I have been stamped a homophobe or at least a person with homophobe tendencies by one or two of the members here. I do not have a problem with that really because I do understand that I cannot even pretend to understand exatcly how someone different than me (be it race, sexual orientation, gender, etc...) feels. I used to have a problem with it, because I really try to be as open-minded as I can about everything. I guess all I cansay is just be yourselves and try not to put too much stock into one philosophy or another because what may be true for some (choice/genetics/etc...) may not be true for all. Why is it hard to believe that a certain individual can choose and for another to have been born that way or to have been influenced by life's events or whatever? I think all apply and not just to these topics. We are a mixed bag of humans and I have seen many things, to perscribe one single set of rules to anyone or any group is futile.
