Here in the Philippines, there are many people who are g4y.. Actually, they are already expose to the public.. They wear clothes like woman but of course still they are obvious that they are g4ys.. I can say that almost all people here accepts g4y people.. I have so many friends who are g4y and they are fun to be with.. Sometimes, they are more woman than me especially in wearing clothes and in fashions..
What about in your country?? Does g4ys are acceptable?? Do you treat them the same as girls?? You are all welcome to share your thoughts/ideas/opinions in my discussion.. Happy posting..

kissie, here there are still people who are very prejudice, and will beat or kill people for being gay. For the most part though, I think people have come to accept the fact that they are here, and it is not going to change.
I, personally, do not have anything against gays. I find them to be better friends, in some cases, than some straight people. They are not judgmental, they tend to accept me as I am and, I do the same for them.
You are right about something else. Most of the gays I know as friends have a much better sense of fashion than I do.

I don't understand to some people who don't accept those who are homosexual.. They are still human being and no matter what they are still they are created by God.. I think people need to be more open minded and accept the fact that they are really people who are living here in this world who has a kind of gender.. Well, I guess people are people, society are society, it takes time to accept the things that it is difficult to accept and understand.. Thanks for sharing..

Yes, people have prejudices, and I suppose that will never change. The fact of the matter is homosexuality has been around since the beginning of time. Even if the Bible speaks against it, these people are still creations of God, they are human beings and they have feelings and lives, just like the rest of us.

I'm also a Filipino and just like you I've got tons of friends who gays. Most of them went through a difficult time just to achieve acceptance especially with their families. But they're much better off here. In some other countries, they are rejected and even persecuted. They face a scornful society and find it hard to come out. But still they are human beings and as such should be treated with respect.

I agree with you.. Well, for me it is not their choose to be grown up being gays.. I know they decide or choose in that path but what I mean here is that even though they will choose to be a man but deep inside they are not then they will for the rest of their life in the dark because they are not showing their true color or their true self and I don't think they will be happy.. Anyways, thanks for sharing..

well,in my country g4y are not at all accepted!!
but there are still some g4y people in my country...they are considering (i mean we are ) it as a great sin...but i dont think so...thats their own wish and nobody can curse them..but its not accepted here...
they will not publicly expose them to be gay...and sometimes some people here will marry(gays) and that will be the talk of the town!!their photos will be published on the newspaper,etc,...personally,i dont curse gays and at the same time i dont support it...
Goodday,
