do you have any homosexual friends? did it effect your relationship any when they came out? What are your true feelings about homosexuality, no restrains and what if your child was homosexual? How would you react? What would be your feelings?

I do have homosexual friends... My best friend is gay and when she told me I just said okay, now let's talk about something more important, like what we are going to do tonight  That was to let her know that I was okay with the situation. And I kinda knew before she told me, or should I say I had a little suspicion....It didn't change my opinion of her cuz when its all said and done she still the same person, she's still my best friend. I go out with her and her girlfriend and we all chill, its no big deal. I wouldn't care if my child was gay. As long as they are happy, I'm happy. I'd rather for them to be in a healthy gay relationship than a fu*ked up straight relationship. Its to much other sh*t going on in the world to be stressing and having ill feeling towards gay people. I could care less who somebody else love and have in their bedroom, I got my own sh*t to deal with. |

My other friend (cuz I only have 3) told me that she and one of my former friends use to deal with each other. We were out drinking when she told me this and I just laughed. I laughed for like 30 minutes only because she threw me off. She just came out of nowhere and told me that she it happened when we were in college... I laughed cuz all of this happened under my nose and I didn't know  They dealt with each other for like over two years. And they were serious, I mean in a relationship, and I never knew. Okay I did suspect something once, I'm not going to go into detail of how or why I suspected something, but I brushed it off cuz I would never expected my former friend to get down like that, she actually made some negative comments about gay people. And she was doing the do herself.... But no doubt I'm still friends with her (the one who told me). She understands me like nobody else. It would take alot more than something like that to come between our friendship. |

i am cool with two "closeted" GBM's... and one openly GM... and affiliated with a few more GBM's..
...i still don't agree with homosexuality.. but, i guess "to each, it's own".. i don't hand any disrespect because of it. many may not agree with the things i do in life.. but best believe they will respect me.

Here's a funny story that taught me a BIG lesson I'll openly admit that I had gay men stereotyped. I was one of those women that said I could straight up tell if a guy was homsexual or not! So, my first year on the squad, one of the guys on the team asked if he could go out with me. I'm like SURE this big sexy man wants to take me out, I'm all for it! So he picks me up and we go out to a club (rave type atmosphere, you know anything goes!) so we are having a good time. Then he starts checking out guys with me. So I'm like this guy must really be secure in his manhood to be able to say the things he is saying. Finally one guy hears his comments and asks him to dance and the guy does, and they start getting all erotic on the dance floor. When the guy came back, I was like are you gay (kinda in shock). He was like yeah, what you didn't know. I fell out laughing then he explained that he wanted to go out with me (like hang out) because he thought we would make a good team as far as attracting guys. This was too funny, dude has become one of my closest friends and he was right we do make a good tag team match!  So I honestly feel that there is a lot more I need to learn about homosexuality, and that's about it. |

Girl that is too funny, E. Lynn harris opened my eyes to alot of situations. After reading one of his books i'm suspectiong everybody! That's like when I used to work at the bank me and my homeboy would team up so if there was someone cute for him in the line I'd slow down or speed up to make sure he got to work with them.
