I voted NO because I am not homophobic. I've never thought of homosexuality as something I could "catch" if I got too close to a gay man or a lesbian .. that's so ridiculous it's laughable .. and so very sad. I have friends and family who are gay, lesbian & bi .. I treat them no differently that I do any straight friends & family and I love them with all my heart because they are my friends and family. Homophobia is just another form of bigotry to me. Just another excuse some people have to treat their fellow human being badly.

I never knew Kirsten was a lesbian! She plays Garcia right?

Well I consider myself 100% not homophobic. My uncle is a bit homophobic, he doesn't like to watch Will & Grace because there is a gay character in there huh.gif

I'm not homophobic, I always think that gaycouples seem extremely cute together (also straight couples, couples in general actually) and even though I never really fallen for another girl if I would I wouldn't mind one bit.

I think it would be fun if one of the characters on criminal minds would be gay, seven characters…one has to be gay or bi right? wink.gif (not that two are and get a relationship together, just that it's mentioned slightly in a episode or so)

I did know that Kirsten had a girlfriend, good for her, I hope she's a great person.

I voted no, a few of my best friends are gay and it's definitely not something that bothers me! I've never had a problem with people being gay. Sadly, I know plenty people who are homophobic.

I wouldn't say i'm homophobic but i do get a little uncomfortable when i see them kissing,i can't watch a show when 2 women or guys are kissing on screen,but i really couldn't care less if people are gay or straight,what i don't like is when they feel the need to shove it in our faces with marches and blowing whistles,that's what i don't like...I mean you don't see straight people marching through the streets telling everyone they're straight..

Sorry if i rambled on a bit,that's just how i feel!

I don't consider myself to be homophobic.....As most of you probably know I don't support gay marriage but that doesn't mean I hate gay people! I think Garcia44 stated it very well.

See that's what i don't get,why have gay parades,if they want to be gay then be gay but they don't have to shout it from the rooftops and ram it down our throats....I don't want anyone taking this the wrong way cause i've got nothing against gay people,i would speak to anybody gay or straight and i would actually trust a gay person before i trust a straight person but i just don't understand why they have to have gay marches,you never see straight people having marches and telling everybody!

Well, I am obviously not homophobic as I myself am gay!!!

Trust me.. Being gay is not a choice as people think. People think "people are becoming gay because they think it is cool." um... No. Not at all. The reason we see a "rise in homosexuals" is not because there are more homosexuals.. There are just more OPEN homosexuals..

I really hate it when people say "this world is becoming gay" or saying "one day she will turn gay" and all that crap. Because you do not just "turn" gay!

for as long as I can remember, I have been attracted to guys. But just because I like someone of my own gender, it still does not make me a bad person or a completely different person. People make it sound as if being gay is all your life.. It is not! It is a small part of it. For me, being gay is totally normal. Because I did not choose it. It is just normal!

One does not have to support gay marriage, and that is ok.. Obviously religion has a role in that.
But, one should never be homophobic and hate someone just because they are gay.. Now that is ridiculous!

Thankfully not one person on here is homophobic(as of the votes!)

Well yeah, but please realize that most gay people do not participate in these gay parades. I myself could never see myself waving rainbow flags lol

Do realize though that when one is oppressed, they generally grow in pride. I mean before WW2 Zionism was sparse.. Chabad, and the chief rabbi's of many cities did not support a Zionist state! But after WW2 its support grew majorly. Same could be said about many different people.

So please, do not think that all gay people participate in these silly gay parades. I certainly don't. In my opinion, they only add on to the stereotype. I mean if someone likes that subculture you see at gay parades, then I am totally fine with that. nothing wrong with that. But to put the label "gay" on it presses it too far, as most homosexuals are not like that. Even the metro homosexuals hate such!

I'm a big fan of slash.... tongue.gif
Ok, more seriously: I live in a gay world, my boss is gay and he is the best boss in the world, a large part of my collegues are gay and my best friend is gay. When I knew my husband at school years ago, I was convinced he was gay. (well, it was before marring him) MGG is not gay, but at the beginning I REALLY thought he was and I thought he was outrageously hot, anyway.
So what? Gay, straight, blond, brown, no difference for me...
I am pretty convinced I'm not homophobic...
have a look....

it took me THREE months to make this up...LOLOLOLOL!!!!

There is this union in Holland, the Christian Union and they think gay people shouldn't be candidate for a public function in politics. Too bad they are in our government.

The union I hate is the union leaded by Geert Wilders. He's a big racist.

I don't have any problem with people being gay or straight ,i just don't see the point of parades telling everyone but like you said Kyle it's only a minority that participate in it....I am not Religious whatsoever so if 2 people want to be together and care about each other a great deal they should be no matter what sex they are,my Uncle is very good friends with a gay couple and he says they're the 2 nicest people you'll ever likely to meet...

You also don't become gay overnight,it's probably the same as being straight,it's always been there but alot of people are more open to it now so there isn't a stigma attached to being gay as there used to be,i mean they're just human beings like the rest of us and as the saying goes we should love our fellow Man!
