Well it was what I was trying to get across...too though hey if you are gay and are not hetrosexual...then the same can be said...It's hard being hetrosexual these days with all this gayness going on in the world.


God, I don't know if you were joking or not; but that was a really ignorant thing to say. If you honestly believe that is hard to be heterosexual these days, then you are blind. Heterosexual people still have it easy compared to a homosexual. Are you allowed to marry? Yes. Are you allowed to adopt a child without being judged? Yes. Are you discriminated because of who you love? No. Can you be fired from your job because of who you choose to sleep with? No. Are you put to DEATH because of who you love? No, of course not. You still have it easy.

...just kidding trying to get some laughs. But yes if we are to truly be equal then we wouldn't even be having this discussion.


read my earlier posts...also Zach...I live in the very Gay Area in San Diego...I have Gay associates who are looking to adopt...I think where you are from and where I am from are competely different...there is no discrimination here. Let's see you aren't out of high school yet and do not pay taxes and are not work in a work environment...haven't been married ...nor have had children...or owned a home or really developed yet into a person..you are still growing. So keep all that in mind.

Ok as for Gay discrimination...have you ever discriminated against a Gay person? Neither have I...As I have said earlier in this thread....Gays are here to stay, I believe in domestic partnerships, my only problem with so many people gay or other wise is that we all want to be special...when in reality we are all the same.

Gays are afforded all those rights in Canada, as well as the homosexual partners pension, if he/she has one, when they die. I think some states have some of these rights as well, Zach.

You might be disappointed, I've not met a single gay, or lesbian since I moved here. Well, there are a couple retired ladies here, but I think their relationship is more about companionship than anything else. One was a gay cop from Van, and the other was married, she hooked up with the retired cop after her husband died. I do a lot of handyman stuff for them, the baked goods from two retired women is phenomenal. I like working for women. It's always a guaranteed free lunch. Very Happy

They don't know much about this kind of stuff in Kentucky anyway. It's mostly horses and large bowel movements that they are known for down there.

Russia is similar to Kentucky in some ways. They don't like blacks and gay people in both places.
