Shocked

[Nemo_Me]

This happend a couple of weeks ago and I'm still in kind of a shock. I was doing my homework on my bed and listening to some music (I just put the playlist on shuffle) and my brother came in to check if I had something he could write on a cd. Then he saw I was playing TATU and said something like: Tatu, pffff.
me: What' s wrong with them? I think their music is really nice.
him: Pfff, homosexuals, failure of nature.
me: I don't think there's anything wrong with them. They're just people, just like everyone else.
him: Are you gay?
me: No I'm not.
him: Good, because if you were, I'd have to kill you.
Then he gave up searching for music and just left me there in a shock. Technicly I wasn't lying to him, or just lying a white lie.. I'm not gay, but I'm bisexual though. And I know my brother well, I've been living with him for 14 years, when he says stuff like that, he means it. So I'm kind of scared right now.

No he's not gonna kill all homos, he just would kill me if I were one. So now I know he'd kill me if he'll find out that I'm bi.

[Anny]

hm... i think when somebody says "i have to kill you" he means that it's the best for you... but what the hell could be wrong about loving someone?! plus: homosexuality is not an illness!! so it would be quite impossible to kill all homos... but (and that's a very interesting point!) heterosexual men watch lesbian pornos! and that's not pervert?!!

maybe you should tell him that yulia and lena aren't lesbian (that's the truth anyway!)

and will: i'm on your side with the protest

[Narcissus]

i didnt say HE wanted to kill all homosexuals...i said that WE should kill all those who dont like gays

[Anny]

yes i already got that before... but good idea will! after that it will be oh so quiet on earth...

last weekend my best friend slept here,
we saw fucking amal but she slept until the end.
after it we spoke about homosexuality and all that and she said,
all men who love other men and women who love other women would be crazy in a negativ way.

i didnt know what to say,
she didnt know, that i loved a woman ...
some days later i told it and at first she was really shocked,
but now its okay, i think, i hope ...

i dont understand your brother,
but i think my mother thinks in a similar way.
okay, she dont want to kill me,
but she want to forbit me to see the person i love
and all friends we have both...

[Anny]

oh was für eine welt! 1. homosexuality is just one little aspect of the personality beside maaany others, 2. nobody decides what to feel! they could be homosexuals too! but they don't think about things like that cause it's sooo far away from their minds...

[Rimfaxe]

judging people of how they look or which gender they love is just wrong!
I freak every time people are talking about lesbians and gays as perverted or "failure of nature" and sometimes I wish I could just shut up, but I can't.
prejudice against gays and lesbian is just as wrong as prejudice against blacks! thats just my oppinion...

What i'm going to say may sound a little mean at start, but keep reading:

I consider homosedxuality as something "unnatural" in nature sexuality was made to reproduce a species and so there must be male and females, BUT!!!!! we are not animals who have sex just to survive, most people do it for pleasure but it's more beautiful when it's for LOVE!

Humans have developed a mind greater than that of animals thats why I think it's a perfectly good explanation for homosexuality to say "people fall in love with the person not with the exterior, it doesnt matter if it's a guy or a girl".

Therefore i have absoloutely no problem with homos, although i must say i still find kinda disturbing to see 2 guys kissing, but i wouldnt want to kill them if i see them in front of me. Absolutely no problem with lesbians.

We are humans and have the ability and freedom to feel whatever we want for whoever we want whenever we want to!!!!

What your brother said was really mean, but what the hell

New blood joins this earth
and quickly he's subdued
through constant pain disgrace
the young boy learns their rules
with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all his thoughts
the young man struggles on and on he's known
a vow unto his own
that never from this day
his will they'll take away

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been
what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never free
never me
so I dub thee unforgiven

Jaret, just a thought here, but sexuality wasn't made by nature. Nature isn't a person who does things. It's a process of evolution. So sexuality developed. Maybe because it made the demanding process of producing offspring somewhat more pleasant. Sounds plausible to me.
But of course sexuality was always also pleasant in itself. So many creatures have found a number of ways to get themselves off that weren't connected to reproduction. There are a lot of homosexual animals, and people as well as some animals masturbate, rub themselves on things and so on.
But sexuality is even more than that. Hugging someone, stroking someone or something, eating, drinking, touching, have all sexual aspects. Humans are sexual creatures as they live and breathe.
And homosexuality is not something that developed as an extra, because we got brains. In fact homosexuality was there from the start and only when we got brains (got civilised, smart) we started to make distinctions about what sorts of sexual behavior were acceptable.
These distinctions are learned. You can call them morals or social norms but the fact remains that they differ a whole lot in different times and places. Which shows that these norms aren't natural. That doesn't make them bad. Some norms and morals are there to protect the weak from the stronger just taking from them what they want. Think about rape or sex with children.
But it leaves us with the responsibility to decide which norms and morals we want to accept as ours.

Actualy homosexuality is natures way of making sure that we don't over populate the planet. And homosexuality is certanly not wrong in any way.
