THE WAR /WITHIN
- Rating: No Rating
We endured eight year's of (Falling Down) can we not at least give this President the satisfaction of restoring our integrity . He is going to make miscalculations and step on some toes but all and all he will give us our right to lift our heads high again . We will never be the most looked up to Nation again.
We have been asleep too long , and we still are. We still think we are not at the mercy of the terrorists , we still drive SUV's. WE still pay the CEO copious amounts of $$$ , we are still being devoured by the mistakes of the last 8 years. We are a nation of sheep....
Well my friend its' time to wake up and shed those expensive habits of yours and see the light . I'm a gay man still waiting to be liberated , but I cannot fight for my country or marry the one that I call my better half , you have made us the target of your hate ...waiting , waiting , waiting ....

Perhaps the only reason that they a making their private lives public, is because they are being denied the right to marry the one they love?
Maybe if the religious types would just let it go, it wouldn't be in their face anymore?

Ryan, this was your line. I accept gays w/ open arms. I see them no different than others. They are screwed up as much as anyone else in my opinion. You get good and bad people in any group. I dislike anyone who tries to push there agenda down my throat,(you might like it, haha) be it religion, politics or gay issues. I always get a kick out of seeing those flamboyant gays guys, i laugh my!@#$%off ever time and those parades are a gas. i have to thank you guys for crazy outfits. Do you dress like that all the time or just on special occasions?

Sometimes on Halloween we would dress up and go to the Masquerade Ball in S. F. Once I went as blue lion , and another time I went as a Prince , not a Princess mind you . Never in drag.

We all have our own difficulties. A person can make friends here and find a tremendous amount of compassion and support - or can go on the attack and try to pick fights with strangers to get the feeling of anger and vindication. Hope you have a better day tomorrow.

I've been here before my dear , look at my profile , I have 33 friends , and I have fought this war before. There are people on CCT that I like very much. But I do not !@#$%-foot around. If I cannot tell you who I am , just think how fun it is to be in the service , which I am not . Or for that matter having to defend myself against heteros who think if you are not married or have a women on each arm by the time you are 30 , are you Gay , they ask ? So who in the straight world don't ask. And mostly I have to fend off religious fanatics who throw their god in the way. As for attacking someone , I do not see it . Difficulties , no , not everyone has them . But thanks for your concern.

Ryan, I cannot imagine how it must feel to be gay in this country and know you are not fully accepted for who you are. I am sorry you cannot marry whoever you want or fight for your country without the need to hide a part of who you are. You live in a conservative, god fearing, homophobic country, but there are some here who are happy to accept you. We can be the ones who help change the culture. With our support, it doesn't have to be a battle, it can be a movement.

Dennis , thanks for the encouraging words. I mean it! There has to be dialog before we can have a movement . I keep hearing that I am on the attack. And I do not get it ! They do not want to hear that I'm gay , they say I am flaunting my sexuality , driving it down their throats . (No pun intended) I said I was gay which is a word that I detest , but for the lack of another it has to stay . The parades have done nothing to bring us along , see eds comment , I am not hurting I'm pissed-off . Again thanks !

I keep hearing homosexuals calling hetrosexuals homophobic.
I think some homosexuals are hetrophobic.
They try to force us to except their way of life without question. While rejecting our right to be who we are. We all have the right to our personal beliefs and practices. We do not have the right to bring offencive things out in public. Keep them out of the public arena.
I do not care at all what others do in private.
Do as you please. Just don't rub my face in your perversions.
