stealing from other thread: any gay couples in your school?

<p>today, i found two girls sitting very closely and staring at each other with their faces close to each other's without saying anything for a long time. i thought they were going to kiss. one was tomboy, and another was 1/2 girly, 1/2 tomboyish. i first thought they were an inseparable friends, but i found out that they were dating. it really hit me cuz they r my friends. i am not biased against them or homosexuality, but i felt a little weird seeing or talking to them acknowledging that they r the lesbian couple.</p>

<p>A lesbian I know claims to have had a few girlfriends who don't go to our school. A gay friend of mine also claims to have had a boyfriend a couple years ago.</p>

<p>Umm that's about it.</p>

<p>Quite a few... I have a few friends in college who are either gay or transgendered.</p>

<p>No offense, but this is really stupid thread. So what if there are gay couples in your school? Is it necessary to post about them?</p>

<p>there are a few homosexual males at my school...but i dont know of any lesbians</p>

<p>Several lesbian couples who enjoy heavily making out in the gym locker room - while everyone else is changing. Kind of awkward. They like accusing the rest of us of being homophobic, which, needless to say, isn't the case in the least - I'd tell any straight couple to f**k in their own room, too.</p>

<p>I know a lesbian couple; one of the girls is a friend/acquaintance. They're both juniors, and they've been together for about a year now. They seem happy enough with each other.</p>

<p>I go to an arts school.
Sometimes I think there are more gay couples than straight. :)</p>

<p>My school is pretty homophobic...However, there is one couple that I know of: a lesbian and a girl who claims to be bi...There have been two other "out" lesbians that I know of, including one that basically tries to live as a boy (including wearing a suit for her senior picture last year and having a crew cut)...There's another lesbian who was on the wrestling team last year...Those two were the obvious ones, though, of course, there are undoubtedly many more. In regards to gay males, I do not believe any are openly gay, although you can definitely tell. One even regards himself as a girl with his friends from cheerleading, and he claims to think of himself as a woman, yet he's not out...There was one boy who was definitely last year, but he had a girlfriend, and her brother, who is in my grade, even asked us what we thought, saying his parents just dismissed it as him being "very in touch with his feminine side"...In regards to couples, I do not believe there have been any...It's completely different, however, at such things as Key Club events...At the NJ Fall Rally, one girl from my school had an incident that was rather embarrassing...There were two boys who were obviously very much in love with each other, and the girl from my school thought it was sweet, but she was bouncing a small basketball that someone had won and given to her, and she became distracted, losing control of the ball, still staring at the two boys...If anyone noticed, they probably thought she was gawking at the two boys...Anyway, it was an interesting experience...But back to the topic, my school doesn't really have any gay male couples, although I know there are/have been female lesbian couples...</p>

<p>well...let's just say that people call our school "Rainbow High" for a reason <em>sigh</em>...for homosexuality to be such a taboo topic in the black community...we sure do have ALOT of gay people in our school (our school is about 98% black)...haven't witnessed any gay male couples in our school but tons of lesbian couples...I'd thought I'd seen it all when these two girls were kissing during lunch...we have alot of gay dudes that don't even "act or look gay"...but they are lol...and we have some flaming gays also...same thing for the girls...we have the butch lesbians and the girly ones...</p>

<p>i go to a private catholic all girls school... if there are any lesbians, they don't say anything about it ever because a majority of the school is pretty homophobic</p>

<p>^ wow our school is totally different..
There's no gay/lesbian couples that I know of.. and if there was one, it would've spread throughout the school in 1 day.. I have never met gays or lesbians in my life also.</p>

<p>"One even regards himself as a girl with his friends from cheerleading, and he claims to think of himself as a woman, yet he's not out"</p>

<p>From what I've read and seen, most biological males who consider themselves to be women consider themselves to be gay women. If they remain biologically male, their sexual partners are likely to be female. If they use hormones/surgery to become female, their sexual partners are still likely to be female.</p>

<p>thats a really interesting fact northstar mom.</p>

<p>as for my school, there are just way too many instances to note. it doesn't bother me though.</p>

<p>In my school, no. But I think gay people are cool.</p>

<p>I think a gay person being cool is a hit or miss... just like a heterosexual person being cool is a hit or miss. When I meet someone, sexuality (among other things) is something I disregard when forming an opinion on that person. If you have a guideline, then other guidelines will start to form, and eventually you're alone, and who really wants that? I think if we just let go of our guidelines (at least initially, so we can learn the true character of the person) then we won't need threads like this. Basically OP there's no reason for you to feel weird about other people's decisions. I know you're not discriminating against them (like I was talking about in my ramble), but these people are still the same people they were before you found out they were together, right? If so, then just let it out of your mind, because, honestly, it's no big deal.</p>

<p>i live in boston</p>

<p>massachusetts is the only state where gay marriage is legal</p>

<p>there are so many gay and lesbian people</p>

<p>holy moley</p>

<p>hahaha</p>

<p>all the gay ppl i have met are very nice and proud to be gay</p>

<p>"'One even regards himself as a girl with his friends from cheerleading, and he claims to think of himself as a woman, yet he's not out'</p>

<p>From what I've read and seen, most biological males who consider themselves to be women consider themselves to be gay women.

<p>I don't think he's a transsexual, though. He doesn't blatantly refer to himself as a woman. It's little things, like him saying (and this is a quote from an instant messenger conversation he apparently once had):
"I'm signing out girls: Christine, Erica, Katie, Angela, and me!"
He also had a quote somewhere about some woman in a blue dress. That's really about it, though.</p>

<p>yeah.. i actually think the gay couple thing is kinda cool. I like that ppl arent afraid to admit what they like. Although 2 guys kissing does make me sick</p>
