Members, are you pro- or anti- gay rights?

[Nurzat]

I am not against gay rights, but I will never be a militant in favour of them. if law says it's ok, it's ok with me. I know some very ok gay guys but I can't go out in the street to defend their rights to marry and adopt, wtf... they can fuck each other anyway, it's not illegal. then, if law says it's ok they can adopt and marry, it's ok with me

[LieDetector]

They have rights here in America, as they should. I just don't like them or the media pushing their agenda down our throats. It's not normal so stop trying to make it normal. Have any of you guys seen a gay parade before? FUCKING DISGUSTING!






That right there is one of the reasons people hate them. Why can't they just have a normal parade like everyone else? Oh that's right they're not normal people. It's time we make people like this go back to the closet where they belong.

I'm pro gay rights. I support their right for marriage at least.

Considering this site is usually quite conservative, I am happily surprised by the majority vote.

Live and let live. I don't care if you're gay, straight, bi and whatever you choose to be. Just don't be dickhead. It's about time we saw each other as unique individuals rather than denying people the chance to live as they feel comfortable because they don't conform to the "norm".

Pro

[Rumata]

Marriage - why not?
Children - doesn't sound like something natural for gays. Don't fight the nature, they are on another path.
Gay propaganda - strong No.

Politial and Civil Rights
Free speech: Almost an absolutist about freedom of speech, but there exist reasonable restrictions to it.
Freedom of religion: Yes, except for Islam, because Islam is inherently political in nature (i.e. sharia)


UN-membership: No, the UN is dominated by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, a 57 nation worldwide Muslim bloc at the UN. Saudi Arabia is on their human rights commission.

you even mentioned islam on this thread!!!!

I am all for gay rights, but is it homophobic of me to say I don't like gay pride parades, I think they are showcasing weirdness, that I am not used to seeing in normal life. I don't know how to feel about these. But as for gay rights, I fully support their rights to get married, have children, adopt children, not face discrimination in the workplace on the basis of sexual orientation, etc. And I also would't mind teaching our kids that if Tom and John want to live with each other, there is nothing wrong with that, and inculcate sound moral judgments about homosexuality from a young age. Children are intrinsically good, as long as they don't get brainwashed, they will come to the correct positions on these questions. I am for so called "pro-gay propaganda". I am a secular liberal leftist.

Anti-gays here.
Gays are cousins of paedophiles.

so are heterosexuals
