Don't adoptions by Gay couples violate a child's right to have BOTH mother & father figures as parents?
Before you start bashing me, read my full question I support gay marriage. But I am not sure about gay adoption. How can we overturn age-old customs of parents = mother & father ? How do we know for sure that this radical change is not going to have any psychological impact on children ? Are there any studies conducted and scientifically approved ?
Opinion on gay public affection?
I think public affection in general is gross. I mean it's okay when people give quick pecks on the lips or hug each other in public or hold hands (not awkwardly) then it's actually pretty cute regardless what orientation, but the whole making out and groping in public.. Regardless of what orientation you are I just wanna straight pepper spray you.
Why are some folks offended by public displays of affection by LGBTQ people?
It depends on the level of offense.It may be that they are trying to keep any kids around from seeing the natural event early, leaving them unaware of gays (and think about little more than Bible texts) for most of their early life.It may also be that they just aren't used to seeing anything they aren't seeing in their narrow-minded social circles. They would be as upset if they happened to see a fox killing a squirrel.And they may be older folks who are extremely bitter as they couldn't even think about anything like that when they were young, and they are embarrassed that their straight partner has no idea….
"Kissing and holding hands in public" Part 2?
"Holding hands is tolerated for married couples but kissing and petting is considered an offense to public decency." The Dubai Code of Conduct. Ok....................................... But what about those Paki and Indian guys who are holding hands? When I first came in the UAE I thought they were all gay!! That's in my eyes an offense to public decency.................lol!! And discriminating to all couples, married or not!! It's weird that couples cannot holding hands in public regarding UAE law and all those guys can................. But we always walking hands on the streets or in Malls and I am sure no one would be offended,because many couples - even locals - are doing the same. No one asks if you have your married certificate with you.
I think gay affection and sex are disgusting and it can make me physically ill to see it happen. Is it hypocritical of me to be pro-gay marriage and gay rights?
Absolutely not hypocritical at all.You know what I support fully? My parents’ relationship. My parents, a dashing man who is my father and a beautiful woman who is my mother, are married. You may or may not be surprised to find that as a heteronormative couple, they have rights that don’t necessarily need fighting for…but, if their rights were ever questioned, I’d certainly be pro-them.You know what absolutely disgusts me though? My parents kissing. Or good God Almighty: the mere thought of them having sex makes me want to vomit.In fact, just the other day, my mom got a little FRISKY, if I do say so myself, and smacked my father’s bottom when he bent over to pick up the trash.Positively revolting.I was shell shocked for a good three seconds. And boy, did I make sure they knew it too. I screeched, “OMG, ew!” in their general direction to the best of my ability.This is all a real, true account.I support my parents’ right as human beings to love each other, to live their life together, and to be intimate together.But, holy moly guacamole, I do not need to see any PDA besides level 1, PG affectionate smiles, hugs, and chaste little pecks.As you can probably tell…if you sit down for a second and think logically: you are not required to enjoy gay sex to support gay rights. In fact, most people who are heterosexual probably feel a bit of something uncomfortable when they are faced with the idea of gay sex. Likewise, homosexual people might feel similarly put off when thinking about heterosexual intimacy. Somethings just aren’t everyone’s cup of tea.(Ever look at turkey vulture on the side of the road eating a deer carcass left behind from roadkill? I have. And I thought, yeah vulture! You’re super cool. Do your vulture thing eating dead things. Nice to see you, glad you’re alive and well, but I sure as hell wouldn’t want to be you, eating roadkill all the time. I’ll stick to my salad. That doesn’t mean that I want to rid the world of vultures. In fact, I’m a huge supporter of people learning about why vultures are vital to ecosystems and why we should conserve their habitat and right to live in our built world.)Just, sit back and relax, honey. Live your life.Continue to recognize people as people and worthy of human rights. Don’t get too caught up in a sex life you’ll never experience. Those details are privy to people who are gay. Don’t worry, they’ll have the gay sex. You have the straight sex.All will be fine.
Gay men kissing in public yes/no/maybe?
Clearly there is homophobia as there were numerous straight couples engaged in exactly the same behavior yesterday while kissing (passionately) my new boyfriend in the park in front of the cathedral in Guadalajara Mexico, we harassed (ID's, you need to know your place lecture, i be the law in these parts) by the police. in final analysis, i refused to agree that it was wrong, remaining adamant in about my rights and the police decided that it was going to be more trouble than it was worth. we walked away hand in hand. The fact is that in Mexico City gay marriage is legal. would it be illegal for a gay married couple to kiss?
Is PDA allowed in public places of the Philippines?
Well, the Philippines will put Paris to shame by the number of people committing PDA in public places such as malls even if the general ambiance of most cities is mi casa es su basura.Anyway, I agree with Michael. It shouldn’t happen as much as possible. People can just act normal and hold hands to let other people now they’re already in a relationship so the next time they meet, hands off. But that’s not the case for the Filipinos. Romance, particularly chick flicks and “love teams”, is the official religion of the Philippines. That makes us more “devout” in girlfriend-boyfriend relationships than most Europeans, and that’s also the primary reason why couples here show their love in an indecent and toxic manner such as PDA.Here is a Washington Post’s map.
