna ask the question, they should post their age up to as a warning they are jail bait!

reposting this with different clues...

So I'm in summer school taking a math class to catch up from when I was sick and in my class is this really cute guy.. nothing special but cute... anyways he's sitting at this table with 5 really really pretty girls (clue one that he is gay... gay guys hangout with really hot girls). Anyways he's sitting there laughing with them and we sorda but not really glanced at eachother a few times... he might of caught me looking at him... so math class begin and I realize during it he starts really sorda flirting with this girl and I was like oh crap... great he's straight... but then I thought about it and I flirt like that with my friends that are girls too, so maybes theres hope... anyways he really seems like my type (lookwise, and from what his personality gave off... he isnt flaming or anything... like I doubt he lies rainbows and stuff which is a plus) any pointers figuring it out... or start talking to him? Think he's gay?

I really don't get it? Right next to the American flag and a few other nation flags. I was really upset, not because of what the flag stands for so much as it's up there for no real reason. I'm Norwegian, where's my flag?(jk)

I think if a college is going to fly a flag it should be for the country it's in. Not to make a group of people happy.

Can a woman or a girl ease the pain of being lonely? As a woman I have never been able to touch any woman who I loved and adored. It was torture.

I just want to heal this sorrow by finding a woman friend as a pen pal. A woman who can love me and accepts my love. I just want to share emotions and memories and perhaps our voice and .....

Please answer if you can be generous with your time with this lonely woman...

I've noticed today that in here the hate is coming from all sides today, it's here everyday, but it's really bad today! People who are asking totally innocent, insightful questions are being attacked by both gay people & the haters. People who are answering with really good answers are getting a ton of thumbs down. I know the thumb ups/down don't really mean too much, but still! What's going on in here? How do we stop the hate in here?

Does someone just need a hug?

Honestly, LGBT people are the only segment of society that the culture at large allows ad hominem attacks upon. How many comedians have we heard that continue to bash us in the name of "comedy"? How many recording artists casually insult us without raising any eyebrows? How many politicians think nothing of declaring that our values do not compare favourably with the majority? The continued approval for this type of "culture" only shows that our culture is not valued the same as other cultures. LGBT culture is a culture that is stigmatized across the lines of all other cultures, and is still viewed as an acceptable object of derision by all.

Thoughts, please?

My brother is gay, and I love him more than ever. I accept him for who is, not how he chooses to live his life.....I have not seen him in a few years, and he is now here to visit. I planned for he and his mate to join myself and my boyfriend for dinner, however my boyfriend is being so mean about it. Any suggestions, on how to get him to just respect the situation instead of being so closed minded? I love him very much, and dumping him is not the solution....I just need some serious advice. Thank you.

Looking for some feedback on lyrics before I debut this at a local piano bar. To the tune of "Do-Re-Mi" -SOUND OF MUSIC.
(Spoken)
A song about the loves I have known ...
(Sung)
I'll start at the very beginning,
A very good place to start
At first, it was only Joe and me ...
Joe and me ...
And what a night it happened to be ...
Joe and me
(Spoken)
Then there was Ray and Phil and Bo and ...
Wait, let me make this easier!
(Sings)
Joe, a dear
But he was queer
For Ray, the Baptist preacher's son
Me, alone, left by myself
Til Phil, a convict on the run
Then Bo, who tied me to the bed
And ... (shrugs) the guy who followed Bo
The twins, who sandwiched me like bread
Still, I'm pining so for Joe ... oh, oh, oh ...
(Repeat)

What do you think?

I have no objections to homosexuality but whenever I hear people speak about homosexuality being right or wrong, these conversations are always oriented towards sexual acts and not love. A lot of justification for homosexuality being wrong revolves around "flawed biology" and or "flawed psychology" that influences a person to commit lustful acts with people of their own gender. These "theories" then go on to explain how this is counter productive to society properly functioning. I look at these kind of statements and wonder, Where's the love? These 'theories" are completely detached from the concept of love, which I think is pretty important for society to function. People have lustful relationships that are devoid of love and commitment, this is destructive.

So for the Hypothetical reason that I need convincing, would people share some convincing evidence that homosexuals can be in loving committed relationships just as heterosexuals can?

I think homophobic people need to see this.

The earth is flat!! The sun orbits around teh earth!! Dinosaurs did not, I repeat did not exist!! Homosexuality is a sickness, thus curable!! No animals other than humans exhibit homosexual behaviour!! (well some look at each other but they don't have sex).

I have actually read some of these statements on YA this morning. What is wrong with these people??!? Why can't they just accept that all people are not the same (thank God!)?
What is it they are so afraid of? There's actually one idiot on here who stated, as if he was an expert that men become gay because they were raised in homes with no father and grew too close to Mom.

Sorry, I'm gonna take some aspirin and calm down now. I won't let the flat earthers get to me today.

Ok, first off I am a lesbian; I live with my girlfriend in a house that we both rent. Next door to us lives our landlord’s son. He’s an alright guy but as of lately he’s been bizarre. He’s always outside and like always coming over and knocking on my door and inviting himself in. He hangs around for hours and makes me do stupid **** with him as half the time he is really drunk. Anyhow, lately he’s been talking about like his whole life story making sure to not leave even the most intimate detail out.

Now, my girlfriend is rarely how because her job is very demanding. He is over here everyday now and he’s always talking about sex and just makes statements to me that leads to believe he’d like a uh, closer relationship with me. Well, this just really pisses me off cuz like I want to tell the guy to just piss off and stop getting all drunk and drooling over me BUT he’s my neighbor and my landlord’s son. I mean really, what the heck am I to do?!?
