you can be gay and racist. it's possible. you can also be gay and have biases against other people. so basically you're saying that a cross section of the gay community will think and function like everyone else. FASCINATING.

I hate to paint the gay community with a broad brush stroke because not every gay person I know is this way, but from discussions, readings, and anecdotal stories I've heard from minorities within the gay community, it's really quite shocking. (I used to work at a health center, and this was our main demographic).

I dont think gay people are the sinful, sex-crazed, pedophiles that some would want you to believe, but there are some things in their community that people need to open their eyes to.
....then again...I guess you could say that for every community....
