| Gamer Queen Full Member   Gender: Female (MtF) Orientation: questioning but strong towards women Out Status: pretty much everyone except for family (bro knows) Location: about 2-3 hours north of the twin cities in MN Age: 23 Posts: 502 Join Date: Aug 2011 |  "gay turning" ok first off im sorry if this is the wrong spot for this thread, if it is feel free to move it or necro it. lol ( I am also sorry if anyone finds this offensive) Ok so a lot of homophobes say that gay people are trying to turn straight people gay but like its insulting (which it is but for a different reason lol) but when a straight person is PROVEN to be trying to turn gay people straight its met with a positive reaction? just a thought and i have my own theories but am curious on other peoples viewpoints.

| I AM THE LAW! Full Member   Gender: Male Orientation: Gay Out Status: Most people. Extended family doesn't know yet. Location: Kansas Age: 22 Posts: 113 Join Date: Jul 2011 | Re: "gay turning" Obviously people can't be "turned" one way or the other. But I think the reason why if gay ppl are thought to be "turning" straight people they don't like it because they think we are "freaks of nature" and stuff like that. But if straight people try to "turn" us straight, they think its ok because they think that straight is the only way to be. Its the "right" thing to do. Anyone that doesn't fit that is going to hell. They think they are doing us a service, but in reality, as we all know, they aren't. We can't change and won't. That's my two cents  |

| EC Addict Full Member   Gender: Male Orientation: Bisexual Out Status: All but family Location: Brisbane, Australia Age: 16 Posts: 1,244 Join Date: Jul 2011 | Re: "gay turning" These people who believe in "turning people gay" are the same backwards people who believe gay people are the scum of the earth, hence why turning a gay person "straight" is met well.

| EC Addict Full Member  Gender: Male Orientation: Gay Out Status: Almost there Location: West Midlands Age: 20 Posts: 513 Join Date: May 2011 | Re: "gay turning" I doubt there really is such a thing as converting one person to another sexuality, straight or otherwise. It seems like plain paranoia on ignorant people's part.

| let watchers become warriors Full Member  Gender: You tell me. Orientation: Hey good lookin'. *wink* Out Status: It's pretty obvious. Location: Alabama *cue banjos* Age: 26 Posts: 2,118 Join Date: Nov 2010 | Re: "gay turning" I think the basic argument is: "If we don't expose vulnerable young lambs of the faith to Ze Evil Homosexuals(tm), they'll never find out that homosexual sex is a) a lot like heterosexual sex, and b) that a lot more humans are bisexual than are willing to physically explore the concept." Conservatives freak out about the jumping rate of bisexuality in American high schools, but they don't realize it's not because gays are "turning" their youth...it's because the youth of America is more genderfluid and sexually open than ever before, and they don't let outdated standards of morality dictate their behavior. They actually remind me of young pre-Christian Romans, to be honest. [Studied imperial Roman history in college.] We modern-day Americans are not as different from the ancient Romans as we'd like to think. I think it's the reason more American youth are turning to paganism as well. Conservative Judeo-Christian ideals don't resonate with them anymore. Note: I'm not dissing Christians here (I actually attend church myself). Just making some observations.
