Response to how do u know, huh?

 

First off to say that you can tell a person is gay just by looking at them is in a word stupid. This is not always true. There are some men and women who are openly gay and do fit the flamer and dike profile. However that is not always true. I have been working in a HIV residence latly this residence is for people with HIV or full blown AIDES who have no where else to go due to lack of money or the fact that their families have disowned them. Some of these men who live in this residence are openly gay infact most of them are and you can tell by how they act they fit the profile but there is one man who is gay that lives in the residence that if you saw him you would never know he had HIV much less if he was gay. He is very handsome and very masculine and yes he is gay. So to sit there and say that you can tell by looking it is not always true.

I mean that is as stupid as racial profiling. Saying that a certain person in a certain area is gonna do a certain thing. NOt all people fit into that profile. To be honest I have had dear friends harrassed due to their skin tone. I myself have been pulled over and asked where I was going and what I was doing because I had a person of a different race with me and this police officer just had to know who that was in my car. like it was any of his business. I had a friend of mine who was walking in his neighborhood which is a nice area of town but because of his skin tone he was harrassed by the police and had hand cuffs put on him because he "fit" the discription of a man pulling robberies in the area. yeah right.

I'm sorry this junk makes me so mad. You cannot judge a book by it's color. Take a look at Ted Bundy. He was a upper class white man who was not bad looking and very intelligent and went on a killing spree across the nation. No saying you can tell someone by looking at them is not always true.
