It's because I want to remind you why people hate gay people. Most of the time the answer is the fact that their gay means that they should be hated. Mostly the other reason is the way they dress or move or talk. An EXTREMELY rare reason is because another male have approached you or another male in a sexual way. Well, they are just like that. There is no way for you or anyone else (even theraphy) to turn a gay person straight.
The Reason Why Some People "Turn" Gay
You're probably thinking how the world is much better without gay people... So maybe you're asking yourself, how did this guy turn gay? or why is this guy is gay? Some reasons are unbelievably simple and some are complicated. Some common reason is that a straight male person turns gay because he finds another male extremely attractive(in a physical way) so instead of simply talking to the person and becoming friends, he tries to get that person's attention in a female manner(he acts like a girl). Of course, that male would think that this is incredibly disgusting or weird. Another reason is in rare cases hereditary. One of my friends is a gay person, his dad was a gay male prostitute when he was in his teenage years, but for some reason... became straight when he found the woman that he is married to today but he still has gay tendencies. Some people just turn gay so they they can get more attention(negative or not) or they have an A.D.D(Attention Deficit Disorder).
Why Do Some People Hang Out With Gay People?
So you see a guy hanging out with a gay person... What do you do? Most people immediately think the guy hanging out with the gay person is stupid or gay or disgusting and from that moment on they insult you physically and emotionally. BUT the real reason why they hang out with gay people is because that they are funny and fun to be with! Gay people are HILARIOUS! Gay people talk funny(not saying in an insultive way) and they make really good conversations. People judge them before they even get to know them! Like the old saying... "Don't judge a book by its cover". What that means is that you should know about more the person first before you judge them. Like maybe have a proof about your judgement. Some of my friends are gay and maybe you're thinking that Im stupid or something... NO, before I used to make fun of gay people or people that I just plainly didnt like the way they dress, talk, move or think. But one of my friends was hanging out with this gay person at school. So I walk up to them and grab my friend by the arm and said "Hey! don't talk to him. He's retarded and disgusting, do you know what other people will think of you?" but I soon regret what I did. I lost a friend. Now I'm totally cool with gay people. If I see someone making fun of one. I defend that gay person.
I Have A New Way of Seeing People. What Do I Do?
So maybe after reading my article you see gay people in a more positive way, but if I start being nice to gay people, I might lose friends, people will make fun of me and I will be considered as a "loser" at school. What do I do? So you want to see how you do with gay people without being socially wrecked... What you do is bring this subject to your friends. Ask them why are they mean to gay people? and tell them why they should hang out with gay people. Before I usually started with: "hey guys I was just thinking... why are you mean to gay people?" Then you start having a conversation about this. Then I said "You know... you should try talking to one, dude I saw this gay person at a party and he was SO HILARIOUS! I was sitting next to him and while eating he brought up this subject to his friends that I liked so I just joined in... He was so funny!". Im not sure if your friends reacted the way mine did. I made new friends and had fun. I didn't go through a day without laughing in a conversation with a gay person.
Social Tips
Don't be mean to people. Be friendly and your friends would think you're cool
Always be friendly, when you start talking a person that you dont like dont be mean! Have a polite conversation and dont start making crap about that person. You will feel guilty...
Find more about the person before judging him. Preferably talking to him and seeing how it goes.
Dont do crap to nerds or geeks. If you're friends with one maybe they would show you an entertaining online game, or teach you about school things like math, english or science. Some geeks are really funny and they talk funny but some people think their stupid.
Don't care about what other people think about you! Maybe someone says you're fat or someone says you're ugly but other people say you're cool or sexy. It's just an opinion! if someone insults you make a clever comeback or just simply laugh at it.
Don't start fights and rivalries. If someone wants to fight you and you back off, some people would think your girly or a call you a wimp and insult you. but seriously... its not cool. If you manage to beat someone up, you will feel guilty. Beating someone up might turn them into a emotional wreck because people insult him because you beat him up. YOU WILL FEEL REALLY GUILTY! If that ever happened to you and you see someone making fun of that person. Defend the person you had a fight with. You'll make a new friend.
Don't fall into peer preassure. If your friends are doing something you dont like doesnt mean you have to join in and forcibly like it. If they make fun of you, you shouldnt care. If they ARE making fun of you... then you shouldnt be even friends with them.
Be nice. Make friends! make people like you! You'll feel good! No one wants enemies. If you do have enemies make up with that person and be friends...
