question about gays

I am straight and i notice that gay people seem very asocial around me. I don't know why. But on hipforums the user "Kif" never replies to what i ask him or say to him. He is gay and i try to be cool. I assume there's a bunch of homoz in this forum and i hope you all don't just ignore me like kif does. and it's not just kif, but some gays i come across in real life. I don't care for it, i have a lot of respect for the gay community: they're high class tastes, they're individualist attitutes, their super-friendly personalities, and how they are not mean like many straight people. I also respect how good of a job gays are doing at opposing the homosexual discrimination. Don't worry homoz, if blacks could get equal rights, so can you all, just give it time.

One last thing: i went to a synagogue which is a church but for Jewish people. This was reconstructionist and most of the people, including the Rabbi, were gay. I went up to the Rabbi and totally said nice things about how much i respect him and he totally blew if off like it was nothing. I didn't get any appreciation and still haven't.

 

Dont you think the Rabbi was simply trying to keep it safe for himself after all unless you knew him for years he should treat you with some mistrust. i cant blame him for blowing it off.

 

i won't ignore you honey. i'm sorry to hear that you've had shitty encounters with gay ppl so far. no good. i would hate to see you generalise about all gay ppl on the basis of your bad experiences. it could be that some gay guys, and i would include rabbis in this, are not so outgoing with strangers - maybe this applies to kif, who btw seems like a nice bloke but is a man of few words - and it isn't a personal slight to you, it's how they are with everyone they don't know very well. it also takes time to develop a rapport with new ppl: is it possible u have expectations of instant friendship?

 

I agree with what james said. you are welcome to ask questions here and you'll most likely get straight (pun intended) answers.

 

Why would you expect gay people to apprecaite that you support them? Its a good thing your trying to be postive though I guess.

 

Ok buddy, for one, you sent me an insulting private message (forget to mention that?), two, Im not online everyday and if I'am online, Im not always here posting on these forums. And if you have a question that you would like me to answer, pm me without calling me a fag!!!

 

I knew there was a catch!

 

Honestly, people don't have to respond to you if they don't want to; it's not necessarily rude all the time. They may be insecure about the subject or something...

 

Im not insecure about anything (Im sure you werent directly referring to me), but because Im gay, that does not mean I post here all the time or even most of the time. Im mostly in the movie threads. But as I said earlier, Im not here all the time posting, so if someone wants to get bent out of shape becasue I wont directly respond to their question (because Im obviously not online) doesnt give them the right to pm me calling me a fag. I didnt respond to his message because I like to believe that Im above that, and I dont care what some anonymous person thinks of me online.
Oh, and thanx for the kind words james q, likewise.

 

np kif, seems our little friend's gone away. oh well, he can't say we ignored him
