After spending a lot of my day-off web surfing, and running across more tripe than I care to remember, this venting of my spleen came forth:

"On Gay Bashing (A Rant)...."
First thing off, I'll say this for all the "people" out there who seem to be concerned with what sex of person I choose to sleep with (for whatever reasons they have, I cannot even imagine): I am a heterosexual female. There now, feel better??...Well, you probably won't in a minute.
I am at a loss as to why the issue of gay sex seems to bother so many heterosexual people. Why would ANYONE'S sex life (between two consenting adults) be a concern to anyone else? Gay sex consists of two people of the same gender(who may or may not be in love with one another) getting together and pleasing one another sexually. Please correct me on that if I am wrong (not that I care what you think).
So, why does that matter to anyone? I know I could care less who sleeps with whom, as long as they are not attempting to abuse a child. It is NONE OF MY BUSINESS WHO SLEEPS WITH WHOM, and it's none of your business either, believe it or not. For the sake of Judeo/Christian argument, even God allows people to make their own choices and decisions in life, even if he doesn't particularly agree with them.
The thing I have noticed about most Gay bashing types is this: they are usually the ones that have their own serious life issues to deal with and bashing someone else seems to give them some strange comfort...a feeling of being "better" than someone else. Hate to tell you buddy, but WRONG, you're certainly no higher up on the evolutionary ladder than your ancestors were eons ago, and you're definitely no better than anyone else.
I am fortunate enough to have a lot of people in my life that I care for....many friends and relatives, and yes, several of them are gay. In my own personal experience, the gay people in my life that I'm the closest to are the people that actually care the most about me, my kids, and my husband (WHAT? I have a husband?? Imagine that! LOL! And he doesn't seem to mind a bit that I am not homophobic!). The fact that they are gay usually doesn't even cross my mind, or come into play in our day-to-day lives. Do you know why? Because it's THEIR BUSINESS! And I don't pry into their business! I use that rule in all my relationships and have found that people appreciate that trait in me the most. They know I love them. Their lifestyle is of no concern to me.
People will live the way they want to live, regardless of what you or anyone else says to them, and that's as it should be. That's why, when you become an adult, you don't NEED parents anymore. They have done their job...it's your turn now to take over the reigns and make your own path in life. Sure, you still love your parents, but in the natural sense, they should be more like friends than parents once you are an adult. Their "job" in raising you SHOULD BE OVER.
So why should other people try to "butt-in" to your private life if your own parents are not even at liberty to do this any longer? The answer to that is, they shouldn't. People should accept or reject one another based on their merit, not based on what they look like or whom they sleep with.
I could rattle on about this for a spell. Mind you, I have seen supposedly well-meaning meddlers create more chaos and havoc in other people's lives than I care to even think about. Meddling of any kind is wrong, no matter how much you think that by caring about someone, it gives you the right to butt into their business....it does not.
Please feel free to reply to this rant. You do not, by any means, have to agree with my opinion. That's the beauty of it...you can take it or leave it. One note though: if you DO choose to disagree with this rant, at least be able to spell what you mean correctly...if you cannot spell it, don't bother. If you are just an idiot in general, don't bother either. I enjoy a bit of mental fencing and stimulation...Please don't bore me.
