Gay Rights
February 23, 2014
Gay rights to this day has become a constant battle between whether Gay marriage should be legal or not, or if being gay is right. I believe though that the only reason people think that they are gay is because of sexism and discrimination. I have talked about this a little in another post but I decided to go further in detail in this and to a more extreme extent.
I think that the only reason people decide to come out as gay is because the world around us tells them that they are. If your a boy and you dance or like fashion, our generation tells that boy/man that they are gay and are not a “real man.” When in the first place the guy could have been perfectly fine but just had a different taste in what sports or hobbies he liked. But, when people start to come in and make fun of that person and yell out all of these lies and telling them that they are Gay, they start to believe that and pursue that. They think that because they like those things they must have a different interest in genders. It is the same thing with women. If a girl liked football or is a tomboy then they are automatically lesbian according to our generation. Then the people who begin to think that they are Gay, say that God made them that way. When is reality he didn’t He made them to be a male and like females or to be a female and like males. ONLY when people start to say that if you like a certain sport, hobby, activity, fashion, etc. then you are gay. I can guarantee though that if no one told them that, and said they were completely normal but just had different interests, no one would think that they are gay.
We have this issue now in the worlds because of sexism and discrimination against others, and continues to become a bigger issue.

I respect your opinion, and this is true for some homosexuals, but not for all. Almost all gays are gay because they like the same gender, not because they like to do things that isn’t the norm for their gender.
That’s right! While most people don’t share my opinion, gay people are born gay, it’s not a choice.
Yes it is that’s like saying doing anything isn’t your choice.
When did you choose to be straight?
I do agree. I was actually thinking the same thing yesterday. I do feel though that the world has made it so acceptable that more people think that way now. But, I definitely do agree with you!
I enjoy how you incorporated modern topics such as Gay Rights in to your blog!!
I agree God didn’t make guys to like guys or girls to like girls and it shouldn’t be legal because it is immoral.
Saying that it shouldn’t be legal because it’s ‘immoral’ because your religion says it is would not be religious freedom. That’s religious oppression. Until everyone can do exactly what they want, we cannot be considered Americans.
i feel that people that like certain stuff doesn’t automatically make them gay. its who they are and what gender they are interested in
That’s not what I said. I said that the world would put that label on them. I specifically said it should not have them being defined as that. But, our society is making it seem that way and telling them that if you like certain things than “you are.” But, I definitely do not agree with that. And yes, it is who they are and what they are interested in. Look deeper in this post and see what I’m saying! You will see that I am saying that it doesn’t automatically make them Gay, but the factors of sexism and discrimination of other people make people think that. Hope that helped understand what I mean!:)
I have never really thought of gay rights like this. You defiantly made me see gay rights in a different way. Good job on your blog!
Everyone truly has there own opinion on this topic and I loved the way you stated this! I’ve never really thought of gay rights like this but it really changes the way i look at the world!! Great work on the blog!!
For me, my spiritual beliefs are most of the reasonings why I feel this way about the subject. It really depends on what you believe to really understand this, and your stand point on it changes.
I love the way you are thinking. Do you feel more open minded after exploring the topic?

It really depends on the circumstance. I have nothing against people that way. I do not agree with the general idea but, I do feel a little bit more opened minded. Again it really just depends on what subject of the selection we would be talking about.
