Is being gay wrong?

Revenant,

I completely understand and see your point and it's sad. From an outsider's superficial point of view, it would seem like Norway tries to promote equality (laws, not supposed to judge each other [but this might be more archaic traditions, I forgot what the term for this is]), but as I hear more from Norwegians and read more things that come out of Norway (one reason I wanted to develop a reading knowledge of the language), I get more of an impression of how disparate things really are there. Just seems like progress on acceptance based on sexual orientation is decades behind gender, race, and religious equality movements everywhere. Thanks very much for your input!

every active bisexual i have known admited being molested . i asked bluntly. many homosexuals admited this also. i know this is not a rule but it says something. i have been told it was not true a few times, but i said to them they did not want to admit that is a factor in the issue. homosexuals are too defencive.. on the religious note. celibate life style an option.

i knew a bisexual that said the hetrosexual mating rituals are too hard to deal with but homosexuals are prone to agressive jealousy. i have known lesbians that have been beaten up by their lovers so much that they do not say in relaltionships very long because it is horrible. i knew two chicks that were beat so bad that they had their lovers put in prison and they had serious physical and brain injuries from the beatings.

krist,
Assuming you are being honest,
It doesn't say anything just because you the people you know have something in their own history. It has to be studied in the society as a whole.

i am sure that gays can be NTs. some gays are screwed in the head and some are not. one of my bosses was homosexual and he was the bomb, he was brokeback mountain as all hell. we got into a convo about broke back and i told him my whole opinion about it and he said the same thing. i felt sorry for the women and the men too because they have to play the straight game for their families and it is sh***y. but i dispise that faggoty s**t and all acting femine or butches.

There is a boy in my Gym class who is always on the girls' teams, and he talks in a high-pitched voice. That's the only person I suspect to be gay that I know of. A lot of people are very good at hiding their orientation.

at least people dont call me a hater or a homophobe because i say it is nasty..

Well, it's just an opinion. Everyone is entitled to one.

Honestly, I don't understand homophoebia, even though I'm straight, why should i give a plugged nickel who the guy standing next to me is sleeping with? How does it effect me?
I mean as long as he can respect my decision to be straight, and not be all sucking face with his bf in front of me or whatever, I don't see a problem. I've had plenty of gay friends.... Heck my brother is bisexual.

at least people dont call me a hater or a homophobe because i say it is nasty.

I used to get annoyed when people would call homosexuality gross, but then I realized that there's lots of sexual acts that other people partake in that I feel justified in finding equally gross. It would be hypocritical (and absurd) of me to try to tell other people what they should or should not find arousing unless I also submitted to the whims of my community as to what I could find arousing. It makes sense, but it's hard to demonstrate since you need to find something almost universally accepted, but also almost universally regarded as gross.

I ended up resolving it like this: It's fine for someone to think that homosexuality is gross, just like it's fine for me to find the idea of my parents having sex gross, but that doesn't mean that it's wrong and it doesn't mean it should be illegal or marginalized. I think that's a sentiment that can be pretty universally understood, since everyone has parents (that at the very least have had sex) and just about everyone finds the idea of them having sex gross, but at the same time no one would want to stop them from doing so. If someone had prevented their parents from having sex years back, they would never have been born.

The poll options are a bit limiting. If it was listed, I would choose, "It's wrong, but it's not my place to punish." Contrary to the way the similar option is phrased in the poll, there is such a thing as believing something's wrong without hating the person who's doing it. As the poll stands, you might as well randomly append ALL the options with hatred, such as, "I believe it's none of my business, and I think everyone who disagrees should be punished!" What sense would that make? Have seperate options for those who hate, versus those who simply have beliefs.
