I think gay people have the right to anon status, just like colleges in America can't ask about racial status.

Anybody that is THAT outward with their hatred for homosexuals must have been close to the situation at one point. Would your favorite movie, just by chance, be Brokeback Mountain?

I only ask because USUALLY those that are verbal about how they feel about something are usually talking to themselves.

I have no hatred. I have never seen Brokeback Mountain(no offence Heath, RIP). I think its all this media hype on the telly when I was growing up that put a little something in me. You know, the adverts about HIV. I can guarantee that my friend wouldn't want his 2 year old near a HIV sufferer.
Would you shake hands with a HIV sufferer?

Well, thousands of straight people have HIV too not just homosexuals. And I would be a little freaked out if he had full blown AIDS but if the HIV was under control and not an issue, then no problems.

Can you imagine a full blown HIV sufferer sneezing on a 2 year old girl? The parents would go mental.

It is called full blown AIDS not full blown HIV.

Yes parents would go mental. I would not allow anybody to sneeze on my baby though.

You may not like our lifestyle but we gotta make a living too.

Plus actually, I'm not gay enough, - I think a man shouldn't have sex with a man. So I never go that way. I just like pretending I'm a beautiful woman!
You might be preoccupied pretending to be a beautiful woman on the job and not realize you're doing it. You may be spending too much time admiring yourself in the mirror and not getting your work done.

Also if you don't admit you're a felon you the job application, the company can fire you when they get the results from a background check.

This is even funnier than a movie. Boy that sounds like quite the slippery slope. Hey, Gawd forbid word gets out, then all the gays will flock to your company for work.

lol where do you work the KKK? lol, maybe some place that is "machismo" lol. Besides not every gay person exhibits characteristics that are commonly associated with being gay so you can't really tell if they are.

Of course seeing as how ignorant you are by reading some of your post in this forum I would just assume your stupid.
