Ok, my dear friend Nirman, two things for you. First thing first, my apologies that I misunderstood you as a gay. Secondly and more importantly, DONOT make formal statements depending upon what you find in Google. For instance, if you type NAZI in Google, and put the same amount of effort you might find documents praising the NAZI party, and actually glorifying their holocaust and ethnic cleansing. You might find articles posted by Nazi sympathizers where they vehemently support the theory about how Aryans are the super race and all the other races are inferior to them. So the next moment you dont come up here say- "Hey Nazis weren't bad people after all. Actually their theory about Superior race and their intent to eradicate all other races is very realistic very true and from now on I will start to believe in their cause- because that?s what I read off the internet in Google !!!" Come on man, we are making some serious discussions here; please dont bring Google to support your facts. Echoes my friend, I am not resenting to the fact that gays exist. But then I don?t even resent to the fact that wars exist, violence exists, killings exist, crimes exist, sin and all other man made wrongs exists. My point here is not about whether gays exist or not or whether or not they should be allowed to exist. My point here is simple, how come their numbers are in sheer rise in the recent years? Is it because of the publicity that they are getting and their cause hyped up by the media ? so that a young kid who for some other reasons one day does not feel attracted to opposite sex is let to believe that he/she is gay owing to the constant bombardment from the media and would eventually grow up to indulge themselves in homosexual activities? If that is true then the very fact that theory of homosexuality being natural is seriously questionable. Matrixrose, I don?t understand how the issue about homosexuality and gender discrimination relate here. But honestly I don?t believe that an individual being a male or female was their own choice in the first place, it was never theirs and will never be theirs, it was the nature that made the selection. We should all be proud of our genders whether be it female or male. Females and males are the two wheels of a chariot and without each others presence the so called chariot of life wouldn?t move forward. Rhythm, sweet heart, I very much detests the idea of sex change as much as you do. Neither sex change nor homosexuality should be legalized. I am a firm believer of natural cause; everything that happens should be parallel to nature?s will not against it. Nature tends to go for positive change, and both the above mentioned practices threaten its balance. You drew a very good point when you said that if I were forced to marry a same sex individual if I were in gay world. But my lady the point here is that gay world does not exist. It does not exist because its not natural and not self sustainable. Imagine if the human society was gay from the beginning then we would have not been born at all to have this conversation in the first place. The humans have been long extinct by now. Some one made a very good point when he/she made a point that they should be allowed to practice homosexuality as long as they are happy. But my people, thieves are happy to steal, killers are happy to kill, robbers happy to rob, frauds happy to cheat, just because they are happy to do what they are doing, should be allow them to do what they are doing. Definitely NO. I am not saying that all gay activities should be illegal, and catch them and put them in jail and try to suppress them. The thing is about educating them, telling them what is wrong about it, slowly changing the whole scenario. I am a peace loving man and am definitely against using force, but then what is wrong is wrong and we should all be prepared to face it and change it.
