1. What do you think caused your heterosexuality?
2. When and how did you first decide you were a heterosexual?
3. Is it possible that your heterosexuality stems from a neurotic fear of others of the same sex?
4. Is it possible that your heterosexuality is just a phase you may grow out of?
5. Isn%26#039;t it possible that all you need is a good gay lover?
6. Heterosexuals have histories of failure in gay relationships. Do you think you may have turned to heterosexuality out of fear of rejection?
7. If you%26#039;ve never slept with a person of the same sex, how do you know that you wouldn%26#039;t prefer that?
8. If heterosexuality is normal, why are a disproportionate number of mental patients heterosexual?
9. To whom have you disclosed your heterosexual tendencies? How did they react?
10. Your heterosexuality doesn%26#039;t offend me so long as you don%26#039;t try to force it on me. Why do you people feel compelled to seduce others into your sexual orientation?
11. If you should choose to nurture children, would you want them to be heterosexual, knowing the problems they would face?
12. The great majority of child molesters are heterosexuals. Do you really consider it safe to expose your children to heterosexual teachers?
13. Why do you insist on being so obvious, and making a public spectacle of your heterosexuality? Can%26#039;t you just be who you are and keep it quiet?
14. How can you ever hope to become a whole person if you limit yourself to a compulsive, exclusive, heterosexual object choice, and remain unwilling to explore and develop your normal, healthy, God-given homosexual potential?
15. Heterosexuals are noted for assigning themselves and each other narrowly restricted, stereotyped sex-roles. Why do you cling to such unhealthy role playing?
16. How can you enjoy a fully satisfying sexual experience or deep emotional rapport with a person of the opposite sex, when the obvious, biological, and temperamental differences between you are so vast? How can a man understand what pleases a woman sexually, or vice versa?
17. Why do heterosexuals place so much emphasis on sex?
18. With all the societal support marriage receives, the divorce rate is spiraling. Why are there so few stable relationships among heterosexuals?
19. Shouldn%26#039;t you ask the fringe straight types, like swingers, Hell%26#039;s Angels, and Jesus freaks, to conform more? Wouldn%26#039;t that improve your image?
20. How could the human race survive if everyone were heterosexual, considering the menace of overpopulation?
21. There seem to be very few happy heterosexuals. Techniques have been developed with which you might be able to change if you really want to. Have you considered trying aversion therapy?
22. Do heterosexuals hate or distrust others of the same sex? Is that what makes them heterosexual?
23. Why are heterosexuals so promiscuous?
24. Could you really trust a heterosexual therapist to be objective and unbiased? Don%26#039;t you fear he/she might be inclined to influence you in the direction of her/his own feelings?
If you really took this questionnaire seriously, right now, you%26#039;re probably feeling a bit depressed, defensive, and maybe even a little ashamed. Well, now imagine that this were real, not just a little exercise. Rather, it was all of society, your family, your friends asking you these questions and really wanting the answers. Not only is your own knowledge of your own sexuality, feelings, and body questioned, but now you must defend a whole group of people who happen to have one similarity with you, most of whom you%26#039;ve never even meet because to fail to do so in any way, in anyone%26#039;s eyes is to say that you are *fill in the stereotype or negative image*, just like they are.
Now you have a better idea of how LGBT persons feel every day.
This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? Shelley M... if you honestly think that most of us haven%26#039;t tried desperately to change ourselves, you are sadly mistaken...
You don%26#039;t know the pain and the tears and the fear, that comes from something inside of us that CANNOT, no matter how desperately we have tried, to change.
I hate that haughty attitude... why don%26#039;t you try changing your sexual orientation? You%26#039;ll see how easy it is.
I%26#039;ve known gay guys (one of them personally) who have COMMITED SUICIDE because they couldn%26#039;t change themselves. So shut the hell up! You don%26#039;t even have a clue.
This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? gimme two points. I ROCK!

Point well taken and well put. Just remember there are many humans (hetro) that support you.
Have a good weekend!
(Sorry the not hard to answer was meant to come off ironic/humorous.... don%26#039;t think that it quite made it.)
This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? I love that... I would post each question seperately and see what kinda dirt flys... :P
edit: and to zellparis... WE were born normal... and you were born stupid... apparently...
This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? Brilliant!
Edit: If you think homosexuality is a choice then I challenge you to suddenly change your orientation.
Not so easy, is it?
This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? Read the Word of God...Believe me, nothing else matter in this world! He%26#039;s the supreme judge...
This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? All sex is a choice. If it isn%26#039;t then we have a bigger problem. Seek truth first and it will show you that if you choose to acturally engage in any kind of sex, you still must initiate your body to do so. If you cannot control this urge then you need to seek council immediatly. Calling someone%26#039;s self after their desires could be taken to extreams too. You are a child of God made in His image. The flesh does not control the mind unless you allow it to. You are suppose to be spiritual first and that manifest out through the flesh. If you let the flesh dictate who you are then suppose you are a back yard pooper. What do you call your title then? All sex is a choice.
This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? The thing is, you COULD take each of these questions seriously, if you were the sort of person who based their ideas about a whole group of people on what one or two people say or do ...
AND, it was a very amusing read!
Good on you for doing this, I really enjoyed it :-)
This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? Nice!
It really showed how homosexuals and other groups are singled out, sometimes in non-obvious ways. Some of it was just so silly I laughed.

This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? A hetrosexual point of view about a homosexualality.
HOMOSEXUAL CONDUCT WAS %26quot;A CAPITAL CRIME%26quot; UNDER THE LAW OF MOSES
I am grateful that we are no longer under the Law of Moses, with its extremely harsh punishments (though under the New Covenant much harsher punishments for similar crimes unrepented of are simply delayed till the Day of Judgment, He 10:26-31). But as Paul wrote to the Romans:
What can we learn from the Law about God%26#039;s view of homosexual conduct? In Leviticus, we read:
%26quot;You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.%26quot; (Lev 18:22)
Can it be any clearer? Homosexual conduct is %26quot;an abomination%26quot; to the Lord! Together with %26quot;bestiality%26quot; (Lev 18:23) it was one of the sins that justified God in giving the land of Canaan to the Israelites, for the previous occupants were guilty of such sins (Lev 18:24-25). Also, the Israelites were warned that if they engaged in the same kind of sins, they too would be %26quot;vomited out%26quot; of the land (Lev 18:26-30).
More is said later in the book of Leviticus...
%26quot;If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.%26quot; (Lev 20:13)
Again, I stress that according to the New Testament we are not under the Law of Moses; but what we learn here is that while the Law was in effect, without question homosexuality was clearly a grave offense, even worthy of death!
But what about the New Testament? What does it say?
THE NEW TESTAMENT IS CLEAR IN ITS CONDEMNATION OF HOMOSEXUAL CONDUCT
To the church of God which was at Corinth, Paul wrote:
%26quot;Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.%26quot; (1 Co 6:9-10)
In this passage, Paul uses two terms that are translated above as %26quot;homosexuals%26quot; and %26quot;sodomites.%26quot; The first term, translated %26quot;homosexuals%26quot; (%26quot;effeminate%26quot; in the KJV) is %26quot;malakos%26quot;, and is defined as:
%26quot;effeminate, of a catamite, a male who submits his body to unnatural lewdness%26quot; (THAYER)
The word translated as %26quot;sodomites%26quot; (%26quot;abusers of themselves with mankind%26quot; in the KJV) is arsenokoitai, and is defined as:
%26quot;one who lies with a male as with a female, a sodomite%26quot; (THAYER)
Paul%26#039;s warning not to be deceived is very appropriate even today, for some homosexual theologians would have us believe that Paul was only condemning male prostitution. Whereas the first word (malakos) does properly speak of a male prostitute, the second word (arsenokoitai) describes any sort of homosexual conduct. Despite such efforts to twist the Scriptures and deceive many, the Word of God is clear: those who continue to engage in homosexuality will not inherit the kingdom of God!
[The next verse (1 Co 6:11) gives great hope, however, for anyone trapped in the sin of homosexuality, which we shall examine more closely in a later lesson.]
Paul also uses the word %26quot;arsenokoitai%26quot; (the generic term for homosexual conduct) as an example of that which is:
%26quot;...contrary to sound doctrine, according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed to my trust.%26quot; (1 Ti 1:10-11)
Since the %26quot;sound doctrine%26quot; of the gospel of Christ condemns even sexual relations between unmarried heterosexuals, it should not be hard to understand that sex between unmarried homosexuals is wrong as well! As for %26quot;married%26quot; homosexuals, the institution of marriage which was begun and defined by God only allows for sex between a man and a woman (cf. Gen 2:24; Mt 19:4-6).
The %26quot;classic%26quot; passage which deals with the sin of homosexual conduct is that of Ro 1:18-28. In this passage, Paul discusses the wrath of God which is directed toward those who do not honor God:
%26quot;For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungod- liness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
%26quot;because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.
%26quot;For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,
%26quot;because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
%26quot;Professing to be wise, they became fools,
%26quot;and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man--and birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things.%26quot;
(Ro 1:18-23)
The righteous indignation of God is directed toward those who reject the clear evidence of God%26#039;s existence and power as revealed in nature, and if religious at all, make God over into an image of their own choosing. Whereas today we are too %26quot;sophisticated%26quot; to fall for thinking that God is like a graven image, there is ever the tendency to %26quot;recreate God in our own image,%26quot; so that He thinks like us, and acts like us (one would do well to read Isa 55:8,9).
%26quot;Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.%26quot; (Ro 1:24-25)
Rather than bringing about the Judgment Day, or striking them down with a bolt out of the sky, God has expressed His righteous indignation by %26quot;giving them up%26quot; to moral uncleanness. In other words, those who are not willing to honor God as God are simply allowed to degenerate into moral decay!
%26quot;For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.%26quot; (Ro 1:26)
Here is a strong allusion to lesbianism, where women cease to appreciate that their bodies are naturally designed physically for sex with men and for procreation, and who think of %26quot;our bodies, ourselves%26quot; solely as instruments of %26quot;vile passions%26quot; for one another.
In regards to men whom God has %26quot;given up%26quot; to uncleanness, Paul writes:
%26quot;Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.%26quot; (Ro 1:27)
In similar fashion, many of those men who have been %26quot;given up%26quot; by God to uncleanness eventually leave the %26quot;natural use of the woman%26quot; and turn to other men to fulfill their lustful desires. As Paul reiterates in the next verse:
%26quot;And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;%26quot; (Ro 1:28)
Three times in this section we find the expression %26quot;God gave them up (over)%26quot; (Ro 1:24,26,28). The point is clear: when people choose to reject God, or to recreate Him in their own image, God %26quot;gives them up%26quot; to %26quot;go their own way.%26quot; Unrestrained by God in any way, they gravitate into increasing levels of immorality! For some, it involves hetero- sexual immorality, such as pre-marital sex or adultery. But for others, it includes homosexuality and lesbianism.
And what is the consequence of such behavior? The apostle Paul referred to such people as:
%26quot;...receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.%26quot; (Ro 1:27)
An illusion to sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS? We cannot say for certain, but none can dispute that those who are willing to follow God%26#039;s Word as to sexual conduct have less to fear about STD%26#039;s than those who choose to disregard Him!
Conclusion
God%26#039;s basic principles of righteousness have remained constant through out the different periods of Bible history. For example, adultery has always been condemned by God. Likewise, we have seen that homosexuality has been identified as:
A %26quot;grievous sin%26quot; in the times of the Patriarchs
An %26quot;abomination%26quot; in the Law of Moses
%26quot;Shameful,%26quot; indicative of %26quot;a debased mind,%26quot; and %26quot;contrary to sound doctrine, according to the glorious gospel%26quot; of Jesus Christ
I can understand that those who do not believe in God or who do not accept the Bible as the Word of God would strongly disagree with such an evaluation of homosexuality. But I fear that only those with %26quot;hardened hearts%26quot; would profess to believe the Bible to be God%26#039;s Word and still approve of homosexuality as an alternative lifestyle that has God%26#039;s blessings.
May those who profess to accept the Bible as the last word never hesitate to accept what it says, no matter how %26quot;politically incorrect%26quot; our society might say it is.
Only God is the judge of both hetrosexuals and homosexuals.No person is without sin. If everyone would tend to their own sins maybe the world would not be as it is today?
Personally,it is not my concern whether you are homosexual or hetrosexual.Whether you believe in God or not. Whether you go to heaven or hell is your choice,no one can make that choice for you.I don%26#039;t understand why something that should be done in private has become so public.
This is how Lgbt feel, please read from a homosexual pointo of view about a heterosexual? It%26#039;s almost amusing to see how homosexuals try to twist reality around to justify themselves. If I had to go through life fighting the status quo like that, I believe I%26#039;d do my damnedest to change MYSELF, first! But instead of doing that, gays are determined to go against the grain of society, and prefer to commit themselves to their rejection and defiance of what is socially acceptable. They see everything in REVERSE of how it really IS, as evidenced here!
