Yes. They tend to be far more gentle, caring and unbiased then most straight people. Fundamentalists in particular could learn a lot on that respect. They tend to be more open about who they are (unless they live with or near the aforementioned...), more willing to show empathy, sympathy and love, more fun to be around, better conversationalists and more fastidious in both their use of words and personal appearance.
From a logical point of view, as a straight guy, I also love them to bits. Every gay bloke out there is not only one bit of competition removed, but he will promptly go off and remove another bit of competition. As a genaral rule they also have far more women around them, so a gay is really the straight guys best friend.
On a final note, I love my (wonderfully camp) brother very much, and I will thank you not to try and tell me what I think. Strangely enough, I am capable of making descisions and using rational thought without your somewhat egotistical and bigoted consent. He is happy, I am happy. You, evidently, are not. I suggest you learn to deal with it, because in this wonderful ol' life you will meet many people who disagree with your opinions and think you stupid, and there is nothing you can do to change it. I would also suggest you work on your grammar.........

A long time ago I thought that love was something that you reserved for some special set of people that you had judged worthy of it.
After a while I got to thinking about what Jesus had said about turning the other cheek and loving our neighbor I put the two together and realized that he had made no exceptions in these statements. It became obvious to me that he intended that we exclude no one from the love that we are supposed to be giving. I started thinking about my idea of love and suddenly realized that I had not been loving anyone at all. I had simply been judging everyone and every thing.
Judging someone worthy of love is not love, it is only judgment. I actually started to cry when I realized this. I saw just how much of my life I had wasted being judgmental, thinking of myself as a Christian, when I was actually doing just the opposite of what Jesus had asked us to do.
I thought about the verse judge not lest ye be judged, and I understood it for the first time.
I realized that I have a lot of catching up to do. So many opportunities were wasted. I now try to apply the love that I have for the world in a universal way like Jesus asks us to do.
If I start to feel afraid and think that I see someone that I should not love because of something I have thought or heard I try to catch my mistake as soon as possible. I tell myself that I have forgot the truth and have fallen for the same old trick that had cost me so many opportunities to be loving in the past. The horror of this realization is often all that is necessary to bring me back to my senses and make me drop the judgmental nonsense I was thinking.
I still have a lot to learn about love, but at least I’m making progress.
Love and blessings
Your brother

This is a difficult topic and if you want better understanding and desire to sound half intelligent, you might want to pose this question in another section.
I tolerate it, but can't support it actively. I think it's one of those things in life that a few people do because they can't help it. Medically speaking, it opens up risks for increased infections so I don't see how people could in light of this, but ultimately everyone is responsible for themselves. Your objections can't change or help other's behaviors. You can state your opinion, but that's it. If you go farther, you infringe on other's rights.
Do not gash bash either. It is crude behavior. It just reveals you aren't fit to live in a multicultural and diverse society we are in today.

Ignorance is the answer. why should any one have the right to judge someone on what sex they date or marry , each to there own is what i say. as long as your happy why should it bother someone else. unless of course its being shoved in someones face all the time . most people don't like that . if some one resents someone for there sexual preference than they should either make it known to that individual in a nice way or get over it.

I do like gay people.
Would i be gay? No.
But i dont think its wrong to be gay,and if someone has a problem with them, they can keep their promblem to themselves, just as gays can keep their homosexuality to themselves. If you are gay and you choose to shwo that you are gay thats fine with me, but if you blurt it out they should expect judgement from people diffrent from themselves., but i think people shouldnt judge on sexuality.

I AM TOLD BY THE BIBLE TO LOVE THE SINNER AND HATE THE SIN. SO LONG AS THEY DON'T FLAUNT THEIR HOMOSEXUALITY IN MY FACE I CAN TOLERATE THEM. AS FOR GAY MARRIAGE, AS SOMEONE HAS ALREADY SAID GOD CREATED ADAM AND EVE NOT ADAM AND STEVE. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A SAME SEX MARRIAGE. IT'S A FARCE. AN ABOMINATION.
