Ok, here’s the deal. First of all let’s take a look at the word “Gay.” The actual word means happy, feeling good, etc…One can still hear songs of the 40′s using this word, and it simply means happy. Our culture has taken the word “gay” and have given it a new definition. The new definition of gay, as it pertains to men means men who sleep with men, and as it pertains to women, women who sleep with women. The problem with the term gay is it takes on many interpretations. Some see it as only men who are feminine, some see it as a man who has sex with another man, etc…or as it pertains to women, women who sleep with with women…So consequently, we now have men who don’t consider themselves “gay” because they feel they are masculine, and they conduct themselves as men. Society has made a very simple principle become quite unclear. The definition of men who sleep with men,and women who sleep with women, is simply HOMOSEXUAL. They are HOMOSEXUAL. They have sex with the SAME SEX. PERIOD!! We can add all the “pop culture” terms we want, at the end of the day men who play basketball, football, attorney’s dancers, etc can be a homosexual. The same thing with women, news casters, hair dressers, athletes, doctors, you get my drift…they come in all professions, and all have various lifestyles…but if they are having same sex relationships, they are and should always be classified as homosexual. The Dj, Cee is a homosexual… He has sex with men…Robin Roberts is a homosexual, she has sex with a woman…In conclusion I taught my son a long time a ago not to use the word “gay” because it’s original intended definition does not define homosexuality…it’s definition is obscure and birthed out of new culture. These terms come and they go…

This is not rocket science or the question of the century. A man raped by another may be still a man but a man who voluntarily sleeps with another man is demonstrably homosexual. Gay was a euphemism for faggot or dyke in the day. And, I still respect its intention. Being homosexual is O.K. and should be and, perhaps, will be considered as such by all. Let us pray. The problem with homosexuality is that the act precludes reproduction. However, it is a very narrow, intolerant or just unprogressively simplistic notion to think that all have a mission and priority to physically procreate in this life time. Live, read up and embrace the planned diversity of this planet. This is both warning and wisdom given by a 66 year old black man born in NYC, living in ATL, married 40 years, with 2 well adjusted daughters. I think independently and profoundly, have read widely, feel deeply and have experienced much to offer this candid and simple opinion. Ponder these words for a minute and move on. If lesson and meaning is not digested, it will surely be presented as an appetizer or entree for future experiential discovery. Peace & Progress to all seeking consciousness.

DkTellis needs to get historicsl facts together. For example, due to homophobia, then and to some degree now, the word “gay” meant what it does mean now.

WHAT GAY LOOKS LIKE? What straight look like? That’s LIKE asking what someone to pick who has HIV/AIDS ! In a Long term and short term relationships. If a person doesn’t want you to know;you won’t until they slip up or get a disease or after they die.
