So does homosexuality still bother you?
What do you think?
I think you (as reflected in your poll) believe that at one point, homosexuality bothered everyone. Otherwise, why use the word "still" in your question?
I won't assume (as you did) to speak for everyone on that issue, but for myself, homosexuality does not now nor has it ever bothered me.

That makes sense. Lol. Cause of his choice of words everybody here sees it the same way.
As a parent, I am still getting over the fact that my daughter is a homosexual. It's been quite rough.
That's understandable. Not only does she have to cope with the condemnation of many in society, you also have to bear some of the burden of being "different" because your daughter doesn't fit in with the children of your friends. I have compassion for your situation, however....

...it's hard to have compassion for this statement. "...teach our children right saying that homosexuality is not OK" --- who are you to teach that 10% of the population is "not OK" just because they were born with an innate attraction to people of their own sex?
It would clearly take a mental health issue for any 5 year old to even think of sex or sexual attraction. It is normal for boys to think "yucky girls" or girls to think "yucky boys". The degenerate mind may confuse an admiration for a child of the same sex because of some attribute, like being a fast runner, funny, smart or taller for a sexual attraction.
We've known since the times of Freud and Ellis that this is false; children are sexual beings from birth. That is a documented fact and is not in dispute by any reputable mental health professionals.
In fairness, here is the other side of the extremist coin, which is no better.
If you're personally disgusted or whatever-ed by gay sex that's your business, but to make a reach from that to trying to declare it as a "fact" is ridiculous. And I've no idea how your link is supposed to "back" that. Gay people on avg have HIV/AIDS more than straight ones. OK - and-?
PS and pardon a slight sidetrack, but there is already far too much of this trying to create acronyms which have no value or point, usually dreamed up in some attempt to make something sound more legit - and it rarely if ever works, so pls, spare us the "MSM" thing. You say MSM and I think of Gloria Estaphan's old band.
I don't know why the statistics on MSM by the CDC is so hard for you to understand. MSM is a part of homosexuality. And when MSM makes up nearly 2/3 of all men living with HIV, it is certainly a disturbing trend. One that parents of homosexual males should be concerned with and one that society SHOULD be concerned with.
People couldn't care less what FlipMC think sabout gays, blacks or whoever. You're free to be a hillbilly and continue to live your hillbilly life. Some people are jsut as backwards as you are. And you really are - from what one can read here
I'm actually more concerend about that, since the level of education is propably very low for those people. They are the ones who need some help, not gay men and women. Education is luckily the way we can go to get rid of this.
I was bothered by it when I was a young person, but only because that was the prevailing ideology where I grew up. As I got older, I'd say about mid-way through high school, I started to open my eyes and crawl out of the bigoted hell-hole my peers (not peers by choice) and step-father had created. Today, I am not bothered by it in the least and would be one sad camper without certain friends of mine who have sexual preferences which differ from my own. In fact, I wonder about my own preference(s) sometimes.
