Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender - August 2007

From what i've seen in the world and on Yahoo and on television, there are several key differences.

Straight people are afraid of and/or hate GLBT people, while the GLBT people seem just fine with the straight people.

Straight people will dry hump in public and complain about GLBT people holding hands, while the GLBT people just want the dry humping in public to stop.

Straight people have developed all sorts of words and phrases to try to offend GLBT people, while the GLBT people don't really have anything equal to this.

So from what I see...GLBT people seem to turn the other cheek, respect personal space and control their public displays of affection and judge very little.

While the straight community judges, commits perverted acts in public far beyond most things we do, sling names, and insult.

And tell us God hates us..even though the bible says not to judge. And not to insult others. Love thy enemy and all that.

And they say we're confused. What do you think?

A church in TX canceled a memorial service for a gay man 24 hours before it was scheduled because they said they didn't know he was gay when they agreed to host it.

How do you feel about this? And what are you going to do about it? I am telling as many people as I can about it. I want to raise awareness and change attitudes even if that means only one person.

I read this story on yahoo and it made me angry in Arlington Texas a memorial service was due to take place for a naval veteran who had served his country in times of war only to have his church cancel the service because they learned that he's gay so what!! Just because he is gay doesn't mean that he doesn't have the right to a memorial service in his honor. He is one of thousands who served his country in the armed forces and is a patriotic hero who deserves a religious memorial service in his church he did his patriotic duty by his country let him have his memorial service.
I think the church that cancelled the service 24 hours before the service was due to begin should rethink and let the service go ahead.

Why are so many straight people so concerned about how gay people live their lives? That I don't get. And why do we always have to prove ourselves to people? Hundreds of gay people here have said that it's not a choice. that should be good enough. Of course if we had proof, would you honestly believe us? I bet you'd be stuck on what you think regardless of what any of us say.

In conclusion, what we do is none of your business, we don't have to prove anything to you....just leave us alone to live our lives and you do the same.

(this was actually a response to someone's ignorant question, but I figured a lot of other nosy busybody protesters should see this.)

I keep seeing people posting 'answers' to questions saying 'It's wrong to be gay' or 'God hates you unless you change'...but why would homophobics come into this section if they dislike gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender people? Do you not have anything better to do with your time so you have to go around expressing your hate for other people? If you're really angry enough that you have to go on here to take it out on others, you should really get some professional help.

Please read page after page of questions asked here. All I see is young people scared to death by the thought that they are Gay! What kind of world have we, as Gays, allowed to rise up around us? We have been in this revolt business for 38 years now, and we seem to have gone nowhere in a handbasket. I see questions about Gay Pride (sickening rebuttal to what these parades accomplish), fear of being Gay because of what the Religious Right has instilled in our country in the last 3 decades, and so much more...where is the equality...it isn't just about marriage, it is about life!. When and how do you plan on actually making changes in the world according to Gay! You don't even get out and Vote! What kind of world are you leaving behind when you care only enough to gripe about our plight, but not enough to do something about it. And yes, I am mad as hell...at YOU, GAYS! You have overwhelming power, yet you squander it by doing nothing except writing here at YA!

I'm sorry I just don't get it. I understand Marriage rights etc but I just see the milltary as just so far out the norm I can understand letting it have special rules Mostly for the saffety of gay servicemen. I feel this is just an issue people push because they think it will be some gaint leap towards them being accepted. But I just doubt that.

I thought it interesting, out of the three dozen gay lovers I've had, half were married. The main reason; there wives don't like giving oral sex. What do you think?

Last Halloween I went to a party dressed as a hooker. I went all out with the shaved legs, makeup, wig etc. I really looked good (if I say so myself) after allot of drinking I was being hit on by this rather good looking guy. One thing let to another and the (bottom) line is I had se% with him. I have been thinking about that night ever since. It turns me on when I do. It hasn`t happened since that night but I sort of wish it would. What do you think?

Ok, so you know how some people say
gay people are born gay???

Well when ever someone goes into prison straight,
then comes out gay...what's up with that??

So what do you think,
do people choose to be gay...or they are born gay??

I dont have anything against gay people or anything,
im just trying to understand...

So if you want you can leave your opinion
or say anything I should know...

a friend of a friend always said she knew my sexuality before i came out. i am bisexual but she classes me as gay and my male friend calls me a lesbian. on the other hand my mum treats me like i am straight.

the point i am getting to is why do a lot of people avoid the term 'bisexual' and refuse to call you it.

i am not a lesbian and not gay or half of either i am bisexual.

bisexuality is a sexuality in it's own right.
that's why this section has L G 'B' & T

has anyone ever experienced this or heard of this before???

It’s very hard to look beyond a question at face value; especially when a question challenges your existence and being. I am not trying to justify for those that pose questions that are intolerant of the LGBTQ community. Nor am I trying to justify those of us who are smug by putting everyone else’s opinion other than those of our own down. We all have a different belief system and have different faiths. Before we ask, or answer, let us take a closer look at our own words. Make sure that these are the very same words that we can proudly identify as our own. It’s easy to put down someone whose opinions differ than ours. It’s easier to call them out by derogatory names like bigot, idiot, sexist, pig, racist, homophobe, etc.
