I have friends who are gay and I find them a person full of talents - they are artistic, creative and a lot more that a normal guy cant do. Are you aware that there's a lot of gay in the advertising world and fashion ?- that proves only how creative they are. Some people might say negative things about them but they are also human and they contribute well into this world. Sometimes I dont understand why men hates gay people, why? are they insecured??? What are your thoughts about gays???

There is nothing wrong with being gay, but there is a lot wrong with people who judge others. I'm glad to see that you seem intelligent and open-minded -- there are far too many people who choose to hate, rather than to accept that the world is filled with many different types of people, all of who are valuable and important.

I am a woman and I love all my friends who are gay. I respected them, I find them more easy to be with. I also noticed their contribution in our society. Why cant other people accept them for what they are? I hate it when I hear bad comments about them.

i find nothing wrong with someone being gay. i have many gay friends and love them all. people who have a hang-up about gay people are missing out on some of the most interesting and polite people. i have one friend that i have known since high school and he was my kids' music teacher. hes the nicest guy i know.

I agree with you. Not because they are gay they do not have the same right just like man and womans. Sometimes it happened that they are the most known or successful individuals. I think when it comes to achievement there goes the insecurities of men.

Have you tried counseling to help you deal with the rejection you are feeling from your family or others who try and put you down? No, it isn't easy being someone who doesn't fit the majorities carefully crafted picture of how the world 'should be'. You are not alone with dealing with pain caused by the fear and reactions of others. What they do not understand they react to with fear, which leads to striking out against people who have done no harm, but are still the target of the fear. Talk to a counselor, get some help to find ways to deal with your stress. Finding your way through that pain will serve you well the rest of your life.

The only problem that you have is that you don't love yourself. It's not an issue about being Gay--you have an issue with your self-esteem.

I love gay people..im a part of it and yeah, sometimes im annoyed of those people who don't appreciate gays existence :) i can't say they're insecured or anything but I think thats how its goes, they got irritated and they can't face the fact that gay people are far productive. The problem is they're just looking at the appearance and the gestures of gays but not to how it can do and how it can help the society. Gays are still humans and theyre very loving :) Im a lesbian and I don't take regret of having this kind of sexuality :) im just enjoying it and far being proud that im one :) as long I don't violate others and as long im sensitive to others feelings.

Gays said that they are woman trapped in mens body. If that is the case isnt God the one who did this to them? I am getting confuse.

The more research done the more it points to a birth variation - sorry Its Not A Choice. Let me remind you also that in the beginning of your church and the book on which you rely - that women were counted as POSSESSIONS and Not People. We have learned better since then - time for the next lesson - Gay is born, not picked out like choosing something from a catalog.

nope! actually this is identity crisis.. they confuse with their true identity. they should think and asking themself why they have men body but attract with men. my suggestion, they can find the true line and must take counseling course to get a better picture

have you had bad experience with gay people? It looks like you were harrased by them.

Of course you don't mind lesbians.. most guys are for gay people as long as they are females. You must be insecure with yourself. If you were not, gay people would not bother you. Besides, the person looking at you could not be gay. Seriously, grow up please.

I agree with you ireneortiz completely....there isnt anything wrong with it at all....Ppl who say there is something wrong with being g/l/b/t are clueless shallow uneducated narrowminded hateful negative and I could go on but I'll stop there...They are IMO the ones that are "wrong"...its not only pathetic but also sickening that there are still ppl in the world today that think like that and whats worse is they are teaching their children to be the same....Makes me positively ILL

I dont understand why gay should be condemned. Cant the world see that they are also human??? What can they do if they are like that- what do you want them to do? Live in lies forever? Pretend that they are men wherein they are not. Those who do this are bigger liars. I am a woman and I understand them, why men cant?

they don't actually don't want to be that way...if they could only change how they feel i think they will...it is not their choice...one thing may be is that they wanted to be true to themselves...often people on their type are real human than those of normal one....

Just for discussion, offense meant to anyone. Men are for women, women for men, Gays are for guys, sorry but I felt irritated when gays are flirting at me, or other boys. I dont condemned if they are born that way, but they have no match,it is out of the natural.

there's nothing wrong with being a gay. But we have to accept that people usually can easily judge people. So, as long as these gays are not doing something that will hurt others so go on living your life the way you want it to be.

I dont feel bad about gays. As a matter fact, i enjoy their company, no dull moment at all. Besides, they did not choose to be different, it just happend! And I know, if they will be given a chance, they want also to live a normal life. Lets face it, not all people accepted "them" but the thing is, eventhough they are like that, they are still entitled to our respect and loved.
• Philippines

Yes I agree to you that if they would also want to live a normal life. Some gay who had been mistreated always wish they had a normal life so as not to suffer from people who are narrowed minded when it comes to them.

I think there is nothing wrong being different because they are human beings too. I actually have a best friend who chooses to be different and I don't find anything wrong with him. He is a nice person, a responsible and good son to his parents and a supportive brother to his siblings. What I truly believe is that different or not, so as long as you do not hurt anyone, we have the right to live in this world. For other, people, it's just a matter of choice and belief. The important thing is, we are all living the same lives. We eat, we breath, we sleep, we cry, we laugh, we love and we hurt. I think respect is important too, if we want to be respected by others, we should learn to respect others too.

Yes, that is true respect is also something that is missing when dealing with gay people and as far as I am concerned they also need to be respected though it should also be earned.

Yes, I agree that most gays can express and share their talent if they knew that they are what they are, but, do they have to be immoral first before they can recognized what their talent is??We all know that in the eyes of God, being like that is a big sin...

I have a lot of gay, bi, and lesbian friends as well, and many of them are very smart and talented. I think that it is wrong for people to hate them so much. If you are a homosexual, then you are a homosexual. This is just who you are. Now, we live in a day and age where race, religion, and sexuality should not be an issue, but everyone is still making it an issue. If we were all to free our minds, maybe we can change the world.

It is not good from health point of view and moreover it is not acceptable to society.Just think if males can satiesfy each other why God has created female.

I love gays. I have a handful of gayfriends who contribute a lot to my well-being. their insights about life, love, and relationships help me through in many ways. i admire their zest in life and even when other people see them differently, they still manage to stand out. but, it sometimes saddens me to know that there are gays out there who, like any normal human being commit mistakes and sometimes at the expense of other people. it is not really the gender that matters, it is who and what that makes the person---gay or not.

i myself dont have a problem with guy people. i worked with quit a few and became friends with them. they are really nice people. i cant stand when i hear someone go "oh theres that nasty gay guy" it just makes my blood boil. whether people like it or not they are just as human as every one else. they eat, breath, sleep, wake up just like every one else does. i wished people would mind their own life's and leave gay people alone

There is nothing wrong with gay guys. They just have a different life style is all. I think that intolerance of gays or any thing that is different is because of a lack of knowledge although given the opportunity to learn more about the subject some people will just turn their hearing off. I also think that guys are very insecure about a life style such as that. Sometimes I think that they think if they go around that kind of life style it might rub off. Of course, some guys have just been raised in a era that says that is wrong, wrong, wrong and no matter how much you talk to them their thinking is never going to change.
