Cublas, wow I really applaud you for coming out, even if this is a forum I cannot imagine it to be an easy thing to do. I wish you all the best in life, and hope you have the energy to deal with things as they come up. I think you are doing a great job explaining your prospective, a lot of time it is harder for people on our side of the fence to really understand what it means to be gay. 

Georgina_satellite, I am sorry but the argument you made that homosexual behavior leads to various health conditions makes no sense and is not well supported. Heterosexuals are as likely to suffer from these sexual conditions if they choose to have erratic sexual life-style. Do homosexuals have higher incidences of these condition b/c they have erratic sexual behavior or does not being easily accepted in the society make them hide things, not have proper education of sexual safety and therefore that's what leads to it? What are your sources? There are certain population of heterosexuals that have higher incidences for these disease too. What does that mean?

dbst you are being really harsh, and it's not nice. From what I understand Cublas wants to have a really back and forth argument and your attitude does not help anyone. It does not help you, because as soon as we see your tone it's like "ahh ok this person has nothing valuable to add so he/she's just adding some distraction". 

For all the people who claim homosexuality is not normal, how do you know? Did you guys wake up one fine morning and tell yourself "Hmm it sure looks like a good day, from now on I am only going to be attracted to person of opposite sex" ? I know I certainly didn't, I always knew I liked someone from the opposite sex. Norm is anything that is more prevalent, sure we as heterosexuals have a higher population so we regard ourselves as the "norm". But what if homosexuality was really the norm? If I cannot explain to myself why I am attracted to opposite sex, how can I expect a homosexual person to answer why they are attracted to same sex. I mean isn't it the same with you guys who claim homosexuality is not the norm? Or did you really wake one day and say you MAKE THE DECISION to be heterosexual? 

Then I hear the argument that ahh you homosexuals cannot have children. So what? A lot of us heterosexual couples have problems conceiving, what does that mean? Are we worst or same as homosexuals? There are so many children out there in need of a good family, these couples will make it work. The biggest thing any family can have is love, and if two people love each other unconditionally and are happy at the end that's all that matters. One of our friends is a  gay couple who had a baby via surrogate. They are hands down one of the best parents I have seen, and their little boy is amazing. 

I do not completely understand what it means to be homosexual and I will never because I have always been attracted to opposite sex. But I do have respect for any two people who love each other and choose to lead a happy life. It does not matter if you are gay or straight, we all aspire to similar things in life. We all want love, acceptance, and a family. It does not matter if you are gay or straight, (bisexuals  I don't know, I completely don't understand that one). We all have a right to be happy. When I chose to be with my bf, I did not have to go to the gay community and say "hmm he sure looks like a fine boy, can I marry him"?. That sounds pretty ridiculous, does not it? But then why do we heterosexuals have a right to tell gay people who they can and cannot be with. Live your life, everyone deserves a genuine chance at love, and that's what works for you it's fine. 

Cublas, my heart goes out to you though. As soon as you are a little "different" from what the society accepts you are going to face many road blocks. I wish you the best and hoping your parents will understand the best they can.
