Why is it that people label people they see as different as being either gay or ret*d?

In response to your question Sings 654. People these days either do not take, have,or have the time to get to "know"someone.

They then label them in a way that is comfortable to them.

Another thing is when people are confronted with someone who is different they are scared, and label accordingly.

I hope this is helpful.

Because they consider the mentally ret*d and homosexuals as inferior. They assume you regard these individuals as inferior as well, and will extort your agreement with implied threats of taunting and ridicule if you stand up for your beliefs that they are not inferior and that they are rude to think that way.

that is why we at WP do not use either one of these terms when referering to each other or anyone else.
