I think you all need to read your BIBLES.....God created Adam and Eve........NOT Adam and Adam...and NOT Eve and Eve.....please...nature itself tells us it takes a male and a female...say what you want....but, the fact is it's an abomination.

OMG are you serious?! is anyone saying anything about procreation? no. we're talking about love. LOVE, as in wanting to be with someone for the rest of your life. no one mentioned having children at all. and in today's world lesbians and gay men can have children, so read a medical journal or watch the news every once in a while seriously.
and stop being so close-minded. people are gonna love who they want to love, whether you except it or not. i fell in love with my best girl friend whos also full on butch lesbian. im simply bi and i also love her brother.
you can call me WHATEVER you want. because honestly, i have no idea who you are and i could care less what you have to say about me. but you need to realize that your just causing more pain by not accepting people for who they are, if we do end up going to hell, at least we'll be happy because we'll be with who we love. you however, not so much because chances are SOMEONE you know is gay, and you're shutting them out. so good luck with that.

You say you are talking about LOVE...well, let me tell you what LOVE is...it is a sinless man who gave his life so that you don't have to spend it in HELL. You think he wanted to die...Love is not always what we want it to be..but what is right...The pleasures of this life is very short, but eternity is forever. I would never turn away someone in need, gay or not. I would just hate to see them lost when they don't have to be.

I am an old woman. Young people think they invented sex. Heterosexuality or Homosexuality... all the same. Fun, dramatic, heart-warming, heart-breaking, romance, or just a nice diversion. It is what makes the world go 'round.

As a musician why does it matter what your sexual proclivity is? If you have skills you have skills. These musicians didn't become great or famous because of their sexuality but because of their musical talent. I find it silly that so much of who we are as people ends up being tied into who we choose as a partner. Our sexuality is only on facet of who we are as human beings. And as a musician I can say that your sexuality doesn't help or hinder your chops. You dedication talent and discipline do.

Please. Why do you care at all about PEOPLE YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW? Are they kith or kin to you? No? If not, *why* worry yourself with knowing that they think in ways that you don't?
Stop wasting oxygen on issues you don't agree with. If you don't agree with it, leave it alone, genius. For lack of a better cliche, we're all different, and for a reason; knowing that, you should also acknowledge that the freedoms of expression/speech roll right along with that train.
So let people be people and stop trying to make them be what *you* alone believe. As long as people with different ideals aren't bothering *you* personally, you have no right nor berth to "correct" another on what *you* deem right.
Take care of your own, live your life, and don't cause harm. It's as simple as that. Leave the rest of the world to what it will.

What does it matter I mean really love is love who are we to judge others based on their life choices. I actually have some friends that are bi and gay but that doesnt change how i think about them their awesome.

Hi I am Bridget and I am 15 years old. When I was 13 I used to look at girls and I liked what I saw and I was attracted I didn't know why or how but I was. I had discovered that I also liked boys also. I went to my therapyst and has said is this normal for me to be going through do you hear about this from other people. She then told me you are bisexual. And i am proud to say i am bi

who cares! who's gay and who is not! what is the big deal anyway. why make it larger then it is. if people who don't know you and said its ok, then is ok? or does the bible speak the truth. OH I'M NOT JUDGING! I'M NOT SAYING REALLY NOTHING AT ALL. BUT REALLY, WHAT IS CORRECT? WE ARE ALL BORN WITH THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS. BUT, WHO SPEAKS THE TRUTH, GOD OR MAN? YOU DECIDE!

It's not about who's gay and who isn't. I think the biggest benefit of these lists and stories is to show people that you can be successful and not to let someone's notions of your sexuality become a hinderance to you. There are lots of young adults and even mature adults who are afraid to come out and who are embarressed about something so silly as sexuality. Why? Because embedded in our culture is this notion that being gay/transgender/bi/straight means something about the kind of person you are. Seeing that some of these people were so successful AND they didn't let sexuality dictate their path in life only accentuate it, well that's a nice change of pace...
