Why is it that many straight people dont understand that gay people are born gay and cant change? Whats so hard to understand about it? Just like it comes natural to be straight and be attracted to the opposite sex, gay people are just attracted to the same sex. People are made differently. If you dont like peas youre not going to eat them right? Same as being gay. You cant just convince yourself to like peas. You can pretend for awhile in front of people but when it comes down to it you dont like what you dont like. Period.

Sad to say, but people are just very closed minded. People do not think for themselves. All they hear is gay people have so much sex with diffrent people, all gay people have aids, and all gay people just want attention. Everything they can think of that is negative they say. Yet for some reason peopl ehave forgotten about the bad straight people. What about the straight people who kill people, rape people, steal from peaople, or the straight people that have aids from screwing everything with a pulse. I myself is straight. My brother is gay. My brother is 41 yrs old. has had one job all of he's life that he still works for as a manager, will give he's last shirt off he's back for a person inneed. but i guess since he is gay people look pass all that. people will never change. we can sit here wishing but in reality we all know people will always be follweres insyead of leaders. it's there lost. not ours.

Speaking as a straight man I would first like to say that there is no excuse for anyone forcing their beliefs on someone for any reason. Their is no reason for there to be acts of violence committed against anyone because they are different or have different beliefs. That being said, I believe someone can be born with an affection toward the same sex but I wouldn't call it natural.
Natural would imply that that is what was intended at its creation. You couldn't really pose an argument that men were made to have sex and procreate with each other. If it was "natural" then men and women would be made with all the organs needed for reproduction. Not to dwell to long in religion because it seems someone has bible beat you sufficiently, to believe that this is "natural", you would have to be an athiest. Because any other reason would make God this cruel ruler who gets joy out of watching people suffer through loving someone and not being able to experience all the true joys of life.
It is natural for there to be a masculine and a feminine in every relationship. On TV and in person, you see men who are gay acting very feminine and females who are gay having manly haircuts, wearing men's clothes and acting manly. This proves that their is supposed to be a masculine and feminine. If in essence the only thing that seperates straight people from gay people is a sexual preference, then why must people take on unnatural personas? In the heterosexual community, if a man acts more feminine than his woman, he doesn't keep that woman for too long.
And to get just a little graphic, the anal cavity was not meant to be penetrated on a normal basis. And that is the orifice that is used to have sex by gay men. I have talked to gay women who have admitted to getting more satisfaction from penetration than from oral sex. So women will buy dildo's and vibrators to get that satisfaction. Which doesn't make sense because you can get the same stimulation from the opposite sex. But I'm not hatin. I'm just explainin.

I notice that men are much less tolerant than women when acceptance is even suggested. The male "gay" is the perfect woman's companion and I can't deny that gays are often artistic, good dancers, excellent beauticians, superb decorators, etc. (great dancers sometimes!). "guy" men do not appreciate gay men. And most of the "guy" (fathers, boyfriends, etc) men I have known, don't care for lesbian women either. Seems to be in their nature.
So, in saying all of that, as a woman, I do see the talents that gays do have. But, i do not appreciate the forcefulness of their wanting some rights that truly are reserved for the natural, procreative, marriage process that was instituted for one purpose only...creating children. And most gays that I have known are mixed up people...sorry, but they are. So, I know enough mixed up people without taking on another type of problem. That is the attitude of most of the people who have a problem with gays. Thanks. Hope this makes sense.

Well since I guess where monkeys too anything is possible. Your NOT born gay. Period. Why is it so hard to understand that were here to replenish the earth, and it's kindof hard to when the plug doesn't fit in the socket right. And what is so natural about the plug trying to fit in the plug, nothing! Is it so hard to understand that maybe just maybe there is a reason why you have a male and a female. Plus being gay is a learned thing. your only gay if you act upon it. you have to talk yourself into liking the same sex.

I usually don't answer to stupid replies but... "Your NOT born gay. Period. Why is it so hard to understand that were here to replenish the earth, and it's kind of hard to when the plug doesn't fit in the socket right. " The earth has done been replenished and then some... notwithstanding your use of spelling and grammar are ATROCIOUS. IF, and I say this very lightly, IF we are merely here to replenish the earth, then let's execute all people who are infertile and/or sterile. THEY can't fulfill the obligation, so they are useless right? Stupidity has many faces - mirror?

Because people are narrow minded and can't step outside of their own lives to know someone else's.
