[Updated with highlights for those of you who make a habit out of reacting to energy and momentum instead of actually reading my opinion]
Hey, I am a raging skirt-chasing heterosexual but is that really any of your business? No, it isn’t. I stay in my little closet where I belong. My sexuality has nothing the way I drive, so I don’t need some sticker on my bumper telling people “hey, look at me. I like sex!”. It has nothing to do with my job, so my employer never needs to know if I like picking up chicks in the Whataburger drive through.
It seems everyone is happy in their little closets but the gays. We all know full well that there are aspects of our private lives that are best left that way – private. All us heterosexuals know that our grandmother probably doesn’t want to know if we have different sexual partners every week. We keep that part of our lives to ourselves.
Three things. I do not mean to imply that all gays are just sleeping around. I get the feeling that since gay people started spreading AIDS around, they have slowed down a little. And I applaud them for that. Second thing. Don’t give me this blasted crap about “identity” and your right to “express yourself” as a gay person. Garbage. You make it seem like a club or something. Express your gayness out of my line of sight and I will do the same with my sexual issues. Third. Oh, please, not again with the “I was born this way” jazz. People love science. They love to give me the science when it proves their point. And when it doesn’t, they make it up. You can’t go around just saying that it’s all genetic. Show me the damned gene, then. No, it just makes you feel better to say it that way. Heck, why don’t you go “feel better” in the closet and take everything rainbow colored with you.
If you are still reading, one more thing.
Don’t get caught in the trap that just because someone does not want to have “gay” shoved in his face at every turn, he has a phobia of them. It is not necessarily the case. I think the whole thing is disgusting. That’s my opinion. But I think lots of things are disgusting. Being disgusted and being phobic are different.
