A few thoughts

[wolfraven17]

So in the past few days, been reading a lot about personal beliefs and what not about different things, especially sexuality. I try to always respect what others believe, as long as they are respectful towards me. It occurs to me though, that I haven't made my side of the story known, and I have as much right as anyone to do so :P

This was less about my sexuality being the forefront of who I am, and more what I believe about it, though in some ways, my sexuality is a huge part of who I am. In my life, I tend to be very relationship centered, so therefore who I am in a relationship with tends to be the focal point for a lot of my thoughts/actions/etc...and sometimes it's just nice to have that group (gay, furry, what have you) to point to and say "that's me, those people are like me." However...gay pride tend to scare me. I'm not ashamed of who I am or love, but I don't need to parade it around either >_>

Outlawing same-sex marriage may not tell me who I can and cannot be with, but it sure makes being with a guy a lot harder. There are a lo of things that married couples take for granted that make life rather difficult for homosexual couples. My classic example (and the one that maybe scares me the most of everything) is having your mate get hurt, and some bitch of a nurse be able to legally refuse that you see him/her because she thinks it's wrong. If you are going to give priviledges to one set of couples, you should give them to the other as well.

Thanks for your thoughts
