We all live in the vast sea of society, where everyone is running, planning their lives, accomplishing something great, working hard for every penny, some are just leaving and some are just coming home, some are leaving someone and some find they one true love. So as you’re sailing on this infinite sea, you might find yourself getting in big storms or calm waters. Sometimes you may have to make big decisions for you to make in trough.
Sailing on this sea you may find other people struggling to get on with their boat, and sometimes you just sail alone.
Freedom of belief is undeniably a fundamental principle of any democracy, one that nobody can censor through any means. To deny it is to deny the existence of the most basic characteristic of humans: thought. As such, one is not only free, but uncontrollably bound to believe and think unrestrained by any possible law, no matter how well versed.
Photo of Sigmund Freud.
Sigmund Freud was the founder of the psychoanalytic school pf psychiatry. He had many theories when it comes to psychoanalysis, but besides these, he is also famous among the members of the LGBT community because of one of his personal beliefs. He thought that we were all born bisexual, and we have the chance to decide later in life whether we are straight or gay. Some people agree with Sigmund Freud`s theory regarding bisexuality, while others are totally against it.
Besides the fact that I find this topic quite interesting and a very nice subject to debate, I would like to find out what others think about this. Were we all born bisexual? If Sigmund Freud`s theory would be true, then all of the studies and researches made in order to determine whether we choose to be gay or lesbian will be declared "busted".
Being gay-friendly is a very important factor when selling cars.
You`ve probably heard some guys who claim that their gay-dar is automatically turned on each time they see a guy driving a car which belongs to a particular car brand (a so-called "gay friendly car brand"). Why`s that? Well, most of the gay and bisexual men prefer some types of car brands, because just as any car buyer, they care about the attitude of the dealers. However, talking about the color now, although in the past having a red car was seen as weird for a man, nowadays this isn`t something out of the ordinary.
I did some research and here are a few of the most owned car brands by gay and bisexual men:
1. Mazda. Apparently, Mazda is the most wanted car brand when it comes to gay/bisexual car buyers.

Theoretically speaking, the terms of "transsexual/transgender fan" and "transsexual/transgender chaser" mean pretty much the same thing, and reffer to heterosexual/bisexual/pansexual men who are particularly attracted by pre-op and post-op Tgirls. On the other hand, if you ask me, there`s this thing which makes the difference between these two terms and I shall explain you why.
From what I`ve seen on dating or social networking sites, some men have this passion for transgender women because they look/smell/act very feminine and are passable, too. These particular men are known to be trans-fans or simply admirers, because of their passion for feminity and beauty. However, they do not put any accent on the genitalia, since in their eyes a transgender woman is not different from a genetic one.
Child in mother`s womb.
One of the biggest questions concerning gay people is if they are born gay, they become this way after certain experiences or if they choose to be homosexuals because they like men rather than women. Some psychologists are convinced that it all starts in the childhood and certain influences (if the kid stays more with his mom and dad`s missing, it is likely for him to turn gay or transgender), while scientists claim that it all starts in the womb and certain factors such as hormones are the ones responsible for the child`s orientation when he will grow up. As usually, on this blog I`m gonna talk about some theories which say that gay men are influenced since they`re in their mother`s womb and I`d really like you to share your opinions and thoughts, saying what you think about this.
A recent study shows that those men who have older brothers are more prone to be gay than those who are the only child. This theory says that after the mother gives birth to several kids, her organism is used to producing more and more estrogen according to every birth. Therefore, as an example if a woman gives birth to 5 boys, the last one`s (the youngest) chances to be gay are doubled. On the other hand, not all scientists appear to agree with this theory, so the actual fact is still blurry and I think nobody will know for sure in the near future.
Can you bet he`s honest?
You don`t have to be a control freak or an extremely jelous person in order to know if your boyfriend lies to you. Even if you pretend not to care and no matter how open minded you are, you`re always affected each time the one you love, I mean your boyfriend lies to you. You know what they say, as a woman you don`t know when your boyfriend lies to you, you just feel it (guess it works for gay men too)! In order to see if your boyfriend lies to you, you could go for the lie detector or just read my advice. Here I am going to present you 5 ways to see if your boyfriend lies to you.
1. Eyes never lie!
Well, I guess eyes are the mirror of the soul after all, huh? You can tell if your boyfriend lies to you only by looking in his eyes each time you ask him a question. If he hesitates, looks down to his shoes or just admires the ceiling with no reasons it is obvious that your boyfriend lies to you or at least has something to hide.
Harvey Milk
The Harvey Milk Movie shows the story of Harvey Milk, a gay American politician. Although at first Harvey Milk did not accept the fact that he was gay, when he realized he cannot do anything to change that he decided to come out and so he became the first gay men to be elected in politics.
When he moved to San Francisco back in 1972, Harvey Milk tried to run for the political office for several time but he didn`t succeed. After 5 years of struggling, Harvey Milk finally won and was named a City Supervisor in 1977, thing that highlighted the changed that were about to take place in San Francisco at that time. He proved everybody that an openly gay man can win political office, although all his friends tried to convince him of the contrary.
Taking lives is not the right punishment.
When we are talking about the death penalty, I like to think about us, the human race, that we have significantly evolved on every plan for the past few centuries and we continue to do so. A few hundreds years ago, one of the most used ways of punishing murderers or thieves was by the death penalty. The death penalty consisted in cutting heads off by using the guillotine or simply hanging people in front of everybody, the hanged one usually being given as a bad example to the people.
The death penalty has no place in the modern world. Why is that? It`s quite simple, the ability of living in a society, developing relatioships and friendships along with having the power of judging what`s good or not are the things that make a difference between humans and animals. The death penalty should not be an option even when it comes about people who have done horrible things in the past.
Would you go for esthetic surgeries?
We know that esthetic surgeries are an option for many of us, especially when we are talking about stars and Hollywood celebs. But what happens when some of them just forget the number of the esthetic surgeries they`ve had? Or what about those persons which made an obsession for the perfect, flawless look, and due to the countless esthetic surgeries have become monsters? Here is what I think.
Not once did it happen for BBC, CNN and all the big news channels to present cases of personalities that decided it was time to go for the scalpel and diminish the first signs of the age and the surgery went awfully wrong. Nobody assures us that once we go for esthetic surgeries we will get the results we were expecting or that there is no posibility for complications to occur. It is a risk we like to take, just for the sake of a younger face or a more beautiful body. But is it really worth it?
