Gays of Create Blog So I decided to start a gay support system on Create Blog. I don't want to be preaching to all of you; I don't want to change your minds. But this is just a little topic that has been running through many minds of teenagers these days and I am always willing to give advice on this topic. For all of you who don't know who I am, I'm Kimo. I am a gay. I came out at the age of 13 to everyone at school and later my family. Coming out is a nervous expirince for everyone, but in the end, when you are able to live your live the way you want to, it's worth it. So come on Create Blog, let's exterminate homophobia!

Apparently gays are just as guilty of poor grammar/spelling.
Also, you are not "a gay." Gay is not a separate race/religion. It's a sexual orientation. I don't go around calling myself a straight. The way you worded it as "a gay" could lead one to believe that y'all are trying to distinguish yourselves as a completely separate group. By achieving that status, you could claim to be a minority, then demand benefits. Gay rights is a crock of shit. |

In a way, we are different from everyone else... we like the same sex.

I support an individual's rights, period.
Homophobia is a very foreign sentiment to me, but I grew up surrounded by theater types. I know that is a big time stereotype (homosexuals in theater) but I can tell you from first hand experience that there is a solid reason why it is a stereotype. ;) Anyway, good luck with this. Oh and you might want to have this moved to the Relationships forum, but that is just my opinion. |

I'm different again, I love the opposite sex.
Anyone want to join the Straights of CB Club? Really, you're just alienating yourself. |

Ok, out of curiosity, how is this any different than the Official Chinese Club, the Official Filipino Club or the Official Vietnamese Club as far as alienation goes? I know, I'm annoying and it's an annoying question but I'm asking it anyway.
The approach could have been different, I guess. *shrug* |

Sexual orientation seems to me to be a personal matter and not something for there be a 'club' about.

Can't say I'm entirely convinced, I might start a topic in Debate about this. It feels at times as though the homosexual community is doing whatever it can to be as flamboyant and as loud as possible in regards to shocking society. Clubs, gatherings, parades, nightclubs, societies, media attention, Elton John...
Now the counter-argument to that is the freedom of speech and the need to shock a close minded society into acceptance. |

Not to be another person to rain on your parade, but gays make the biggest deal out of their sexual orientation than straight people do; therefore, "alienating" yourselves. I don't view you as anything different or special, you just prefer men like I do.

That's the thing. I've seen gays do a lot of extravagant things to "prove" themselves to people, and how is it helping you? How is flaunting it going to get people to loosen up? That you have "issues" we straight people should accept? No. Go ahead and stand up to give a shout-out to gays, but it's that type of behavior that gets people to view you differently in the first place. Straight people don't make issues out of their sexual orientation, and I don't think gays should, either.

They feel as though they should get more because they are different from everybody else. If that is the case, then lets treat each race different, and women different, and so on and so forth. Everybody is equal. Doing this only brings unnecessary attention that I am sure you didn't want. |

If you said something was gay people would get worked up over nothing. I guess they thought it would offend gay people or something. ![]() I will no longer be cautious to what I type.

Well, tell me one thing, would people jump on gays if they weren't sporting rainbow-themed attire or parading around talking about how "gay and proud" they are? Exactly. "Coming out" would be no big deal if they also didn't dedicate threads/clubs/parties revolving around them, telling everyone how different they are. What do they expect? That all narrow-minded, conservative people will appreciate them for standing up for their sexual orientation? No, and this is the consequence of them being obnoxiously proud and upright about it. |

Not all of them wear rainbow-themed attire. Remember Karamo from the real world. He dressed in hip hop attire. For a gay person to get hit with the shank all it takes is knowing their sexuality, not necessarily them parading around and flaunting it. I mean honestly even if they did parade around why is this a big deal for someone like me? I just ignore it and pay it no mind and keep it moving. As long as its not putting me in harm's way I could care less. |

My point exactly, I'm not going to sit here sugar code it, I can be friends with a gay person to a certain exent. I treat them just like every other person except when it comes to hanging out. I just keep everything within a certain boundary. No offense. |

Sure, but I think a lot of them do flaunt it, which gets them in trouble more often than not as they're separating themselves from other people. It doesn't matter to me, either, what these people do or say or have sex with, they're no different than any other whiny group that supports some hippie social movement. |

I agree there probably are some who do flaunt it, but being annoying is not against the law, therefore why does this cause trouble? This shouldn't cause any trouble but by coming out they get unwanted attention from those who hate them. But I don't think any person deserves to be treated like this, because like reptilia said "Were all created equal", but unfortunately thats not how society works. Honestly I believe there will never be a such thing as a peaceful resolution for this, likewise there will never be a peaceful resoluton for racism. |

well sorry to get off all your convo's...
BUT. why CB's? i mean, if this was a community with a lot of gays (hate to burst your bubnle, but it's asians running CB's ![]() but considering there aren't really any gays here...what's the point? i'm not saying there's absolutely none, i'm just saying from my experience, why would you start something that doesn't fit with a community? you have to make something fit into a community, not a community fit into something. get it? |

Not judging whether or not this original post is a direct form of a pride, I agree that I don't understand gay pride.
What exactly are homosexuals showing pride of? What is the achievement? Congratulations you are...GAY! Okay...Thanks? I suppose that gay pride may occur to battle the possible shame of it, but I don't think it serves a great purpose. In my city there is a big gay parade and it's some sort of major deal. I go to the Community Festival in the park that is on the street where the parade takes place. It's a big hippie fest with breasts hanging out and alcohol and drugs are involved. It's a good time and the parade is carried out in a similar vibe. So yeah it's fun and all, but I don't think it does much good to show guys in leather thongs bumping and grinding on a float. That isn't what the entire parade is about, it's just the point that supports my reasoning of how this type of festivity is somewhat detrimental to the goals of the coordinators. It is beneficial to have people sharing info about homosexuality to people who are interested, but I think that most of it is just ridiculous. Why not have a parade (or in this case a club or whatever) that celebrates sexuality in general(hence Gay Straight Alliances, etc). Some of the floats in the parade support all sexualities, but it isn't the focus of the event. What is the difference between a gay parade/gay pride month and say... Black History Month(i do realize that its historic meaning vs the pride, but still)? I don't intend to demean the significance of Black History Month, but I'm sure some would argue against it with the same type of logic. I think that BHM is a decently deserved accolade and that maybe firm supporters of homosexuality feel that that are fighting aggression equivalent to what blacks faced in the past? |

Not judging whether or not this original post is a direct form of a pride, I agree that I don't understand gay pride. What exactly are homosexuals showing pride of? What is the achievement? Congratulations you are...GAY! Okay...Thanks? Bitch shut the f**k upp. You sound dumb as hell. Im sorry to speak in this form of matter,But once again as I stated before. People need to learn to mind there own. |

LMAO!
I'm a bitch for voicing my opinion? Awfully hostile for someone who is wanting to support the poster. If you read beyond the first paragraph you'd see that I wasn't bashing the op at all. I myself am bisexual and if I didn't want anyone to know that I wouldn't have just typed it and I won't press add reply. When you're posting in a forum it is kinda expected to have responses. So wtf do I need to mind my own business if it is a forum? Where did I ever get into his business? I could see being invasive if I asked him "How do you know if you're gay, have you sucked penis?" And wtf does it matter if Jessibabe only has 40 posts. A high post count doesn't make you any better, similar to how your sexual preference doesn't make a difference neither. ALSO if you're so sorry for speaking in that matter why didn't you just delete it and type something else. You had the option of altering what you said before you did, so don't act like you're some lady and you're so eloquent when you're clearly not. |

Not judging whether or not this original post is a direct form of a pride, I agree that I don't understand gay pride. What exactly are homosexuals showing pride of? What is the achievement? Congratulations you are...GAY! Okay...Thanks? I suppose that gay pride may occur to battle the possible shame of it, but I don't think it serves a great purpose. In my city there is a big gay parade and it's some sort of major deal. I go to the Community Festival in the park that is on the street where the parade takes place. It's a big hippie fest with breasts hanging out and alcohol and drugs are involved. It's a good time and the parade is carried out in a similar vibe. So yeah it's fun and all, but I don't think it does much good to show guys in leather thongs bumping and grinding on a float. That isn't what the entire parade is about, it's just the point that supports my reasoning of how this type of festivity is somewhat detrimental to the goals of the coordinators. It is beneficial to have people sharing info about homosexuality to people who are interested, but I think that most of it is just ridiculous. Why not have a parade (or in this case a club or whatever) that celebrates sexuality in general(hence Gay Straight Alliances, etc). Some of the floats in the parade support all sexualities, but it isn't the focus of the event. What is the difference between a gay parade/gay pride month and say... Black History Month(i do realize that its historic meaning vs the pride, but still)? I don't intend to demean the significance of Black History Month, but I'm sure some would argue against it with the same type of logic. I think that BHM is a decently deserved accolade and that maybe firm supporters of homosexuality feel that that are fighting aggression equivalent to what blacks faced in the past? So here's my thinking to your post. I know that A LOT of gay people flaunt their gayness. I know that most gay people show it off like it's sometihng that they have and no one else does. But for me, it's different. Yeah, okay, I'm gay. SURE! I would love to show that I'm proud, but NEVER once will I be "grinding" with another guy on a float at a parade. Infact, I am not all into parades, but I do believe in showing that I am proud of being gay. A lot of people in the society hate gay people because they only have an image of a guy acting like a girl. What most people don't realize is that there ARE manly gay people. And WE (meaning manly) are the one's who suffer for the actions of the flaunting gay people. You don't choose to be gay. Like somone said (I don't know how). It starts out as a phase and it either turns into JUST a phase or into something true and real. And I don't mean to pull the gay community apart, but there ARE many types of gays. Just like there are straight men who act girly and there's girls who are tomboys... we are them, just interested in the same sex. To answer some of your questions, us homosexuals are showing pride of our gayness... like I said, we are proud to be gay and we could give a rat's ass about what people have to say. Eventually the actions of gays in the community will make a point saying that we are no different than you. I know this sounds a little rediculous, but us gay people are fighting for rights; one being the right to marry freely in ALL states. One day... ONE DAY.... and I say that hopingly that I will be able to marry that one man that I fall in love with. |

I understand that there are different types of people who are gay. I don't doubt it for a second. I surely didn't mean to generalize homosexuals as people in parades, rather I was attempting to analyze the subject in a thought provoking manner.
Again, yes you are showing pride of your "gayness" but for what? It's not an award. One shouldn't be ashamed of his or her sexuality, but i don't think it should be thought of as a trophy. About giving a rat's ass, are you sure about that? If you didn't care you wouldn't spend time promoting it. I'm all for diversity among sexuality! However, I don't feel that one sexuality should be bragged about. It just seems a bit cocky when people are like "I'm gay and i don't care what you think!" It may be out of context, but give that statement some serious consideration, does being gay give you the right to not care about what someone thinks? No, being a human does. |

Totally agree, but gay people have to tolerate things more making it easier for them to ignore rude comments... we could care less of about people have to say. Now if people are debating, that's different. It's not a trophy, you're right, but people DO feel the need to express who the are. We are showing how we are proud of who we are. Straight people, come on and join! Our parades aren't just for gays... |

As for the parades not being for gays only, that's what I mean. Like I think sexuality should just be celebrated in general. It's good for it to be celebrated/talked about because then there isn't any undiscussed tension, helping put people at ease when it comes to the different sexual preferences. An aversion to difference is bolstered by fear.

Straight people, come on and join! Our parades aren't just for gays... This made me laugh. I don't think you'll have many joining you, actually. Straight people have a really hard time discussing their sexuality in-depth. Like, how many girls are comfortable talking about masturbation today? None. |

Well, tell me one thing, would people jump on gays if they weren't sporting rainbow-themed attire or parading around talking about how "gay and proud" they are? Exactly. "Coming out" would be no big deal if they also didn't dedicate threads/clubs/parties revolving around them, telling everyone how different they are. What do they expect? That all narrow-minded, conservative people will appreciate them for standing up for their sexual orientation? No, and this is the consequence of them being obnoxiously proud and upright about it. That's not true. I went to High School with a lot of gay guys and I was friends with most. They weren't obnoxiously proud but they didn't hide their sexuality, openly dating other men. A lot of them were teased and beat up, while one of them was hospitalized because he was beat so badly. In the past year 1 gay guy I know killed himself while another made an unsuccessful attempt. Even the most conservative gays are discriminated against if people know their sexual preference. |

^ Before you go on, you said earlier in the thread that the US Congress banned gay marriage. Just so you know, like, something about your own individual rights, that's not true at all. The US Congress has nothing to do with whether or not a gay couple can get married. That issue is entirely up the individual states, and some have already legalized it. :)

Legalize gay marriage. We're not getting one are we? When it comes to adopting that should be a different story for now.

No... you can go ANY state and get married... unless you are the same sex.... |

Im bi.
I will join this cult. QUOTE I guess its because the way the are treated by some in society. I mean when is the last time you heard of a dude getting jumped by a group of guys just for being straight as opposed to getting jumped for being gay? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- I remember back in the day when people would get offended on this site if you used the word gay out of context. If you said something was gay people would get worked up over nothing. I guess they thought it would offend gay people or something. _unsure.gif I will no longer be cautious to what I type. From this day forth I will keep it real and say bump this. I just can't kick it with you gay folk. OOO angry sexy kevin cutiepie. |

The states do have power over all marriages. All opposite-sex marriages are legal. They didn't used to be. Interracial marriages used to be against the law. People waited it out and it became OK. It's not going to happen overnight.

That's why GCB and other people are supporting the ideas, thoughts, and the thought of gayness. |

I know people are doing anything about, but who is doing it? Mostly gay people and for everyone who belives that love has no gender... it seriously doesn't. gay and straight people are wanting equal rights. do u just make this shit up off the top of ur head? for real. |

Do you expect special rights and privileges because you're a fag? no, I expect to right to get married and walk around time without having people laugh or say something about me being with another man. gay and straight people are wanting equal rights. do u just make this shit up off the top of ur head? for real. I'm not just making up shit. Love has no gender. And if gay AND straight people both want equal rights, then THEY can give up marriage. |

yeah right. u don't know anything about the issues u are fighting for. u didn't even know the state had authority in this matter. u better read up before u try to fight. Actually I do know, but the things you bring up aren't exactly high on my knownedge. So you want people to give up their freedom of speech? No, they can talk behind my back, but not infront of me i this case! |

Createblog actually makes me feel bad about myself and suddently my life resolves around Createblog. The comments being made on here hit home to me more than people think. I know A LOT of people on here are opinionated, but I have found myself thinking acouple... wtf? I actually can cryed about this stuff! |

um i dont think any of us have put you down for being gay. The majority of posts here are questioning the need for people to basically alienate themselves from the rest of society and then come back and tell people that it's their fault. And I've seen you post, making uneducated assumptions about your "rights" or lack there-of. Excuse us if we're going to call you out on it because you're not really making a great argument for those of us who ARE on your side.
The video I posted was made by a guy that actually did come out to his mom. And he made that video because that's pretty much how she took it. Eventually she accepted him for what he was and was okay with it. I see no reason why you should be offended by something like that. Just f**kin chill out. |
