She then said that on Boyzone's new vid for their new single, all of the guys are paired up with a woman who they are singing to and caressing and Stephen Gately is paired up with a man doing the same.

She didnt CHOOSE to be gay, would anyone?

SJS How dare you!! People like you disgust me! You go on about how others see sense..and come round to your way of thinking..that everyone should accept homosexuality as 'the norm' AND YET!! you cannot accept others with different views to you~~even going as far as to ABUSE others as "homophobic twattish peers" AND accusing a BOY who does not agree with you as suffering from the same problem he dislikes!! HE is allowed to feel as HE desires in much the same way you demand he feels this acceptable. To be Homophobic by the way is to be afraid of homosexuality and to dislike something or to disagree with something is not the same thing at all

There are some people who will not and cannot accept homosexuality as anything other than abnormal

Do people think this is a good thing and a good way forward that attitudes are obviously changing (they've changed considerably since my day) or do some think this is almost promoting homosexuality as something cool?

That's because it isn't normal.

It's actually not that common, so the chances of bumping into a 'homosexual' are remote.

When one meets someone during the ordinary course of the day, one expects them to be hetero. That's what 'normal' means - "that which is expected".

There is nothing 'cool' about homosexuality.

Im a wee bit confused to what your definition of normal is!!

dont get me wrong, there is some stigma attached.

but there here and here to stay, and they're just a big a part of society as anyone else................so step down de fcuk of your high horse and start accepting it.

if i'm a homophobe for not agreeing with homosexuality,bi-sexualism or les-bienism then hey! i'm homophobic and proud of my right to object and disagree with the human races biggest abomination of the human design.

Im pretty sure its because narrowed minded folk like your good self.

cant adhere to the realisation, that men all over this little world of ours.......are fcuking each other up the bottoms.........and theres not a fcuken you can do about it....

its gonna evolve

I asked her why she thinks it's cool and she said, "well it's more realistic isn't it and it includes more people, a few years ago Stephen would have had to ponce about with a woman pretending he's straight, so it's good he can be who he is and be proud and happy."

My 16 year old's opinion re homosexuality is that he doesn't have one but he does believe it is very normal to be bi-sexual...at least at his age he thinks it's normal to have sexual feelings for the same sex but not necessarily be a homosexual. When he says he doesn't have an opinion about homosexuality what he means is that he doesn't have any issue with it, sexuality is not something he judges a person on or even feels is his business.

If you look back a few of my posts............i actually mention that id like my son to be gay......

Msg 55. Did it ever occur to you that most parents might not want their children to be homosexual because they know that they would have to go through life listening to opinions like yours?

I could probably spend a pleasant hour, using your twisted logic, listing all the ways that you are abnormal. Nah! Some things are self evident and don't need twisted logic!
