i dunno if theirs a thread about this yet but i dont hang out with staigt people anymore becacuse they are not like me and i dont think that i can relate to them because they are just difrent like a difrent kind of animal. is this normal? i think that they all judge me for being gay lol and i dont feel comftable around them anyone else?
Imagine if a straight person said this about gay people: i dunno if theirs a thread about this yet but i dont hang out with gay people anymore becacuse they are not like me and i dont think that i can relate to them because they are just difrent like a difrent kind of animal. is this normal? i think that they all judge me for being straight lol and i dont feel comftable around them Sounds sort of stupid, doesn't it? And highly offensive?
i dunno gay is like a subculture this might sound strange but i feel superior to normal straight people maybe not like rockstarts lol but to like regular people yes because their just boring and im special if you know what i mean gays should take over the world and eradicate teh straigts lol
Do you live in the south of something RanblinMike? Ha. There are plenty of open minded straight people, if you know where to look. That is like a left handed person saying they aren't going to hang out with right handed people anymore. 'Cause their special.
on a general level, theres nothing diffrent from a straight man and a gay man other than the where their love rests. i dont advise you against hanging around straight men, the opposite in fact, thatll just make it seem like gay people are a wierd creature, but if YOU personally dont feel comfortable hanging with straight guys, you cant help that. maybe think about and clarify what makes you uncomfertable and try to tackle the issue? other than that, its a choice for you alone to make, but i think that you should hang with a person for the person and NOT their sex. this kind of segregation is what barriers gays from straights in life, people dont understand each other so they dont want to socialize with each other. that is a bad defense mechanism of humanity.
There are tons of both str8 and gay guys I am not comfortable hanging out with. So, I don't. Being my friend is NOT a public function, AND I do have a very discriminating taste. Nothing wrong with that. I can see that on some level you can only connect with the gay guys, because you happen to be gay. Maybe, it is the unity of purpose? No doubt, the same applies to the str8 dudes. Yet, general and premeditated exclusion is always wrong. Keep in mind that your success in every sense depends on the amount of universal support you can gather at any given moment of time. All the people you relate, their contacts, power and collective wisdom are usually the key to your well-being on many levels. KD
That was exactly what I was going to say. No point reading through the thread, that's all that should be known. Stupid post really. If you feel that way then you should probably shoot over to an all gay forum, as not many people are going to give you the condolence you are looking for here!
Many of my favorite poets/artists are straight: Sylvia Plath Van Gogh Billy Collins Diane Arbus Anne Sexton Marilyn Monroe Charles Bukowski Jim Morrison Harold Lloyd (the silent film comic) The world is a much better place because of these talented folks. --QP
