Homophobic People

LOL that is SO true!!! I know NUMEROUS men who get all gaga over a lesbian couple (ONLY if they are hot looking though and of course for all the wrong reasons) but holy if they see two men in love FORGET IT!! all hell breaks loose and even more so if its two good looking men!! ppl are just so stupid IMO....like you said cyntrow it was a sweet and harmless kiss...ppl really do need to let it go and realize that we (the g/l/b/t community) have ALWAYS been here, we are NOT goin anywhere and are becoming more and more accepted and proud as well as out of the closet...

You are so right. When I thought about it after reading your comment - it was all men that balked at seeing two men kiss. Women just bought their papers with no comments.

Wow yeah, that's true. Another set of double standards in gender. lol

Well put MrNiceGuy. Just as the paper has the freedom to portray it as normalcy, I have the right to disagree with it, and even be bothered by it.

How is two people expressing their love for each other considered "public indecency?" That is extremely offensive to me as a gay man. If, on the other hand, you were to say that a man and a woman kissing is "indecent," then your argument who have at least some validity. However, for you to deny a gay couple the right to even embrace one another because it is "indecent" is totally intolerant and a backwards view. And it is not "portrayed" as an acceptable alternative lifestyle, because its not an alternative lifestyle at all, its the way some people are and there is no choice involved in it. Now you can disagree on that point, but again your argument is baseless because you have no evidence to the contrary and I assume you are not homosexual yourself as I am. I did not choose to be gay, just like people don't choose their race or the parents they were born to.

You knwo whats a real trip to me though, I just realized you are from Canada so I'm even more surpised but you are from the East Coast arent you? maybe out your way things arent as accepting yet as in Ontario which is where I'm from (southern).....Regardless though, I think its just foolish....ppl need to give it a damn rest and realize we (g/l/b/t) arent goin anywhere ya know...we're here and we're damn proud of who we are and wont (many of us but not all obviously) hide it anymore....

It's kissing. It's just kissing. Their not screwing on the front page. I find the disgust to be very sad.

I agree, I don't see the point in making such a big deal about nothing. If you don't like it, don't buy it, read it or look at it. Whatever.

Amen!

You're right.

Im not religous but i do know if god created this word for it to be populated excuse me if i am wrong but that can only happen between man and woman. I am neither ignorant or selfish or homophobic , i dont have a problem with people loving each other and i never said anything about hetro's showing their love for each other, get your facts straight and like i said ADAM and EVE not ADAM and STEVE

LMFAO gay men really are a riot to party with arent they!! and your point is actually a very good one....lets face it it would definately sell more papers without a doubt! +++ for pointing that out!

Sorry, but how can you say you have no prejudice against gay people but that you just don't like them, that IS prejudice. You have prejudged gay people as doing something wrong, your bias is clouding your judgment, therefore you are prejudiced. Your claim that you are not prejudiced is just plain silly. You don't really believe that they can do whatever they want to do, you just don't want to sound like a homophobe. Well Lardiel, you are a prejudiced person. Don't get me wrong we are all prejudiced to a certain extent, we'd never get through our day if we weren't. I just think you need to rethink your statement that you are not prejudiced against gays, because you my friend are without a doubt prejudiced against gays. Now lets move on to the why of it, well your primary reason is you just don't like them, ok fine, whatever, no argument can be made against that one since our likes and dislikes are your own, regardless of how illogical and ignorant they are. Now as to the unnatural, well I know its been said before, but homosexuality is seen in nature alot, monkeys, giraffes, and many more have all been observed engaging in homosexuality in nature, therefore if it occurs in nature it is, by definition, natural.

So, Lardiel, you are saying that gay people are fine as long as they can pretend to be straight. Or are you saying that gay people are only gay if they are sexually involved? Maybe you are just saying that you don't like anyone who is different from you. That's your right to choose.

From the looks of the picture they were not trying to provoke anything. They exchanged a kiss in a hotel lobby like any other couple in the world would be entitled to do. It is hardly their fault that someone took their picture. I don't notice anything much when I travel. Most gay people don't seem to wear a placard declaring themselves to be homosexual.
