These Posters Pretty Much Guarantee There's Something You Don't Know Yet About The LGBTQ* Community. Rachel Maddow- The case for gay marriage. Letter to Dr. Laura - Absolutely Hilarious. This has been circulating on the internet, but I haven’t seen it before. I thought you might find it rather amusing. It is very clever… In her radio show, Dr Laura Schlesinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance.

The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, penned by a US resident, which was posted on the Internet. Dear Dr. Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God’s Law. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God’s Laws and how to follow them. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I’m confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God’s word is eternal and unchanging. Your adoring fan. I read this, having received it by email from a good friend, and I couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

I love you, man! (Thoughts on the restricted nature of straight men's friendships.) | www.xyonline.net. The other day as I picked up my daughter from daycare I heard a young boy (who was probably around four years old) calling out to another young boy across the parking lot. “HAVE A NICE WEEKEND!” He yelled. “I LOVE YOU!” The other boy stopped dead in his tracks, turned around, and loudly called back: I found their exchange utterly charming. But at the same time it got me to thinking: just how long will it be before these two young boys reach a point where it is no longer socially acceptable for them to loudly profess their love for one another?

Loving another man somehow makes you gay? Ask a straight woman about her close female friendships, and it is highly unlikely that she is going bother wasting any breath asserting that she is not a lesbian. So just how do we hetero guys “connect”? Take fishing, for instance. Sometimes the activities slow, the fish stop biting, the game ends, and intimacy begins to emerge even so. Yes.

The coming out story I never thought I'd write - Life stories. I’ve read stories from people who say they always knew they were attracted to the same sex, or that they figured it out at a young age. I’m not one of them. I had practically no idea until one night in my sophomore year of high school. I was at a basketball game, and the guys around me started pointing out cheerleaders from the other team they thought were hot. I began to wonder: Why wasn’t I looking at the cheerleaders that way?

And why was I sometimes noticing the other team’s players instead? My heart rate quickened and my mind spun until a thought surfaced: This is what it means to be gay. Only it couldn’t be. I just didn’t fit the stereotypes of gay men. My confidence would swell each time I convinced myself a girl was attractive – and it would crater whenever a guy provoked a much stronger, more instinctive response. Eventually, I learned how to compartmentalize. I found my mark on a Friday night in late October 2000. It was three years before I did anything more. It's time.
