Don't Want to be Gay, Help!

Did you ever consider the fact that your view is being warped by virtue of what it is your seeking out. One could get the exact same impression of women if their primary interaction with them was by using the Stumbleupon app in Firefox. In generating random websites to view it sometimes seems like every third one is some woman taking her close off for the camera. From that kind of experience one could easily make the leap that all women must be sex fiends who will expose themselves for anybody with a camera.Likewise, if your primary experience with gay men is reading the adds posted by the few hook-up junkies then, yeah... your going to have a warped view of what a gay man is. Keep in mind that we see those who put themselves out there, who want to be seen. The vast majority, however, are just people. People who live a quiet uninteresting but enjoyable life.I doesn't matter how you choose to live your life but please don't castigate a large number of people based on easy stereotypes.

Rad, Grav, and Oldfolks did a pretty good job of saying a lot of what I was thinking when reading your posts, so I won't go back over it again.What I did want to touch base on is the idea that HIV/AIDS is predominately in homosexuals. That is actually not true, and hasn't been for a few years. There has been a steady decline in new HIV/AIDs cases in homsoxuals. Instead there has been a steady increase in cases in the straight African American population, so much so a medical article published last year had straight African Americans as the group with the most HIV/AIDS outbreaks.There was a time when HIV/AIDS was huge in the homosexual population, that was because there wasn't any real need for protection (most of the other STD's were cureable.. not saying that's a good reason to not use protection regardless!!!). By the time they figued out what HIV/AIDS was and how it spread it was already largely infected in the homosexual population. Thanksfully through education and self-awareness the numbers have dropped dramatically.

I first want to start by saying: HIV/AIDS isn't considered a gay disease in anywhere except Anerica. The first person to come to the United States with AIDS was a gay flight attendant. They have actually traced it back. He was British and didn't sleep with women, obviously. That's why more gay men gotAIDS in the US. Secondly, I want to say a few more things to you shawanuga. We are the same age. But there are a lot of differences between me and you. You were scared of getting cancer. I got it. And fought. And survived. You are scared if being gay. Or rather, disgusted you have gay feelings. I felt the same way. I was ashamed. But the thing is, I was never socially awkward. My dad was present. I never acted feminine. My mom didn't baby me. I've slept with a lot of girls. I've dated even more. I've never seen gay porn. And I have to tell you, histor tells us that men were gay even in Roman times. It's not the internet or a product if society. It's what happens. But I haven't been happy. I don't sleep. I don't eat. I felt a hole in my life. But a few weeks ago a guy approached me. I knew he was gay. I had talked to guys on the Internet before. But he was different. We texted. We talked on the phone. And finally we went on our first date this last weekend. And he's not feminine. He's normal. He has a lot of friends. And he isn't obsessed with dick or being gay or fucking. We talk about everything: movies, life, school, friends, drugs, anything and everything. I never get bored of him. And ya know what? He kissed me. He held my hand. He was sweet. And I'm falling for him. This might be too much information. But you have to understand that I'm finally happy. It won't be easy. My mom and dad hate gay people. But I'm ready to face it. I'm ready because I care about this boy and he truly cares back. You pervert something beautiful. You are looking at it the wrong way. Try to open up to the possibility that being gay isn't disgusting. It can't be avoided. And sometimes the love of a woman isn't enough. You don't have to be gay. I'm not offended. But other people are. You are entitled to your opinion. But don't hurt others. We want to help. That's the point. But you have to listen. Don't get so defensive.

That's why more gay men gotAIDS in the US. That is one of the theories on how AIDs came to America, but has yet to be proven. There are several theories on how AIDS found its way to America.To me it doesn't even matter how it got here. Its here and the important thing is to learn how to protect yourself and stop the spread of the disease.

You sure about that?I thought that was proven fact?British or american or mexican I have no idea, but I thought that a gay flight attendant spreading it globally was fact and that they had even IDed him by name.THough it does stick in my head he was bi and not simply gay, add to that IV drugs and what not and how it spread is pretty easy to see.If I had the time Id look in to it, but Im just taking lunch, then back to finishing some shit at the new house and moving, no time for research today.

Thanks Rad, you saved me time hehehe

Forgot to Add... I remember watching a show on Discovery about AIDs and I remember it stating how they were able to trace a case back to the late 1930's. Just some food for thought :smile:
-
I think that would have been in Africa rather than the West. With poorer medical facilities and little reporting, it was there for quite a long time before it was noticed in the West.
-
Well. I can accept I was wrong on the facts. But my point still stands: AIDS is not a gay disease. The thing I am tired of is the thought that AIDS is a means of irradication by some higher power. I was watching a show on Discovery and people gave population control testimonials. It makes me sick. To be cliche. Why can't we just all get along?

I think that's something we can all agree on :smile:

I'm glad we see eye to eye on that point :D.
I should do an infomercial on AIDS.
Ahem,
Wear a condom. Even if you aren't a fanny bandit you can get HIV. Autoimmune Deficiency Syndrome is not picky.Also, if you call right now you can get our amazing blender, The Magic Bullet, half off!

I have a magic bullet blender, since I quit drinking though, I do not use it much.
-
That's a little to kinky.
-
My friends and I went into cupids,and we saw a dildo made by some company called Falcon.We thought that alone was kinky enough.But then it had a hilt like a sword,and it was named the "Man Rammer".Way too kinky.
