Tylor Robinson-Chp. 33 Performing Commitment

Coming from a small town in Nebraska my opinions on homosexuality may be tainted. This reading gave me some insight on the gay lifestyle, but I am still confused about why someone would possess the desire to be gay, I may never understand this. I feel that homosexuality is completely going against the laws of nature.

            I thought it was interesting that the author of this article was a preacher’s daughter. I also thought it was interesting that the couple in the article didn’t invite their parents to their “marriage of addresses party.” I think this sends a very strong message about how homosexuality is viewed. In my family my parents support me in everything I do and I usually try to avoid situations that I think may disappoint my parents.

          Even though my parents may say they would support me in anything I do not think I would have there support if I was gay. To me homosexuality is wrong, but I do not have the right to judge how people live there life. I do not have a problem with gay people and try to keep my opinions to myself as long as they don’t ask for my opinion or try to force their lifestyle choices on me. 

Discussion Qusetions
1) Why do you think people choose to be homosexual?
2) How do you think the relationship between a parent and child is affected by the child's sexuality?
