4. Tisn't different at all, bieng fat is a lifestyle, your fat (Not you you, the metaphorical you.) because that is your lifestyle, same with homosexuality, you can hide both of those lifestyles, and both of them can bring STRONG hatred and anger towards you.

Actually, it is. If I were gay, I would probably take offense. But me, being a fairly large person (no I am not gigantofat, I'm just a bit chubby. I play games all day, what do you expect? :lol:), I have no problem being made fun of. Even if people are being serious, I just laugh. Being fat isn't a chosen lifestyle, well, not like "I want to be fat", but through actions it is. You get the idea. So really, they are quite different. You can stop being fat, but you can't stop being gay. I don't think.

Ah, screw it, I don't know what I'm on about.

Erm, ima edit that because after reading the part you quoted, it reads like "You can hide it, so you should." and that isn't what I meant.

a bit like my friend, when we first started college we were gettin on the bus and goin home together like normal friends should always playin video games together and hanging out then after about a week or two he gets a girlfriend they both claim after 2 days there in love then he goes extra early to meet his girl at college he drops her at home all the time, he has not played his xbox in a month, he is barely on msn cause hes hangin at his girls house 24-7,

the moral of this stupid story is WTF is up wiv friends these days lol.... I think u shud confront ure friend and tell him how much of a douchbag him and his friends are then pwn him at halo and then show him the existence of depression. i normally just ignore douchbag friends, do what makes u feel happy.

that's different. you're talking about the famous "bros over hos" argument. sure, it's extreme that he's left you high and dry for a month...but hey, the reality of it is "hos over bros" ;)

They sound like massive wankers.

Amen to that.

Ignore them. Doesn't sound like much of a friend to me. I'd just do anything to avoid them. Stay away from them in school, etc.

I have a friend like that... Or did. He's in need of a casual ass kicking which he shall be receiving off me if he doesn't stfu.

You guys don't usually give your mates a good thrashing? Maybe 'tis the viking in us Swedes, but we do it regularly!

1. You kinda did.

2. No you didn't say that, Zarkes read it fast and thought you called homoism a mental problem, when you really said "Making fun of him because he is and has a serious mental problem."

3. Who is to say it was malicious? They could be doing it for fun but not realize the effect upon Tia, if he gives what he is taking then they might realize the extent of it.

4. Tisn't different at all, bieng fat is a lifestyle, your fat (Not you you, the metaphorical you.) because that is your lifestyle, same with homosexuality, you can hide both of those lifestyles, and both of them can bring STRONG hatred and anger towards you.
Fat was an awful example on my part.

I personally don't recall saying that. Is someone assuming?

Didn't say that either...

You can see that Tias situation is entirely different, they were saying it maliciously, not playfully.
It doesnt sound malicious at all actually. Idk no offense but where I come from "fag" is a very popular curse werd and many of my friends use it.

Are you serious? You guys friends grow up, change, allthat stuff just because they are a jerk or not playing videogames all day long wih you doesnt mean they are in the wrong at all.

Some people are born with low metabolism and are born fat. Either you can joke about anything or you can joke about nothing. Do you really expect to call someone a fatass and when they call you a fag you go and throw a betchfit? In my world atleast it doesnt werk like that.

Usually if yu avoid a friend only one of you gets the rest of he group and if you have no other friends thats not a gewd option.

First time in a while I've given rep for a good argument, but that is the perfect point.

And as far as I know, not saying I know a lot, you can stop being gay. All things are possible, that, for one, I am sure of.

Can you stop being sexually attracted to women?

I see your point. The only way to stop is to WANT to stop. I could stop if I wanted to, but I'd rather not. And not just because of religion.

I don't think so - you could repress the feelings of attraction and resist temptation, but not being attracted is pretty much impossible.

Re: What are friends for?

Thanks for all the positive responses people - I love you all <3

I've got school in a few minutes, having to go to a full day of in-school suspension, I was not feeling too well - this definitely brightened my mood.

I used to be like them and not believe in stuff like depression and weight problems but you really gotta lewk at things logically.

No you can't.

You cant stop even if you wanted too, religion keeps you guilty of sex and scared of sin it keeps you attached to you family so you are prepared to be an adult who is controlled and manipulated. Your brain never fully develops.
