What’s your opinion on gay/bi/trans?
 

It's not a provocation but I'd like to see what majority of people here think. I'll make the similar poll in the Rus. section to check if there is any difference.

The voting is anonymous, i.e. no one, including administration, can see who voted for what.

Thanks for voting!

Gay, bi and trans are nice. Whatever floats your boat! :) I know a transvestite who's a good friend of mine. I think he feels that he's being made fiun 0of, but i tryu to be supportive :) i mean, it's not easy having such an minority sexual thingie. hehehe.. yeah, you know. i always try to support everyone. Gay is fine by me, and if gay is fine, then bi is just as fine by me :) it's natural and just the way it is.

As everyone else :
Never judged a person about its sexuality: heterosexual, gay, bi, trans...
If I meet a person and this person is homosexual it doesn't mean I have a highest interest for this person.
Or I'm interested by the character, by the personality or not. But the sexuality was never a criteria of selection, here.

I love everyone :yes:

Only thing is, I know some people who are totally fine with gay & bi but are not comfortable with trans. And also there are gay people who are not comfortable with bi people - they don't trust them. So, I don't think all three can be grouped together.

I'm fine with all of them. Though like Nath said it's all about character. Their sexuality is just as important to me as colour of their eyes. People are people. When it all comes down to it they all have pretty similar deficiencies. I think transsexuals couldn't even be placed in this group actually - after their sex-change they effectively become straight (okay there are cases of males who prefered females having surgery and still prefering females after, which would make them lesbians, but that's a rare case I'd say).

One thing I noticed about bi people though... they usually have a very strong tendency towards one gender while they like the other one just for flavour. I've yet to meet a 50-50 bisexual. Or even 70-30. It's usually more like 90-10. That doesn't really bother me. It's just something I've noticed with people I know.

haha.. thats exactly like my friend!.. she says shes bi.. but likes prefers boys more for serious relationships.. and girls for fun and flirting.. so shes a 80-20.. i find it funny watching how she acts with female strangers and male strangers.. :D

It's probably quite controversial of me to say this, but I think a "true" bi person is someone who could have a serious relationship with either sex. I mean, I thought for bisexual people it wasn't about the gender? :dknow: I'm quite intrigued by this, so if anyone could give me a better understanding of this I would be grateful...

gays SUCK, fuck them!

^^ LMAOO @ that! :gigi:

I second that! :liplick:

:10x:

Doesn't matter, at all... I prefer not to judge people by who they fall in love with, rather who they are. I mean, I can love a straight person because I consider them nice, while hating a gay person because I think they have a nasty attitude, and vice versa. Nothing to do with sexual preference.

Although I must agree I would probably be very interested in meeting someone who is gay or bi, just for the sexuality. I think I would expect them to be more open-minded since they themselves probably have to face narrow-mindedness (Is that a word?) everyday, or at least experience it at a certain degree. This wouldn't affect our friendship though, since seeing someone just because they fascinate you doesn't automatically mean you will consider them a nice person.

That's exactly it. A true bi person should be completely immune to choosing their partners based on gender. Though more often than not those who proclaim themselves bi are just physically attracted to both gender up to an extent, while they'd never be able to imagine a serious relationship with a less liked gender. Like I said... I have yet to meet a true bisexual. I'm not saying there aren't any out there. It's just that I haven't met any. Which probably indicates they're pretty rare.

I like this wood and meadow psychology. What's with this one? Bisexual means no aversion against a gender, that doesn't mean, that there is no preference (like with right and lefthanded: most people prefer one hand to a more or less extent, but 50:50 is extremely rare.)

Never saw any 'typical' difference between gay - straight - bi, except the sexuality itself, so simply all the same.

Argos, but surely if you "prefer" one gender doesn't that make you either hetero or homo?

If a girl goes through her whole life saying she is bi but only has relationships with guys I would consider her straight, personally.

I'm incredibly tired right now so I'm off to bed, so if I'm making no sense right now please ignore me as I tend to say stupid things when I am tired.

I don't mind at all. Hell it's their lives so let them live it out the way they want too.

For comparison:

Tatysite Russian poll
Tatu.ru Russian poll

*Poll options and order are the same as above.

I believe they're like everyone else. I don't believe you are an entirely different human being because you dont like the opposite sex. I don't any transexuals personally and believe it or not, I haven't seen many (even though I live in NYC) so I don't know how to relate to them.

Well, same as everybody else,,,,in the inside and physically too.....but surely for people who are not used to share time with them being gay, bi and trans is not that OK,,,,, I don't mind,,,, but to be honest I don't undestand trans,,,, sorry if I'm ignorant but can't get why change your body,,,, being with a guy which wants you because you look like a girl,,,, Maybe they like to feel themselves like girls /boys when they're not. Well, everybody's lifes are so precious,,,, we're all the same and deserve respect. So wether I don't understand it,,, who am I,,, just a human being like you, and them,,,, take care everybody,,,,,,, :rose:

I would agree on that, but it may be a matter of definition. If the girl is sexually attracted to girls too, (at least to some) but she never dared, I would not strictly call her straight. But her lifestyle is straight then.

Is there a Tatu.ru English poll too?
