How mad does a wet hen get?

I am not certain if I personally know any gay people or not but it was not rocket science to realize that they do not choose to be gay. Consider all the opprobrium and punishment they are put through, no one in their right mind would choose that. Somehow their wiring does not match their physicall being, is that a crime. As to the sexuality of gay men, that does not seem to upset some straight men when performed on a woman, not that I can understand that either.

So if we are going to say that all men (and women) are created equal in the eyes of their creator, perhaps we should practice what we preach.

They came out here several times for dinner and such, and we always had a good time.
You've changed bro. For the better I might add . Just don't let those crazy phuckers at Westboro Baptist know that you're flyin' the Rainbow colors.

Welcome to the 'Straight but not narrow minded' club, as Merrylander put it.

NOTE: I wasn't trying to be an ass, earlier.

I have just always found it odd that folks desiring nothing more than to be treated the same as anyone else are defined as "having an agenda."

Nice thread.

No Zeke it is just that people like to deliberately mis-use words so as to further their agendas

Welcome to the real world. Nice to observe your slow evolution over the years. Keep it up, you're getting there.

I believe there are those with an agenda in every group, but that doesn't mean every group has an agenda.

Not you and Jay getting married ... Gays and lesbians should have the right to marry.

Nice thread.
Neither was I.
I was just trying to explain that these two don't pay attention to politics like many other people.
I ,OTOH, do pay attention & do have an agenda.
