And the first image that comes to mind is a gay, female Asian professional? 😉

Normally I’m totally with you on the mud slinging, and I rarely sling it myself – only when fired upon, or when someone says something so inane that I lose control of my typing fingers – e.g.,

[quote=paramount]Homosexuality is a behavior, not an eye or hair color.[/quote]

Those people don’t think it’s possible for someone to be innately attracted to the same gender, but not because they have any evidence for it – it’s a taught prejudice like any other. Gays must be deluding themselves, or are mentally damaged in some way. In some cases that’s true, but what about the majority who had completely normal childhoods?

Here on Earth, what little evidence we have points to the brain’s structure having the biggest influence. Their attraction to the same gender is just as powerful as that of a heterosexual to the opposite gender, most weren’t brainwashed or damaged, and they have no more desire to change than I do to become gay.

All that said, I actually agree with those who think there are more important things to teach in our schools.

No.. gay male anglo professional.

female homosexuals tend towards the male on behavior (generalization).
male homosexuals tend towards the female on behavior (generalization).
You want someone neat, keeps to themselves, and a little anal-retentive.. (no pun intended there).

I don’t think you’re been around many gay men. Gay men that I know love to party, have friends over, especially if they have places to host. That means somone has to clean and repair the house.

Generally, in real estate terms, people who choose to be roommates or housemates tend to do so to save money. Otherwise they would buy or rent their own places.

So money is an issue. The key is to find someone who won’t be periordically short of money because of blah, blah, blah… That means finding a housemate for whom saving money is a reason, but not the primary reason.

Anal-retentive is derogatory. I like fastidious better.

IMO, being fastidious is a very good trait like showing high intelligence. That puts you in the 90th percentile of the population.

If being normal means having the health and lifestyle standards of the average person, then I’m perfectly fine being abnormal or weird.
