Question: Why do gays do these things in public?
I don’t know much about gay people.
I’m curious why do gays want to get married. That just lets everyone know that they are gay. And also makes people mad trying to defame the concept of marriage. Why would they want that? You’d think if they have that problem they would want it to be as secret as possible.
Also why do they go out in these gay pride parades? That just exposes how gay they are to everyone. Why would they be proud of that choice in life? Or if it is a birth defect, you don’t see other people with birth defects parading around about “down syndrome pride” or similar. I could understand not wanting people to be mean to them, same way a down syndrome person wouldn’t want people being mean to them, but why go out saying they are proud of it, and trying to make everyone mad?

They just want to be free to live their lives the way they want to, just like you and yours…they don’t do anything just to make people mad…your reaction is your problem, not theirs…so get over it.
Pride is an emotion. Whether irrational or not, one must express it.
“Also why do they go out in these gay pride parades?”
Why do straight people discriminate ! ?
“That just lets everyone know that they are gay.” – So is it embarrassing or bad to be gay? They want to get married for reasons the same as other straight people; they are in love with their significant other.
It’s not a choice, people are born gay. Parts of your question are really rude, you make it sound like being gay is a horrid disease that should be quarantined or something.
People like you make society what it is today, unaccepting and cold.
Just to piss you off!
I honestly hope you’re just trolling.
What is the concept of marriage exactly? You obviously dont take it as being in love so I’m assuming you mean to produce children? Does this mean you find it wrong for old people to marry? Infertile straight couples to marry? Or you know……..I think all those people filing for divorce everyday are the ones deframing the concept of marriage.
This is annoying whether it is trolling or not.
some gays are content to do what they do in private, like the rest of us.
others (usually males, for some reason) feel compelled to flaunt their personal habits in the most vulgar ways, in front of large numbers of people. this is a desensitization tactic. by parading almost naked, and performing pornographic displays in front of impressionable children, they can cultivate a new generation of homosexuals.
God loves sinners but hate sin
Obviously if you think being gay is a “problem” then of course your small mind will never understand.
Gay people =people
straight people=people
They still want love, they still want to have the government to recognize them as a legal couple. If I were gay I’d be very offended but probably also very humored at how you can’t see things in more than one way.
Would you say that a disabled person should hide away? Be ashamed and hide their ‘problem’ from society? I think not.
There is nothing embarrassing about being gay, there is no reason to hide it – and there is certainly no reason to feel as though you should be ashamed of it.
We protest and fight for the right to marry because we should have the right to validate our love with our partner, so we can share our lives with them.
We participate in gay pride parades to build a sense of community – to help people that have not come to terms with it yet feel like they have a place where they are accepted, where no one will judge them based on their sexual orientation.
The people that should hide in this world, are people like you – that view love (whether between two men or two women) as something abominable, or as something that should be hidden. You are the person with a problem, not us.
why do “straight” people get married? so they can show the world that they’re heterosexuals? lesbian mothers have tested that they raise children better together than a man and women do. why would you hide love? if LGBT have to, then what gives straights the right not to?
they do gay pride parades because they’re not afraid of who they are. unlikes some douches, they love themselves for who they are, and don’t care you think. what the hell happened to free speech? you were fucking born for a reason, and suddenly you can’t express yourself because of physical/mental/sexual attraction? they don’t have “down syndrome parades”, they have fundraisers. how many more LGBT people have to be born before everyone realizes that they’re supposed to be here. you’ve seen two different animals have babies, no? so what’s stopping two people?
i really do hope you find someone that accepts you for homophobe you are. and oh, have you noticed that “phobia” is at the end of homo? because people like you have a fear of them. you’re ridiculous.
i honestly hope that you find someone who can see past your un accepting ugliness.
dude, we don’t want ppl mad, that’s why we do it. (i never did it though) i’ll do it when i move to a country where they do it : )
we want to get married because we “have the right to be as miserable as everyone else” – just kidding
seriously now: id u love someone deep in ur heart, that’d be the reason u’d want to marry that person. it’s the same with us gays, we love someone and we want to get married, it’s not rocket science.
we don’t want it to be a secret, i guess u’d have to be gay to understand how painful it is to live in a lie like that. plus, it’s not a choice, and that got settled in the 70s by psychologists. b4 that gays would go to psychologists to get cured, but deep down they would still be gay… (what a rip-off!!
LOL)
the ppl who get mad, get mad because they want to. a friend of mine hated the idea that i am gay. but guess what? most didn’t. which means that being mad at gays is the real choice, being gay is sth that’s settled.
We all live in a predominantly heterosexual world and gay people have to live with seeing straight people holding hands, kissing and being straight every day so a gay pride parade is the perfect opportunity to give a little back to the world. Being gay is who we are and we cannot change that, therefore the people who hate gays are the ones who need to educate themselves and change their hate into acceptance. Many people people have said that your question is offensive but I admire that you are willing to ask and listen so that you might better understand. Good for you. I hope you feel your question is answered.
I don’t know much about straight people.
Why do gay people want to get married? For the same reason straight people want to.
What is wrong with people knowing your gay? There is nothing wrong with being gay. Its not a ‘problem’. The problem is people like you. And no I don’t want it to be a secret, because i am not ashamed, not should i be, of who I am.
We have gay pride parades because it shows people like YOU that even though we have to put up with discrimination and hate, that we are still proud of who we are. And people like you will never change that.
Gay people are usually gay. There nothing to be exposed to.
First of all, being gay is not a choice. You don’t wake up one day and say “I want to be gay. I want to be hated and discriminated against for the rest of my life. Just for being me.” It just doesn’t happen.
And did you seriously just compare homosexuality to a birth defect like down syndrome? Seriously, that has to be the craziest thing I have ever heard. Being gay is not a disease, it is just part of who we are.
We are not trying to make everyone mad, we are just being OUR SELF’S, and being proud of it.
