And in the case when their own set of morals do not coincide with the guidelines, who judges the judges, who police the policemen? It is always convenient to think that people are of a "qualified caliber" simply because they were "handpicked" by another "qualified" team. But time and again in the history of Singapore, this has been proven to be false. If the shoes doesn't fit and/or the caps are too big, then don't wear them. They are law enforcers, and there's a fine line between enforcement and moderation.

Homophobic need to feel better than others, holier than others, so they will seek "others" who they can make their inferiors, their sinners. And PLU fit their need, when they see the attitudes of some of us. PLUs we have all the right to behave the way it is natural for us, as long as it is within the law.

If so, she should have read the four Gospels, and you could ask her if she had found there a single word by Jesus Christ that condemns homosexuals, gays. The fact is, the creator of Christianity never condemned gays. And you could have further asked her if, in her opinion, Jesus would have said to anybody "you will never be enough for him or her".

Since this happened 20 years ago, you should be able to know if the son is now married to a woman, or whether he is still gay. If he's married to a woman, your assumption that your ex-bf's mother was homophobic might be correct. If he is still gay, maybe she was referring to your character or your religious beliefs rather than anything else, and it will be out of topic of this thread.

InBangkok Posted October 20, 2020 Report Share Posted October 20, 2020 (edited) I have only skipped through most of the posts on this thread and so apologies in advance if I bring up old arguments. But it seems to me that the basic question asked by the OP has not really been addressed in any kind of detail. I don'r believe homophobia exists because we let them exist - for lots of reasons. Most analyses of population make-up suggest that about 5% of people are gay. Even if the number is as high as 10% those of us who are gay make up just a tiny proportion of the world. Unfortunately there are many others in the world who have closed minds as to the function of men and women and sexuality. Others just don't understand why a man would want to be attracted in any way, including sexually, to another man instead of to a woman. Within that 90-95% of the population is a pretty high number of adherents to various religions which for millennia have preached that to be gay is a sin. It is really hard to counter these views when the leaders of countries have such people as the hard core of their voters. To me, that is too simple though. I think the basic reason for homophobia is, as the word actually means, fear. In certain societies a fear that a family name will die out and no grandchildren. Fear that a child will not find happiness is his/her life. Others genuinely are more bigoted. They fear that gays will take over the world. They see homosexuality as a foot in the door of their own heterosexual castle. Many find the thought of sex between two men as disgusting, in the same way that i find sex with a woman pretty close to disgusting. Many look at male saunas for sex and cruising both on foot and via the apps to find casual sex and view gays as promiscuous and debauched. In effect, all these views are mere hypocrisy, a sign of totally closed minds. Many of these same people forget, or turn a blind eye to the fact, that many straight men indulge in a variety of sexual practices that others would regard as disgusting, that there are around the world plenty of brothels, cruising areas and apps where straight men can find women with ease for sex, sometimes outside marriage, and that there are probably millions of sex addicts. Only to a very limited extent do I believe that homophobics exist because we gays let them. The problem is that there are simly too few members of the gay community ready to go out into communities to try and persuade straight men nd women that they have nothing to fear from us. But then, as in Singapore, the government does not allow us to do that. It places restrictions on Pink Dot and does not permit a gay pride parade. It enhances fear. Compare that with Taiwan which for years has had an open public debate about gay relationships, a fantastic gay pride parade that last year drew 170,000 marchers in Taipei alone - I have attended 7 out of the last 9 and they were such fantastic fun days. Other Taiwan cities have their own pride parades. Ultimately the public debate resulted in legal gay marriage. Taipei's Pride Parade succeeds when Bangkok's tentative efforts died around 2003. It succeeds because it is run by private individuals and organisations. Bangkok's was sadly a pathetic attempt run by the commercial gay venues and so all the public witnessed were a few floats, dozens of bar boys and many dozen ladyboys. Thailand accepts a gay scene only as long as it is kept away from the public gaze. Unlike Taiwan, Bangkok's pride parade just reinforced negative public opinion. In that sense it unfortunately reinforced public homophobia. Edited October 20, 2020 by InBangkok Nightingale and wilfgene 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is really hard to counter these views when the leaders of countries have such people as the hard core of their voters. I don't believe either that homophobic exist because we let them be. @BlinkOnce may have started this thread to encourage us TO FIGHT against homophobia and not be so passive. And I agree with him. You listed very good reasons why we gays have been put down by society since immemorial times. But homophobia may be only one of the reasons. Antisemitism exists, and Jews have been persecuted for centuries, but today the state of Israel exists and few would dare to attack them. The empowerment of Jews has been very recent, since WWII. The empowerment of LGBTQs is growing, and it is also recent. Who would have imagined when we were children that gays would one day be able to marry in complete equality with straights? So far this happens only in a few nations, but it seems to be in the nature of things that same-sex marriage is going to spread. So why now? It could be because today the homophobia due to IGNORANCE is diminishing, normal people start to question the position of churches that gays are horrible offenders of God destined to be thrown into the bottom of hell, while a minimum of homophobia will always persist due to the MALEVOLENCE, or fear as you suggest, of a minority of people. Those notable individuals, like Pete Buttigieg, who have overcome the fear of being gay, are showing the world that gays we are perfectly normal and decent people. Some of us gay and lefthanded got it from two sides. But today there is no opposition left against lefties. Zero! Why did it drop? Because we lefties started using the left hand without reservations. Many very powerful people, like US presidents, are or have been lefties. Today we lefties are PROUD of it, ha ha. I had today a "leftie" experience when I went to vote for the next 4 years of my government and I had to sign on an electronic pad in an awkward position for a left hander to use, so the poll worker had to move it around so I could sign, and we made fun joking that maybe Trump wanted to avoid left-handed to vote since most of us don't support him. Some day people will simply joke with us when they have to say Mr. and Mr. instead of Ms. and Mr. Like it happened with left-handed, a 10% minority in the population, who just started to use the left hand, if closets don't exist anymore and LGBTQs start acting like it is in our nature from the start, we will be equally empowered.

Guest Mary Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 On 10/17/2020 at 1:51 PM, Guest Lawrence54 said: 20 years ago, my ex-bf introduced me to his parents at the birthday of his grandma. It was spectacular night that ruined by his mother. While I was looking for the washroom, his mother found me and had a little chat. What resonated to me is that she told me that I will never be enough for her sona and to their family. On 10/20/2020 at 4:54 AM, Guest Lawrence54 said: That would probably the reason. She wants him to take care of the family business and of course have any grandchild. On 10/20/2020 at 5:02 AM, Guest Lawrence54 said: She is a devoted Christian. She often host Bible studies with her friends. That is actaully a surprise to me as I thought she was a reasonable person.

They also owe that to me by letting him go. I realized and accepted that he is a coward that time.He gave up on us. It was not my job to make him feel like a man.
