Why do some people only "tolerate" gays?

What, why

How are they any more disgusting or annoying than bigoted, sexist, homophobic 'lads' who go around shouting about how many 'chicks' they've slept with?

But yeah, the same old intolerant, hateful attitudes are coming out on this thread, like the classic perception that ALL gay people fit the exuberant, feminine, high-pitched voice stereotype which plainly isn't true. And I can never understand the views of the right on homosexuality who will always spout the same old rubbish like 'Oh its a liberal gay agenda blah blah blah...', as if the increased tolerance towards homosexuality and the LGBT community in the 21st century is somehow a bad thing. I mean just look at countries like Russia where you get beaten up and tortured simply because of your sexuality, how on earth can any decent person want that in their society, they're human beings who just happen to have different sexual preferences to you through no fault of their own, why do they deserve to be treated like aliens or be treated any differently to anyone else, when homosexuality has existed for 1000s of years.

they like to do sex in the poo-whole which a lot of people dont like to do, but they tolerate that behaviour as long as its private.

Are we suppose to bum them too?

....

Why appear anonymous?

I'm going to assume here... If you're not okay with being openly gay, why expect others to do so?

Nope, just treat them with respect and like an actual person instead of a tolerable disease. But if you want to do that to them then go ahead.

I'm not homosexual aha. I stated that earlier so why don't you actually read the posts before putting your pennys worth in.

Sorry, didn't feel like reading the other five pages, my bad. What's your reason then?

For what? I haven't asked anyone to do more than tolerate; I asked to see what everyone else had to say. I have personal experience with this sort of thing from gay friends and gay family members. So, I just wanted to express a point.

I think before he didn't know - he kissed girls and even fingered one at the back of a cinema. He went away for summer 'straight' and when he came back to school he was gay and his voice and actions changed

I find it ridiculous also. Many of my friends have stated that they hate seeing gay couples kissing in public because they're "showing off their gayness". Just no, stop being immature. Straight couples kiss in public and they're not "shoving their straightness in your face" are they. Some of my female friends have also stated how they wouldn't be friends with lesbian/bisexual girls in case they "came on to me", yet they have straight male friends that could also "come on to them". It annoys me how some people have such pathetic views. Some people are gay, get over it.

More heterosexuals do it than gays, so that's a stupid argument.
