So when did you make the conscious decision that you liked people of the opposite sex?
And if you tried would you start liking people of the same sex?
Why would someone "chose" to be gay seeing how people like yourself think of them and act toward them?
And by the way, I am not gay.
I never had to make a conscious decision, it was made for me, in the womb. People have all kinds of psychological disorders they don't necessarily choose. My opinion is the absence of appropriate mother, father relationships, but then I'm just kind of old fashioned.

It was made for the gay and lesbians in the womb as well.
And some people cannot help the absence of a father or mother. My sister babysits a 3 year old girl. Her father died when she was 1. What do you think will happen to her?
No kidding. When half the country says homosexuality is immoral, yeah, insecurity tends to be a result.

Well, of course not. It's assumed that people are heterosexual unless they're told otherwise.
And even if that weren't the case, why should it be the heterosexuals in your town who set the standards on whether or not someone is open about his or her sexual orientation? Just because they're in the majority doesn't mean that their way is the only right way of doing things.

Good for them. I admire them for it. It's not easy to be part of a disfavored minority.

At this point, it seems silly to continue calling it a psychological disorder when it was removed from the list of psychological disorders about 40 years ago.

There is nothing prideful about a sexual preference. Also, the whole concept of parading one's homosexuality or heterosexuality in these parades is shameful.

Who said anything about San Francisco? Besides, most people there are heterosexual (contrary to what some people believe).
Sure didn't seem that way when I was there while in the Navy.
Doubt it has changed since.
Wasn't San Francisco where the AIDS epedemic first ran like widfire in the US ?
