Ya know, some people are just 'flaming' and/or flamboyant even if they aren't gay. Flamboyance has nothing to do with sexual orientation. And sexual orientation is NOT a lifestyle.

I believe they are a danger to society and our children. They sure seem to make sure they are in positions to influance them.
You have no idea what you are talking about.

There is a very good chance that you are around gays more than you know.

As a gay man I have no idea what "sexual ideology" is...perhaps you can fill me in...

Honestly, I am tired of social conservatives, period. They think *they* are the only ones with the truth, and that they are "righteous(tm)," and then they go on and talk about freedom. what the heck?!

I hope you're not teaching your children your values. God forbid they would come out of the closet if they were born gay. I would hate to think of my child bringing home their new boyfriend and girlfriend with the same point of view. Although I seriously doubt my children would consider anyone who shared your point of view on the world. They are being raised to be accepting and loving of people regardless of their race, sexual orientation or religious beliefs.

It's really the anti-gay crowd that causes the problems. Example:

In California, during the few months when it was legal for same-sex couples to get married, over 18,000 same-sex couples got married, and almost nobody noticed. Everything was peaceful. And then came the anti-gay crowd with Prop. 8.

Suddenly, gays were demonized and told that they were "ruining" the country. The anti-gay crowd yelled and screamed about how their children were going to be "recruited into homosexuality" because of same-sex marriage. The measure passed by a small majority (52%), and understandably, a lot of Californians were angry - gay, straight, and in between.

The drama now continues in a federal court to strike down Prop. 8 as unconstitutional. The silver lining in all of this is that the anti-gay crowd's initiative may end up backfiring on them - big time. If Prop. 8 is struck down, it will open the door to making same-sex marriage legal throughout the entire country, not just in California.

Sorry, but I don't bow down to the likes of you....you remain silent...there are enough bigots on the planet already.
I love that you keep posting these mean hearted posts though...it only proves my point...over, and over and over......no integrity, no character.
And I saw the little troll comment as well.....aren't you a little sweetheart?
So filled with love....come on under my bridge...we don't discriminate here darlin'.

Sweetie, pedophiles, rapists, and murderers are primarily straight. By your logic, we should hate all straight people

The difference between gay relationships and the other scenarios are that the two gay men are consenting. The others obviously aren't

I happen to have a few Gay relatives, so my masculinity is not threatened by Gays.
Sure, you do. And sure you aren't

Using the same reason you gave, and the fact that there are sick deviants who made this NAMBLA group, why should anyone say that NAMBLA is wrong? It is a group of men who like boys, and it is consentual.
Let's see here...children are not mentally and emotionally developed. That good enough a reason to disregard the whole "boys give consent" argument?

From your logic, sick straight people who brutally murder people and ruin our country should be accounted for right? That gives me a good reason to hate all straights then?

No gay teachers teach my kids and never will. I love my children and spend the money to assure they are taught by normal people that are more interested in my children's education education and not their personal agendas.

It amazes me that with all the real threats to their children out there (violence, drugs, disease pick one there are plenty) some people are terrified at the thought of their children seeing examples of love and acceptance.
