I have a lot of gay, bisexual, and transgender people in my life. Mostly, because I take them as they are. I even extremely briefly dated a guy who later got the chop. Who cares?
Why do we care what happens in the bedroom? You love who you love. Love is not a bad thing. Kind of the opposite in fact. I wish there was more of it.
The main opponents of gayness tend to be religious. There are an extraordinary amount of rules and regs lined out in the bible. But where it mentions homosexuality is in the Old Testament. When Jesus came he made a new covenant with the church. The only commandment we have to follow is his. Love thy neighbor as thyself. Gaybashing isn't loving. He also told us not to judge. He who is without sin should cast the first stone.
Jesus hung out with the worst of the worst and he never judged them. He took them as they were and tried to show them through example and story how to live.
If Jesus is your excuse for hate, then you missed the whole point.
I love my gays. The have courage to be themselves and risk judgement. They stand up for what they believe in. And they love musicals like me :)
