What's the first thing that comes to mind?
What's your first reaction when you see two guys kissing? What if it's two girls?

It doesn't bother me. You see scenes like that on TV a lot these days so it has become commonplace. Mind you, not being attracted to other girls, I think them kissing looks very boring. It probably isn't but what do I know - I'm straight. Shrugs.
Mushy kissing between teenagers (boy/girl) on the train on the way to work however used to make me feel very queasy. First thing in the morning...ugh....not a scene I ever wanted to be a witness to. LOL
I've worked for a boss who maintained a fiction he was straight (no one believed him BTW but nothing was said), and my last boss (female) has been in a committed relationship with her partner for some time. They are just people. A family friend spent all his life hiding he was gay from friends and workmates. I thought it was very sad that he felt he had to.
Did you see the news that the Pope thinks civil marriage ceremonies between gay people is fine. OK, that is not endorsing marriage in a Catholic church, but crikey it's a start. I just about cheered, with an aside thought that those fusty old Cardinals must be spitting chips. Things change and even my mother who for along time 'disapproved' of gay people, thought the Pope had done the right thing in speaking out.

It's hard for me to answer this as I personally don't know any homosexuals or know of any. None of my friends are homosexuals or lesbians. I have known a couple in the past as I used to see a couple of them in the local hotel where I'd have a drink after work. I used to say hello to one when I passed him at the bar when ordering a beer.
Doesn't bother me who a person is but I suppose when put on the spot with a question like this, I'd rather a guy and a girl kissing than 2 guys or 2 girls. That's all I can say.
I have heard though that some homosexual men do well on trivia night when asked questions about musicals.

They throw great parties.

I have had, and still have quite a few homosexual friends. I don't think of them as homosexuals, I think of them as my friends and the individuals they are. Perhaps you are curious Bob, and are still exploring your sexual identity? That's ok though, some people take a little longer than others.

Whatever floats your boat. If its not affecting me I couldn't care what some-one does.
I haven't got much time for the "look at me " rainbow flag wearing, deliberately lisping, equal rights, attention seekers, but here's a tip. If you are getting discriminated against, maybe its just because you are a self centred, over exaggerated, fuss making nong and it really has nothing to do with your sexual preferences.
Most of the gays I know..............., its just who they are. They don't have to flaunt it or try and convert straight people to their orientation. They just get on with living a perfectly normal life without making a big fuss about their same sex partners or life decisions. They dont get discriminated against, because they are just normal people, same as everyone else.
