| |  Glad to be gay?
OK so I copied the title from an awful TV programme in the UK, but I was just wondering if there is anyone out there who truly is 'glad to be gay', who wouldn't change their sexuality if they could. Most of my friends, both male and female, are straight, and it is really hard to explain to them how lonely and isolating being gay actually is. That is unless you conform to the gay ghetto ideal, which spits you up if you're over 19 and don't fit the mold. I don't mean to be so negative, but yeah... how do people feel about it? |

| | | I wouldn't say that I'm "Glad" but I am content about it, and wouldn't change it.
The one thing I do hate is when people find out I'm gay and they automatically assume things like I'm nice, I love clothes, I love to dance, I'm girly, etc. |

| | | I don't have a problem with being gay per se but the society makes it a problem.
I'm not bothered by it but I live an incredibly lonely and isolated life wich I hate, and maybe I would chose to be straight if I could, who knows. |

I don't have a problem with my sexuality but sometimes it can be problematic as a lot of others in the world have problems with me. |

How do you get content about it? I honestly see it as almost a disability. And whilst I would agree it is mainly societies problem, how that impacts on your own self worth and ability to find other people is really damaging. |

| | | it's hard not to fall in the trap of self loathing when you have an alcoholic father that hates you because you are gay and a society that also hates you because you are gay.
It really helps to know gay people. My best friend is gay and we have like the best friendship and he is an actor so I know many gay people and it's just such an accepting crowd and it totally becomes your support group. If I didn't have that right now I probably would've killed myself. |

| | | I've not faced any sort of hatred or discrimination since Junior High school (and even that was more because I was a dork), so there are no worries there. And chances are, I'll never have to go the A to B to C route....get married, have children, etc....cause being gay pretty much eliminates the possibility of a "normal" lifestyle. Plus, apparently being gay is "cool" these days...
So yeah, why not? I'm glad...

| | | I don't know that it needs me to be "glad", because I think I'm gay whether I'm glad or not, but I'm certainly not unhappy.
I mean, I like guys, so being straight would just be silly.

| | | As long as I have good friends, I don't see why I'd need any of those things......I'm not really interested in having a "spouse" or "life partner" (ugh) at this point in my life, but that could change I suppose. As for children? No, some people just shouldn't have them. I'm one of those people. |

| | | I used to be like that. I was like "I don't care, I can be with myself, I don't need anyone" but that is so much bollocks.
I've been living in loneliness for quite sometime and it's asfixiating. I'm young but I do believe I know heart clutching loneliness.
You are young and maybe you don't know it but eventually you'll get old and in gay culture you expire at 40, so good luck with the impending loneliness if you haven't found anyone by then. |

| | | I'm not happy or unhappy I'm gay. I've never been straight, so I don't really have a viable point of comparison to gauge whether I'd be happier if my orientation were different.
I do hate people, so if being gay makes me more isolated than I would be if I were straight, then, yes, I'm glad. |

So yeah, why not? I'm glad... | I think it is only cool on TV or if in a faux-homo-emo fashion. In reality kids are just as homophobic as ever I swear.
I'm jealous of you. I know that sounds creepy, but I promise I mean it in a complimentary way.
