a lot of people think that because you're gay, you automatically like ALL men like you get a boner from every man that walks by or think that if you're gay, you're a child molester who likes little boys?

Okay, if you're a straight man, do you get a boner from every woman who walks by? Can you be trusted with my 1 year-old daughter?

er..........wow.

hard question to answer.

But I can say this. why answer this? Are you searching for a babysitter? and as such, isn't WP a weird place to look?

I did not know people thought this about gay men. Do they think this of gay women too?

I know right?

Its so stupid.

I'm pretty darn certain that all it is, is homophobia on some level.

People think of gay people badly because they are different. They don't think about them in the same sense they do themselves.

In the end, its just xenophobia.
And so human it hurts.

Why must me constantly be afraid of what is not like us?

people are stupid
the vast majority of people are stupid!

and anyone who comes and says "no I'm not blah blah blah" is because if your not-you know your not
and wouldn't bother replying to this
because you know "it don't apply to me, I'll go post elsewhere" or add your feelings to the topic

From what I've experienced in high school, I'm going to have to say the answer is "yes".

Erm...I suppose there's more than one way to interpret that, but go ahead Wink

That one puzzles me abit, have to admitt that when i
was younger and first learned of these things, for
some reason i automatically thought that, that if you
were gay you wanted all men/or woman around you, to
say it really really stupid. Of course i got it after a while
and saw how dumb my thinking was, but puzzled me alot
why i thought like i did and why many others did the same
thing, must be a human-thing

I try not to think any different about people, a couple of times when I was in highschool I would tell people off. There was this one guy that some girls that sat near me with him thought he gave good advice, often the stuff I thought was obvious, well kind of stuck his nose into things and I thought was wrong on some things. One of them is when he said something sterotypical about gay people, I snapped and said that there just people and anyone would think that the way I said it I was gay myself. I personaly hate all this stuff about stereotypes, but I belive in being yourself, and i think that the way people act these ways is that they want to stay in there shalow groups.
