My friend asked me a question that got me thinking. If your best friend one day told you he was gay, would you still be best friends? Being the open-minded person I am I said "Of Course" with his response being "Your Gay!"
Anyways I was just wonder what's the Giantbombers opinion?
Your Views on Homosexuality?
I'm not saying only guys, Homosexuality as a whole. I think if your gay, good for you that's your business.
Personally, I think having a dick in the ass is pretty gross. I don't mind normal dudes who happen to be gay. It's the flamboyant hyper-feminine in-your-face gays that bug me. Anyway, I'm done with the gay marriage debate. The government should give the church some other word for their union, and legalize marriage for gays. Not only that, they should let dudes marry dudes, chicks marry chicks, one dude marry 5 chicks, let a dude marry a 500 pound gorilla he's sexually attracted to, let a woman marry a cardboard cutout of George Clooney. Just let anyone marry as many of anything as they want.
" I wouldn't mind if he was gay as long as he wasn't attracted to me. ""Gay men usually have better taste than to be attracted to people who'd say such a thing."
At least when I said something similar to one of my friends who was gay, that was his response to it. I found out shortly thereafter that playing "wingman" to a gay man in a straight club is a guaranteed good time. :)
If it was a friend I already had, then I would never dump them just becasue I found out they were gay. I don't go out actively looking for homosexuals and am honestly more comfortable being with heterosexuals. It would be wierd for example trying to talk about how cute that girl on the bus was when you know your homosexual friend has no interest.

i'm fine with it, i have gay friends.
Although the gay people who shove it in your face deserve to be ridiculed. The ones that it's ok to call a Fag.
I have some difficulty, although to some point the more gay the guy is, the more I could think I`d accept it. Might as well be out-front. There was a actor in a british comedy on pbs and such, he cracked me up, It would be easy to accept someone like him. And he had his limits and morality. It`s just he was shifted on the sexual spectrum, and acted like it.
But seriously, a friend's sexual preference is not my prerogative. I'm their friend because of their personality, not because they're "straight" or "bi" or whatever, and that'll continue. Will our relationship change? It might a smidge, but we'll still be best friends.
This." Homosexuality is gay. "
No I wouldn't care, "You like it in the butt? good for you... just don't give me the details."
The only time gay guys bother me is when their "Flaming" gay, But that's because flamers are just gay attention whores, And attention whores in general piss me off.
I would love the idea. This is how I see it, the more gay men there are in the world the more women for me. Being real though if my friend told me he was gay I would be cool with it. On the plus it seems that gay guys hang out with some really hot women.
One of my friends is very much gay. So if any of my other friends came out, it wouldn't be very much of a shock. Thou, in my city there is a very large gay community so none of it comes of a shock.
Yeah same here. I'd like to say our friendship would be exactly the same, but I know deep down I would always think differently of him, not necessarily in a negative way, but just wouldn't see him as exactly the same person." I wouldn't mind if he was gay as long as he wasn't attracted to me. "
" I'd like to say our friendship would be exactly the same, but I know deep down I would always think differently of him, not necessarily in a negative way, but just wouldn't see him as exactly the same person. "Basically this.
I'd have no problem with it as long as he wasn't attracted to me or something. Then it would just be too creepy to really face him.
" @JJOR64 said:It's like a big revelation, and I think it's pretty much impossible to think of your best friend the same way ever again. You're always going to have that on your mind.Yeah same here.

I think that if you have a friend that is going to open up to you about something like that, they are saying a lot about what they think about you, ie. being a good all around person non racists/bigot/homophobe and that they trust you with that information regardless if you choose to accept or reject them for it. How you actually feel about the situation I think will naturally very based on your exposure and also your pre conceived notions. In all reality most gay men are not just rampantly attracted to any dude that moves, generally they have types like straight guys with women. Most people act like homosexuality or being gay is a by touch or conversation transmitted disease, which it is not. Family and people that you meet over your life through school, work, gfs, friends or clubs that turn out to be gay are just regular people but they are not the same. You should realize that it's not something to be afraid of and it's not an attack on your masculinity for someone to be gay. Think about for instance how women(in general) deal with gay men, women or anything in between, not so much hating there or fear that it will somehow rub off. The other truth is that in most families there is someone that is gay for instance my uncle is gay. It was not something he just decided geee i'm gonna like dudes now out of choice it's like an affinity for something, just like you don't just happen onto some gay porn and decide hey gee this is doing it for me on wednesdays. That is a common misconception choice, generally it's concluded it's genetics and just growing up, difference now is that people are coming out younger and also frankly some stereotypes do exist about gay dudes and some of those can be annoying.
Anyways my point here is that you should try and keep and open mind about things and not be so focused on yourself, also don't worry if your gay you would know it because you would not be so attracted to women so it's not like saying hey that's cool man when a friend trusts you enough to tell you about something serious about his life. Is he gonna ask you to go to a gay bar as his wingman well maybe that is where you set the bar.
Koodos for bringing up the topic and you guys being pretty mature about it.
" I'd have no problem with it as long as he wasn't attracted to me or something. Then it would just be too creepy to really face him. "That's par for the course with a friend of the opposite sex as well. If a close girl friend of mine who I wasn't physically attracted to had a thing for me, that'd be an awkward situation for sure. Though I imagine the whole "gay" thing makes things even worse.

Just let anyone marry as many of anything as they want. "I'm not sure if you're joking, but personally my support for marriage rights stop at gay marriage. I'm all for gay marriage, but polygamy is just demeaning, and allowing people to marry animals or objects means you have to give those animals or objects the same rights you give a human being and that's just ridiculous.
