Sexuality

[BrainOfSweden]

Aren't countries like USA or UK more tolerable than... most of the rest? Most of people in Poland think that being a homosexual is a choice, and I even heard once one guy saying that gay couples shouldn't be able to adopt children, because "they'll surely make them gay too".

It's getting more and more accepted in Sweden. Those who don't tolerate homsexuality are usually old fashioned people, they mostly live on the country side that are more or less isolated from the rest of the world. Trust me, I've lived in really small town in the forest for about 18 years. But overall, it's tolerated. Haven't you seen the fundamentalists all over the world raging over Sweden because some of us want to allow gay marriage in church xD? I even now a few gay priests (that are not pedophiles which some may think)

Is that site satire?

I don't think sexuality is a choice. I think recognizing your actual orientation is a choice (as stated earlier, many people choose to let society dictate what they should find attractive).
I thought I was straight until I was almost 18. My mom always wanted me to marry a nice Jewish boy and have two kids. However, there had been many signs that I was also attracted to women... As a basic example, when I first watched porn I thought the guys were all ugly and was mostly into the lesbian stuff. But I managed to ignore this for many years until a silly game of truth or dare made me start thinking about it. This realization didn't make me dislike men, but only that I can be attracted to women too. It hasn't been easy to be in a relationship with another girl, and my family and friends will treat me differently than when I've dated guys. Honestly, if I could control my brain I'd probably choose to be straight since it's so much easier. But as I cannot, I just accept it and find friends who like me for who I am.

The silent majority is more silent than ever.

I don't know if that's a serious site, but that's what I'm talking about.

Sorry, I don't think I understand what you mean

The majority are those who don't speak up; those against aren't as vocal as those who support. At least that's what I got from it...

That website is run by the Westboro baptist church, and is serious. Assuming the whole organization isn't one huge trolling attempt, as some believe.

The Westboro Baptist Church kind of makes me laugh a little bit.
