Funny how the gays should be quiet about their lives but everyone else can supply all the details they wish....and that's fine with you. Well....it's a prejudiced viewpoint on your part unless there is NO mention of marriage etc. and no spouses involved. GET IT NOW!.

Otherwise it sounds like SPECIAL RIGHTS for heterosexuals to me. Open your mind and see both sides of the fence.......you want your cake and to eat it too....but gays only can have the crumbs.

These older people are well aware that the young generation (my generation) is more liberal. (The older people are scared.) Younger people support gay rights and other liberal things a lot more than Baby Boomers and other older people. My generation is the change we need and the old people will no longer make decisions for us soon!

I'm so sick & tired of hearing about gays & lesbians I could puke.

Who cares what your sexual preference is? Keep it in the bedroom please!

I don't go parading around announcing that I'm a heterosexual white male.

Either you're qualified to do the job or you're not no matter what you identify yourself as.

You couldn't be more wrong. Matter of fact, the person you quoted is old enough to be your daddy (or grandpa). It is rarely about age.

your "sexual preference" is disclosed each time you speak about your g/f or wife.. so next time you use the word "my wife" in a conversation, then perhaps you should keep it to yourself

Keep your wife in the bedroom because that's the only thing that defines your relationship right?

Of course you don't. It's usually assumed that most people are heterosexual. It would be silly for you to "announce" to the majority that you're also a part of the majority.

And most gays don't announce their sexuality to the world. Surely, you must know this.

It's perversion first, person second.

Gay male, lesbian woman

For any other sexual orientation it is simply a man or women. Even with married couples we have no idea what their sexual preferance is. People get married for many reasons.


hussein obama is a man that seems intent on destroying (fundamentally change) America. This is just another step towards that goal.

I've never personally known a gay person who had a "coming out" party, but if someone did, I wouldn't denounce him (or her) for doing it.
