The Gay Elephant in the room????


I thought about writing this blog for quite some time especially since a relative of mine called me in tears concerning another family member. I am sure everybody either knows or has a gay/down low family member. Then again, some of us pretend like we don't see the gay elephant in the room-lol! I recall an old co-worker asking me about my views on homosexuality and marriage for her class assignment discussion. I told her that I firmly believe that everyone has the choice to do what ever they please, but when it comes to both sexes getting married I believe that you are in error. Before I get you haters going, let me finish.
From my perspective, God is the one who instituted the marriage concept and the way he instructed was for a man and a woman period. So if two people want to be together "so be it", but when you try to change the game from Adam and Eve to Adam and Steve-you are, in my opinion, you are mocking your creator!
Really the gay thing goes deeper (no pun) than most people know. I have heard some views say that it starts at birth, others just have a change of heart after years of doubt, some claim to be prison gay= ya know straight when they get back on the outside. Like I said who really knows! Back when I worked at St.Vincent's I was encouraged to hire a gay while guy by my female staff because he would supposedly be neater than other men. What an interesting situation that turned out to be. He started wearing pink Timberland boots and female T-shirts to work that said very inappropriate things. Then he started having his lover/s stop the job to bring him dinner. Thats when it got to deep for me! The only positive I can say about him was, I am sure he did not want me and he sure as helicopter know I didn't want him!
I have always wondered why the down low brotha was incognegro if they choose to be gay??? The great Jerry Springer said ""Its ok to be anything you want to be in life, but if you are going to be friends with anybody they have the right to at least look in your closet to know who they are dealing with".
I was told tha some gayz equate their struggle with that of blacks of the 1960's! OMG, I don't recall my parents waking up looking in the mirror screaming "We are black- We got to go march". I personally see many differences here, but who am again....
Nobody is perfect in this world that I know of, and since we R all adults and able to make big boy and fat girl choices & deal with all the consequences, then by all means do you in the the light because we know what happens to thangs in he dark.
I be that Ward dude...again!
