    No, but you stated you have only met nice ones they are no different than straight people in having non nice people. On forums in any gay discussion where someone disagrees with gay marriage and you will find all the NON nice gays slither out of the woodwork. Ive met some very nice ones and ive met some I wouldnt want to be around just like straights

    Translation: If you disagree with us, than you are wrong. Embrace us or be ragged on for eternity.

    Then again, the ones that aren't brazenly flaming about are okay people with a difference I simply do not share.

    first, why is one of the choices for an all-inclusive resort in Jamaica?

    about hearing the term "gay" it depends on where it's heard. Among friends and acquaintances, the term is rarely used and some are homosexuals. It just doesn't matter. When we're playing cards, at a gathering or even out fishing, what difference does it make what any of us do when we get to the privacy of our homes?

    If I see the term "gay" in an article or hear it on the news, then I know it will be leftist intolerance toward anyone with an opposing opinion and I'm never disappointed

    Homosexualism - a disease that destroys the traditional family. If you want to be gay, then be him but there must be no propaganda. When there is a crowd of people with fake sexual organs of the body - it is the destruction of society.

    I immediately think of homosexuality. I mean, there isn't much to it. Homosexuals are just as human as heterosexuals.

    i think of gay people or nothing in particular...

    but i just wondered what i wud say if i was asked this question in which "gay" is replaced by "republican", and i have to say most here wudnt like it and it certainly wudnt be a fitting and fair description for alot of republicans

    we are all used to think in stereotypes, but i hope we all know that they dont apply more often than not; one shud meet anybody with an open mind; also u shudnt use streotypes as arguments in discussions like republicans ALWAYS do (lol, joking)

    And you were provided the answer in the post to which you replied:

    Too bad that message didn't apparently sink in.

    Unless I hear the word in context, I think of nothing in particular. Any word mentioned or written in and of itself is insignificant to me, unless I need to seek it's definition. If a word is my own name, well, it gets my attention.

    I usually think of lesbians but for the record, unlike what someone else said. If you think of any of the above than you are normal. All of those things are associated with being gay so its the truth lol.

    So you are saying that I am a child molester, a pedophile, a member of NAMBLA, a sexual predator, infected with HIV and have AIDS, practice anal sex, am promiscuous, a hedonist, am effeminate, have a lisp, am weak, am shallow, am selfish, am depressed, and am suicidal. And you think that's funny?

    I do not have any of the characteristics nor engage in any of the practices listed above. It is a lie to associate any of those things with me.

    These are characteristics and practices of many heterosexuals to - should they be the first things we think of when we hear the words 'hetero' or 'straight'? They're just as "true" of members of that demographic.

    Don't bother responding, because I'll be ignoring you.

    BULL!

    The operative words were “someone” and “either,” for B’s it would have to be marriage to “both” sexes to fulfil their destiny and remain B’s, otherwise the bigot is just demanding they be either Homo or Hetero:

    "Get rid of the restrictions on the L's and G's and I'm confident the B's and T's will be able to marry someone of either sex just fine".

    The corrected non-BIGOT sentence would be:

    "Get rid of the restrictions on the L's and G's and I'm confident the B's…will be able to marry two people of both sexes just fine."

    Well, it sure took you a long time to come up with this line of crap. So now polygamy must be accepted as well, or we're all "bigots". OK, so let's say two bisexual women want to get married. Do they have to marry the same man, or can they choose different men? If these men are bisexual, do they get to bring more men into the marriage, who in turn could bring more women? Your proposal is asinine.

    Since you bolded hypocrite, I assume that is the definition you are using. How, exactly, is it hypocritical to not include polygamy in the context of a bisexual marriage, when it ALSO wasn't included in heterosexual ones? Since you're so big on the dictionary, why don't you look up the meaning of "hypocrite".

    That is why I included the definition of the word "bigot."

    Just because you suck doesn't mean others are bigots. The thing you have a problem comprehending is that all ideas are not equal. Calling a piece of crap a piece of crap does not make one a bigot; it makes one honest. And I noticed that you had no response to the dismantling of your dumb idea, or your misuse of the word hypocrite, other than to repeat the accusation of bigot. Which of course was my original point. You think name calling instead of defending your ideas is a valid method of debate. It just makes you look like a fool who cannot defend those ideas.

    Unique individuals who share one common trait: being primarily attracted to persons of our same sex. Nothing more, nothing less.

    Seriously, it's not rocket science.

    Whenever I hear the word 'gay' I immediately think of ... just another minority entitled to all the benefits of affirmative action.

    You are right it is not rocket science to figure that gays are just like what you said people who are attracted of their own sex, that is weird and I know you will ask why, because it is.
