Ugh, why is it so hard to treat everyone with respect? No matter who you're attracted to- I will not judge you. It's okay to be gay/bisexual and black. Also, part of respecting other people is being open about your sexuality before having sex!

@securetech2007 A lot of things aren't right, but there is a such thing as cause and effect. Human behavior does not occur in a vacuum. Things happen for reasons. In this case, many hide because they are not accepted in society to be who they are. Secondly, with fake HIV diagnoses being rampant, black men are also getting a rep that is entirely false: accused of giving HIV to their mates and spreading AIDS, when there are clear signs that this is all a lie. We tear each other down over a lie.

@Trelli28 Oh gee. How will I ever go on?! Some anonymous moron thinks I'm ass. :_(

[Trelli28]

@brainuppance well then it's settled. You're an ass.

[brainuppance]

@Trelli28 Um how so? I read your "convo" and my comments stand.

[Trelli28]

@brainuppance you're the kind of person who talk before you think or even learn the context of a conversation before jumping in. keep doing that...

@Trelli28 Quotes from the bible do not prove anything. To even use them in logical debates is silly. If u believe the bible, fine. But none of that is something that can be factually proven. U just either believe it or u don't. Period. You people forsake all common sense, science, intelligence, reasoning, logic, personal testimony, etc., in favor of a few sentences in the bible, the truth of which there is absolutely no proof. U simply choose to believe it in spite of that. Be honest about that.

@blktenorpower 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God."

-The Holy Spirit in a person brings the Kingdom of God

@blktenorpower Romans 1:26-27 "26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. "

@blktenorpower Romans 1:24-25 "24Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25Who changed the truth of God into a lie..."
