Now, take my words of wisdom and put them through your exit.
Really, that is all you can be is rude? Typical response from an immature person. Want to see a fool, look in the mirror before calling someone else a fool. Learn how to debate or get schooled on it.
Of course there could and probably is some pressure from society causing these personal problems among homosexuals. But not in totality. Many are dealing with their own internal questions of "why did I turn out this way" and "why me?" because they in fact aren't comfortable in their own skin. Most people may not consider homosexuality as "normal," but that doesn't mean that most people want to invoke Matthew Shepherd-like actions on homosexuals either. I'd reconcile that many homosexuals have personal problems because of problems they perceive but do not actually exist in daily life to the degree that they think they do. Simply put, most people could care less if a person is gay.
The INTERNAL pressure is not sourced INTERNALLY. It is ALL about society and society's expectations and prejudices.
This is how ANYONE who has a difference that society passes judgment on .... from short people, to dudes packing less than 5" (y'all know who you are!), to girls with small breasts, to ugly people. "Not being comfortable in one's skin" is because people are self-conscious of how the OUTSIDE perceives themselves.
And it happens when people are young, especially gay youth.
Meanwhile, when gay folks tell you this, you rail against pride movements, teaching youth to respect differences, you get all bent out of shape. Because you know that gays "being comfortable in their own skin" is a PROBLEM for people like you, who prefer that everyone CONFORM.

Oh! Pretty strong language coming from a master baiter.
For me its a sin and will always be and a life style that is wrong.
That being said the Gay activist have come a long way to legalize at least under the eyes of law their life choice.
Most Christians do not hate or steer away because of Gay People. But at same token most people do not treat gay people differently.
I do abject to Gay people get a better status by a legal point of view. If anything, everyone should have equality under the law and be treated the same, even if they choose a life style I do not approve of personally.
Freedom of Speech and thought is not illegal yet??
No, it is their concience speaking, not the 'homophobic heterosexual' (lol).
Seriously? What a bunch of absolute nonsense. Ever wonder why in some eastern cultures, getting anything less than an A is a terrible SHAME and source of internal STRIFE for young people, but in America, there is no corresponding shame about getting a B?
Do you think it's CONSCIENCE at play, or EXTERNAL PRESSURE that has been internalized?
You know that in some cultures (past and present), men were/are ENCOURAGED to have sex with one another?
Present day: Etero culture
Past: Greeks, Spartans, etc.
In other cultures, being gay is an honor: Berdache tradition of some native americans.
Do you think the "internal conscience" was or is at play there? Do you think people growing up in that paradigm have the same "conscience" problems when society doesn't attach dangerous judgment and pressure, and instead EMBRACES difference?
It is commonly known fact that the more sexually repressed a person is, the more likely they came from a household that attached unrealistic expectations and moral baggage to issues of sexuality. Be it sex in general, or something like masturbation even!
No, the only way sex of any kind can be morally right and pleasing to God is if it is between a husband and wife and open to life.
Thankfully "pleasing to God" doesn't govern our rights and is not in our laws or Constitution.
