I’m not. That’s as much as I think about it.
Never cared much about it and it is not on the list of things I consider when talking to someone.

The gay marriage fight was stupid anyway, we all just have Civil unions in the eye of the law. All the religious stuff is outside of law therefore should not have mattered to states anyway. Let the religious folk fight about heaven, eart, and all the other nonsense people were spewing.

World didn’t come to an end yet so I guess gay marriage was cool with God anyway, who knew?

So - no photos of a partner on the desk? No marriage ceremony? No relationship update on social media? No holding hands in public?

My take is that it is something I don't feel a need or desire to have a take on to begin with.

It's so far past meaningless to me that I can't understand why anyone gives it even a millisecond of thought.

So WHY is it homosexual behavior has been observed in other mammals if the sole purpose of sex is reproduction?

I am proud to have been born female. My choice? No. I do believe that being gay is genetic. There are too many gays in my family and my husband's to disprove that. We produced a lesbian. As long as she is living a happy, productive life is all the matters to us. We say the same for our straight daughter.

Be proud of who are are and how you were born; be it Black, Brown, White, Yellow, Red, Straight, or Gay. It is who you are.

Not so long ago if you rooted for them you were judged, seen with disgust, and so on. Now if you don't root for them it is the other way around. Society ended up from disapproving them to embracing them. There are bunch of other so called "preferences/orientations" out there that are also beginning to have their voices heard and asking laws to also be changed to favor them. Many of those groups society will see them with disgust for now but just wait a little bit and sooner or later society will end up embracing them. If now it is totally acceptable to say you identify with whatever you want and society expects people to support it then any other "preference/orientation" should be fine in a couple of years even those who you might think its wrong.

Do what makes you happy. None of my business. If one has a problem with putting a pic of their SO on their desk it sounds like one of their own making and projecting their issues/feelings onto others. Too much time spent on worrying about what others think. Harassment is an EEO issue.

Don't care. LGBT represent 1% - 3% of the population. No significance to me at all.

I'm totally neutral on it, and I'm fine with it.

In case you are wondering why have gay pride parades, it's because they have had to hide it for so long (various reasons).

I've just accepted that it's part of nature. There's probably some evolutionary benefit for the species as a whole, much like there is with altruism.
