National Coming Out Day

[tikkalover]

MINOT, N.D. - It's national coming out day and some members of the gay straight alliance club at MSU are spreading the word.



The club is celebrating the LGBTQ community in the area and around the world.
The day is meant for some people to take a leap of faith and be accepted for who they are.
One of the members of the group says she's happy she has the support of the community.
"This year especially has been really nice. We've been able to get a lot of awareness out. For me personally, I just came out last year so it's been nice to have a really good support system on campus. There's not a lot of discrimination that I face personally," said GSA member, Kacey Donamaria.
The GSA booth will be in the student center for the rest of the week. ​

Anyone on here that's in the closet, today is your day to open that door.

No matter how attractive; chicks going at it is also wrong especially to their Dad's. I believe divorce and pornography have done more damage to this Country than dope. The Soviets; now the "liberals" are proving Khrushchev correct: "Not one shot"

If you are a dude, liking dudes seems to be the easy way out.

Try being forced by nature to be fiercely attracted to something you will never understand.

My point, gentlemen, was women should be giving more hints for us.

Did chick on chick originate from multiple wives? Freaking mind oatmeal: Don't plug your pisshole with feces.

Is there a new deviance I am out of the loop on?

I am not a homophobe, it just goes against my religion, my upbringing, and beliefs.

Any of you Queers out there touch me or my stuff, and I will kill you... psycho (stripes)
Just so none of you take this as a threat

And for the record, just as anyone else has a right to their belief in it, I have a right to my belief against it. This does not make me a homophobe, nor do I have an issue with anyone who is for it, or involved in it.

Miley Cyrus is coming in like a Wrecking Ball in Variety's Power of Women L.A. issue. And the cover star is hitting on the restrictive way our culture treats gender and sexuality.
For Cyrus, who never felt particularly feminine or masculine and never felt the "bisexual" label came close to capturing her sexuality, navigating her identity was difficult. And it wasn't until the Crisis in Six Scenes actress tapped into the LGBT community in Los Angeles that she was able to tap into her truth.
"I went to the LGBTQ center here in L.A., and I started hearing these stories," says Cyrus, who has since become a leading activist in the LGBT movement through her Happy Hippie Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to providing resources to LGBT youth, homeless citizens and other vulnerable communities.
"I saw one human in particular who didn’t identify as male or female," she continued. "Looking at them, they were both: beautiful and sexy and tough but vulnerable and feminine but masculine. And I related to that person more than I related to anyone in my life. Even though I may seem very different, people may not see me as neutral as I feel. But I feel very neutral. I think that was the first gender-neutral person I’d ever met. Once I understood my gender more, which was unassigned, then I understood my sexuality more. I was like, 'Oh — that’s why I don’t feel straight and I don’t feel gay. It’s because I’m not.'"
Even still, Cyrus says coming out as pansexual to her religious Southern family was a fraught experience. But "the universe has always given me the power to know I’ll be OK," she says. "Even at that time, when my parents didn’t understand, I just felt that one day they are going to understand."
And they did — during a heart-rending moment on The Voice.
"On The Voice, this young girl started crying when she left, because I’m the reason she came out," Cyrus explained. "My mom started crying. She was like, 'I’m so sorry about the way I was when you were that age and coming out.' She never understood me until she saw that girl who couldn’t be herself. It was very cool."

Never understood the idea of coming out. What is the purpose? Did anyone have a big party the first morning they woke up with a big wet spot in their underwear? Did you feel the need to announce to the world that you had reached puberty? Just a hint but the vast majority of your friends already knew you were gay before you felt the need to make a big announcement.

From the other side, gay people don't bother me at all. Have never had a gay man do anything remotely inappropriate to me. For those of you who think you would never associate with a gay person I'm willing to bet you have already associated with several and never knew they were gay. As an educator I have dealt with well over a thousand students so yes, some of them were gay. Some of them you suspected long before you knew. Some of them not until later in life. Did that change my opinion of them from what I knew of them as students? Not one time. They didn't change at all, the difference is always in how we as humans decide to treat others.

The next issue is what are you going to do if one of your children tell you they are gay? Dismiss them from your life? If you love your children you love them as they are. Some will say it's a choice gay people make. Possibly but for what reason? Why would anyone want to go through all that turmoil if they had a choice? The choice would be far easier to live in a heterosexual relationship.

Gay people don't bother me. LGBT groups don't bother me, it's a way for gay people to learn more about themselves. Big celebrations such as "Coming Out Day" make me wonder about the need and purpose. Oh hell, maybe I don't understand it but for them it might be about as exciting as it will be for me the next time I draw a "deer tag."

In all honestly LGBT doesn’t really bother me…there are so many f’d up things in the world today…if you believe you are LGBT then I guess whatever, you do your thing I’ll do mine.
What pisses me off the most is especially around hear most “LGBT” people are really not truly “LGBT” they are just rejects of society that feel the need to cling to a group only because for the most part the LGBT sector is more excepting … many of these individuals are social outcasts or attention staved, I need to make an entrance it’s all about me thing…you are not truly LGBT you just crave the acceptance and attention…most true LGBT live work and interact around us and we don’t even know it because they are normal and want to live normal lives they just have a different sexual preference…it’s the stand out “flaming” or “outcast” individual that walks in and throws it in your face…those are who I have a probable with.
