Barba, you got it wrong, you asked what is the big deal, i answered societies are disturbed by homosexuality mostly, it is unlogical to say people do not affected by this, every change in environment affects people. To say the truth im not an expert in this issue, i havent got homosexual friends like you, of course i have seen many of them, how they live, behave etc but dont know anyone personally. However i have witnessed many people & society complaining about homosexuality, they believe and fear that it has become a trend that would affect the society in moral way, thats why i used the simile of kids taking examples of their friends who have bad habits(maybe not a good one). Thats why maybe lemon also said that being gay is popular in UK, because teenagers who are not truly born gays somehow emulate the life of homosexuals and at least they want to try once which affects the society.

 

I just tried to bring out the views of many people, never said it is wrong or right. And i didnt say homosexuals have no morality. I have seen also people who think hmosexuality violates human rights by disrupting the integration of a society.  That society is made up of families. Anyways i personally do not promote or condemn it. Just this.

 

And lastly instead of making sarcastic comments, you should consider that not not everyone need to think like you, freedom of thought, it does not mean those people want to kill all homosexuals. Wink 

 

 

exactly!  those boys dont know their identity! they cant decide if they are gays or straight. it is shocking to see so many boys with heavy make-ups who behave like girls. they are bombarded by mass media. they are taught thats its ok to be this and that, you can tattoo all over your body, you can damage your earlobes, you can cut your scalps. today its popular to be a gay, mostly because people will notice you, secondly you do it out of rebellion to parents.

I mean how sad is this? you do whatever you want to do from the early years. you drink, you smoke, you take drugs (we have to thank Holland for pioneering), and no one will rebuke you. if anyone does it means they violate your freedom and individualism. haha what a misery!

every other family is broken. because we live in freedom, thus we carry zero responsibility. Our feelings are the most important thing in the world.

and this is all in the name of freedom, democracy and individualism!

What does wearing make up have to do with being gay? Most boys that I know who wear make up are very grumpy gothic/emo type kids. Damn, those kids depress me...

 

Let me tell you about the freedom of taking drugs. Turns out, making hasj legal does not increase the use of hasj. Shocking Holland is not pionering in taking drugs. Hasj is originally not from Holland, neither is coke, opium, etc.

 

I think it´s so easy to say that "families are broken" and all that kind of stuff. What proof do you have for this remark? My mother is from a much older generations. In her youth, normal people didn´t have tv or a phone. Only one person in the street had a tv, and only one person in her street had a phone. In those days, she was living in a lower class neighbourhood. On the corner of the street there were hostel-type buildings were Chinese sailors would stay. They would use opium all day and would be totally spaced out until it was time to set sail again. In the neighbourhood there were also hookers (which was normal for harbour areas). In the night, gangs would walk around. They would fight eachother with knives and big iron chains.

 

Because of the way the brain works, people get this "everything used to be better" view of the world. Well, guess what... there were always junkies, always gay people, always gay people who lied about being gay, there were always hookers (check Ephesus in Turkey for proof), there was always violence.

 

I don´t know about all of you, but I have a good family. I visit my grandparents every week (unless I´m in Turkey ) I have a good relationship with my brother, and speak to him almost every day, and I talk to my mom every day. I have a very close and supportive group of friends. I don´t drink, and I have never touched any kind of drugs in my life. I don´t sleep around with people. I grew up with gay people around me, but I´m not gay. If I was I would be open about it, since my family only wants me to be happy. And I´m DUTCH!

As for make-ups I have mentioned in my previous post. Tired of repeating.

 

I find your comment about chinese sailors or about your wonderful personality irrevelant to the topic, at least to every other broken family.

I´m just saying, that people tend to think that today is horrible and yesterday was great. Whatever time we live in. My point was that drugs have always been around, and homosexuality has always been around. Putting eyeliner on your face doesn´t make you a girl, and neither does it make you gay. Even in ancient Egypt the men wore make-up, and the majority of them were not gay.

 

To say that people are "being gay" because it is popular, or because they want to piss off their parents is a very very hurtful and disrespectful comment. A lot of kids struggle with their sexuality, and it´s not because they think it´s "cool". It´s because they love somebody, in a way that doesn´t fit into the standard norm. Telling their parents, IF they ever come out of the closet, is a painful process. Parents lose the dream they have for their children of husband and wife with a bunch of kids. Parents can push the child away after it comes out about his or her sexuality. You think people do this for fun? Ha ha, my parents think I´m Satan´s child and they treat me as if I were dead... Yes, very cool, very popular. Sounds like fun, maybe I should become gay too.

A big fight between a Saudi woman and a Masri man caught my eye. Both hit & insulted to eachother. Masri man is sure in big trouble, because hitting a woman big crime, and woman will decide what will be the punishment, after then 100 percent man will be deported...
