Alot of people seem to have a problem with gay people.  They seem to think it's very discusting.  I personally don't have a problem with them.  Why would I? They are people too.  Everyone has a right to love who ever they want and be with anyone they please.  I actually started talking to this guy, and well we became pretty good friends.  He ended up telling me that he was gay, and it never even changed my opioion on him.  I didn't treat him any differently. Instead I talked about his way of life as a gay person.  It was actually pretty interesting, cause I have never actually talked to someone who was gay before.   He said that he did not choose to be that way, but that he wouldn't want to change, cause that's who he was and that since he was a kid, he's always remembered feeling that way.  He told me that he would notice guys before checking out girls, and that he never told anyone, cause he was afraid, no one would accept him.  I watched a show on t.v last year about people who "came out of the closet" , and there was this one guy on there who was in tears and telling the camera that he did not choose the way he is and that he tried killing himself a bunch of times, cause no one would accept them and that he would do anything to be "normal". What is normal anyways? there really is no such thing. How could people think that they all choose to be that way, when there is people out there that wish they weren't gay? it makes no sense to me.  I don't think people have to agree with their lifestyle, I just don't think people should act the way that they do about it.  like the gay marriage thing for example.  ANYONE should get to marry who ever they please.  To me, it's like it's almost rasict.  They are judging and leaving out people who they think are not normal.  If you don't like seeing gay people together, don't look.  They have every right to be together, as you and I have with our boyfriends or girlfriends.  Keep in Mind...You don't gotta love everyone, just don't hate people you don't know. 
even though i have no problem with them, i also don't understand how i would feel if someone i knew, like close to me was gay. not to sound mean or anything, but i think it would be a pretty different story, i am sure i wouldn't know what to really think, or say. Even though my feelings for them wouldn't change, the way i would act around with them probably would. Cause say my sister was a lezbian, I couldn't talk to her about boys.
