I hate it when people use the Bible as a resource showing that being gay is bad. Well, the Bible says a lot of things that are bad and we ALL still ignore it.

@vidform Well I think she's talking about being black during modern times in the USA. Blacks today aren't out here getting whipped, lynched, or any of that stuff. There still may be much discrimination against them, but there also is for gays. Blacks aren't denied of the rights of marriage or looked at in disgust. I've seen two gays go out and try to show affection, and people tried to hide their disgust. Some even covered their children's eyes.

@lilfenty3292 and no you DONT choose to be gay, I did not choose to be mixed, this is who I am and I wouldnt have it any other way, I LOVE me, I LOVE the fact that Im mixed, I embrace bein black and latino, just like the LGBT Community embraces and are proud of who they are, bein gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, its who they are..the whole "choose to be gay" makes NO sense to me at all and it NEVER will, "born gay" makes a whole lot more sense

If you're black and homophobic, too me you're a hypocrite, it doesnt make sense to me how a black person can be homophobic after shit black people went through, they were discriminated just like how gays are bein discriminated, discrimination is discrimination no matter what and its WRONG, again if you're black and homophobic you're a hypocrite...as mixed person, black and Puerto Rican and Dominican, and straight person, I am pro-LGBT.
