Do you guys mind gays? They are people, they might like the same sex. But, who are we to judge? I think it's sad, when people hate gays, only because they like the same gender. I know it makes some people to feel uncomfortable, then don't hang out with them. If you don't like gays, then how would you feel if people hated just because you like the same sex? What's your opinion on this?And for people that are religous, Isn't everyone gods child? Black or white? Gay, bi, or straight? My only reason for asking this is because I have an older brother thats gay and people treat him like garbage.

I appericate the people who don't care if they are gay. And for people that don't like gays. WHY? they are people. They may not like the same people you do, but who cares. If you were gay, how would you feel if people hated you just because of there sexuailty?

I love gay guys! My best friend is gay, and most of my guy friends are. Gay guys make great friends for a girl. They love shopping, chick flicks, fashion, gossip......
I don't believe that it's "wrong" or "sinful", but I also don't believe that "God made them that way." Something in childhood or adolescence effected them emotionally to make them reject women sexually or be drawn to other males. It's deeply subconscious. Many say they always felt different. But it's developmental. By the time they get old enough to comprehend that they feel different, something has happened to make them feel that way. They don't feel different because they're pre-gay, they become gay because they felt different. From early on, what we experience as fetuses, infants, toddlers, children, teens, etc. helps determines what and who we become. There are at least 10 variable factors that psychologists list that can combine in different ways to cause same-sex attraction. Genetics and chemical factors of the pregnancy are a couple of the factors. But not all of them. Most of them are environmental, external factors. Whatever they are, in each individual person, by the time one gets to adulthood, sexual preference is not a choice. It just is-- because of what you are biologically AND what you've experienced and how those experiences have been encoded by your emotions and thought processes.
Biologically, I don't look at homosexuality as "normal". Biology is about life begetting life, so the species can continue. In biology, the purpose of life is more life. Opposite sex organisms make new life, not same-sex ones. In nature, male and female play two separate roles in the combined effort to recreate life. Homosexuality does nothing to create more life. If you choose to look at it Biblically, think about it this way: God said to Adam and Eve, "Be fruitful and multiply." Personally, I think the Garden of Eden story is no more than a fairy tale. But if you take it literally, then you have to admit that gay people are NOT being fruitful and multiplying, and therefore disobeying God's earliest command. And that's why religious people think it's wrong.
Humans, like other animals, have some primitive instincts to weed out the different among us. It's part of the survival of the species instinct. Socially, we should know better. We want to be a society of compassion and caring. In order to do that we must resist our primitive instincts to eliminate traits that are "different" or "lesser".
I hope your brother finds friends, family, coworkers, etc. in his life who will accept him and love him and try to understand him. It's not easy being gay. People don't "choose" to feel different, unaccepted, ostracized, rejected, and at worst, hated, bashed, even killed......We shouldn't punish people for becoming what they didn't have much control over.

Well, let me tell you a little story... I used to date this guy that worked at Future Shop and my friend, who is gay, asked me to ask my bf how much a flat screen for a computer would be. He didn't ask for a discount or anything, just wanted to know the price. Well, the response I got was, "I'm not finding out the price for that guy. He's gay." Like... ummm... what the hell is that?!?!
We were at his friends house, so I think he was trying to act all macho andI totally reamed the guy out. His friend didn't know that my friend was gay, so who was he to point that out for the world to know?! We broke up a few months later, but it still pisses me off to this day to think that there are people out there that are like that all the time.
You're right: who are we to judge? I'm sure that most of the world doesn't like it when others judge us for who we date and have sex with. And gay people are usually the most forgiving which makes them so awesome and easy to get along with. I think that the problem is that people don't take the time to get to know them, but rather judge them for liking something that they (the gay person) already has. It's probably because they see something in that person that is similar to them, and that's what a relationship is all about isn't it? Don't we all date people that we can relate to?
The world needs to be less critical and more open to things that others feel.

I think that God gives everybody struggles in their life and I don't think people should judge others by anything but who they truely are whether they are a different race, religion, gay, bi, or whatever! I also agree that God doesn't make mistakes- he already knows how you are going to turn out and what you are going to do. We are ALL God's children and he loves everyone of us!

i personally dont mind it. i dont really have anybody that i personally know that is gay. but my brother-in-law had an uncle that was gay i heard that he was a fantastic man very funny. also my cousin who married into my family also have a family member who is gay and i heard he is also a great man. like i said i dont have a problem w/ gays. i dont jugde on race, religion, or chose of life partner. and for the people who proudly state that they are gay i give them much credit for standing up againt what many people think is wrong.

Most guys don't mind gays. I hope you pay attention to all the people in your life that treat your brother with respect, and don't let the idiots get to you.

i grew up believing this one thing. that love is the greatest thing in the whole world, and that it can NEVER BE WRONG. I believe that hating people becuse of who they love is the most idiotic and closed minded of all prejudices, and that people who chose to practice this prejudice are the ones who have the problem.
I dont care what religin you believe in. love cant be wrong? tell me, isnt it the bible that tells us that "god is love" ? or that of all the things god created, that love is the greatest of them all? look it up...
if god is love, how can love be wrong....
i dont understand...
how people can be so cruel,
to something that isnt "normal"
and hate just because they dont understand.
i say
get over it
leave people to be free, to if nothing else in this world, love who they love without condemnation.
is it just me?
