NOTE:
The questions I have are not meant to be hurtful, they truly come from my wanting to end MY ignorance on the issue. So please accept that truth and help a blind man to see.
I am not gay.
I am friends with gays & lesbians.
I don't understand why it is necessary for someone to anounce in a public forum that they are gay. As I see it, it's like going on TV and anouncing, "I like S&M!" Should I care that you like the same sex? If so why? Shouldn't I like you because you are a nice person with similar intrests? What does ones sexuality have to do with competing on say, American Idol?
Why, is it that if someone respectfully disagrees with homosexuality they are labeled Homophobes?
Is it wrong for a gay person to have a job where they can & will see undressed heterosexuals?
Is it the same or different from a heterosexual man being the coach of say a womens volleyball team and walking into the shower while the ladies are undressed to give them a peptalk or information on when the bus is leaving? Is there a difference? I know I would be tempted and arroused if I was the volleyball coach I used for my example.
Is getting creeped out by a gay come on any different than getting creeped out by an unatractive person (be it to heavy/ skinny et al).
I'd like to know. Remember I want honest non flaming/religious/derogatory posts. This is an honest to goodness desire to hear heart felt responses to my questions. I'd like to say thank you in advance for your participation.
THIS IS NOT A THREAD TO INSULT OR BASH ANYONE. IF YOU DO THAT IN THIS THREAD I WILL TURN YOU OVER TO THE SEREBII POLICE!!!
