Whats the point of g*y people "outting" themselves?

Question

Whats the point in letting people know your attracted to people of the same s*x? Why bombard society about your sexual history? You cant even have a conversation with a "g*y" person without some sexual reference coming up. Who would want to live in such a perverted society like that.

Answer 1

i only tell people that I'm attracted to that I'm g*y in case they want to date me. and i don't give my sexual history to anyone. when having a conversation i don't bring up s*x unless its something the other person is talking about.

you must live in fairy flower land if those have been your g*y encounters.

Answer 2

When people know you're g*y they know whether or not you're available. The opposite s*x won't be able to make a pass at them, but same s*x might.

I doubt you've talked to many g*y people, s*x isn't the only thing on their agenda, and there's nothing perverted about attraction.

Answer 3

attention is what they are after.  I do not run around saying "Oh I am so straight"

Answer 4

Alot of g*y people are raised by close minded families who do not or would not support their lifestyles.

It's difficult not to 'out' themselves to their families and even close friends if they want to live a more simple life.

It's not like they can just go right out and say, "hey this is my boyfriend" and the guy's family won't blink an eye.

They often feel like they need to explain right.

I've had alot of conversations with homosexuals (my sister, her girlfriend, some of their friends, some of my friends...), and honestly, references to their sexuality are usually never brought up.

They're normal human beings to and they have normal conversations haha (what they're going to have for dinner, what they're doing on the weekend...).

Maybe age is a factor as well?

How old are the 'g*y' people you're socializing with?

Homosexuals, Heterosexuals, whatever.. there are alot of people who like to make sexual references haha.

Answer 5

I'm going to have to agree you. It gets annoying, it's like they want attention and if you say something about g*y people they bring the "sexist" thing up. I think they just want to be proud of who they are. Yet, god isn't proud because he is against g**s.

Answer 6

I think the reason for anyone to 'out' anything personal is because they have some kind of conscious, or either they feel the need to be accepted or just plain want attention. Honestly, it's none of our dag on business what they do in their private life.

I understand you mister.

Answer 7

I think because America is like the "bible belt" (or at least at one time it was) and being g*y was so "taboo" and spoken against for so long that people felt they had to fight these feelings.  I mean if you go way back to the 1900s (and probably further) you hear about stories where people put away or beat their children because they acted "funny".  Thus the reason g**s had to go into the closet in the first place.

Now that America has because a pool of "anything goes and it's pretty much accepted".....well g**s and other "forbidden" things are now being accepted and they look at it as a freedom to be free in who they think they are.

But for those who just make it a sexual thing and like you said, bring up s*x....well that's just them.  I hear g*y people say that being g*y is not about s*x, it's about preference of who they are attracted to.  You just happen to have met g*y people who talk dirty.  No different than a straight person who talks about s*x organs and s*x all the time.

By the way ---- I am not g*y.  I'm only making an observation and stating my opinion on what I've experienced around g*y people.

Answer 8

it's possible to have a conversation with a straight person where innuendos spring up. it depends on the person you're talking to. i don't believe in defining people by their sexuality, but you can't claim that only homosexuals have dirty minds.

Answer 9

You miss the point

Rarely if ever have I had a conversation with a g*y person where s*x became a focal part of the conversation.   I suspect few g*y people want to discuss their preferences any more than you do.

Why do people like you wish to deny them work benefits, inheritance rights..........etc?

How about just letting them live with the same human rights that you and I have and let it go at that.

Answer 10

In that case I understand. Outing is just keeping homophobia alive

Answer 11
