    Its pretty clear with that explanation I think.

    If you want to be accepted, how bout you do some accepting.

    I Kevin, your God, and friendly kid, have spoken.

    Well its not that I didn't read the posts, I just didnt look at all the pictures. She is a hypocrite, and its pretty obvious, but i'm not bitter, and I just want people to understand that sometimes its better to try and educate and fail.

    Posting on forums whereby you don't give the other party the oppurtunity to share his perspective is just inappropriate.

    Well, I hate to sound repetitive, and god forbid cliche, but here it goes.

    You are a hypocrite, in my humble opinion because you're quite like the person who has caused such a great amount of stress to you.

    What do I mean by this?

    You and this gentleman both hold opinions that are basically polar opposites, but what you have in common is the fact that you both stay true to what you know. He doesn't deny this, you however think the way he is acting is inappropriate, which albeit, it is, but to him, it might be an expression of everything he knows. What does this mean to you? Well everything, because by not allowing him to share his point of view, and express who he is, you are basically telling him to forget who he is, and to share your view of things, because you are right, which neither of you really are.

    The hypocrisy stems from the fact that you think the world should accept gays, to form this level of equality because it is becoming a norm within the grand scheme of things, which I will agree with you, it is. Being gay is very common, but that doesn't mean people, like yourself, also have their opinions to share, which have also come from years of tolerance and structure within a close-knit community of people. But what goes wrong in this particular argument or rant of yours is that his say doesn't seem to matter, his opinion means nothing, his belief has no value.

    If you want acceptance, you must promote acceptance, not only for gays, but for all people.

    Thank you,

    Kevin.

    It's stupid that you say people should accept you when you won't accept others.
    But personally, I find your point of view right.
    It's your argument that is flawed.

    Thats subtext, and not my point. I've addressed what he's said is in fact wrong. But that is my opinion, and what you may find offensive isn't universal.

    This is something called Moral Relativism, which in and of itself isnt a prominent philosophy, but it works here.

    I think its important to understand that there are different beliefs and different ways of life. Until you can understand who this person is, and what his standard of living is, the original poster shouldn't have made any post of any kind. Without both sides of the story, this is all just a bunch of fluff.

    I believe if you had being there for the entire conversation you would have a different opinion, but I cannot change that. I'm not saying his opinion is wrong, I just think (as I've said before) it's rather arrogant and racist (then again, that is just my opinion). Why shouldn't gay/coloured people be allowed onto a chat site? From the screenshots I can understand why you would believe this, but that isn't the entire debate. As for the rest of it, I was merely 1 of 7 people involved. So it isn't as if I was the only person with that opinion. Also, could someone find out how exactly a name like ‘LesbianGhost’ is asking for ‘cyber’ In reply to Tokyo's comment, I am not asking for acceptance. Why would I need it on an internet chat site? It is hardly going to affect me for the rest of my life.

    It certainly affected you enough to write about it here.
