TOTW 07/07: Was Mr. Twist homophobic?
serious crayons:
It's too bad we live in a society where homosexuality is treated as a disability, like Down's syndrome or bi-polar disorder. The latter two are problems in and of themselves, with unquestionably negative consequences for those who have them. The former is negative only if viewed that way by society at large; in an accepting culture, it needn't interfere with personal happiness.
Broketrash, I understand why you don't want homosexuality perceived as a "birth defect." But optom-3, I also understand why you would want to protect your children from society's prejudice. The way to put your attitudes in harmony is to change society. And I think it can be changed, and maybe eventually even fixed.

Merci seriouscrayons !
C'est un sujet difficile, n'est-ce pas ?
It is a difficult suject, isn't it ?
Seriouscrayons, you do bring a challenging post !
Considering if homosexuality is a birth defect, might be too dangerous as a question, since remember that many countries sent willingly homosexuals to Germany and within Germany too gays were murdered, since over 1,000,000 were killed in death camps !! And Iran to-day lines up young gays men and murdered them in a row ! Etc.!
So by saying that being gay is a defect, then gays can be killed easily just like anyone considered a retard, defective (not being so or so), others types of persons or attribute, etc., was abused and/or killed too in Germany in WW II, remember ?
Not just because I am a gay man and proud to be a human in order to help others as humans and myself, I figure that all humans have birth defects, isn't that so ?
So, all humans should not live ?? I prefer that humanity lives in peace and humans respect others and every human respecting oneself.
Does this make sense to you Seriouscrayons and to all others ??
J'aime toujours tes nouvelles (I always like your news Seriouscrayons),
Au revoir,
hugs!

I have learned and felt and feels that homosexuality is like music to me and to those who accepts it (being a gay man or woman or not) !!
Mr. Twist accepted Jack, and learned from him !
Mrs. Twist did not diminished her love for her son Jack, because he was a homosexual !!
La belle musique nous aide toutes et tous !!
Au revoir,
hugs! Being a homosexual is stimulating: gay openness to life !!

Florida is anti-gay?? Maybe you're just in the wrong part of Florida! If your son is gay, why doesn't the whole family consider moving?
My son is a teenager, and he doesn't appear to be gay. In fact, he doesn't seem to have much of a libido at all. When I compare teenagers of today with my youth, it seems we parents have it pretty easy. But I am concerned that people are learning to substitute virtual experiences, such as movies, tv, and video games, for real life relationships.
Artiste:
Being a homosexual, tells moi, oui me, that I am on Earth to be HAPPY' GAY' HELPING OTHERS AND MYSELF, and not to suffer ONLY !!
That to me, is so for all humans!!
That is why Mr. Twist tries to learn and learns from Jack !!
That is why, oui, Mrs. Twist knows that Jack is a homosexual and a good gay person... who tries to enjoy life at its utmost !!
??
Your thoughts ?
Au revoir,
hugs!
