Bet you didn't see THIS coming....

[BernieLaraemie]

Personally my fave elton songs are "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" and "We All Fall In Love Sometimes/Curtains"

But the GYBR album has some good stuff too.   Fave off that is "I've Seen that Movie, Too."

Farlander : liberation is a part of it, I suppose. I suppose it's also just a matter of thinking you all have a right to know. Not in a bragging sense. Just when you say you're one thing when you're really another, it helps clear the air to make a clear cut announcement, rather than sort of only saying it when people ask.

[Nacho]

My opinion about you haven't changed an atom for revealing that you're gay (My opinion about you is still bad! joking... ), so I think happens with many of AGSers, so, I assume that's an internal matter most that an "outer" matter.

[Peter Thomas]

haha. yes, largely internal. Just an "outer" expression of it

And yes, your smile IS sexy, so I'm going to have to kill that girl who turns up next to you in all your photos!

[Nacho]

Please no...  :'(

[Peter Thomas]

Ah, we all decided she looked like that girl from Futurama anyway, with one eye. No big loss. I've got two, I promise.

I appreciate honesty and if the announcment is a bit of cleansing or an act of bravery than many congrats.  However, this being one of the many twisted tendrils of the internet, I don't really make assumptions about gender, sexual preference or take much as a given (even if it's previously been claimed).  I personally, don't even have evidence that CJ is male.  I secretly believe he's a hermaphrodite (though I don't expect anybody to believe that I believe that). 

[Peter Thomas]

Twisted tendril? TWISTED TENDIRL?




Fair enough...

[SSH]

Speaking as another christian, please let me apologise in advance for all the other christians you encounter who may treat you as some kind of demon. If where you happen to stick your todger is a sin, it isn't as great a sin as the venomous bile and hate that consumes some anti-gay christians.

[Peter Thomas]

Thank you, SSH. That actually means an awful lot to me.

It's certainly not a 'decision' I just made while sipping lemonade (however it does sound mightily appealing). And I'm certainly not abandoning my christian faith altogether, either. I'm still tossing things up very carefully in my mind, however the fact you're not shoving bible verses down my throat is a great encouragement

[Las Naranjas]

I still think it's funny that the Uniting chruch [not to be confused with the Moonies] in Australia declared recently that the people who had interpreted the bible as saying the crimes of sodom and gomorrah etc. were bad because they were promiscuous, rather than in a dedicated, monogamous realationship, like modern gays, and thus it was alright to be gay if you followed the same principals as straights....had interpreted the bible validly.

However, those who had interpreted the bible as saying that all gays were going to hell to burn forever...had interpreted the bible validly.

[Haddas]

It's not like you can do anything about being gay anyway. It's a gene you get or don't get from your mother. How you're raised has very little to do with it

[DGMacphee]

Our only hope now is for DG to rescue us with one of his witty replies.

You had me at, "Did you get the hint?"

[Phemar]

You ... you can join the FAB 5!

[KANDYMAN-IAC]

mmmmm... there is alot of controversy on the subject about the things that create our sexuality...

while some can claim that some instinctual aspects are inborn.... some forms of homosexuality can be spawned out of abuse. Which is very sad.

Not all cases... but its never purely a case of simple nature and simple nurture... some bastards have to step in and traumatise people and radically change their growth and nature as human beings.

______________________________________

Congrats on coming out... very proud of you... A mate of mine came out about six months ago, in the end I was one of the last to be told, I actually just came out and asked him at one point when he was gonna tell me , after that it was all sorted...

OPEN is good...

My parents on the other hand are shits... growing up they were of the impression that I would turn out to be gay. Aparently they had conversations with my grand parents about it that were very sienfeld-esque... to the akin of "NOT THAT THERE IS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT".

And then in the end I didn't turn out to be gay I just came home with a woman 10 years my senior... I only found out recently that it was almost like my family was placing bets on when I would come out.... jerks.

(i get the impression that frued would have a fucking field day with me :S )

[Squinky]

I saw it coming, you big gay bastard....


(I still am suspicious of a prank here, but hey man, it's cool either way...)

[Evil]

As a proud Thespian, I go to many drama festivals and programs with my friends and schoolmates. And every time they try to set me up with a boy, sometimes more then one. They all refuse to believe that I prefer the female gender, no matter how many girls I date, how many females I hit on, or how many boys I kiss without getting an erection.

I'm glad to hear that you're open about it. *Does the Time Warp*

[Blackthorne]

Thesbian= Lesbian with lisp?!?!?!?

Bt

[LGM]

* [lgm] taps his Gaydar machine.

Damnit, I thouht this thing worked..

Congratulations, you're gay!

[BernieLaraemie]

Next ATC I say all the gays get together and have their own team   That'd be great.

I know of lot of guys where you talk to them and a while later they're like, "Oh, this is my girlfriend. . . " and you're like, WHAT?!?!?!  But anyway, that's just me.

. . .still waiting for Bernie Taupin to come out. . .
