Being gay has been around long before the early 1900's . Widely practiced in the Roman Empire.

We have evolved from the 1800-1900's should women be forced to stay home barefoot and pregnant as well?

So because I don't agree with bragging about being gay to the world, I'm a homophobe? That makes alot of sense there champ.

Actually I pretty much agree with everyone's sentiments about gay pride parades here. I think to a certain extent, the ways in which they choose to flaunt their orientation are unnecessary, and I can totally see why a lot of members of the gay community don't like the parades too, as they can be a misrepresentation of what being gay actually entails.

I wouldn't say she is necessarily a homophobe, just like Danny. They are both ignorant teens who think they understand the world. I used to share the same view when I was a kid. Eventually as you open your eyes, opinions grow and change.

There is a lot to learn about the world and our surroundings. Don't walk around with blinders on.

That's not the point I was trying to make. This has nothing to do with pedophilia except for the comparison I made in regards to sexual preference
Pedophilia was an EXAMPLE.
The point I am making is, I don't see what's right about parading about their sexuality. It's like beastality pride, pregnant sex pride, midget sex pride. Being gay has no proud heritage. Being gay doesn't make you different then anyone else, besides that you get off to different things.

I even said earlier, yah, some people can't help it ( the only reason I say that is because of chromosomes though ), but some people can't help having spinobiphida or 6 toes.

And I am in no way ignorant
I'm going by observation. Observation and my opinion on it is not ignorance.

The problem with your example is that your compared consensual sex between two people of the same gender with the rape/violation of a child.

**IainDaniel** · 06-19-2007, 01:01 PM

There gay pride is to fight back against the oppression they have faced.

Canada certainly is more liberal towards Homosexuality. But look at the states , where they have no rights. There is reasons why they celebrate, yes a little flamboyant at times, but it has no impact on me, and like a said earlier brings in a shit load of coin.

It portrays an incorrect picture of the majority of gays.

Not a good thing.

your Observation is very limited at 18, as you grow and get around different parts of the world, you will begin to realize.

By no means is it a slam against you, it is just reality.

Agreed. But I couldn't care less. I do alot of things the probably protray an incorrect picture of me. So be it.

The Gay Pride parade, in no way demonstrates their fight on opression. That may be their reasoning, but when I see gay parade I see no protest or fight on anything.

Like I said, it bothers me how there seems to be expectations when you're gay.

That's an offensive analogy. There is no comparison.

Correction no rights was the wrong choice of words. But they are refused some basic rights compared to married couples.

This thread once again proves that anything short of 100% acceptance of the homosexual lifestyle - all of it - is homophobia.

So now you're trying to say that being gay is synonymous with such disgusting sexual deviations as pedophilia or zoophilia? Being gay is not simply a different way people "get off". It's a naturally occurring phenomena that can be found in other species in nature, not just humans.

The examples you list as being comparable to homosexuality are grossly offensive. You really should think about what you're typing out before hitting Submit Reply you ignorant fuck.

I think it's horrible how we treat gay people in this country, and I've come across so many social and psychological reasons why we scapegoat them like this- none of which are justifiable. Rarely is someone so willing to outgroup gays or blacks or any group that is not completely oblivious to human behavior, cognition, and the history of their own people, much less the group they are opposed to.

I'm not meaning to offend anyone here, but personally I don't think it's something to go around and brag about. I have a very Darwinist way of looking at things, and as far as I'm concerned, being gay doesn't benefit a species in any way. I have nothing wrong with it really, My aunty is gay.
But you would never see her shouting it in the streets...because she finds it socially unacceptable. Hell, she tried to protect me from it. She told me her girlfriend was her roomate when I was little so I wouldn't be weirded out.

What do you think??

like i said I'm not trying to be an asshole..
