First I will start by introducing myself: I’m a boy and quite an ordinary one, whose only desire is to love and to be loved back in return. I may be young and anyone can tell that I’m not experienced, but being gay in this world gives you the „pleasure” of being experienced in life at a very fragile age. So I will not tell you why I am experienced in life… these few worlds say it all: "I’m gay!”.
Gay love
I’ve been in past relationships before with girls and boys alike, but girls didn’t interest me, didn’t give me the pleasure of life… so it was only for my image: I had to try it out so I could be sure that I am what I was meant to be. So after going out with girls I was convinced that my life with a boy is the something that I’ve always imagined: something beautiful.
There appears to be a strong link between homosexuality and our artistic side. The connection between art and homosexual behavior dates back to thousands of years ago. To completely understand the connection you have to look at the history of art and homosexuality.
Artists with the same sex desires have played a major role in the creation of art especially within the last century. A complete account of the 20th century artists who were thought to be homosexual would come close to a chronicle by modern art in its entirety.
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.
I have went to a couple of gay bars and enjoyed going. I first started going to gay gay bar when I was just in college. It all started when myself and a couple of co workers got together and decided to visit a gay bar. The parking lot was crowded with cars, and there were people standing outside talking and having a great time. Upon entering the gay bar we were all asked of our ids paid the price and walked inside. The music was blaring and the dance floor was crowded.
On this particular night that I went they were having a Queen and King show. I had never been to a show like this before. My friends and I sat near the dance floor. The lights were dimmed and each performer came out one by one. The show was great and everyone was very friendly. I enjoyed that everyone was willing to greet and meet each other in a friendly safe atmosphere.
I am quite a social creature and I love meeting new people. And I had met a lot of varied characters throughout my life, and most of the time I managed to cover up fairly well the fact that sometimes I didn’t feel I fit in. From simple to complex, from kind to rude, from smart to über-intelligent, I got by and hid my insecurities.
I considered myself a clever chameleon that can blend in and can’t say I ever felt a particular need to belong. I adapted to the situation at hand.
Are you?
Here are some funny points that hold a seed of truth in them (coincidence or not??), which can help us find out if someone is gay or not:
Romania’s institutional recognition of gay rights has been in place since 2002, when prosecution was abolished. Its anti-discrimination and anti hate crime legislation is progressive. The country was recognized in 2006 for making major strides in tolerance. When it joined the European Union in 2007, the country was required to acknowledge gay marriages fro other locations.
However, social tolerance has been very slow to follow. In this country, which remains largely Orthodox, gay couples would be wise to exercise caution about public displays of affection. However, there is a plethora of gay and gay tolerant clubs where you can let it all hang out.
Romania does not yet recognize same sex domestic partnership or marriage, so you should avoid staying at small, family-type hostelries. However, top tier hotels should be discreet and respectful. If in doubt, ask about the establishment’s level of gay tolerance before making a reservation.
You fall in love with a person, you don’t fall in love with a sex.
Males tend to self-define following homosexual activity and generally equate being gay with erotic attraction instead of romantic connection. Obviously, all young males are socialized to put sex before relationship. Gay men often resemble straight men in sexual assertiveness, roaming, valuing physical attributes, and finding love, if, after sexual conquest.
Because girls used to be conditioned to complete the alternative, research on lesbians often found them self-defining after falling in love. Their erotic feelings evolved from prior emotional attachment.
LATE-BLOOMING
More than a decade ago, [Nancy] Walsh and [Carol] Flyzik met as nurses at Hale Hospital in Haverhill and became fast friends. Then they fell in love. No one was more surprised than Nancy Walsh that the object of her affection was a woman. "Totally, totally shocked," she said. She had been married for 19 years, then divorced, and had never before been involved with a woman. "," Walsh said.
Kathleen Burge, "Sept. 11 Leaves Same-Sex Partners Adrift," Boston Globe Online, (March 18, 2002).
Perhaps homosexual subculture has reinforced these gender differences. Until recently urban gay males were acculturated mostly in bars and other places where sex was the object. Lesbians socialized in friendship circles and also the women's community, where personal ties and mutual support were stressed. Because a lot of women seem capable of intense connections with other women there were opportunities for his or her attachments to become homosexual relationships.
Women's sexual autonomy, partly a product of their economic advancement, only has enhanced those opportunities.
Apparently, things are getting a little bit better, both on the financial and the psychological/emotional plan. It was about dam` time! It`s amazing how some people can change your evening in a positive way. For the New Year`s Party, I got a few nice offers from my friends, so I have to think about them and pick one.
Although now I`m feeling a bit more okay and that weird loneliness feeling is somehow gone, holidays are close and I so hate holidays, especially Christmas. Maybe it`s because I didn`t really celebrate Christmas in the traditional kind of way, you know, for me and my family it`s all about that Christmas dinner and that`s all. We seldom gave presents to each other. It`s just another day of the year. Unfortunately.
