How do you know that I came to this thread to talk about your sexual preference? Why were you so quick to answer the question at the beginning of the thread? You had the right to say you are a homosexual, but why didn't you say, "none of your business?"

When you and I apply for the same job, do you think it would be appropriate to say, "Oh, by the way, I'm a homosexual?"

If I were to put a rainbow sticker on my car it would have to say, "I'm not a homosexual, I just like rainbows."

Is this really an issue? Yes, you made it one.

I didn't say you did. You came on to talk about homosexuality.

"Why were you so quick to answer the question at the beginning of the thread? You had the right to say you are a homosexual, but why didn't you say, "none of your business?""

Why would I deny it? Heterosexuality is declared constantly. You just don't notice. It came up, and I answered. It wasn't obscene, so what is the problem?

"When you and I apply for the same job, do you think it would be appropriate to say, "Oh, by the way, I'm a homosexual?""

No. Not at all. It's inappropriate to bring it up in a job interview. It would also be inappropriate to say "By the way, I'm a heterosexual." If you don't agree, try saying it during one.

"If I were to put a rainbow sticker on my car it would have to say, "I'm not a homosexual, I just like rainbows."

Well.. if you really WANT a rainbow sticker on your car, go ahead. I have to warn you, it DOES attract vandalism.

me: Is this really an issue? you: Yes, you made it one.

I didn't, personally.

Do you ever want to run up to cars with the fish stickers or Darwin stickers and tell them to stop shoving their religion/science down your throat and stealing fish as an icon? Because I don't.
