I think you missed your calling as a Writer Zymry.
You have a gift with words.
As to this topic, I think we have all beat it to death.
What else do you have for us to sink our teeth into Redfox?

Re: The Real Reason Straight Americans Can’t Accept Gay Americans
I think times are changing:
McDonald's CEO: Company will put full resources behind gay agenda McDonald's has signed on to a nationwide effort to promote 'gay' and 'lesbian' business ventures. Dear Brenda, According to McDonald’s CEO Jim Skinner, McDonald’s will aggressively promote the homosexual agenda. In remarks on McDonald's Web site concerning the company becoming a member of the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC), Skinner wrote: 'Being a socially responsible organization is a fundamental part of who we are. We have an obligation to use our size and resources to make a difference in the world … and we do.' The company gave an undisclosed amount of money to the NGLCC in return for being recognized as a major promoter of the homosexual agenda. In return, NGLCC placed Richard Ellis, vice president of communications of McDonald’s USA, on the NGLCC Board of Directors. Ellis was quoted as saying: 'I'm thrilled to join the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce team and ready to get to work. I share the NGLCC's passion for business growth and development within the LGBT community, and I look forward to playing a role in moving these important initiatives forward.' McDonald's refused to comment to World Net Daily on the placement of its executive on the board of the 'gay' advocacy organization but did send an e-mail confirming the corporation's support for the agenda of the homosexual business lobby. 'McDonald's is indeed a Corporate Partner and Organizational Ally of NGLCC. Our vice president of U.S. communications, Richard Ellis, was recently elected to its board of directors,' said Heidi M. Barker, senior director of media relations for McDonald’s. NGLCC describes itself as promoting the LGBT community first and always, including same sex marriage. NGLCC gives credit to sponsors such as McDonald's for its financial and other support that helps in its work. 'Through the commitment of our corporate partners, the NGLCC has been able to advance the ideas and causes of the LGBT business community,' the Chamber said. |

I've tried writing, I'm not bad at it when I can do it. I get distracted way too much, then the characters stop telling me their stories, or I stop listening.

Yes I do. I do not believe anyone would willingly choose the lifestyle.
It is the way that they are born.
Sadly, that is life.
Just as I was born with the defective gene that allows me to live with " depression " all the days of my life. Pills do help, but they will never cure it or change it completely.
I do not seek or demand special treatment because of it.
I to am limited by law and society as to what I can or can not do.
I have accepted that and learned to live within those means....somewhat...

This is the part that gets me every time. They're not looking for special treatment. They are looking to be accepted, just like everyone else.

Re: The Real Reason Straight Americans Can’t Accept Gay Americans
Not settling for a Civil Union but demanding to be Married is asking for Special Treatment..
wanting to change the Bible is asking for special treatment..
wanting it taught as normal in schools is asking for special treatment...
I can accept them for what they are ,,,different...they are not normal...never will be in the sense of the word.
Just because they exist does not make " it " normal.
Child Porn exists, child molestion exists.
Are we to accept that as normal because people are born to enjoy that?

See now back to the me that isn't asking for clarification or yearning for learning. I think we are (once again and on both sides) painting with broad strokes when we should be using a much smaller brush. A small but vocal minority are the ones demanding to be "Married" instead of accepting a civil union that gives them the same thing without stepping on the church.it is that same group of people or a similar one that wants the bible altered and the lifestyle taught in sex ed as an alternative. Depinding on the other alternative lifestyles and activites being taught in the area I am on the fence. Paladin wrote:

I don't give as much credit to "nature" over "nurture" as you seem to Some may be born that way others may not. And just because you weren't born that way doesn't really mean you had a choice in the experiences that molded you. ** walks up checks the edge of the abyss, nope we're still good no reason to dive in just yet** I didn't choose the events that have made me "tiffany twisted". I didn't choose to have too look in the mirror everyday and wonder which me will be staring back.

Re: The Real Reason Straight Americans Can’t Accept Gay Americans
Why are you afraid of gay people? Do you think they're simply bags of hormones walking down the street ready to pounce on anyone who is their same sex? I'm quite sure a gay person, as well as a straight person, can hold back until they see someone who is attractive to them. In fact, I have been told by one of my gay friends that gay men have "gaydars", which I guess means they can spot another gay man without having to ask. Now, since you are homophobic, you're obviously not gay, so you have nothing to fear. No gay man will pounce on you and start humping your leg.
You may rest assured.
Now, for your other concerns, the majority rarely has uprisings, gatherings and parades, because the majority doesn't have to. The majority doesn't have to fight for their rights like a minority does, because the majority already have their rights recognized. There's nothing to fight for. Hence, there are no straight parades. Majority uprisings inevitably come off as anti-minority because the majority already stands in a dominant position, and stepping up and attempting to reinforce that position is nothing but an anti-minority gesture, as in hitting them when they're down.
The whole point of a minority demonstration is to attempt to raise awareness and have the minority's rights recognized as equal to the majority. A majority uprising gives the impression that the majority is attempting to deny the minority's rights as equal to its own, thereby reinforcing the majority's standing by attacking the minority's.

The minority of gays already HAVE equal rights to the majority. They've won their rights to same-sex marriage, etc. Hence, according to you, there is no further need for gay pride parades. And yet, they're still happening. Face it: the vocal group of gays are determined to be "in your face" just because they can.
I agree with Willie. I think the straight people should have our own flags and parades too. Rest assured you haven't heard the last of that idea yet.
Caution: does not play well with stupid people.

So Santa Claus is a minority ? Carabana is about slavery ? Mardi Gras is about ummmm the chains of sexual repression being thrown off ? Parades and pride days can be just about celebrating a choice of lifestyle doesn't have to be about clawing for rights or opressing anyone. There is nothing stopping the poor beset upon WASP from getting out a flag and fixing a parade. What rights were the CNR people in Moncton parading for when we used to have railway days ? What rights do vetrans march for on Rememberance Day ?
