anyway..

The trend I can’t stand is young people going out of their way to be nonconformists. “Fuck society, this is who I am, bla bla bla”...yea you are so unique and different, just like everyone else w/ 10 piercings in their face, and tattoos everywhere. lol

Try making a statement in life by something you accomplish or by your winning personality, not your physical appearance. it just makes me think you don’t really have much to offer on the inside, so you set yourself apart from the rest of society to try and be different. I know there are a few exceptions, but generally, that’s how I feel about teenagers like that.

i think every teenager goes through that phase though..the i wanna be a rebel phase when u r like 16. i know i acted all tough and MR know it all when i was 16

sorry, i should have said "young adults"...like people who are still like that and in their 20's.

but to sum everything i said up, the trend itself is people going way out of their way to be "different"...but only physically you know?

another thing i find funny is hair dressers w/ short black and purple hair. i swear to god every trendy salon i go to, all the chicks in there have short, spunky hair w/ purple or blue in it...they look like a bunch of clones walking around, but i guess they do it to be different??

Your custom status of non-elitist looks funny in conjunction with those two.

We actually were on topic, we were merely explaining ourselves to one another. Just because it wasnt in "list" form doesnt mean we werent on topic.

and for the record, saying back on topic, putting in your thing and then restarting the discussion with a little off hand jab of "oy yeah and its not a choice" comment is a pretty selfish little thing to do.

It doesnt make you look like you are trying to keep things going well, i makes it look like you want them just as bad, but first you want people to see what YOU think about cool stuff. Because you know.

Anyways, im sure you have no idea what you are talking about. People always try to polarize issues into either or. Its both.

In the end you have a choice on whether or not to act out your impulses. I guarantee im more of a sadist than most people are gay. American Psycho completed me.

Who knew?

so if you really are against elitism, i suggest getting off your (in your mind) high horse before someone riding a war horse decides to stomp you for good

*puts mndeg costume on*

YOU'RE A RACIST!!!!

*insert something about Asians here*

I thought they found the gay gene? I might be wrong. Anyway, homosexuality doesn’t really bother me, but I don’t think gay couples should be raising kids. Don’t ask why, it’s just how I feel. It would subject the kid to a lot of pressure growing up. one of my best friends (a girl) in middle school was raised by her mom and “aunt”…I didn’t figure it out back then, but looking back (and after she told me), I was like, “oh yeeaaaa”. hehe her mom was gay and it was her lover, not her aunt. Anyway, my friend had a lot of emotional issues and a SHIT LOAD of resentment towards her mother growing up…always rebelling and disrespecting her. I’m sure it was because she was mad that her family was so different.

Also, a friend of mine is flaming gay and he’s a certified genius too...went to Princeton...the guy just knows how to sit around all day figuring out formulas and could probably teach himself latin in one day....lol

anyway, he said he knew he was gay when he was 5. I believe it.

Orbax, what if you were told that liking women was wrong and against God? Wouldn’t it be hard to NOT be attracted to them or act upon it? It sure would be. You can’t just say, “Oh don’t act upon your impulses”. It’s easier said than done.

death is perfectly natural just because you haven't come to terms with it and homosexuality doesn't mean it's "WRONG"

The thing is, however, that homosexuality has always been treated as different. Before someone brings up the Greeks, it was a power thing. In nature and in some societies (prison for instance) homosexuality, primarily gay homosexuality was used to dominate other men. The phallus being forced into someone is a power trip and thats why it happened. It established hierarchy.

Now actually being attracted to men and boys is something else. I believe Ive already gone past the religious part, and can say with a high level of confidence that mankind as a whole has never accepted homosexuality as a way of life. Until the "enlightened" days we are in now. The whole thing wraps two horrible ideas together. Gayness and Pride. Wtg...

Ive already stated some of the things that bother me about it, besides its societal impact on the group and the individual.

But: in other countries homosexuals are treated better, yes? Its because here in America where everyone takes such F*$#@!ing offense to everything said, that when the issue was first raised about homosexuality being wrong, the homosexual community, or at least the outspoken part of it, decided to get offended.

They took it personally and began to IDENTIFY themselves as gay. That became the focus of their lives. Im straight. Im a virgin. Thank god my sexuality isnt the keystone of my life.

As soon as someone takes a character trait, and especially ones where its currently perceived as negative, and then says That Is Who I AM. They #1 tie them selves to the anchor, so to speak and #2 lose a bit of their humanity by saying they are a thing. Which in turn makes them easier to hate.

At first the ploy was "love your brother" and "hes gay" so you had to love both of them. THat backfired and now there is a lot of hatred towards gayness AND gays.

Instead of just admitting, yeah, there are probably a male and female gender for a reason, they went off and said its natural, and that it, again, ISNT WRONG.

It aint right! thats my point. It is against whatever law you wish invoke be it religious or naturalist or secular.

Most people when defending homosexuality point to their friends, like Sly did. great. Doesnt mean they are doing the right thing because they are fun or neat or whatever.

So, when you look at the current treatment of homosexuals, it is in many parts self imposed. They decided to focus, much like the "black" community has on a negative aspect, and they have decided to stop any social movement and say "we arent moving until we are told we are good and you love us"

not gonna happen. It just alienates you further and further as the rest of society moves on.

Its the same negative impact as being referred to as "African American". It puts that barb that you arent entirely American in there. Whites are whites, even though they are just as diverse as the African community, but God forbid you call a black a black, because that is racist!

Its just the trend in America to take offense to something and immediately polarize the issue and then everyone gets to choose a camp. For or Against. and this is sad because it puts the chance of resolution and mediation to almiost nil.
