same-sex love

*bows down to Drex* I can't fathom the difficulty of that, and "respect" only begins to describe my feeling.

As for DN, well, AUGUSTINE, GO! *heaves out Master Ball* And, yes, I was warned for reviving the intriguing topic.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

The ones you know get offended at "homo?" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA

God, I'd hate to see how they react to the word "faggot."

*goes into orbit* HAHAHA.


Also, Drex.

Spoiler:

You're a million times better than this gay guy that I knew in High School (didn't know he was gay until about a year after) who's married to a woman who's helping him "more than she knows"

I was speaking idiomatically.

There's this word called vernacular. I think it might be useful. There's another one called colloquial. That one might help too. Basically, people communicate with words that mean things. Sometimes these words used to mean other things. By choosing to be silly and pedantic about the evolution of words, and more to the point, some words and not others, you come off sounding like an arrogant prick what thinks 'e's better 'n the common man, so to speak.

Aside from which, if you really wanted to be stupid, "homo" technically means man, so you know, you're not really saying much unless you're talking to lesbians.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Only a homo would say that, Radez.

FELIPE NO

Heh, we'll see how it all pans out in a few months before we start throwing respect around. I feel like I've got a good perspective and one of the only decent ways that I've heard of for reconciling conservative religion with homosexuality, but that doesn't mean it'll work out in the end. :P

Sounds like someone that's either a jerk, an idiot, or a putz. I'm not sure which, though. I won't even date a girl seriously unless she knows that I'm gay, because I have a lot of respect for women in general (and especially the type that I would consider dating) and wouldn't want to offend, slight, or hurt someone by withholding pertinent information until later on.

PS this kind of post doesn't really help conversation, unless you're simply striving for attention.

Absolutely nothing wrong with being gay/homosexual/lesbian/queer/whateveryoufeeltheneedtocallit. One of my best friends from elementary school is gay, along with a lot of my other friends. (Being in my school's drama club sort of makes homosexuality a common occurrence. ) I don't mind seeing homosexuals holding hands in such in public, I think it's great that they're able to show their affection the same way heterosexuals are. However, like most everyone else, if it gets to dry humping and pretty much sex with clothes on, I'm pretty much against that no matter who you are.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I have a friend who is gay but hes really cool about it. He doesn't mind if people say "gay" or any other words. He just makes jokes about it himself and then know one feels awkward talking about it anymore. I wish more gays acted this way.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Even as a bi, it does bother me when things seem to be "getting heavy" in public. I normally don't put much thought to it, and I won't say anything, but it does bother me.

I just don't want to see it (or hear it, for that matter).

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

As said above, i think that people have an issue with anybody showing excessive displays of affection in general, whether it be a man + woman, woman + woman, or man + man.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I couldn't give a toss for gay people, but I have to admit that I hate the feminine/female-wannabe and butch lesbian ones. But if I had a friend that came out, I would still be his friend and don't give a shit about his sexuality. My motto: You're my friend no matter your race, religion, S.O., etc as long as you respect me and treat me accordingly.

I've seen quite a few lesbian couples around Denver, more so than gay couples, which is unfortunate for me. However, I've never stopped myself from showing affection in public. I see no reason to. I didn't stop myself even when I lived in a town of 5,000 in Wyoming, so I'm certainly not going to in a town of 2 million.

Granted, I'm not out there groping my boyfriend or anything like that. Whatever affection I do show is usually a quick kiss or hand-holding. I try to smile at couples showing affection, though. It's nice to know that some people aren't afraid to show who they are regardless of their situation.

How ya doing, buddy?

I don't care holding hands or innocent kissing, anything beyond that, it's another story, the famous "get a room" comes in mind.

Gay or straight people should follow the same outdoors etiquette, as long as is discrete, it's okay.

FELIPE NO

Dude... You know better than to bring back threads that have been dead for almost a year. FUCKING NECROPHILIACS.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
