>>>>>If I am reading you correctly, that you have a gay son, then that does alter my perception of you, yes. If there is a God, this must be one of His little pranks. By your own words you still consider it abnormal, make gay jokes, and say you wouldn't tolerate it in your home. (That would be his home, too, wouldn't it?) And repeat that homosexuals are not entitled to marriage. I'm not going to go on arguing with you, I just find your position even more curious now.

I've been divorced for 10 years now, and while my sons were staying with me last summer, I had noone over to the apartment while they were here. It works both ways in my mind. Uncomfortability goes both ways....

>>>Fair enough. But your daughter may marry some day and then you'll allow her and her husband to share a room. (For all I know, you'll allow it sooner in the relationship.) You seem to be saying that your son will never be able to do that, even when he finds someone he wants to spend the rest of his life with. As I said in another message, I find that terribly sad.

>>What is really 'terribly sad', imho, is some people having demeanor to lecture others what they should do in their own homes and how they must interact with kids. It just shows that real liberals are not satisfied with own lifestyle, they want pushing it down the throat of other people. In other words, conservatives respect any house autonomy; liberals want to have any house liberal.

>ehh.... aren't you describing what the religious right is doing? Why are they pushing their believes down our throats when it comes to topics like gay marriage, abortion and eutnesia ?

>Open your eyes edward... your glasses are coloured !

I kindly advise you to understand the topic before promoting your 'right-winger' credentials. The topic was about house behavior rules. Either you believe that gay marriage, abortion and/or euthanasia should be part of these rules, i.e. that they are in-house events or you don't know what topic was discussied.
