Re: g_b A Query
Since I'm new here and have a western perspective, I'll weigh in. I think often FEAR drives behavior. Often that FEAR is fear of the unknown. A person who begins experiencing feelings for someone of the same sex make feel that those feelings are not natural. They may fear rejection. What is the relationship become too close? What will my family think? What position does my religion have in my decision? Will this person I have feelings for still like me a year from now, or in 10 years. In groups, societies and cultures where gay/lesbian/bisexual and transgender PEOPLE lead healthy, happy lives, they experience a freedom to BE, just BE who they are without judgement and without fear that someone else will try and steal their happiness. And you can't leave sexual attraction out of the picture. People are often drawn to one another by what they see on the outside. Sexual attraction can be very strong. If the initial message is I just want to be friends and BOTH parties aren't hearing the same message, there's going to be confusion. In most western communities, people don't look for Friends online. They're looking for a sex partner. Friends can be found at coffeeshops, community centers, shopping areas where you find common interest. Sex partners can more easily be found online. For the record, I've been in a a relationship for 11 years. My partner and I do everything together, including what has been described here BUT when (occassionally) we want to bring a third into our relationship for sex, we look online. It's quick, its easy, its done. I also think this board serves a valuable purpose in letting peple identify others who are similar in a city so large and in a culture that typically does not accept or tolerate same sex relationship.

There was a cop on his horse waiting to cross the road when a little boy on his new shiny bike stopped beside him. ''Nice bike,'' the cop said, ''did Santa bring it to you?'' ''Yep,'' the little boy said, ''he sure did!'' The cop looked at the bike and while handing the boy a $20 ticket he said, ''Next year, tell Santa to put a license plate on the back of it.'' To go along with the cop, the little boy said, ''Nice horse you got there sir, did Santa bring it to you?'' ''Yes, He sure did,'' said the cop. The little boy looked up at the cop and said, ''Next year tell Santa to put the dick underneath the horse instead of on top. Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy!
