If someone says “I’m gay”
people say “Why did you need to tell me that? I don’t care and don’t what to
know about what you do in bed.”

Being gay presents a special problem, because their behavior is repulsive to
heterosexuals. I don’t mean to offend gays, but it is the truth. And it goes
beyond mere intolerance. We are probably talking on the DNA level here or
something, but it is deeply ingrained.
Now I believe most people want to be tolerant and respectful of gays as people,
but asking heterosexuals to accept their lifestyle is too much. It is too
much of an afront to their sexuality. Wouldn’t the world be a more tolerant
place if we were all bisexual-- well it ain’t gonna happen.
And this goes beyond religion and beliefs, so I’d rather not see them dragged
into the discussion (until the end, eh Lar?).
