It might be a ittle bit uncomfortable talking about this and i respect people opinions.. but as we all know, some where or some how, gays are arroud us. Some feel not comfortable with them and some accept them. Do we should accept them as a part of community or not? The truth is some part of the world accept them, allow them to be together officially and some parts are not. I cannot been accepted by religion or law actually but people ignore it. Can you accept them or not?Why?

I actually grew up around gay people so it has always been a non-issue for me. I have three uncles that are gay and I've never thought of them any differently than I have thought of anyone else that I know. In fact, before I even realized that one of my uncles was gay I was a teenager and the only reason that it even occurred to me was because he didn't take communion at church. I asked my mother about this and that i when she explained it to me. I honestly think that the world needs to be more tolerant of gay people because I believe that it is a genetic thing, not a choice that people make for themselves.

I'll be blunt here. To actually ask this question is almost parallel to accepting that you have doubts about the role of gay people in our community. A few decades ago this would be like asking should we allow women to vote. Our prejudice might hinder us from accepting changes around us. I just think its unfair to ask around and see if someone agrees with your prejudice before you out what you think of the subject. At least be honest about your opinion and don't pretend you have no issues about it.

welcome to the wonderful world of mylot naz. as long as they dont hurt and dont do anything against the law then i dont think that there is a reason why not to accept. they are humans too like us. i have an uncle who is our aunt already for he even went to an operation to change his body and changed his name as well. and so far we see him/her happy with her life. i can not say that i can not accept them for one in our relatives is like that, and i dont like them to criticize my uncle/aunt just because she is gay, there is more than what he is than just being gay. just my opinion.

I have a friend who is a gay and we are very comfortable with each other, this is to show that people no matter what they choose to be we co-exist in this earth, and I am even proud to show people that I am far away with the orthodox thinking of rejecting people because of their values and ethics in life.

Why not..they are human beings just like us..People often judge them as sinners. But who are we to judge them? we are sinners too in certain ways...They have their own right to be so, and it is their own responsibility to God.

Gay people, lesbians, hetero's and bi's-----they're accepted all the time, with absolutely no problem, until for some odd reason, people start opening up their mouths revealing who or what they sleep with. It's always some crazy reason people have to say, hey guess what? I'm sleeping with my dog or ya, i've slept with a black man or i'm spanish, but i'm in love with an Asian. No matter who or what a person chooses to sleep with is their buisness. If every one minded their own freak'in buisness, then this world would be a better place. There was a lady who started acting really crappy around my husband and i, because she found out we were bi, i in return said hey, stop worry about us and ask your husband who's bed did he just get out of when he came home at 3 in the morning? The look on her face was priceless!
