someone trying to control or "value" the sex life of others is very possibly either miserable, a closet sex-maniac, or power-hungry who wishes to gain something by this control.

an outsider judging others based on assumptions of their "life styles" won't have a clue.

one has to decide whom to listen to for support and advice. for instance, i won't pain my days listening to my stupidest, meanest relatives, or the religious right's latest witch hunts, or the neo-nazies claims for Hitler's sainthood... one can choose which other side to try to understand:)
maybe i should've elaborated, my parents raised me christian and although i never (still haven't) come out to them, our pastor preached about homosexuality in this light: having sexual desires for men is a sin (guess i'm guilty as charged) but pursuing that lifestyle, hooking up with men, ENGAGING in those desires is what warrants the title 'gay lifestyle'. i don't care either way i love dick i guess i was just trying to bring another perspective into the discussion. obviously most of us here are going to (and have posted) that it's not a choice i thought this could've been a one-sided thread
