this was ridiculous just how long it took him to make his point. also if everyone were gay what would happen in terms of the future of mankind? would it be sperm donors being the genetic parents of millions or what?

@maxgunn555 I'm sorry that this was hard for you. It takes patience and some openness to get out of your own worldview long enough to understand a different perspective. No one is suggesting that the world would ever be dominated by gay people, but what if you had to grow up with a secret you were afraid to share? How would it impact your relationships with others? That's all.

Celebrate your bisexuality with full confidence that you are a beautiful manifestation of the divine. If you're going to cry, let it be from joy. All other tears would be poorly received by the powers that be.

I would like to thank you for posting these videos on youtube. I can completely relate to everything that you said and that self loathing piranha ate away at me for years before i could accept myself. i wish i had found these videos when i was starting the self acceptance stage, i'm nearing the end of that process and i am much happier person now =)

[bmcnaught]

It makes me really happy to find that you have fully-accepted yourself as beautiful, natural, and most-worthy of joy. Thank you for your kind words. I too wish there had been something available to me when I came out. But, we survived and were strengthened by the process. I just look forward.

Thanks. The guided imagery in this DVD gets the second strongest response from anything I've done in 35 years of training on this issue. The first, which would be true for everyone doing training on gay issues, is telling my story. People respond to our stories of growing up feel different.

I doubt that most heterosexuals are going to get far enough into this video to feel the full impact of it. Sorry, but even most gay-friendly people still have the attitude of "So you're gay, stop making a big deal out of it."

But I think there are a small minority of heterosexuals who will watch all of the video and who'll have a much better understanding of what it's like to be gay.

So there's value in this! Thanks for posting.

FASCINATING analogy!

[BananaSandwich1]

in summary gays are stronger than heteros cud imagine

[BananaSandwich1]

@TreblePop we only made a big deal about it cos every1 else does

[maxgunn555]

@iamthegame09 asked 5 months ago what if everyone were gay not if everyone were straight...

[iamthegame09]

@maxgunn555 If everyone were straight and paired off to have as little as one child the world would soon become grossly overpopulated leading to hunger, overcrowding and in extreme cases....death.

@poolerboy0077 i had the courtesy to read your essay so do the right and read mine and i can assure you you will learn something. wow what a douche and confirmation that you never actually read my answers and yet wrote back thinking you had something relevenat to say. at least read the paragraphs near the end it talks about how doing things at the margin causes negative externalities. bascly, gay people want children>being gay makes it harder for other gay people to have children ie 'wrongness'.

[poolerboy0077]

@maxgunn555 Your unlettered pm with all its mumblings, misspellings, and lack of punctuation was erased. You can return to your manga now. Good bye.

[maxgunn555]

@poolerboy0077 anything else to say or do you think that was the most important part of my comment. anyway my response to your latest comment you have yet to respond to. and the pm might educate you a bit as well.

[poolerboy0077]

@maxgunn555 "owned."

Thank you for proving my earlier point that your endeavor was a silly, childish game of "pwning" people online. Saying you 'owned' me is akin to one laughing at one's own jokes.

[maxgunn555]

@poolerboy0077 it really needs to be disproven again coz it's so easy. there aren't levels of gayness per individual so you can't compare it to an individual drinking too much water. its just about the level of gayness in society in total. just like the level of people drinking a sensible non self harming (LOL) amount of water in society. the water wouldnt do any societal wrong but a high level of gayness would complicate the gays being able to have children through surrogates/adoption. owned.

[maxgunn555]

@poolerboy0077 its called the future so stop being so narrow and short sighted. dont go into futurology whatever you do. i've already disproven your stupid water analogy. anyway enough. i googled what if everyone were gay, this is what i got. sadly the phrase is used for emotive purposes not actual thinking about societal what if scenarios. like what think tanks get paid to think about. and you're the douche who 'attacked' me.i wasnt doing that to anyone i w as just debating.
