If I were a homosexual how would I feel ?

I am not bashing, but merely seeking a better understanding of a situation. I am not gay but if I were would it be fair to say this cartoon is a possible reflection of my views? If you are gay is this part of you views? If not, then how far off is this cartoon from your views? What about this cartoon do you find realistic and what do you find unrealistic? In your opinion who better understands the other side's position more accurately, homosexuals or heterosexuals?

I'm not saying this picture is or isn't an accurate depiction. I'm just using it as a means of opening up discussions to better understand how someone might really feel about things, or how I might possibly feel if I were in their shoes.....thx

  • well you asked
    far be it from me to speak for all gay people. so I'll just speak for this one bisexual person.
    to me homosexuality isn't just one issue. gay marriage is a major issue but it's just one. it's about the million and one ways i am slighted every day real or imagined. yes some of them are imagined. most of them are not. what i am is a bisexual but damn it i 'm not just a bisexual. i'm also a diabetic, a CNA, a man, a farther, an ex husband, and a person who likes anchovies on his pizza. i cheat on my diet but not on my partner.
    i don't have AIDS. i am NOT a pedophile nor do i wish to be mentioned in the same breath as one. i love god but i don't love god because he has the power to throw me in hell. i love him because when i asked he helped me. whether or not i go to hell is a non issue because I've already been there. if i do go there it wont be because some vacant eyed evangelical decided that i have not had sex the right way. it will be because GOD decided i am not worthy of heaven. until that day i will worship the lord because i need to and i wish to.
    one more thing before i go. gay marriage is not the same as polygamy, bestiality or necrophilia. it is the committed loving union of two same sex ADULTS.

    BTW the cartoon sucks because it depicts heterosexuality as universally abusive and that's not the case. some of my best friends are straight.

    I like the cartoon. Of course not all heterosexual marriages are so terrible, but half end in divorce and some that don't remain abusive or firgid or spiteful or out of security. Yet a constant excuse for why gays can't marry is because it somehow corrupts how beautiful and pure marriage is--when it already isn't as an institution in itself. But no corrupted marriage--whether it be a pure straight couple in the middle of abuse, or a loving gay couple that's just ICKY--can corrupt your own marriage. There's no threat.

    well, there is some truth to it. I wouldn't say all heterosexuals are that way because that isn't true.

    Whenever some says gay marriage is a threat, I tell them that the majority of serial killers were heterosexual, as long with many other famous killers and bandit and bad people. hehe

  • Thought provoking
    And good to take into consideration, however, another attack on heterosexual males. What about husband beaters, or women that abuse their children, and why is she not portrayed as having an accountability for such things?

  • Hypocritical Heterosexuals
    Maybe the person that put this together is gay. Seems to me as though they are making a mockery of heterosexual relationships and rightly so in some ways. I dont agree that men or women should be in a sexual relationship with each other but then again I dont believe husbands (or wives Tech) should be kicking their wives around or abusing their children etc.. What a telling picture of times as they are.

    How long have we been on this earth? debatable i know but anyway.. point is we think we are so awesome, oooo look at our technology ooo look at all my money, my big house my fast car oh n I can even give my self skin cancer by burning my own flesh to look good wow we are so smart. Most importantly we have grown so much we have stable safe loving environments for our children to grow up in (hope you recognise the sarcasm)

    Some may say, there are homes that are safe and loving. I would agree there must be some but not many and most of the ones that APPEAR that way are unfortuantely the ones with the biggest secrets sometimes.


    Where is the fault? well we are reliant on ourselves to the point were we realise we cant actually acheive the things we want so we run, we hide, we buy furnture or we drink to make ourslves feel better. Truth is we are not smart enough to do it alone.

    Whats the answer (pnktrky your gonna like this one ) LOVE , love is the answer. Not just "I love you" or "I feel loved" but love in its entirity. Love means to give, to care for, to meet needs, to support without condition. Can we do this? nah can we crap! not without help..
