“I have to tell you that over the course of several years as I have talked to friends and family and neighbors when I think about members of my own staff who are in incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together, when I think about those soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf and yet feel constrained, even now that Don’t Ask Don’t Tell is gone, because they are not able to commit themselves in a marriage, at a certain point I’ve just concluded that for me personally it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same sex couples should be able to get married."

It's about damn time.

Well. If there was any doubt about Obama getting reelected. Thats out the window.

 

[Ush]

Thank god, murder won't be made legal anytime soon.

 

[Batman]

GET SOME! LOL: I voted for Obama.

 

[Ush]

Alright, let me be perfectly honest.

I'm not comfortable with gays and lesbians.

But I don't see why they should get ridiculed.

It's because it's different. When it's not familiar with somebody, they look down on it because they know nothing. Just like the native americans and the brits. I'm all for everything.

Finally.

Why are you not comfortable with a physical sentient being loving another physical sentient being? This goes beyond all the various definitions of gender and sexuality.

Gay activities are not the problem, it's societies attitude towards their activites where the problem lies.

Why is this exactly? Religious reasons? Just uncomfortable? Why is this?

 

[Ush]

Just uncomfortable. I get the same feeling while around people who I know just had sex, so that might be it.

Oh, you're one of THOSE people who instantly think about 'sexually permiscuous activities' involving homosexuals. So when you encounter a guy who tells you he's gay, you instantly think about his sex life and define him by his desires?

Ugh.

 

[Batman]

lol constantine, you can't just ask people that. you have to be tactical.

USH: you say you don't like gays, yet you have a ****ing pony on your avi.

 

[Ush]

NOT LIKE THAT! I meant when their are two gay people who are in a relationship, that I know is sexual.

 

[Batman]

it's none of your business, we all know that males (do private things when alone) but we overlook it because it's part of life.

 

[Ush]

I get the same feeling around straights that do it.

 

[Kaeb]

I get the same feeling around straights that do it.

So all human being make you uncomfortable? You've changed your opinion now, you said gays and lesbians make you uncomfortable. When we asked why, you immediately jumped towards sexual relations and now you've changed your words.

You're being rather confusing.

Here's my 2c:

In this case, it's good economics.

If homosexual couples want to be as miserable as heterosexual couples and call their lawyers for a divorce, that's more money going into the Economy.

Alright. Let me clear this. I HAVE NOTHING ON GAYS AND LESBIANS! I just get uncomfortable if there are two I know are in a sexual relationship. I get the same feeling around straights under the same circumstances. But I could easily talk to a gay or lesbian person. I just feel a bit strange when there is a couple in a sexual relationship. I feel like I'm invading their privacy. In my first post, I meant that I just get it stronger around gay and lesbian couples, due to the fact that I grew up around people who steered clear of Gays, so the only real thing I ever heard about them was crap from the media.

I didn't mean any offense.
