Answer 1

Yes, there was actually a question and answer that literally brought me to tears yesterday. A black girl in the 7th grade had written about how some racist white guys rode by in a truck and called her a n*gger. She wanted to know how she should have reacted in that situation.

An older white woman who was 46 told a story of how when she was in her teens she befriended a black guy (they both had horses and had a lot of other things in common). A short time later she got jumped by some white girls. She told how a black girl that she didn't even know jumped in to defend her. Her dad, who owned a feed store, lost a lot of business because of the disapproval of the racists in the community but he didn't care. Her mom also defended the right for her daughter to be friends with whoever she wants. The part that truly touched me was when the lady said that she and the black girl are still best friends to this very day. I dropped tears after reading that and really wished I could give both the asker and the answerer a hug.

Answer 2

I wonder about the people that play games on here - take ID's, or that guy who posts nothing but a link that makes a million pop-ups open, or that guy who asks the log questions all the time. I was wondering what they are like - why they are so unhappy seeming. I feel pretty sorry for them. I figure they must not have any real human contact/closeness in their lives. Sort of wished I could try an be nice to them and see what happened but it didn't work.

Answer 3

Affected? Yeah believe it or not, I've had a couple of the true Christian people on here who really are trying to understand, but their understanding just doesn't go far enough for me.

I'm struggling within my own community of faith to bring along a few members who just can't quite see the big picture. Folks who are ok with gay church members, as long as they "dress normal" and don't "try anything." I would like for all my friends in Christ to welcome GLBT members fully and with open arms. And while I think we've got about 70% where I am, many of them don't want to do anything about it. And that other 30%, the ones who really wish we wouldn't talk about it concern me. So some of the Christians on here who are in that same place get to me. I want to listen to them more, so that I can understand them, and by reference understand and eventually reach out to my friends in my home community of faith that haven't made the journey to full inclusion of all of God's people.

Answer 4

You have to remember in what content people are asking you the questions. Sometimes its just someone who is trying to understand somthing they dont and they endup saying somthing that maybe offensive but did not mean to be. Some people are just jerks and say things to try to upset people. So if you know they are really just trying to upset you turn the tables on them and pick somthing you know would bother them and ask them. That usually shuts them up. My example is I really dislike the question of who is the man and who is the woman in the relationship. But I always ask them well tell me how you determine that. Is it the one who cooks and cleans is the woman because we both do. Is it the one who fixes things around the house because we both do. Good Luck

Answer 5

Yeah, that's happened to me before. I think that sometimes someone just touches you emotionally and at that moment, even tough you can't see them and will never meet them, you are deeply affected by them. I was moved by someone after reading their answer to a question that wasn't even mine. After that I thought a lot about what she must be like, look like etc... What she had said just hit really close to home for me. I don't think it's all that unusual.

Answer 6

I come across questions from young people who are trying to come out and it just breaks my heart. I wish I could just reach out, offer my home and say stay here until you are ready to deal with your family. I visit several gay sites with the hope that I can reach one person. When I don't hear back from them, it REALLY bothers me because I am left not knowing.

Answer 7

There are some people whose questions make me sad for them. But I still have to wonder if they are really or if they are trying to get attention. That upsets me sometimes too. And the people who say they are going to commit suicide drive me nuts. You can never tell if it's real or if they just want to see how many "please don't do it's" they get.

Answer 8

I must say i wish i could get Julia/Juanita and Slap her senseless for her God bothering views
