Gay, Lesbian, bi relationships are okay!!
September 20, 2009
I don't understand why most people in the world don't like people of the same sex to be in a relationship. I'm bisexual myself and people come up to me and start critizing me because i am, but they dont understand that I'm special in my own way just like other ppl, no matter who they are.
Where I live the main population is gay, lesbian and bi people. In front of my school there are even people writing signs saying "God hates America and Fags are not welcomed here!" I am getting so sick of it! This is making us not want to come out and actually be us.
The government has no right to make laws saying that gays can not be married. God and government does not mix people! Get it straight! Some of yur friends might actually be gay, lesbian or bi, and would u not be there friend because of it? If you would, then you are messed up and not worthy of their friendship.

I completely agree. Just a few weeks ago, we had this thing called "Day Of Silence" where people who supported gay rights put tape over their mouths and were quiet all day. I participated because even though I'm straight and don't think it's "right", I believe that everyone should be treated like you want to be treated. This is supposedly a "free country", but when did being gay, lesbian or bi ever become a crime? Are we hurting anybody??? No, we're not. Thats my opinion.

I'm sraight but I totally agree about the gov't making laws to stop gay ppl to marry. everyone should be with the person the love and if that person just happens to be of the same sex well then oh well they should still be allow to marry! Gays arent different from everyone else they are still humans

I soo agree, Im straight but I agree. My mom gets mad when I say Everyone Deserves To Love Whoever They Want. But I dont! Plus gay people arent wrecking marriages, its all the people who are messing up theyre own marriegs!
I would never stop being your friend because you are the way you are. But I think gays are taking things out of proportion. Being gay is against the bible. It is a sin. It is against God, and I am religious. I respect you, and I understand that you have feelings and opinions too. But I think gays have a severe lack of confidence. If you are who you are, and you're bisexual, why do you care what I think? Does it change who you are if somebody doesn't like that you're gay? No. Get over the initial impact, be who you are but you don't have to cry to the world that you are underappreciated. Guess what? I'm straight, & I get made fun of anyway. You aren't the only opressed group, so stop being the victim, and live your life.
i am gay an i am in a relashionship with the love of my life and people cant get through there heads that just cas were both girls we can love each other and the thing is 3/4 of our skool is gay and we are verry open and we are there for each other and will stick up for each other and i think that if people that were stright look at it from our point of view they woukd think diffrent and if ur kool with people being gay that is a good thing we do need ur help cas it is not fun being gay we are told it is a choice an its not
I wouldn't stop being their frined, but they may stop being mine. I believe it's Biblically and morally wrong to be gay or Bi. And if I did have a friend who was gay, they would know how I feel and everytime they see me, I'd tell them the same thing: You're living in Sin! I admit, people take it to an extreme, but it's wrong all the same. People use the excuse "God created me this way". No, He didn't. You created yourself that way. God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.

I agree, people should never make fun of you just beacuse ur bi or lezbiean thats just not right. Do you ever relize when your walking down a street and a gay or lezbiean are kissing, some people walk by and they respond right to their faces "ew", thats not right and other really mean stuff and the couple get really upset beacuse they dont see anything wrong about where there doing? but other people walk by and there okay with it. i just get really upset with people who dissagree with bi, lezbiean or gay people..but its their opinions..we all have our opinions right?
As a bi teenager lucky enough to be surrounded by loving, supportive, liberal people, I completely, 100% agree with you. I would, however, urge you to take more care with your writing. Chatspeak has no place in a published magazine, and it greatly cheapens the value of what you are saying. Just something to keep in mind.

Hey, so im 100% straight but i agree with you. People are people, they can't treat homosexuals like animals. It's not right. My uncle is gay , my best friend is gay , i love them for them. I do have a boyfriend who is homophobic, which is his decision. I can't make him believe what i believe, but it makes me see that we can't have a perfect world. I have my own issues, that people hate me for. They dont accept me because i'm different than the stick thin, blonde hair, blue eyed beauties in the world. I'm not that, which is why im beautiful. Homosexuals are beautiful no matter what orientation they are. They are normal human beings and are so strong for being able to come out and try to be something everyone else isn't. I have all respect for you girly. I'm here for ya!!!

well it's hard to get past tradition. it's always been girl meets boy. not girl meets girls. Lesbians and Gays were put into mental hospitals or killed. Even today that still happens!

Well, I'm bi and I know I was just born that way. I had no control over it. So I don't see why I shouldn't be able to marry a woman I fall in love with. Adam and Eve were a couple out of the majority. They were straight, but that doesn't mean that you have to be straight to have a loving relationship. Thats like saying if adam and eve were white, black people couldn't have a loving relationship. There have been gay people all through history, it is just that we see it now b/c more people have the confidence to come out and society is more accepting. Sexuality shouldn't be looked at any different than eye color. You can't control it and it also doesn't make you who you are. Being queer is only a small part of who I am, along with my hazel eyes.
