Off topic. "Big, burly, gay guy."

Hi all. I was at lunch with a friend of mine. She was talking about how our little sisters are going away to college in August. She asked me whether or not the school she is going to has coed dorms. I said that I did not know. She said that she was not sure about her little sister's school, either. She asked me if I would mind if my little sister shared a room with another dude. For obvious reasons, I said "no." She said that she would want her sister to share a room with another guy, so that she "would be protected." This makes a little sense. She said that she needs to find our sisters a "big, burly, gay guy" to be their roomates.

Point.

Well the big, gay guy should be easily found, not sure about burly since "hair" is just not "in"! Many guys are waxing these days!

Perhaps to "some extent", however, the gay world opens up a whole other "can of worms", so to speak! There was a crime show on last night that depicted a man that killed his gay lover when he found him messing with another guy! Personal safety, common sense, and a little bit of luck may be the only thing we really have to keep us from becoming victims!

Isanah, I hope I understand your analogy regarding the gay couple, that unfortunately domestic violence happens in a lot of relationships, whatever your sexual orientation might be. Personal awareness of situations is very important. Could you please explain to me what 'can of worms' the gay world opens up?

Yes, please don't read into that comment so much. Violence is every where and not inclusive to any group at all. Just happen to see that true crime show and commented about that. It isn't my hope to make anything into a gay issue!

That is one possible scenario that may happen!



Obviously, all aspects of any lifestyle have their own issues to contend with on an individual basis! One issue that I addressed when seeking a roommate is whether they have "casual" affairs for I did not want that to occur in my home no matter if they were straight or gay, male or female. Another thought would be issues some gays have with accepting themselves and coping with possible alienation from their families. Just can be another "can of worms" to consider when seeking a roommate! I'm leaving it at that!

Whatever someone's sexual orientation is doesn't manner to me, but when I sought a roommate the more secure the person is with their identity the better as far as I'm concerned! BTW, we were talking about the young college student population where many are experiencing their first taste of freedom away from their families! They have a lot of issues to deal with and being gay in this country has its' own "problems" to deal with aside from all the "usual" shit!

Isanah, if you didn't want to persist with gay issues why did you continue to comment on them? Identity difficulties also arise amongst most young people whether they are sexual, cultural or religious issues. The transition from child to adolesence into adultdood can be traumatic for a variety of reasons and family situations. Feeling secure in your own mind and skin does not come easy for many people. Please , free your worms and recycle your can. Make yourself more informed and aware before you speak of issues you appear to know nothing about.

Isanah, if you didn't want to turn your response into a gay issue why do you persist in commenting in a contentious manner? Identity difficulties arise for many young people as they move through the transition from child to adolescent to adult, for a variety of reasons stemming from family background, education, culture, economics, religous and sexual orientation. Feeling secure in ones identity and comfortable in your own skin can be difficult for many, the reasons for confusion often comes from the society that we live in. Please inform yourself and raise your awareness before you comment on serious issues that you no nothing about or you just perpetuate myths. Free the worms and recycle your can and think before you type!
