Friends of mine are gay. And I don't have to be there when they do... well you know... But then again, I wouldn't want to be there when straight people do... well, that... either.... And if somebody of your own gender can make you happy where somebody of the opposite sex cannot, then who am I to say it's wrong... You have to be happy with them, not me ;)
I'm a straight guy myself, and I don't like people making a fuzz about the women I date, either... It's my life after all. Same goes for gays...
And besides I hate nothing more than banning out people for whatever reason. Okay, I can understand you don't wanna befriend people who did really bad stuff, like killing or stuff like that, but aside from that kind of stuff... Would it harm me if you loved somebody of your own gender? I think not, so why should I care about it?
