You're really close minded in my opinion, but hey, we're all entitled to those. I'm not a fan of the gay pride parades because I don't believe in forcing people to watch crude displays. If a straight pride parade pulled what a lot of gay pride parades do, everyone would be in a bit of trouble. Just because you're open about your sexual orientation doesn't mean you're entitled to make everyone watch you make out with strangers. I'm all for gay rights and all, but crude displays and the in your face kind of attitude doesn't make anyone happy.

  • [quote]You're really close minded in my opinion, but hey, we're all entitled to those.[/quote] Which is why I posted this question. I was hoping someone can explain what part of my opinion is close minded so that I can have a more 'un-close minded' opinion. I want to learn, but that doesn't mean I want people starting a rant against me. I just want others to give me their opinion as to how I am close minded.

  • Well, in this day and age people want others to be accepting of other views. You don't seem to be quite accepting of the gay community. When people don't agree or support others, it can hurt feelings or in extreme cases, limit rights to others. Your opinion made you seem like you didn't support a community that's been under some serious oppression. And because of that, people are going to type rants and bad mouth you. I think if something is really important to you, like not being friends with the gays or whatever, don't give in just because everyone is disagreeing with you. Holding to what you believe in and your values defines you as a person. And nobody has the right to take your beliefs from you.

    Wait wait, you've misinterpreted my post and automatically assumed I was against gays. [quote]I think if something is really important to you, like not being friends with the gays or whatever[/quote] If I become good friends with a gay person, I would eventually start thinking 'does this guy like me?' [b]just like how, if I started becoming good friends with a girl, I would eventually start thinking 'does this girl like me?'[/b]. [u]So why does me saying[/u]: [quote]but I will not approach a girl and be good friends with her because I wouldn't want her to like me[/quote] [u]label me as nothing, but me saying[/u]: [quote]but I will not approach a gay person and be good friends with him because I wouldn't want him to like me [/quote] [u]label me as close minded[/u]?

    In both cases, you show signs of arrogance, and or insecurity of your sexuality. It's k brah. Not everyone is secure with themselves.

  • You don't want people to like you is all I'm getting from this.

    Hm, I like my conversation with Mr Psychologist much better (I was hoping for a conversation along the lines of mine and his). I don't see what's so confusing about what I said (especially since I purposely tried using the simplest words I could and made my question very clear for the sake of having a proper conversation).

  • Lol, i've already understood his point of view. I'm trying to understand your point of view but it's hard when it ends with a 'you're confusing' comment on something which wasn't confusing at all, especially when you're not even telling me what was confusing. I'm not trying to get anyone upset here, I just wanted to get my question answered by you since what you said was what made me ask the question: Why does me saying: [quote]but I will not approach a girl and be good friends with her because I wouldn't want her to like me[/quote] label me as nothing, but me saying: [quote]but I will not approach a gay person and be good friends with him because I wouldn't want him to like me[/quote] label me as close minded?
