I dont. Is the simple answer. Nothing that concerns nor bothers me. Quite frankly I dont give a damn. If we accept same sex couples it will only be a matter of time before we have to accept somehting else to make this world abetter place. Accepting same sex couples will not make this world a better place. Let them get on with, and stop telling people they
must accept them.

Not that long ago it would have been unconscionable, if not illegal in some places for a mixed-race couple to form a relationship. However people have stood up and *fought* against that sort of bigotry and prejudice and now (in most places) these couples can walk down the street openly.

Yeah and although they can walk down the street openly it does not stop peoples prejudice, it doesnt stop racism does it?

Gay relationships *are* becoming tolerated, but only because children are learning more and more that they're perfectly acceptable and reasonable, despite a bigotted minority who want to perpetuate old hatreds.

Yhen I am one of the biggotted minority, even though I accept that its peoples circumstances that dictate this (along with the fact I simply couldnt give two fecking hoots about who was gay and who wasnt ((because I have other more important things to worry about such as how the pips get inside an apple)) ), I still dont think its right. Same sex couples cannot pro-create, and pro-creation is the ultimate aim of humans just like EVERY other species of animal.
I tolerate, I dont victimise yet I get told I am biggotted because as a hetrosexual I believe its wrong. Forcing people to accept homosexuality isnt right either.
I'm bowing out of this thread now, people know what my feelings are as I expressed them in the last gay thread on here.
To those that want to attack what I believe and feel.......what makes your views so rightious and all important huh?
