| 7671 | *looks up* Wow, remind me to check my 'New Completed' more often. | If your son or daughter confessed to you that they were homosexual how would you react? |
| 7672 | Just a short reply to say Hello! It sounds like its been a long journey. I hope the trip continues to bring you more peace. ((HUG)) | If your son or daughter confessed to you that they were homosexual how would you react? |
| 7673 | I've been trying to avoid commenting as over the last few months I'm content to let things go. I am open-minded about whether homosexuals are born or raised that way. If they are born then fine. If they are raised that way then fine. What I do know is that I'm not going to change. I am happy to be viewed as ungodly. I have even responded to comments to a woman on the subway that 'No, I will not burn in hell because gay people are the devils own'. Okay it was in jest as I neither believe in god or the devil. I understand that you feel disgust although I suspect there is a deeper issue with your psyche. And you know my views on patriarchy already. With all this peadophile and druggie nonsense though you really have to stop. If I had desires for children then I hope to god I wouldn't act on them. But if I have desires for grown men and I meet someone (I liked) who had the same desires then I see nothing wrong with hooking up. I understand your problem with prissy camp men. This is back to your views on women. But seriously - to say you don't know any gay people is really funny. Even I have been shocked by the gay people I meet. When I first joined my company I wondered what my boss thought when I told him I was gay as he seemed like such a scruffy straight bloke. I was double shocked when I heard him talking about his partner. If you lived in London I would take you out for a drink to open your eyes. Well I hope this didn't come across as horrible as it wasn't meant to. I'm sure we'll find a common ground on other subjects and I hope that you can accept that we may (I dunno) like the same foods or TV programmes or choice in tie colours or whatever. | If your son or daughter confessed to you that they were homosexual how would you react? |
| 7674 | Yeah I understand your point on pedophiles and gay people. As for Christianity. Well its seems strange coming from me but maybe they have a higher opinion of God and Christ himself than you do. My concept of spiritual people is one of universal compassion. Y'know where the very presence of people are a joy! Where you look at them and want to burst with pride and love. Like you soon will feel when your beautiful child is born and you first hold them in your arms and they open their eyes and you connect. That's being 'The Father' that's mentioned in the bible. Or the Brother. Or the child. They make these terms up you know to sound funky. Gosh look at me preaching to the converted! Did you know - on the gay people are raised that way argument - that the theory is that the more uptight the Father is the more likely the kiddie will grow up gay. Sadly the uptight dads are more likely to be a homophobe. ( and that doesn't mean 'fear of..' it means 'disgust of..'). Reflect on this RayB. I know you wouldn't want it. I know I wouldn't want it for your kid. They deserve better. | If your son or daughter confessed to you that they were homosexual how would you react? |

| 7676 | *whispers to the back of your mind* Y'see. You don't like prissy men (gay or straight) and yet you don't mind butch women. Patricarchy! Repeat after me - 'The issue here is patriarchy. Homophobia (or homo-dislike!) is merely a product of patricarcy' | If your son or daughter confessed to you that they were homosexual how would you react? |
| 7677 | For the record ( and no I havn't made the mistake on forgetting to reply to someone - I'm just typing) I value the opinion that gay people are made that way rather than born. All I can say is that at the end of the day IT DOES NOT MATTER. Really it doesn't matter. Who gets hurt? Who knows love? What are the consequences? People say 'I don't mind gay people but I would be horrified if my children saw two men kissing in a park. What's the problem? (although I don't like to see anyone kissing). Kiddies get used to it. You live in the real world not f***ing disneyland! As I've said before - and will no doubt repeat - the problem people have is that they view gay men as 'being like a woman' and they view 'being like a woman' as a bad thing. Even gay people themselves can get all stuffy and say 'well I'm not like a woman -don't tell me I behave like a woman when I don't'. What's wrong with women? Religions which state their objection also have a lot to say about women and their place in society. It all boils down to one thing. Patriarchy.

| 7679 | That's a great story with your Mum and the towels. When I told my Mum I was 16 and in hospital after my third suicide attempt. She looked at me, shook her head and said - "Yeah, I knew that all along. I was just waiting for you to tell me." | If your son or daughter confessed to you that they were homosexual how would you react? |
