I'm a bit confused by it all. They reckon it's a genetic thing but there are so many gays now and they seem to be mostly males. Does that mean homosexuality is mostly a male thing and that the genes have been latent or have there been many homosexuals in hiding in previous generations? I think for many it IS a choice but maybe not so for everyone.

I hate this type of thing. Even I not like this I always oppose this type of practice. In my way these type of people are not good for our society.

First of all do not address gays as things, they are human beings. Second, Hate is a very strong negative words, why hate them so much? Have you ever wonder if they like you? Third, I would respect your opinion for not liking gays at all. Their practices is not your practice so why bother not to like the practice. 4th, You may say that gays are not good to your society...BUT ARE YOU??? Society encompasses all people in it including gays and you. If you think that they are not good to your society then, your society sucks having you who is narrow minded, and a lowest tolerance for people inside your society. I pity you having a little understanding on the fact that gays existed and they are human being and they do not deserve this "machoismo" condemnation. I have gay friends, and i love them and they do not deserve to be called a thing!

It has become quite open to talk about gays and it is probably healthier for society. I don't really know anything about gays but I expect them to be the same as other people. We are all humans after all. Cheers!!

I know a gay couple who have been together for many years and are very much in love. They are guys and I went to school with one of them. He knew he was gay when he was in his early teens. He tried to have a girlfriend and be 'normal' if there's such a thing but could not live a lie and living a 'normal' life for him meant coming out and start being who he truly is. He has been with his partner for ages and you can clearly see the love between them to be very real. There are heterosexual couples that don't share what they have. I wish people would just let them be; love is love.

I thought I am the first one to response it, but it failed when I posted the response. Luckily I checked again just now,or I will missed today! you know, this is your first topic! I take it seriouly! As for the topic, I think they have the equal right to seek their own delight and happiniess. So I can accept the action and give my best respect to them! And I believe it really has the true love! GOOD luck to you! We expect more topic to show here! Lol---

I am not gay, so I cann't tell if boys' love is true or it is noly a vent. Relationship is an inscrutable thing. Though I am heterosexual, it is still hard for me to tell what is true love. What I mean is not that people heterosexual have better understanding of true love than homosexual. It is because that heterosexuality has been main current for a long long history. People sings for love, study love, but the love are always between a man and a woman. So we get rich knowledge about how and why a man and a woman fall in love with each other, how a relationship between a man and a woman goes on, and how to maintain it, develops it. The attention on heterosexuality influence our understanding of love. While Homosexuality is a new topic compared with heterosexulity. We get fewer theories and knowledge about it. I guess as homosexuality attractes more and more attention, our understanding of love will change.

Gay people don't bother me. They are just people who have a different life style. When I was in service I knew a couple of gals that had that life style. We were good friends but they knew I wasn't into that and never crossed the line with me.

Well, good start for a topic. I am intrigue that you have chosen this one. Anyways, i am sad that homosexuality is a bit off in China. I got gay friends and i am happy to be with them, its too gay, and fun. One of them is chinese from China, he is bothered that his family can't accept the fact that he is gay. One thing he have shared to us is that when he ask his family this..."if you would not understand me, who will?" He happen to be my friend's lover. I see their love for each other and i believe it is pure. They made me realized that gay love is not vent. And LOVE itself is unconditional. Facts, gays exists, and gays are human who is capable for LOVE too. Drawing a line for norm will not allow anyone to achieve the truth. People must be open minded that diversities existed and it is really happening. Why question gay love when we can embrace and accept that gay love is same love for heterosexuals.

Hi Cico and welcom to mylot. Well you certainly picked one of the more controversial subjects to start off with. I honestly don't know how many gay people are in China. I can tell you that I know some gay people that are married and some that have lived together for years. They are very much in love. They don't deserve to be treated with the discrimination that they endure.

Hi Cico, Welcome to myLot,I hope that you will enjoy your time here and make lots of friends as well as some money. Now to your discussion, it is very important that people understand that gays and lesbians are born that way and therefore are no different from the rest of us. There have always been many gays around but it is only in recent years that they dare to admit it. Even today, it is very dangerous to admit that you are gay in some parts of the world. I live in Canada where gays and lesbians are allowed to marry and adopt children. It has been legal here for quite a few years now, but fifty years ago it was not accepted at all,so they had to hide their sexually which was terrible. Homosexual love is true love and couples who marry, or even life together have a better track record than heterosexual couples. In most cases they also make very good parents. Blessings.

Actually, we couldn't say it in general because every individual differs. There are some gays who are very inclined to their values and have high standards with regard to their ideals and preferences. I do believe that some gay couples are really feeling GENUINE love. I mean, who are we to speak about love. We're merely humans, flawed in a lot of ways. There are different views when it comes to love. We just consider this gay love phenomena as unusual. Humanity rejects the unusual. As quoted as well in "X-Men The Animated Series" by Storm, "Humans fear what they do not understand." Thus rejecting it. We aren't qualified to become judge of the gay relationship, because we do not understand how they feel. We haven't been there. We haven't felt what they felt. It is not right to provide negative judgment upon them because they're also like us. They are emotional beings who also need love and acceptance. But because of society's perception of the gay community, it's very hard for them to express themselves. The best thing we can do is to evaluate ourselves with our flaws before we examine the defects or differences of others.
