The Gay kid says hello to the new kids.

You have voted Little One for the Way Above Top Secret award.

Great post.

hey littleone, thank you for your kind words. i voted for you as well.

my mother accepts me but still insists its a choice, not an inborn trait.

with your permission, i'm going to print your post and show it to her today.

not to get really gay but i think you just gave me the vapors

I'm suprised at the amount of gay people on ATS.

Silly ignorant me!

Welcome to ATS my friend,

First let me start by saying ABSOLUTELY nothing about my sexual preference whatsoever, that is not the point.

BUT, the people on ATS should, in my opinion, be the very last to judge anybody about their beliefs/preferences/whatever. Is this not a forum to discuss the strangest of strange? Opinions are just that, opinions! When you start to name call and bash a fellow human, well.....that's just wrong, pathetically wrong.
In a world where we must try to understand, not agree, but understand differences...we should be showing this new guy the red carpet treatment and welcoming him to our forum. Took some guts if you ask me, and those who bashed this guy probably completely reaffirmed him of everything he feared!!

Again, just welcome the guy, and stop personally slamming him.

Great post little one.

It's a shame that people can't be a little more like you in your views. I'm sure your son is so proud to have you as a mum!

Some of my friends have had huge problems coming out to their families and its heartbreaking to watch.

Of course your son didn't choose his sexuality, like I didn't choose mine. I can't understand why people would think that a gay person would choose to live a way of life that opens them up to bigotry, intollerance etc, plus all the emotional heartache and worry of coming out to family and friends. Many of my gay friends say that if it was a choice, they would have been straight, as its a far easier way of life. Don't get me wrong, they are proud to be gay but people really don't understand what every gay person has to go through in firstly coming out to themselves, accepting they are gay, then they may choose to come out to family and friends.

Out gay people are courageous IMO

Welcome...

I have a question for ya:
Somehow a debate started last night on whether there are more gays in the Democratic or Republican party. Do you know where there are stats showing what percentage of the both parties are gay?

Welcome Ford Farmer. I'm glad your a happy person. It's quite an asset to have
happy people around. Niteboy's avatar's are most entertaining. My super-hero alter ego is a dyke feminist who drives a hummer that's been converted to a wiener-mobile.




They just hate gay men because they hate women.

Hey Ford Farmer!

I hope you continue to enjoy your time here on ATS

I don't understand why FordFarmer feels compelled to announce his sexual preference to new members. It was nice to greet them and offer help but why raise the "I'm gay" flag up the flag pole? Is it an attempt to meet new members that may also be gay?

I don't know of a single poster here on ATS that announces his or her heterosexuality to new members.

Strange, strange indeed!

hmmmm I was wondering, since this thread is gay... does anyone know of any other species of mammal on the earth that exhibit homosexual tendencies?

On another note I am kinda gay as well - I feel I am a lesbian trapped in a man's body...

I am a man that has dreamed of being a lesbian.... oh wait that was just a fantasy.

Then my wife started screaming at me and I was back to reality.

What? I'm not the only gay guy on ATS? Grrr!!! Now I gotta get a new gimmick dammitt!

Um hi ... gay kid... you have been here longer then I so what is with the belated 'hi'?

He was saying hi to new membes. Offering help if they need it.

And whats point in anouncing to everyone your gay like that? ........ attention? Or did we seriously need to know what way you take it? .. Because I did not need to know.. it was honestly none of my business to know your preferance. This is what turns alot of people away from gays.

If saying your gay turns people away from gays, then that isn't the gay persons problem. He didn't ask for conversions, which is awfully generous, I want my free bagel-smart toaster.

I am so so so sorry niteboy! .... But no toaster for you.

I thought he was saying hi to people here.. which might be why people are saying this like 'welcome aboard!' and such?

What I ment by turning people away from gays was the flaunting of it for apparently no reason. It would be like me telling you my favorite position with a women!

I am sure you two will be good friends though.

Hey Farmer - Welcome to ATS

OK Tykonos- I went to the link - But gay vultures??? Now that is just plain wrong!!!

Welcome to ATS!!

I apologize in advance if this has been answer already by the author of this thread.

Why do you feel like it is important to mention that you are gay? Is there a reason behind it?

I would really like to know. I personally do not like labels on people....they usually do a terrible job at discribing the individual.

Let me first say that I believe everybody is entitled to their own preferences and I don't condone one for being straight or gay.

My question to the OP. What does your being gay have to do with, well, anything related to this website? I don't think it really has any merit on this site, unless being gay is a conspiracy or something that directly pertains to the material located on this site.

Oh and here's my introduction...

The Straight Kid says hello to the new kids.

Do you see my point?

Welcome to ATS! As you see, there are gay members and parents and friends of gays in the place.

And LittleOne, what a wonderful post! I voted for you for WayAbove!

She is a Woman, He is a Woman , but in the Body of a Man, but i only made this up to point out that, these two could infact get married if they existed because they are Man and Woman in body but would go against the acceptance of the Churches values, but the church could never realise it!.

I actually got the Idea from a Woman that i used to work with who told us a few times that She is a Gay Man trapped inside a Womans Body, never could quite work it out, at the time i thought she was just trying to tell us she liked Anal lol but at the end of the day i really dont know, but i never forgot her claims, one of those things i couldnt ever quite put my finger on.

Actually my sister is bi. I am gay also BTW. Back to my sister. She is happily married to her husband for 3 years now. They also usually have a girlfriend that they share. Is this the definition of marriage....one man and one woman that share a girlfriend? Seems the "church" didn't care. As long as it got it's money. Anyway, welcome Ford Farmer.

Also, talk about a straight man's dream....my brother-in-law has threeways with his wife all the time with other women.

I appreciate all of you reading a mothers point of view. Thank you very much. If anything can stomp ignorance... its usually a Mama's wisdom. Be it hard to come by or easy.

You have voted Little One for the Way Above Top Secret award. You have two more votes this month.

I have just read your post Little One. Congratulations on raising such a fine person. If only all the mammas where as great as you. I know a few people who don't even speak with their parents anymore. Because the parents basically disowned them. I also know of a few people who recieve money monthly to "stay away". It saddens my heart. But your post brought back some joy and I thank you for that.

Just if you're wondering, my parents have been great since I came out to them. Even so far as my mother keeps outing me to my relatives saying "if you don't like it...too bad".

I think what he means is, this is a conspiracy forum and I don't think many care or want to know if someone takes it up the ass or not. I personally am getting tired of the politically-correctness bull(snot) going around on the news, schools, work, etc.

This isnt match.com where you find other fellow conspiracy theorists on a 1 on 1 brunch with a motel room for gay-sex or any kind of sex for that matter. So, why should we care about sexual and physical preferences on this forum. (sozzy if i seem so up-tight. tired of the "tolerance" thing going around when the fools can't tolerate being criticised as the same they do to everyone else.)

One other thing that sickens me. I've been to some of these Gay Pride parades/rally and its almost like going into a crowd having a fetish orgy and none of them having any voice to speak up for a positive image of the gay community.
