Before you flame me, read what I have to say. I am not anti-gay at all. I have many gay frineds, and have had for years. But here is what I have to say - I think gay people think that the discrimination, rejection they are experiencing is because they are gay - and it isn't that at all. The discrimination, alienation, rejection is just the same as heterosexual people who are widows, who are single, who have a special needs child, who have a large number of children. It also depends on location. It's like society says you need to be married, look a certain way and have the right number of perfectly healthy good loooking kids, or you don't fit. I live in Wisconsin - a very closed society. If a gay person were to come here and live they would feel as rejected as I feel, but they would think it was because they are gay. I am a widower, I lost my wife last year. We knew hundreds of people and then my wife died, and then everyone completely avoided me, complete isolation
