Nobody gives a shit who they sleep with or what they do in their bedroom. Its the in your face flamboyant....hello Im gay Im gay Im in your Face...who gives a shit. Like I flutter around Im hetro, Im hetro.... All most of us are saying is we dont care..pluuuueeeezzzzz. The last thing I do when I meet somone is say you know Im a hetro right? to see their reaction. I have a gay co-worker, him and all his little buddies are all the same as explained. Again...WHO CARES. If the world was filled with homosexuals there would be nobody!!!!!! get the point. I am tolerant but I am not changing to fit their needs......their choice they need adjust accordingly to scociety instead of trying to impose their will on every one else. And yes if my son was gay I would still love him and yes my views would still be the same.

TOLERANT?: I'm not sure how you can boast "tolerance" when you are calling people "freaks" "little buddies" "nasty selves" "dopes" "fucking freaks" and asking them to keep it in the "bedroom." Sounds more like hatred to me.
NOBODY GIVES A SHIT?: If nobody gave a shit this wouldn't be an issue here or across our country. You wouldn't be posting this sewage and our president wouldn't be threatening an amendment to our constitution. My gay friends wouldn't be beaten to near death on the street for holding hands or simply not looking feminine or masculine enough.
IF YOUR SON WERE GAY: would you not want him to have the same rights as everyone else?
Would you want him to live in fear? Hide who he is? How would you feel if he were beaten or attacked for holding hands in public or kissing, for the clothes he wore or less? What if he were murdered or beaten simply on the perception that he was gay? I just hope you will consider that as well as your definition of "tolerant".
I think you take for granted that you and every other straight person can hold hands, kiss, show affection in public each and every day of your lives, anywhere you like. You have lived your life and can walk around each and every day free of the fear that you might be beaten, lose your job, might be turned down for an apartment because someone thinks you are a "freak", might be murdered, might be mocked, might be arrested, might not be able to visit your dying partner in the hospital because you have no rights, might lose the house you and your partner bought together or have to pay an inheritance tax because you could not get married...
Perhaps if gay people hadn't been repressed for so long they wouldn't have gone to such an extreme. I say let them celebrate the small gains they have made and wish them equality.
REPRODUCTION: Honey, women don't need to have sex with any man to have a baby.
Do you really believe that there would be no one if the world were only filled with homosexuals?
Pretty flimsy argument there.
