As the World Turns - MESSAGE BOARDS

"If heterosexual couples can't get it right, what makes you think homosexual couples can."

First of all, great argument. Very logical. (I'm obviously being sarcastic if you didn't guess) Second of all the success or failure of a relationship relies on the individuals participating in it. It doesn't matter whether the couple is gay, straight, bi who cares? As long as the love each other it will last. We're all human beings, and a fairly decent amount of the human population has the ability to love, so once again, the success of a relationship is reliant on the love the two share.

"Straight people don't feel the need to have a parade about their sexuality, ie Gay parade in NY."

First of all, there are no heterosexual pride parades because heterosexuals aren't and never have been discriminated against. For thousands of years gay people have been told they're wrong and evil just for loving someone of the same sex, so if they want to have a parade to let the gay and heterosexual communities know "What we're doing isn't wrong" so be it. Second of all, no one said straight people couldn't have pride parades. Go ahead! Get your parade on for all anyone cares!

"Bottom line and I state it again IF IT WASN'T FOR A MAN AND A WOMAN IN A HETEROSEXUAL RELATIONSHIP CREATING LIFE THERE WOULD NEVER BE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR 2 MEN OR WOMEN TO KISS ON TV. HOMOSEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS WILL NEVER CREATE LIFE! AND IF IT WASN'T FOR A MAN AND A WOMAN YOU OR I WOULD NOT EVEN BE HERE DISCUSSING IT."


Well, I could say if it wasn't for a man and a woman Adolf Hitler never would have been born, and I think most people would agree that in this case and others like it, the oh-so-precious lives created by heterosexual couples are sometimes better left uncreated. Wouldn't you agree?
Second of all, what about all of the infertile heterosexual couples in the world. Should they be hated because they can't procreate? No, they're still allowed to marry and love each other without being hated for it. Why? Because they're heterosexual. You're basically saying if a union between two people is made that can't result in procreation it's wrong... so do you think a case like above involving a hetero couple that's infertile is wrong? How about religious people? I would like to say I have a close relationship with God. I love God and the Bible tells me he loves me, but clearly I can't procreate with him. Is our loving relationship wrong? You would probably say no, but then that contradicts your whole argument against gays. So clearly the whole "gays can't procreate" is a very weak argument when you truly examine it, and I would suggest you don't use it anymore. Unless you can come up with another LOGICAL reason to disapprove of gays other than a deep-rooted prejudice and/or homophobia, I will have no choice but to think of you as being prejudice or homophobic.

"It may continue to be shoved in everybody's faces on TV..."

Uh, no one is strapping you to a chair, and taping your eyelids open to make you watch gay couples on TV. There is a very simple solution. IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, DON'T WATCH IT! Don't try to argue, because it will always come to this point. If it bothers you to the point you have to go onto the internet and let the whole world know, then just DON'T WATCH IT! You may say, "That's not fair because good shows can be ruined by things we don't like and there's nothing we can do about it, wah wah wah." EXACTLY. Television shows don't care to and shouldn't have to cater to the opinions of the viewers. There are plenty of shows out there that have content in them I disagree with, so I choose to be practical and not watch them. Seek another program that you agree with. Get over it.

"...but it will never be right or totally accepted..."

Well obviously. I doubt that there is ANYTHING in this world that is ABSOLUTELY universally accepted. There will ALWAYS be one person who disagrees with a subject, so you're just stating the obvious.

"I don't care how many of you say it does not bother me or it's their life or their business, if you put your business out for everyone to see you better expect to handle any comment..."

So Christians who choose to go to Church and pray should be mocked and ridiculed for loving God with no problem? They're putting their business out for everyone? So it's okay right?

"AND WATCHING 2 MEN KISS ON TV WILL ALWAYS NEVER LOOK RIGHT!!!!!"

While that may be the opinion of a lot of people I know many others who have no problem with it. There are actually a lot people out there, myself included, who only watch this show or only started watching this show because of Luke and Noah. Their fanbase is huge, I would dare to say much larger than any other couple on that show. So a lot of people seem to agree two men kissing on TV looks right.

Basically you (in particular) seem to have very warped views. I respect everyone's opinions and their beliefs in what's right and wrong as long as it's a logical reason. I like to look at things logically, and when someone hates something for no LOGICAL reason, I don't really care to hear them complain.

I'd like to sum up and once again relay the ever-so-logical solution for everyone who has a problem with this, DON'T WATCH IT, and if you choose to watch it, don't complain because you did exactly that. CHOSE to watch it. No one's forcing you to do anything.

Would they be called "hosologists" and instead of a fish on the back of their car, they could put a hose???? LMAO
