There seems to be a contradiction but there isn't. If my son were born with a tendency to gay behaviour I would love him all the same because he is my son. A more extreme example: if he were born with a furious temper and became a murderer I would love him all the same. But I am not going to show him videos to convince him that murdering is quite common and acceptable. I may show sympathy and empathy for murderers but I would hope my son will not be one of them. Got my point ?
Of course I would not love my son less if he were gay, transexual, smokes, drink, takes cocaine but I hope he would not watch videos to make him feel it is quite common and acceptable to join in. I have no doubt that my environment and the perceptions of others have contributed to what I am. For example, if I grew up in an environment where people punctuated their sentences with vulgarities and profanities and made to believe it is quite natural and acceptable I would more likely go along with that kind of behaviour and reaction even though I may not be born with a tendency to that kind of behaviour.
So far as I know you are a sensitive lady. The plus of being sensitive i that you empathise and sympathise with others. The minus of being sensitive is you become too self-conscious, get easily hurt, even over judgemental at yourself. Most likely you are an introvert. I am also an introvert. But I learnt to accept what I am and enjoy being an introvert and for the sake of other try to be a bit extrovert but accepting the fact that I am not. Hope my comments are helpful to you. Wish you and your family blessings and happiness.
This is not sour grapes: I was offered free tickets a number of times but i never accepted them. I'll look out for part 2 of your story. Blessings to you honeys.
I am not against them and their choice. I only have to think through some of these questions: What would I say if one of them were my son? What if my son were to be influenced by them and decide to be like them?
I am not gay, transexual, bisexual, white, or black. I was born yellow but has turned sunburnt brown. But we are still people. If two people agree to share anything even their own lifes why deny them ?
Amazing! You look awesome! Or is it picture of your son?
Deari, you have posted a gem! Just want to add this: You may growl at intruders like you want to kill them but never at your boss. Never ever growl at your boss. Never never grumble at the scrab food you have been offered. It's a dog's life but thank God it is better than a lot of people's.
tsk tsk tsk Americans Wake Up !
You forgot one more thing: 9. Dying happily after doing all the above.
I am looking forward to complete doing all the above too soon. Just joking.
Stop laughing at the place I came from!
scary!
Keep this picture and show it to any kid who ask why is it we are told not to play with fire. This silly big guy either didn't have a mother or was not listening to his mother. We can still learn good lessons from bad mistakes. Serious. Just look at his face.
