Lol @ the unnecessary bashing of gay pride events. Like goodbye, if they're not for you then that's fine but please don't try to act like y'all are better than anyone. The same man wearing that leather underwear in the street dancing with his friends has more than likely been oppressed and denied the rights to be himself. He is simply expressing himself This isn't about fighting for gay rights, it's about celebrating how far we've come, please.

It's so twisted that so many homosexuals genuinely believe that flamboyant homosexuals are hurting the cause. Society wouldn't progress or change if people didn't challenge the boundaries and limits. It's the flamboyant gays who aren't afraid to express themselves who are the heroes of the gay community. Like, the "straight-acting" approach helps who, exactly? The people that oppressed LGBTQ all this time? Get out of here with that.

I didn't choose to be gay, as you didn't choose to be a prick as you are

The difference is that you can change your ignorance with education, I can't get rid of my sexual orientation.

Love yourself

Your religious views violate my humanity,so I actually do not agree with it.Yours is a real life choice that I don't partake in and would rather others not,but i can only live my own life.

I don't hate religion,but I'm scared of fanatics.

I think it's cute that y'all are letting Cherry troll you!

You know what I'd love for religious people just for one day to feel how they make gay people feel, They hate on a sexuality which is real because of some book about a god that no one has proof about.. id love for the tables to turn and everyone turned on religion how would they feel, I just think people who are religious should keep it to themselves ... PRAISE GOD all you want but don't force it on to me

How exactly is being gay a "life choice"? You dont choose your sexuality, you are born with it, gay people are born gay! You sound really ignorant!

Please bear in mind that most religious people didn't choose to believe but were indoctrinated by their parents and it was forced on them from the moment they were born, just like most values and ideas people have...

Crawling around like a dog while getting dragged by your collar down the street is not expressing yourself

Cherry may be the most prolific troll yet. How many people have they hooked in this one thread alone. The second that poster pointed out the "Turn that cherry out" sig, it should have been obvious what he/she was doing.

Stop taking the bait.

Have you actually ever been to pride?

Okie dokie

I like Beyoncé and one of her songs used a word that's been my username for years in it. What's the problem? I'm not trolling.

the fact you seem to find the possibility of trolling relevant when this is a very real discussion and issue, even if this particular member is trolling.... Plenty of people honestly feel like that and it's good to talk about it, regardless of whether Cherry is a troll

Everybody ganging up on Cherry like this...

I could swear the credo for ATRL was #PromoteOnlineHappiness or everyone is entitled to their beliefs and opinions. Everyone's just attacking him and the others because you say it's ignorance. What's ignorance is believing there is only one way of thinking and any other of thinking is immediately wrong.

I don't agree with everything he and the others have said, but I'm not going to call them wrong because I'm never always right. I'll just say it's their way of thinking, but I hope they keep an open mind later on in life. Something that I'm starting to notice is becoming slowly absent here...

Please bear in my that all gay people didn't chose to get bullied for something they can't help because it's looked down as being wrong and "sinful"

I don't agree with it either, but well what can I do? I can't change that.
