What is Your Guy's Veiw's On Homo and Bi Sexuality????

[MistOfTheSea86]

Being a New Pagan I wonder what Their Veiws Are, SO what Are your veiws on it.

[Mariposa De La Luna]

Its not my business what you do in your bed or with whom. Its not your business what I do. As long as it harms none, including yourself, do what you will.

Why don't you introduce yourself?

[Earth Walker]

A person's sexual identity, sexual orientation, gender-
identity, etc., is no ones business but theirs.
I get harrassed, but I just have to consider the source.

[Jenett]

I think that what consenting adults do in bed (or not in bed, for that matter) is their business, not mine.

I also think that different sexual orientations probably give people different perspectives on a variety of issues, including how people relate to deity. (I don't think it's the only variable, but I know that some of the way I'm likely to be relating to Whoever Is Lurking In the Back Of My Head <see note below> at part has a sexual component that wouldn't be there if I weren't attracted to men.) And I *am* interested in how that affects how people deal with relationships, whether it's other people or Deities, and I like it when people they can feel comfortable talking about it with me.

<Note: I've had the feeling of some variant of God waiting for me to get enough free time and brain power to deal with getting to know Him. I've got an extension until the beginning of May, so I can finish finals and do my travelling without also coping with the emotional response stuff of such exploration. But I'm looking forward to it when I get there.>

[Earth Walker]

I have a triple whammy, I am a lesbian transsexual
woman, and I get blasted every day. It's only by the
Grace of the Great Goddess that I do not become
more violent--I don't want to have to stoop to the
level of right-wingers by initiating violence.




I am strong in Her strength. :heartthro

[MistOfTheSea86]

I am Sorry I Will Never do that again, thank you for the advice, and for still being there. I am not offended just that more educated.

Blessed Be,

Mystique, you flatter me. :)

Yes, please have a seat on the comfy chair thingy here on the proch and sip your lemonade.

I, myself, am hetro. However, I have no problem with any one else's orientation. In fact I have several friends that are Gay/Lesbian/Bi whatever. It matters not. What is in your heart is what counts?

Welcome and merry meet! :sunny:

Have a great time here. We will respect you nomatter your age and your story is much like alot of Pagans'.

Now, as a mother, I can't let you off! You should NEVER list your full name and age and sexual preference on the internet if you are under age!!!!!!!! Or offer to be e-pen pals to anyone but other teenagers!!!!!! I know you might think "Its not going to be me" but believe me it can be and you are not taking the proper precautions to make sure you are not. I'm sorry my invite to introduce yourself was so open but if I had know you were a minor I would have gave you caution to not divulge such info. If I was you i would go back to my post and hit that little edit button on the bottom right. There are alot of lurkers out there we know nothing about. We will be happy to call you MistOfTheSea86. That ,after all, is what a screen name is for.

Now that I have finished my mommy rant. I hope you are not offended.

Welcome MistOfTheSea86!!!! Have a lemonade and get comfy!!! :D

Never had a problem. As far as I'm concerned, human sexuality is a continuum, variety is the norm, just that most fall into the famous bell-shaped curve. Practically, I really don't care who does what with whom, I'm only interested in what my own 'who' does with me. ;)

I have no problem whatsoever. My two best friends are lesbians, so I've pretty much grown up with it for the past couple of years. I think that if you love someone, you shouldn't let gender stop you, or worry about what society considers to be 'normal' ^_^

BTW: Hi!!

[sherry]

And here is my opinion too!! I don't even think about what someone else does in there bedroom. The subject has never come up from me. I have several friends that have "come out" and I was happy for them that they were at peace with who they are, but........ now I realize that I don't have GAYDAR because friends tell me I could be at a Gay Pride parade and think it was Macy's.
This is probably true I just enjoy being around real people, the type that don't hide their feelings.

But in January when my soon to be ex-husband told me he was gay (not bi-sexual, trust me on this one I believe him!!) I felt like this is something he could have told me 10 years ago! I feel that open honesty is the only way to go!! I might have handled this better if it had been a sit down and tell me whats on your mind type of thing instead of a let me explain what you just saw type of thing!!


I do have trouble with this still, because of the way the events unfolded. I wonder what I did wrong and why he married me, why he felt he had to lie when I would have been his friend no matter what. And why he felt it neccessary to belittle my 2 friends that stayed with us on there way to michigan for their same sex marriage!
I hope one day he will learn to be honest to himself and not fear who he is

[Lilu]

My husband and I are both hetero, but more than accepting of other sexual orientation.

I hate to repeat everyone else here - but what consenting adults do in the bedroom is nobody's business but theirs.

I feel that whatever anyone does in the bedroom is their own business. Although I am heterosexual I know a few gay men and treat them just the same. Although maybe I am a little stiff because my friend who is also heterosexual can go to the gay bars with her male friend and laugh at any advances from woman. But they do know better than to invite me because I don't know that I could be as gracious. Not that I'm not accepting of it but I don't want to see it. It's hard to explain but I mean no offense to anyone...

[freya]

my perspective? i believe that evryone is entitled to love, to be loved, and to their own beliefs and preferences. i believe that as long as your heart is true, your intentions are well, and no one is hurt. than there is nothing to be wary of. if everyone were the same, life would be boring. and everyone is entiltled to live their life happily how they choose, so long as no one is harmed by your actions.
blessed be!

Homosexuality?

It happens, it's not a sickness or a mental illness, it just happens. The problem with it is all of the homophobia and religious rhetoric.

I am pretty openminded I consider myself bi-sexual and have no problem with others opinions. Most of my male friends are gay and I love them just the same. Men, women, boys, girls, its your choice but I draw the line when it comes to animals....

[Wiccan Maeve]

what a couple does in their bedroom is their business, not mine. We fall in love with who we fall in love with because of their heart not their "parts" or appearance.

I hope you don't mean children...I seriously draw the line there!

[Shy Hawk]

I don't know that I consider my self this or that, but I am not in denial. I know that I am capable of loving males and females. I fall in love with people's personalities not their genders or faces or breasts or butts. lol Sorry, graphic? :p
You may call me a bisexual, but I am just able to recognize that love does not descriminate by sex. You may differ in opinion.
I have no fear of or problems with gays/lesbians/bisexuals/transgendered/transvestites or what have you. Polyamoury, and anything that interests you...is up to you as long as it's consentual. I can't say lawful because there are still sodomy laws...may they be wiped out as well.
In perfect love and trust,
Shy Hawk

[Bittersweet]

i think its fine, and im amazed at how people have such strog pc beleifs on racial equality, but when someone "comes out" at school, they get blasted about it for weeks, and treated like a leper. speaking as a hetrosexual, none of it is my bussiness, and i have no experience... i think people should be free to do what the want, or what makes them feel good.. its not for me, or anyone else to judge them for.

[ruthie]

Thankfully the world is a very varied place. Otherwise life would be such a bore! I only hope that there comes a time when everyone will be a lot more accepting, as that can only make the world a better place to live in. Of course, I should add "between consenting adults". As a mummy to one daugther and one cat, keep the children and the animals out of it!

[Swanspirit]

[AS long as CHILDREN are NOT INVOLVED ]
is their own business, and none of mine :>
Minding ones own business is a LOST art ..... would save a lot of hatred, prejudice, and harm ....... if people would just mind their own business and stop judging people ........
It really would.........why DO some people consider other peoples love lives in any way fair game ??? , for judging, condemnation and general interference ?? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :woah: :woah: What is that about anyway ??

Violence isn't the sole property of the extreme right wing.
The extreme left is violent as well.

True true

[Earth Walker]

The reason the Left Wing is violent is because of the
violence that is always perpetrated by the Right Wing!

Ditto. Half of my friends are gay or bi. I find it flattering when another woman hits on me, even though I'm happy in my very solid hetero relationship.

[Earth Walker]

I would like to hear what EP has to say about these issues,
and about transsexualism....he has not posted his thoughts
on these and I am interested in seeing what he has to say.:D

A PERSON'S SEXUALITY IS NO ONE'S BUSINESS BUT THEIR'S AND THEIR CONSENTING PARTNER'S; SO LONG AS HARM COMES TO NONE. IT'S A PRIVATE THING AND NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO JUDGE ANOTHER.

[Sequoia]

exactly.


IMO, it's nobody's business what two (or in some cases more) people do in private, so long as kids aren't involved. I *do* have an opinion on young adults. If it's young adult to young adult that's kewl in my book, but if it's like a 14-17 year old with someone 30-40+, that kinda makes me puke. I don't personally think that's right. . .

Myself, I'm bi. My boyfriend and I have the most interesting discussions about other women -_-; It's a very odd feeling when you'll be sitting there talking about what you find attractive in someone the same sex as you LOL

But yeah, I think that everything's normal, so long as nobody's being hurt, and everyone has a right to be who they feel they are. Nobody has a right to tell a person they're not, so far as sexuality etc goes.

[Shy Hawk]

lol Puma I used to have those conversations....hehe....it does widen the dating pool.

[Dria El]

<probably didn't need to be said but...>

Ditto to most of the above.
