Well how about we set up seperate bathrooms for gay men and lesbian women?Why stop there? We could set up seperate drinking fountains. Seperate locker rooms. Seperate tables in resturaunts. We could make a whole new line of public transportation for gay people. We could set up gay only schools... gay only stores. The possibilities are endless. there are sooo many ways we could try to kee...

[i]One of the things that can't be disputed about homosexuality is that people come to realize it without help from anyone else. That makes sense though since, well, they look around and notice that they are attracted to people who are the same sex.[/i]You just answered your own question, if you would only take this line of thought another step further. Let me tell you a little story, I ...

Ted you are saying that you dont want to be in the same bathroom with gay people. If you are not suggesting segragated bathrooms, what exactly are you saying?I am gay, and I'm a man. I use the mens bathrrom. Would you preffer if I used the womens restroom instead? Or would you rather I just wait outside the restroom untill all the straight men who are afraid of me advanciong on them ...

Also, if I were you I would really search my feelings and ask why it is that you would even ask a question like this. It looks like text book homobobia by the very deffinition. You are afraid of being sexualy abused by gay people while you go to the bathroom. Has this ever been a problem for you?If it is please share your story. The only time I ever hear about men being harassed in a bathro...

*facepalm*Ted... again... if you showered with guys who you didnt know where gay at the time, but found out later they were gay... then you felt violated after the fact... Really man. Be honest with yourself. It's your problem. Did you notice them leering at you? Did they watch your every move? Was there any kind of inclination at the time that they were going to take advantage of you...

If someone is peeping on anyone… gay/straight/male/ then a crime has been committed and the law needs to be involved. What your doing is saying “Well this guy is gay so there is a possibility he MIGHT want to spy on me going to the bathroom, and that possibility makes me uncomfortable.” To which I have said and will say again – that’s YOUR insecurities at play. I’m sorry but jumping to th...

Well if a man was in the womans rest room he is either confussed or a pervert and needs to have charges pressed agaisnt him. If my sister was in the same bathroom as a lesbian, and she was afraid that lesbian was checking her out, yes, depending on the details, I probably would tell her to get over herself. Especially if said lesbian was just doing her business like any other woman who needs...

Im sorry you feel that way, but luckily it has no impact on the reality of the kind of person I am. I care about what matters. What some straight guy is afraid I might do to him if I catch him alone in the bathroom ranks very low on my priority list. If I need to use the restroom, I'll do so, regardless of who else is there atthe time, as long as there is a sign that says male on the door. I...

Bottom line Ted, in case you or anyone else just skimmed the response (I'm sure you didnt tho) is that educating kids about homosexuality has nothing to do with morality. It has nothing to do with STDs or pregancy... and it dosnt even need to be discussion in the same breath as sex education. It's about adressing the fears of gay youth, letting them know there is help, and there are answers....

I think you and I stand on two different camps when it comes to the purpose of education. Working in the admissions office of a college for the past 6 years I probably know better than most the harsh reality that too many students pass through High School overlooked, under educated, and unprepared for the world of college or careers. There are deffinatly improvments that remain to be made, and ...
