Is it a shame of being a lesbian or a gay?

Just for discussion. If your friend told you that he/she's Les/gay, what would you do? Would you still be his/her friend just like before? Would you feel shameful for having a friend like this? Would you think that your friend is getting some disease? (disease here means being a gay/lesbian is like getting a disease)
Feel free to talk about it.

Why should I mind about this? Every body in this World does have a freedom of his/her own! In some countries are legally recognizing these types of relationships. It is very easy to react and pass a comment on any thing which may not look normal to us, but if get into the depth of the subject then we realize how complicated is the matter and why a person is acting so!

I don't feel it to be a shame. Being a gay Or lesbian is as causal as being straight. One of my friend is bisexual and am casual about it. It's about having different preferences and I believe whatever one preference one has others should respect that.

As long as a person is happy then it should not matter who they love. It is their business and their choice. I have many family and friends who are gay. I don't see it any different then any other relationship.

@Evaaaaaa I am sorry to hear that. It is sad when people have to hide who they really are.

I don’t mind having friends who are lesbians/gays. In fact, I have a lot of friends from the lgbt community and I love them

I would do what I can to help him/her out of the closet or make it as easy as possible. My daughter is bisexual and my neice was trans gender. I am not homophobic and have a few friends who are gay or bi.

I developed friendships with a fun group and learned through the grapevine when someone came out of the closet. It was okay with me to each their own and all that but one thing I did find a little disturbing was all the attention it brought?

@Evaaaaaa Surprise, surprise right!
After a while people stopped talking about it and moved on to a new topic. Makes me wonder just how much people like the attention both for the person coming out and those giving their opinions. Do you like being open about some parts of your life or prefer to keep it private?
