yes I also like Gulben.. (although some time ago i thought "Gulben" & "Gulsen" were the same person lol now i know they arent.. i love "kandiramazsin beni" & "uçacaksin"!!

wht about Burcu Günes? u like her?

I also love Tarkan. I have heard from many of my turkish friends that he is gay. What do you think? What do you know? What is the general Turkish view of homosexuality. I have a gay son - I am proud of him. He has a hard life even in England. What do my turkish friends think of this? I am happy to hear good arguments about this, but nothing insulting please

There are gays in Turkey- I've met one. I met him in Poland, he came to university for a scholarschip and he was a boyfriend of my gay-friend.
They have very hard life there, because most Turks don't like or even hate homosexuals. It's impossible to say in public that you are a gay.
My turkish friend told me taht he even had a girlfriend in Turkey so as not to be suspected of being homosexual. Isn't it horrible?
And also most of homosexual Turks marry with women because they have no choice- they have to make a family, because family and society insists on.

hehe pls dont tell me that being gay is normal.. really this is funny well remind the living aims that were learnt in biology... if sth is normal the other ways are abnormal so human beings are created for being couple couple means man-woman so the others are as a result of mentally illness if you ask me... ofcourse its non of my business but... isnt it awfull? yuckkk! ...

yes I think it IS normal and I know some gays they are my real friend and believe me they are normal people like me and you

So maybe if I like dark hair men and some other girl likes blondes I should think its awful and she isn't normal?
Oh please....

I don't know what you are tought on biology lessons but if your teacher tells you that gays are abnormal people, he must be one of those totally intolerant Turks are don' like (speaking gently).

One of my closest frds at the uni was gay and I was perfectly fine about that. I don't understand why people (usually other men) have a problem about it. I don't mind people having any kind of sexual orientation as long as they dont make my life difficult. Frankly speaking, i've had more problems with "straight" guys than with gay ones. Thus, do I mind homosexuals? No. I definitely don't!

Have you ever noticed how it's usually men and not women that object to gay people? If they are honest, it's not 'gay' they object to, it's homosexuals they object to.... lesbians are a completely different thing...I think this may be something to do with double standards again??

I've heard a theory that those men who are fierce opponents of gay men are so for the fear of being claimed gay themselves or are not totally sure of their own sexuality
Yes, it always surprises me that much as (some) men abhore male gays, they have nothing against lesbians. Perhaps, it has something to do with male fantasies of having sex with more than one women...

Tarkan is fantastic! I also like Mustafa Sandal, Gokhan Ozen, Sertab Erener, Yildiz Tilbe, Sezen Aksu, Ibrahim Tatlises and Ismail YK. There are so many more, but all Turkish music is great I think.
