I totally understand what you said orinskye....and I liked what you said in your post
My Dad and I just had kind of a similar conversation about the Movie...Brokeback Mountain. HE is old school also and got very grossed out by the 2 men kissing....(he's 78 years old)
At first (and after I laughed) - I thought it was cute...then I realized he was raised in the times that it was a 'crime' against nature ....and of course I don't think my dad is insecure nor is he small minded
I guess my post was geared more to the complete homophobics out there - and there are alot....but yes.....you're right...I should have been more specific in my sentence....thanks for the reminder.
My 2 best friends growning up are gay and I have 2 gay cousins...When we were younger I saw when they went thru & many of the feelings were because someone didn't "Understand" it...but there was outright hatred geared toward them and I never understood how someone could hate someone who wasn't hurting anyone....
If someone has a sexual preference towards the same sex - who are we to judge ? I'm glad times have changed and most people are far more tolerant of this these days....
The funny thing is as much as my dad is uncomfortable with "gay' people....He gave one of my cousins a home for a year when I moved out....MY Room of all things ! Everytime I came to visit my old bedroom had turned into a guys room lol !
