non-straight people Imposing their lifestyle on others.

Hey all,

Just what the hell does the above mean? I hear people saying things like "being gay is ok, as long as they don't push their lifestyle on others.". I have never found it a problem that homosexuals somehow get in the way of me living my heterosexual life, and I can't imagine how that could happen.

I'm guessing the people saying this are mostly homophobes wanting homosexuality suppressed to where they can pretend it does not exist.

Please state your opinions.

PS. Gamespot censored the words gay "gays" and even "homosexual" and "homosexuals", hence the weird title.

10 minutes with me would turn any man gay 8)

It usually means that they can't stand extremely feminine guys.Lonelynight

I can't stand loud gorilla-macho jocks or snobby materialistic girls, but hey, live with it.

haha, it's totally pathetic when ignoramus, stupid straight people consider themselves "NORMAL" and every other kind of people "BAD", not different like blonde and brunette, but "this second, worse CHOICE, disgusting and stuff". gosh I can't listen to that crap! what has being gay with lifestyle? being gay doesn't turn you to metal/skate/emo, republican/fascist/communist, omg anything.. it's just LOVE. heterosexual idiots (only idiots, I don't want to be rude to all straight people, only these homophobic ones I don't respect) say that gay people "promote" homosexuality and other stupid things - and what is this promoting? that they hold hands or kiss each other? and don't heterosexuals do that in public, too? oh, sorry, but they're NORMAL, I forgot; and every other person that loves somebody is eeevil, because it doesn't matter if they DO love anybody, only important thing is WHO they love, not how, why... gotta repeat that - PATHETIC. showing love by straight - "ohh, cute, they love each other!", showing love by gay - "hey, you, why are you pushing your LIFESTYLE on me?!".

Something with nails and heads, anyway, you hit it :)

I believe that's generally what is said by straight people who still believe that homosexuals are looking to pounce on anything of the same gender. "As long as he doesn't try to f*** me, we're cool, bro", etc. It is also said, rather ironically, by heterosexuals who are adamantly against the legalization of gay marriage.

A friend of a friend of mine once said that to me. He said all was okay as long as I didn't hit on him. Well, I assured him he's so butt-ugly that the mere thought of me being intimate with him made me throw up a little in my mouth.

I'm not a homophobe, but I have been called one because I said this.

People can do whatever they want. It's their life. It's when they don't take "no" to their "advances" that problems happen.

...can't you say the same thing about straight people? Is there any proof that gay people are more likely to sexually harass someone?

xaos made me gay - fact.

I wish the Christians would stop pushing their lifestyle on me. Never have a pair of gay dudes come to my door on Sunday to convert me to gaydom. wstfld

I guess they mean that they dont want gay people pushing their ideals onto them, persuading them that their life style is fine despite the other person's belief, and in some cases trying to "convert" them. I've had a gay guy hit on my knowing I was straight and I did not apperciate it after he didn't get the hint the first time.

Personally I dont care if you're gay bi, or straight, I treat everyone all the same and mind my own business. I just don't appreciate someone trying to convert me to their sexual preference.

Actually I just don't apperciate people telling me what I /have/ to do or /should/ do in general..

What are you asking me this for?

I just wouldn't feel comfortable at all if a guy started hitting on me. That is all.

I don't really get it, either. I've talked to a few people who didn't "hate gays" but felt uncomfortable around them, and they all made it clear hell would break loose if a gay-man hit on them.

Gays aren't sex-hungry predators out to get straight men. And so what if a gay-man tried flirting with you? My husband's been hit on a few times, and I've had a couple of lesbians act interested, and we both had fun with it. Nothing to panic over.

Maybe gays are tired of straight people pushing their lifestyle on them... hmmmm

You cant be straight up racist or homophobic these days so people use veiled talk.weezyfb

Gay people are courageous and doesn't afraid of anything.

I can't stand loud gorilla-macho jocks or snobby materialistic girls, but hey, live with it.TheFlush

Because some gay guys are mad hot and have the powers to turn normally straight guys queer Duhhhhh.

Didn't you know? Gay is contagious.scorch-62

[QUOTE="scorch-62"]Didn't you know? Gay is contagious.Theokhoth

I always saw that if a gay guy compliments you than hey you've gotta be pretty well set with the womenz. Then again I've had straight guys hit on me too (unfortunately my long hair makes them believe I'm a female ;____;)

They are under the misconception that all gay people fornicate with one another on sight. Some could operate with this M.O. but not all. Hell, I think straight people are way worse with this.

when people say that they dont want gays "imposing their lifestyle on them," what they really mean is that they dont want to be forced to acknowledge that gay people actually exist.

Most don't but some want everyone to know and for everyone to change their ways so they can have the life that they want to live.

im sorry, but just what the **** does that even mean?

How so?

I think it's stupid. I've heard this all through high school and still even at my job. "It's cool that he's gay as long as he doesn't hit on me." It's not like we hit on or find every single male attractive. :roll:

It's just insecurity.

If you can't handle somebody of the same sex liking you, well that's just flat out strange.
