The other side, the side that demands our acceptance, I believe has a different goal. If our social customs, norms and (hate the word) culture, are forced to accept the things demonstrably outside or in conflict with ours, we then have no social customs and culture.
Nothing to bind us.
Isn’t that right, Pope Francis?
“Imprinting”
“This used to be taught in basic psychology, prob not anymore because ...” it was WHACKED then and is even more WHACKED now! (pun intended)
Sorry Charlie, we are not chickens or Tuna for that matter.
The only human imprinting I know of is on my T-Shirts!
So, aids was spread like that. The rational way to stop aids would have been to stop that kind of activity. But nooooo, it was encouraged.
“...a normal thing for the gay male traveler...”
Homosexuality has been a real confusing effort. The travel guides you mentioned are a way of trying to create an appearance of normalcy to the lifestyle. Yet the gay parades, deviate gay days at recreational facilities like Disney properties, and displaying social media actions like movies and television disparities purposely separates and tries to polarize the difference and try to force one into acceptance rather than keeping it in the bedroom in private. It is all badly mishandled.

They’ve ruined a bunch of natural areas and State parks in Florida. Can’t bring your kids there because you’re apt to run across a guy giving another guy a hummer. disgusting
Maybe most parents don’t, but some do. Witness the proud parents of 9 year old drag queens. I have a co-worker whose marriage broke up because her husband didn’t approve of their son being homosexual.
It's a digression from the main point of the article … but Trayvon Martin's clothing was irrelevant. He was killed because he assaulted a man who happened to be armed, and who resorted to deadly force in self defense when St. Trayvon pinned him to the ground and tried to pound his head into jelly on the sidewalk.
Wait, he’s married but hooks up at rest stops?
My father was a shy man. He had health issues and on a trip to visit me, he stopped at a large truck stop on I90 to use the rest rooms.
He was propositioned by a person he called “some freak” and it upset him for the entire trip. He never traveled after that episode.
“From what I see being gay is about having complete control of the other person and the ability to be irresponsible and arrogant with no repercussions”
Exactly and that is why although they claim they just want to be “accepted” what they really want is to be applauded for their homosexuality.
I remember stopping at the Boston Commons in ‘74 as I was on a trip to visit a friend in Rhode Island...lost count of how many took notice of a (back then) decent looking, well-built stranger and tried to pick me up.
I’ve been hit on many times by gay men...not just hit on but offered sexual favors right of the bat.
Drunk guy on Key Marathon on New Years Eve night offered me a BJ.
Elementary school teacher in Hyannisport, Ma offered me a BJ after i believe he tried to drug me.
16 yr old kid on the walk back to hotel in South Beach Miami at 5am offered me all kinds of favors.
Naked guy jumps out of bush at me runs circles around me repeatedly screaming “Don’t Touch ME!!” on same walk back to hotel.
You should have heard all the moaning going on out in the darkness of that beach..
those were the extreme examples but there’s been a bunch more.
Must really suck having to live with such a mental disorder.....and Dangerous.
Those fruits were lucky that i’m for the most part a peaceful guy.
I’d think it preferable to claim one was just minding his own gay business when he was set upon by a group of violent homophobes, than to admit the real circumstances of the assault
I’ve been to rest stops where the damn pay phone rings when you walk by it. It’s some homo in a froth watching from his car and calling the pay phone number. I presume a gay man on the prowl picks it up and gets directions to the hook up vehicle. I was with a buddy who didn’t get it, he was like “who the hell is calling a rest stop pay phone, should I pick it up?” I told him he would be mighty disappointed in the conversation.

Stereotypes do not hang around unless they have an element of truth to them.
If you are a guy, try just lingering in your vehicle for a while. They’ll soon come out of the woodwork.
I've learned the hard way not to do this in rest areas! Instead, I typically park at a Dunkin' Donuts and go inside to check email there. Rest areas are creepy places. Especially after dark.
Hate to say this but from my observations many straight men would be acting like this if they could. They can’t because women don’t act like this.
If Mary and Lisa decided to go down to the local park and start blowing any guy that showed up the park would be filled with straight guys.
Men’s sexual urges are very destructive if not restrained. Women restrain straight men’s urges. Gay men are the results when these urges aren’t restrain.
Public sex, even semi-public sex, should remain illegal for gays and straights. A person’s right to have sex does not trump the right of the rest of society not to see that sex.
As far as the health factor I would agree with you. Even though gay men are much more likely to get diseases and such they are a miniscule portion of the population. If we are going to say government can interfere with the activities of adults because of how much those activities can drain the health system then we empower government to tell us what we can eat and how much we should exercise. Because obesity related health problems are a much bigger drain on the health system then gay men.
In the 1980s “gay related immune deficiency” (GRID) was renamed AIDS in order to disguise the genus and largest impacted group contracting the disease.
