Arkkkkkk Give me a freaking break here.
Few children grow up to meet their parents expectations or that of their in-laws.
Even Rose Kennedy had a few meowww comments about Jacky and the length of her skirts.
Will the Gay community ever stop complaining about issues with their sex life and family. Darn they are not Special Folk, they are just like everyone else with the same problems.
Someone in a family may object to your life style when you are heterosexual but we have to accept it and them, they don't have to except you. People can get as mean and nasty toward you for any reason, jealousy or whatever.
If one is gay then you are afforded political correctness and your failings are not about you but your unchosen life style. You are covered by the law that says everyone must except you or be judged as person of HATE.
Actually being Gay has its perks, if one is OUT at work and gets fired---pull out the Gay Card. Turned down for a loan or new car, pull out the Gay Card.
You see Heterosexuals are what they are, sometimes. No excuse for human failure.
Gays are however born gay without their knowledge until they have a few short years living as a Heterosexual have a few marriages and produce, then do some realise they were Gay all the time. So they say.
Some know right off the bat they are Gay and if their family do not except them after 16 years living with them raising them, loving them the problem is theirs to muddle through.
So one raises a child that lives a double life, they are one thing to their family and live a different life outside the family.
Sooner or later the real you will come out and shatter all the preconceptions the family has had of you.
Now after living a lie to yourself and to friend and family, you the gigantic EGO, expect them to after years of knowing you to throw away all the memories and except a total stranger.
Why can't Gays have understanding and compassion for family that has been hit upside the head that you are not the person you led them to believe you were.
You except to be accepted by people that have known you for years and now bounce in and announce you are a stranger to them.
This seems to me to be a cruel way to treat family, expecting everyone in the family to just go with the flow and not question or become confused.
It is not the family that is mean spirited, it is those that demand their family to accept a child they do not know.
All your life you have been messing with the minds of friends and family, they see you as they know you. Then one day you decide to ROCK their WORLD.
I have respect for Gays that from the git go let family know who they are.
I have no respect for anyone with children who suddenly become Gay----Sounds not like anyone can turn gay but gets a sexual fetish.
BTW, if woman and men are born gay, why do so many gays have a history of Heterosexually and have reproduced.???
I apologise if I have offended anyone here, this is a place for differing openions and I will stand that Most if not all Gays is grounded in a sexual fetish, so be it, I get all week in the knees for the smell of leather to each their own.
