I understand what you mean but I believe everybody has freedom of choice and shouldn't be restricted sexually about who they wish to be with. It is just my thought on the subject. Anything that an individual wish to do with his/her life, is his problem and as long as there is no harm being done to any else as he perform his actions, then I see no problem with it.

It is hard to be labeling people. Let us just treat each other like human beings. We are all human beings, it is none of our business what some people choose to have or do, let us just be sensitive and more intelligent in our understanding of human differences. Sometimes we tend to treat people in a very narrow way and we end up hurting others' feelings. Who are we to judge others? We are just humans like everyone else. We all die in the end, so please, let us remind ourselves to be broad-minded and to treat people the way we want to be treated.

It is no different than being straight, even though it is more of a minority. You can't help who you love if you are gay or straight, I definitely know that from experience. You can't help who you have feelings for, and there is a lot of hatred and also a lot of ignorance against love out there which is horrible.

Well here in the US it's openly okay to be gay and for others to know you are gay. There are people that don't like and they discriminate against those because there is always going to be haters about something in the world. But not many people kill others for being gay any more in the US. It's so open here to the point where now in certain states you can get married.

In some country, it not acceptable. Others, it is not an issue. Life should be respected but sometimes, it doesn't happen.

We need to respect them. Whatever the preferences in life. That's their choice to be.

In my country being a gay is legal. And as far in my concern i think it is our own personal lives. We have all the rights to live our life the way we want, why someone else has to decide how you going to live or love? who are they? I strictly agree being a gay is normal, i got no problem with it.

I would rather have two gay friends because I would be safe with them. :) Though I do not know anybody in person, the gay ones that I have come across online seem pretty normal to me. I dont understand what secshual preferences have to do with making friends. I mean, unless I am interested in having secs with the person, his secshual preference has nothing to do with me. People who want to monitor others secshual life should be willing to have their own monitored as well.

I really have no problem with gay people. I have a lot of gay friends and they are awesome and talented. I don't see why one should be killed for being himself. I think your country needs to change some of it's ways as this world is changing really fast and everybody should be more open minded.

nothing wrong with being one. the problem in some countries, gay are very open about their preferences. I guess they are tolerable but not fully accepted. You can be discreet if u live in an exceptional country. ;-)

though being gay is already accepted in so many countries yet there are still some parts of the world that it is not. Those who cannot accept them said that God only created a man and a woma. Yes, it's true but I think we should understand and accept them, as long as they don't harm us.

I am also the one accept lesbian more than gay; however, I don't know why... In my country, gay is accepted, but the traditional society still need time to adjust. We don't really beat others because of this, but sometimes mental abuse and alienation are even harder to burden...
