    Well, the amount of homophobia varies depending on where you're from. I've barely ever been looked down on for not being straight, and when I have, it's primarily been for religious reasons.
    Another thing entirely: Gay people who don't think bisexuality is a real think. Yes, this exists. And is is hillariously hypocritical.

    This is the reason why I think those terms are stupid. Not by what they intend to represent, but as a word.

    OOOOHHH, This is about sexual orientation?
    I was kinda unsure on the subject too... Fillys and Colts are still horses under the age of four, however, so perhaps a better term could be thought up for this... xD

    Anyway, ofcoarse I'm completely fine with gays and lesbians- I have no reason not to be.

    Agreed.

    No, you don't. You think it isn't right. Morals are subjective.

    One could argue that.... and one would be wrong. That argument leans in favor of Intelligent Design, which has been proved false time and time again.

    Anyway, animals have gay sex all the time. They have and will continue to do so. Humans are not unusual in this aspect of their behavior.

    You're right, but I was at work and couldn't really clarify my position.

    Sure. I was always taught that it was bad. Do I think that its a good thing? No. Do I really care? Of course not. I have bigger problems that caring what your orientation is. I'm more concerned how you treat me and whether you're a good person or not. Am I accepting of it? Sure, as long as you're not a duche or anything, then you're ok in my books.

    Beeing "gay" surely is wrong by some religions. As i've been an atheist most of my life, i think people beeing homosexuals and bisexuals are perfectly ok. Beeing straight might be the most popular sexual orientation to go by, but that wouldn't make it any wrong beeing anything else, would it?

    The era of being closed-minded is sorta... well, over. Now more than ever, people need to accept homosexuality as a part of other people's lives whether they like it or not. You have no right to judge a human being based on their sexual preference.

    All of these bible-toting (Closed-minded, mind you) Christians say 'Oh no, Homosexuality is a sin! Repent, bla bla bla Hell! It's unnatural!'

    Homosexuality isn't limited to humans. Animals of all sorts do homosexual activites as well. That's an act of nature, not of human nature.

    Why people are so worried about gays, I will never know. They just want to live their lives and be happy as much as the next straight man.

    It goes by what is under the term of "normal." Kinda like the reason bronies are hated on: their actions and likes are nowhere close to normal standards, therefore they are subjectable to rude and uncanny behavior.

    If the ratio of homosexuals to heterosexuals had a considerably lower standard of deviation, such problems of minority would simply not occur.

    If I'm honest, I thought you were originally referring the child molesters, which I'm not too fond of. However, I have absolutely no problems with gays or lesbians. Sexual orientation should change the way people are treated.

    As Royal Shield Says, what it should boil down to when you have opinions of people is not whether they are Homosexual or not, but what kid of person that they are. If you're a douche people aren't going to like you whether you are Homosexual or not, it SHOULD be like that, but unfortunately it isn't, people still hate on other people because they do things differently. And I don't thin that is going to change any time soon unfortunately.

    When are somebody in your face, though? Are all public displays of affection too much for you? Does this go for heterosexual people as well, or may they be "in your face about it"? I'm sorry if I'm being assumptious, but I've heard that phrase before from people who didn't sant too see any homosexual activity at all (like kisses on the cheek and such).

    I despise relationships in general.
    Gay or straight, I find them all nauseating.
