Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender - July 2007

I'm gay male and have recently found out that 5 other members of my familys surname are gay but in different families but all from the original birth line. Doesn't this indicate that the 5 gay members have had the gay gene past down through the same gene pool? Interesting also is that they come from strong Catholic faith, so social acceptance as gay would not have been a choice in their families.
Any one out there have knowledge of family members being gay in their gene pool?

Already there are concerns that the records are too public and that a simple google search can retrieve the names and other information of couple who have registered. Is this the same or different than public information available when Male/Female couples marry, or is it the same situation. Would hiding this information for same sex couples be fair if the same information is available for straight couples? Or, is this one of the "rights" of marriage. Should the information be sealed or public?

Okay, I posted a question about 'dating' and about how I'm afraid to get back into the world after everything has happened and the such in this section. Anyways, first a little info about myself.
I've never found a female attractive, I've been homosexual my entire life. Now, onto the real question.
So, I'm out with a few of my buddies, we're simply hanging out, nothing else is really going on. It's hard to explain, but I'm talking with my friend and in a few minutes, I realize that I've just hooked myself up with a girl. So I go to meet her, and surprisingly, I'm completely in love with her. But the problem is that I've NEVER been attracted to them, I've NEVER really done much around them, undoubtedly I'm nervous, but the problem is, the current situation does not fit in with who I am, I have no idea what to do and I have no idea who I am any more, could someone provide some insight?

How can someone consider themself fully gay or fully lesbian if they had sex with someone of the opposite sex? If they could actually go through with it then they must have wanted it.

I was answering a question earlier about bigotry and how we as a Society seem to be progressing beyond it. Yet, I thought how much more violence there seemed to be.
Why is it that people feel the need to resort to violence to get their points across? Why hurt another person just because you don't believe in, what they do or in how they love?
We wouldn't want anyone to do that to someone *we* Loved, so how could any human being do that to another??
One person's bloody hatred ends up being some one else's battered child.
Why?

i have been crossdressing on and off for many years, just doing the basics of putting on anything i can when nobody is around, i have 'tricked' ex-gf to 'make me' dress up and they have dolled me up but it was over within 20 minutes. i want one night where i can just go out and have fun or meet people who can help me. does anyone have any suggestions...

fyi - strange as it may seem, i am definitely a straight male. its just that when i see an attractive female, 90% of the time i think wow, she's beautiful, the other 10% i think wow, i wish i could pull that look off : )

thanks! this is my first question!

In my own way I feel happy when I see some trying so hard to anger us. I feel that they are getting frustrated by society progression towards a more open minded accepting nature. With less and less bigotry they have to shout louder and louder to be heard. What is your opinion on this matter?

Use the rainbow flag as the background for the LGBT section? I think it is such a beautiful symbol for the Gay Community....Give a little shout-out if you support LGBT love! I Support!

My parents and peer group have said before that if a person plays with themself a lot and is obsessed with sex when they're young that they are more likely to become gay. They say this is true because most gay people want to play with themselves and have sex all the time.

I'm against it and believe union or marriage is between man and woman, not man and man or woman and woman. I just wanted your opinions.

Do you really think the whole stigma about homosexuality, or sexuality in general is forced on you by others and society?
Or do you perhaps think that maybe you are making a bigger deal out of it than others?
What I am asking is do you think it is real, or just perceived?
Do you think the issues may be self imposed?

This is an update on a question I posed several weeks ago when UPS said they would not extend health benefits to gays that joined under NJ civil union laws.

Here is the new story

http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2007-07-30-ups-civil-unions_N.htm?csp=34

I especially like this statement:

"We have received clear guidance that, at least in New Jersey, the state truly views civil union partners as married," said Allen Hill, UPS's senior vice president for human resources.
