If you could take a pill to make it all go away, would you!?

[Dimentio]

I am pretty sure this goes in here, If not TWPR, But just angry so not got my head together ha ha.
ANYWHO! Well this homophobic guy was giving me issues on the internet (10th person in 3 months) And he said "If i could give you a pill to make it all go away would you!?" Meaning, To make me straight and everything but i said back simply "My childhood dream was to have a wife and make kids a normal way and have a happy family, And if i was straight i am already certain i fount who my wife would have been, But i was born gay and i can still have a family and i am happy how i am and nothing will change that, Besides, Women seem to love me and men love me to on a different level ;)" And he didn't reply to that ha ha.
So my question for you LGBT people out there, If there was a pill to make you straight and "fix" everything out, Would you take it, Or be like me and don't take it!? Intrested to see what others think ha ha.

[InfinantSilence]

Absolutely not. I love being bi/ gay. Or whatever i am. I wouldn't trade it for the world. And anyone who thinks that all LGBT people would take a magic "pill" to "fix" them. Has completly gone off the deep end. However if there was a pill to fix all the broken reationships, homophobia, bullying, rejction etc. I think all members of the LGBT community would have it.

[lou lou]

I'll sum it up In 1word.........NO!!
I'm happy just the way I am :)

[xXJust Jump ItXx]

Im strait... But if I was bi or gay, Id say no. Haha :)

[Midland]

I wouldn't. It just feels right to be who I am now, who I will always be. I couldn't imagine it any other way.

[TigerBoy]

Hell no.

I love being gay because

I don't want to take part in all the macho bullshit which seems to really screw with straight boys heads sometimes.
I love that guys are more straightforward about sex and horniness and romance (at least in my experience anwyay).
Boys have cuter bottoms (cute boy vs cute girl) and I dont know if that is because of teh gay or not lol, but i've heard straight guys on tv admire Kylie's bum and say something like its as pert as young boys, so ... :confused:
I really don't like girl parts to look at, and I've had straight boys tell me the same, but I love the look of (most) boy parts.
I like an equal to wrestle around with, I like that strength and the possibility i'm going to be pinned or whatever.
I like having common interests which might not be the case with a girl.


Its not just that I can't imagine being any other way, but being gay links into so much of the rest of my personality and opinions it would completely change who I am, so talking this pill would kill off 'me'. Do I want to commit suicide? NO.

[JustAnotherGay]

Up until about 5 weeks ago, I would of said Yes. But as you come to terms with being gay, you learn that nothing has really changed. The only thing is that you like guys parts more than girls parts, and who actually cares!
"Love yourself for who you are"
"Prejudice is just Ignorance" and remember...
"You are unique, nothing can replace you"

[OregonStateDude]

Not a chance. I like the way I am and there's nothing wrong with me. Besides, girls can be annoying at times; I relate so much better to guys.

[Syvelocin]

Nope. Girls are... *drool* It pisses me off but all the bullshit bigotry is worth it.

[Axw_JD]

I probably would... it would kill off who I am? fine, everyone seems to hate me anyways, no big loss... it would probably make things easier...

[RoseyCadaver]

Give me dick or give me death.

[highfieldsboy]

Hmm a hard question.

I have never felt what being straight is like - i always had an attraction to the same sex when i was about 10 onwards, or messing about with friends whilst growing up.

Dunno what being straight would feel like.
If i could take a pill and make all the social awkwardness and issues it brings sure, but as for feelings... i doubt i'd change them.

[LoveMe_HateMe]

Hmm, would I?

Tough one. Yes and no. Don't get me wrong I love my girlfriend to pieces and wouldn't want to give her up for anything... But as much as I love being a lesbian, sometimes, just sometimes it would be so much easier to be straight. There wouldn't be all of the "OMG there's two lesbians walking around holding hands" "OMG that's so wrong and unnatural" etc. There'd be no hate, and I'd feel slightly safer walking round some places being in a "straight" relationship. Oh, and having kids in the future would be easier and hell of a lot cheaper if in a straight relationship because obviously guys have the "right parts"... And it would be possible to actually get a marriage and not a civil partnership, don't get me wrong, I know they are essentially the same but I don't agree with the fact that same sex couples can't have a marriage that is legally seen as a marriage. Eh, rambling about things that isn't actually anything to do with the question... Sorry...

Back to the original question. No I wouldn't take it. For all the bad things and such that being a lesbian (and gay/trans/bi) brings... Once you find that one person (like my girlfriend) everything is worth it, from the dirty looks to the nasty comments. It becomes worth it.

[Coolboi]

must be the pill will kill you that's the only to make a change to you . rember this I am what I am so like it or leave it . an no don't take it an bee your self you are so perfect the way you are ��

[HunterSteele]

Yes. I want to be normal like everyone else.

[AppealToReason]

No. I'd be lying to myself and changing who I really am. Plus, it would seem like fixing a mental disorder and I don't see anything wrong with my sexuality, so there is nothing to fix.

[Extreme586]

Yes I would take the pill to "fix me". It just feels like a lot of my social anxiety and awkwardness comes from being different and not wanting to be judged by other people, nor made fun of. Besides, I wonder what could happen if I had been born straight. I could have had better guy friends, you know people to actually relate too and talk to girls about. I wouldn't feel the stabbing pain every time some guy I like talks about chicks and I over hear it. I wouldn't have to hide anything, from EVERYONE...

And most of all, I wouldn't fear coming off straight as I do coming off gay to other boys in my school. I wouldn't have to ask myself whether or not my secret is going to be spilled by someone I like. I could go to homecoming and this year...Prom and be with people that are my friends. I wouldn't feel terrible every time I'm asked why I don't date anyone. Or the fact that I have to answer to being a virgin, which isn't that bad but what about not having my first kiss yet at 16?

No taking a pill wouldn't fix everything. There's all that bull shit and problems with my family over the years. You know its bad when the only place I feel normal and ok is at home. So the answer to your question, is mostly yes but also no, because I need quite a bit more than a pill to "fix me".

I agree with this except I'm sort of a 'macho' gay. Also I wouldn't swap anyone for my boyfriend and I don't think I'd find anyone better than him. So basically no I wouldn't take one.

[StoneColdNicky]

That was a really good answer that you gave him Kieran.

About a year or two ago, I would have loved to take a pill like that. I spent so long thinking this was a phase I was going through, and wishing it could be over. Now I've kind of realised its forever, and I don't feel so bad about it any more. I don't know if I would take the pill or not. In some ways, it would make life much easier.

[Dimentio]

He he thanks Nick :)
Also to you and everyone else, It does pain/upsets me when you guys half say or fully say you would take the pill and not be gay any more because i just see so much good in it and don't care who i am but like you see you would rather be straight so i have nothing wrong with that.
But to everyone who says no, I love you guys! I feel so happy that you would not take the pill and that you love who you are and that you are proud who you are and you just would not change SUCH a big thing in you, I know being gay has made mekept my virginity and i still not have had my first kiss because of it and i know it has made me a better person.
I am loving all your answers though, To me this is the best thread i made cause i love seeing all these different views coming in, Thank you all for your time :D

[StoneColdNicky]

This is also interesting Kieran. I don't think it SHOULD be such a big thing. Yes, it is a part of who we are, but I don't see it like you. I don't think it defines me. It is kind of like one little part of all the things that make me me, and not high up on the list.
