I am not scared of anyone who has different personal preferences than I do. I think that differences make the world a more fascinating and interesting place.
Wouldn't it be nice if everyone listened to the very intelligent and mature 13 year old who states they don't care if people are pink???
At least some of the younger people are getting to be smart and accepting of others. Have a good night.

if you mean scared of homosexuals i would say yes...i dont know if "scared" is the right word, anyway there are a lot of people for whom sex is a taboo topic so they really feel embarrased when talking about that and since the only difference between gay and straight is a sexual one, these people chose to be against us just because that way they dont have to face the sexual matter...anyway they are not only against homosexuality but against anything that doesnt follow what they consider "normal" and acceptable as regards sexual relations, in other words any sexual practice that implies a bit of desire and enjoyment

No, they aren't scared of "us" but it does give them something to spread their agenda is all. Some people feel the need to feel superior over others by creating a second class citizen of groups they no nothing about. It just shows their insecurity is all.

I'm not sure what you are asking, scared of what?
In my life so far, I have never come across a phobia that I couldn't conquer.
Scares/phobias are irrational fears and are caused by ignorance and lack of knowledge on that particular subject matter.

Of lesbians? Likely not.
As a straight male, I have a lesbian as my best friend. We go double dating, and have even gone so far as to "share" a girl or two.
No threat...only sometimes competition.
As a stereotypical male (not my own opinions following, mind you), I would find homosexual men more "threatening" (note the quotes). That is because the lesbian does not want to 'do' me, whereas my ~fear~ would be that the homosexual man would.
The fear is twofold. One is rape. The other, deeper down in the psyche, is that I would enjoy it.
(again, not my feelings...just the stereotype)
Have fun!

no, not scared. when we are offended, why can't you respect our personal objections? i mean if you see something that offends you because of something inside of you dislikes it to the point of disgust, does that make you afraid? no. the issue of sex is so personal. think of this...if sexual orientation is congenital and so much a part of a human, and therefore embraced subconsciously and brings a certain amount of joy and happiness
into the individual, then presented with the opposite would be extremely upsetting. sexual attraction is not conditioned so you can see the automatic reflex would be to shun the behaviors that the individuals face. it really has nothing to do with fear. as much as gay people ask to be embraced for what they do, you have to think of the people you are asking. if you present to us the idea that sexual orientation is part of your make-up, then accept that those who are attracted to the opposite sex have that also built into them. i don't like certain foods and will not approach them, i don't like certain smells and try to avoid them, and watching graphic violence is so offensive i can't watch. that is part of who i am, it has nothing to do with fear or ignorance or insensitivities, i just don't like them. remember that if you don't want to be offended, try not to offend those who are turned off by gay people. that is not saying anyone should be a hater of gay people.

I am heterosexual, but have always enjoyed the company of gay people. I find that with gay men there isn't that undercurrent of aggression you get with heterosexual males, which is very refreshing.

No. They are afraid of themselves and the questions we raise about themselves! We're basically mirror's of themselves.
THAT'S SCARY!
