I'm very suspicious that they wouldn't have said anything had it been a straight couple.

I have no trouble conceding that it's unlikely they would have done the same if it had been a straight couple. Now I don't care to watch a straight couple swapping spit either, but I admit that watching two dudes doing it is more disconcerting to me.
 
I heard of an incident awhile back where two guys got kicked out of a restaurant for making out. I have to admit, it would make me totally uncomfortable to see that.

So? It doesn't mean we can trample on peoples rights because their having them makes us "uncomfortable".
Im not saying "feel guilty for feeling that way". I'm saying, you might not like it, but at least realize and respect their right to do it.

Now if it was a place where children hung out and the punishment of being thrown out was being applied consistently to all sexual orientations then fine. Otherwise im horrified to hear this and i hope legal action is taken.
 
BAM! And there it is. Something you said that DOES NOT MAKE SENSE. How on Earth would a God fearing Church goer such as yourself know ANYTHING about the "gay life style". That's just stupid. I dont actually think you know what it is in particular that you find repulsive about it.

Let me ask you a few questions.

How do you know I was always a Christian?
How do you know every place I have lived in my life?
How do you know everyone I have encountered in my life?

If you cannot answer those questions, you have your answer.

Understandable, but should they get kicked out of a restaurant for doing so when in all likelihood the same wouldn't have been done to a straight couple? Is this not a form of discrimination?

Then don't look :shrug:
 
1. What is the "gay lifestyle"?
2. What about it demands the use of such a strong word like "repulsive"?

I don't get why people think we are that different from straight people.

I don't think you are different. I think a large portion of gay men's lifestyle is repulsive. Of course I think allot of men are repulsive in that regard.
 
Not unless it's two fat people ;)

Here's the thing. I've heard numerous stories about gays trying to become straight (i'm talking gay men in this particular example). They've tried to get into bed with a girl, but they just so turned off and in some cases disgusted by the prospect that they can't do it, similar to how a straight male would deal with having gay sex.

Now, again these are just stories I've heard or read, and it may or may not be representative of gays in general, but I just wonder, if straights get a little uncomfortable watching two guys making out, imagine what gay people have to go through. :shrug:

just a thought.

Yeah, I've never understood the "gay lifestyle" phrase. From what I know, most gay people, like most straight and bisexual people, don't have an entire lifestyle formed around their sexuality.
 
1. What is the "gay lifestyle"?

The constant changing of sex partners, public displays of sex and almost constant comments about sex in general. In other words they act like most men. The difference is females tend to tone it down in heterosexual men. Homosexual men are with men, need I say more?

2. What about it demands the use of such a strong word like "repulsive"?

Because it is repulsive to me. Not gay people mind you, that particular aspects of that sort of lifestyle etc.

Same. Aside from cornholing other guys, there's no concrete thing that can be described as "the gay lifestyle" and apart from their sex lives the majority of gays just go about their business like everyone else. There's gay subculture, for sure, but that's an entirely different discussion

I have known way to many that do. It just amazes me how people don't want to see it.

Personally I don't get repulsed by guys, I just really have no attractions whatsoever.

I think you are taking a subset of gay men, and applying that to all gay men.

See that is just it, I never said "all gay men."

Please explain to me why when someone says "many" or "a majority" people on this issue or race always, every time jump to "all?"

men are awesome! You should really appreciate! our erections have to defy gravity, you know how hard that is? (pun intended)
 
How would you describe the "lesbian lifestyle?"

Very, VERY different. Lesbians seem to want committed relationships at a much higher percentage. Of course unlike your experience with the men and sex with women (I agree) I have seen them switch back and forth in a more bi sexual way than men.

I'm saying that it's not the majority.
