I don't have a problem with straight people but I acknowledge that they are an incompatible existence.

We don't want to be an asset to your community, we don't want to live as guests in your world, I don't care to be viewed as an outsider, or as a token existence in your heterosexual sitcom.

For the gay community at large, It's not about acceptance and It's not about hate, It's about taking what we feel entitled to and not relying on your kind to give us the 'ok' to breath, to live our lives.

We are not your slaves, we are not a subservient group of people that should feel grateful because we are tolerated, so we're going to go ahead and change the rules of society and the role humans play in their interpersonal relations because we find no value in the society and world your people have created.

Frankly your god is dead, long live science.

Original Message OK. So I'm 40 years old, and I came out when I was 16, which means I came out when being openly gay was socially marginalizing, if not downright dangerous to your physical person. This threat came almost exclusively from straight men, and it was the social norm. Since then, this new attitude towards homosexuals has arisen in many quarters, and I must say it has made life easier for me in many key respects. However, in spite of this, I can't say I entirely buy this overnight epiphany that straight men have allegedly had regarding gays, especially gay MEN.

Homosexuals have been treated like social lepers, if not as downright evil incarnate for the past 2000 years. Don't you think it's odd that straight men SUDDENLY got over it? I'm personally pretty skeptical, and don't think this is a change in behavior due to moral conviction, but rather to the fact that it's been made fashionable by the mass media to be cool to gays. Also, straight women have never cared the way straight men do, and since they have so much clout today I think straight men have just caved in to being cool, so their girlfriends don't get mad at them.

Am I the only gay guy that thinks this? It feels phony to me. I just don't believe them.
