Are lesbians/gay men accepted equally?

There was an incident at a bar in my city on the weekend, two women got booted out for kissing on the dance floor whilst hetero couples were allowed to keep going at it. Now, this sort of treatment is illegal and is pretty much an open and shut case.

But it got me thinking.

Men are men and women are women, two different genders. When they pair up with people of their own gender, are they seen as more or less acceptable than same-sex couples of the other gender?

Are lesbians (both in couples and by themselves) seen as more or less socially acceptable than gay men?

This is not mean't to start an argument about whether or not homosexuality is acceptable, thats another topic entirely.

Discuss.

It's because we live in a male dominated world.
Meaning lesbians are genrally accepted and gays not.

Personaly I don't swing that way, but if other people do so what!

I can confirm they were NOT. Big picture in todays Press.

To be honest they should be pleased to be kicked out of the Grumpy Mole as its a complete shithole.

But yeah I cant see whats wrong with them kissing like half the rest of the pub would have been, Although being brutally honest I wouldnt want to turn around and see a couple of blokes kissing.

So I guess that means I think Lesbians are more acceptable than gay blokes.

Lesbians are more accepted, because (within reason) a womans body is a beautiful thing. Nobody wants to see two hairy dudes swappin spit on a dance floor. But when two attractive women do it, it's totally hot. That's just the way it is.

Well, those are of course the exception. Nobody wants to see two chicks with hairy knuckles and short hair trading DNA either. Well, I'm sure there is a handful of people that do, but that's another story. But thats what I meant by "within reason".

Being an avid fan of lesbian porn, I'll second the motion that lesbians are more acceptable...

I don't think either is seen as "acceptable". At least not within my circle of friends and family. Also, we don't feel that way because it's "anti-religious" or some kind of "redneck agenda", we feel that way because it is un-natural.

There are males and females for a reason. I hear people use the arguement "they were born that way", or "its just the way they are". Umm no. If they were "born" that way, one would have been born a female and one a male, thats the way it works. If nature intended people to be homosexual, we would have evolved to have both a penis and a vagina.

I challenge anyone to show me something that proves that being homosexual is one of any reasons including but not limited too:

Natural.
Moral.
Spiritual.

Personally I think it's a mental thing. Kind of like how children break rules and disobey their parents to be rebellious and feel like they have control of their lives. Only difference being that homosexuals take it to a whole new level in being rebellious against the laws of nature and common sense. They feel they are in complete control or that they are "unique" in some way, but in reality they are just fucking each other in the ass.

Holy shit cougar, I never thought I'd live to see this day, but I think I actually kinda agree with you.

When did you decide to become heterosexul?

Many species are asexual.

What about parthenogenesis?

Maybe it is nature telling us that we are too populated, and is trying to thin the population through male/male companionship.

I know, but in nature it exists. It is natural. Not to humans, yet.

Answer the question, please.

When did you make the decision to be heterosexual?

Have to say I agree with Cougar too.

And the answer to the question is: Before I even made a conscious decision. That's how your brain is supposed to be wired.

Exactly. I also see alot of people argue the fact that some species are asexual, or the very, very few species that show homosexual characteristics, but in the end it doesn't change the fact that we are not those species. Thats about as vague as saying that fish can breathe underwater so cows should too. Homosexuality is nothing more than a fad. Look back through history and you may see a handful of homosexuals, today, it seems like everyone is a homo.

Homo Sapians are hetrosexual. We always have been. Thats how we reproduce. You only use your penis to pee and procreate, so unless your taking a piss in someones ass, it shouldn't go there and you really have no excuse. End of story.
