Two people refuse to associate with me because I'm gay. I'm not particularly devastated, but it's a slight disappointment there are still a few people who choose their friends based on criteria such as these.

And this is supposed to be a bad thing? Just because they don't want to give cheap relationships based on sexual desires their stamp of approval. Cos by pretending to be ok with it means you condone it.


for you.

Go back under your rock, idiot. :roll:

I've known a few gay people in my life that I've worked with in the past. I didn't choose not to associate with them because of their sexual preference, I didn't associate with them because I didn't like their personalities and the way they acted. Not sure how much the stereotype fits all gays, but for the 3 I've known, gay stereotypes have been in full effect. One guy basically was a loud talker in the so-called "gay" voice, and had no qualms at pointing out guys walking by who he'd "do". The other guy acted as if he was better than all hetero males because he was gay. And the one lesbian I've worked with was more of a man than I was, including facial hair and all. Plus, her personality always left a bit to be desired, and she turned out to be one of the most hateful people I've ever known in my life. Luckily she was fired not long ago because of continued rudeness to customers .

(I do not mean this to be an insult, just sharing my experience. I know how people can get pissed off at harmless posts like mine in threads like these.)

I, also, have had similar experiances. I know a girl who has lots of gay male friends and they are all pretentious arseholes. I mean it, every single one I've met is flamboyant moron. (we're talking 7-8 different gay males) They all start out by flirting with me, then she tells them "I'm not like that" then they're all like whatever you do what you want... and would precede to talk about how 'this guy and that iguy is hot, I'd do him... "

Stereotypes suck, and I don't judge people before getting to know them.. and granted, it might be only this group, but good grief.

I'm sure Canada has it's fair share of homophobic people too.

Unfortunately, there are *many* homophobes/gay haters in the world. I swear that my parents are their leaders. lol

People can change, though. When I came out, when I was... 16... I think... I was kicked out of the Presbyterian church I attended at the time. Since then, they've apologize, said I'm welcome to come back, etc. No chance in hell I'm going to, tho...

Note that I grew up in the country; still live there. The nearest village is Bremen... five miles away. Population is like.... 10. (ok, bit of an exaggeration, but you get the point).

 

[geno]

but when they saw I wasn't going to tie them up and paint their nails and cover them with rainbows they were ok.

Sorry, I had to laugh at that

 

[Zysoclaplem]

In my life I have judged many books by their covers.
I have felt very uncomfortable around many people.
And I have refused to associate with people based on something I know, or think I know, about them.
I did not hate these people. I simply did not want to deal with them. I did not want to know them, or be their friend.

Anything beyond that could be called hating, or a sense of insecurity or jealousy within myself.

So basically, if they don't like you for whatever reason, and leave it at that...I doubt they hate you.

If they go out of their way to make sure you know it, that is a different story.

I would forget about it, and realize that there will be people who don't like you because of the way you look, the color of your skin, your sexual orientation, where you are from, what you drive, how you act...etc...etc.

But if they start making threats, or try to upset you, that is when you need to worry.

Don't think there aren't morons here too.

There will always be people that dislike you for some stupid reason. It's actually nice that they make it known to you - it makes it easy to seperate the losers from the cool people.

they're probably fundies

Excellent reply.

 

[CChaos]

Meh. At least it's because of thier own issues and not because they think you're a jackass or something.

 

[maziwanka]

i guess it was bound to happen (sad nonetheless)

 

[Nitemare]

There is alot of coming out recently. I remember when jerboi was our token gay guy...not that there is anything wrong with that.

I think it's cool that you can be open about it. It's a shame that certain particular groups are so homophobic that they won't even allow gay marriage and still have laws on the book against homosexuality.

 

[Beau]

That's too bad.

 

You're gay and on ATOT, Nebor must be your idol then.

 

[Phoenix86]

One thing you can take comfort in, you won't have to waste your time with those two people... There are just some people not worth dealing with, now you know these two people are on that list.

It's been common knowledge I'm gay to my friends and everyone I encounter since July of 2003.

The dramatic coming out, the lost friends, the conflict didn't happen. Surpising? Maybe.

I had maybe 5 people even mention some uncomfortableness, but when they saw I wasn't going to tie them up and paint their nails and cover them with rainbows they were ok. I'm still good friends with everyone.

So for a long time not one single negative side effect.

Well, today I found them.

I'm in Kansas City, Missouri. It's a pretty conservative area I suppose. I guess I figured I'd run across people like these sooner or later.

*shrug*

Few?
You are sadley mistaken..
There are lots of gay haters, most just don't let you know about it. But they will talk behind your back and back stab you when they get the chance..
This isn't just for gays. it's also for all races..



ps..

I'm not a gay hater.. I experience this from life..

 

[Viper GTS]

Seems most of you need to learn the difference between hate & choosing to disassociate yourself with someone/thing because you disagree with it at some level.

By that same logic I must hate drug users & thieves since I prefer to avoid the company of those who fall in either of those categories.

The upside to all this, of course, is that you're free to avoid me if you don't like gun owners, republicans, or the generally conservative.

Same situation here actually only different with the lesbians....

one of my college friends came out of the closet a few years ago to myself and my friends, we suspected something was up with him all through college but never were sure...

Before when he wasn't open with it he was a really nice guy who you could have a decent two sided conversation with, now that he is out and open everything is about him and his sorded sex life....if you are not talking about what guy he is interested or what gay bar he has been to then he just doesn't want to talk...needless to say I have stopped associating with him.

However the two lesbians I knew were great people, very friendly, fun....overall nice people.

 

[AMDJunkie]

This is what you do. Using your homosexual powers of opposite-sex attraction, surround yourself with the hottest girls you can find who love to hang out with you because they're not threatened by you, and stroll by the straight-hataz. The Bloodhound Gang have documented this, as well as myself, noticing my friend pull in all the hot blonde chicks when he has absolutely no interest in that. It won't make you liked, but it is a sweet, sweet revenge.

 

[KarenMarie]

I am a little confused...

You say they refuse to associate with you.. what do you mean by that?.. Do you mean hang out with you, speak to you at all or they walk away when they see you coming.

I got a little confused by the thread topic. You stated that they are gay haters, but then you say they refuse to associate with you. Do they mean you harm, or just don't agree with your sexuality and dont want to be a part of your life?
