Yesterday as I surfed through various blogs I stumbled on a few where various people were expressing their thoughts about gays. It made me think that I may need to apologize to some.
No apology will come from me for being gay. I certainly understand and have heard the diversity of pros and cons. In my heart of hearts I dont want to upset anyone. I dont have a need to enter into discussion about what is viewed as right or wrong. There will always be disention on that issue. It is obvious that people will have opinions, evven things they believe to be absolute fact. That is their total right! No problem there as far as I am concerned.
My concern instead is about offending others. If I have been to blatant about my sexuality I apologize. Perhaps, for me, it is a part of who I am and I dont choose to hide or conceal that part of me. If others are uncomfortable about that fact I am very sorry. It is not my intent to be 'in your face'. My intent is just to be who I am.
Being gay is just one facet of who I am. Beyond my sexuality I am many things. Human and subject to failure. Sincere. Caring. Generous. Kind. Content. Comfortable. Proud. Selfish at times. Considerate at other times. These are all words that those who know me would use to describe me. My feelings, my emotions, are no different than others. My standards, my morals, my life style are very similiar to most other people. The only difference is that I sexually respond to members of the same sex. If that fact disturbs you, if you are uncomfortable about it I apologize. If you find my being disconcerting simply deal with it by blocking me. Make it easy for yourself....dont read my posts and block me from responding to yours.
Those of you who are not disturbed by my sexuality, or who see me as more than just gay, stay around. I value you. I appreciate you. I enjoy you.
