If homosexuality is a disease, let's all call in queer to work: "Hello. Can't work today, still queer."
-Robin Tyler

Funny? Not Funny What do you guys think?

I think its funny, but I support gays. Can not supporters still find the humor?

Meh, each to there own..

I think it's funny, and I don't care if people are gay or not. Same difference to me.

I don't like the "homosexuality is a disease" part.

LMAO it was funny whether you're a homosexual or not!!!
It's not poking FUN at gays...It's just acknowledging that they EXIST and that some people do have an issue with them. That's not insulting is it, to state what's going on in the world?

Haha I thought the quote was very funny.
I'd love it if I got to call off work if I was gay! Work STINKS!!!
Hell....if that would actually work, I'd tell everyone I'm gay just so I don't have to work!

I like its pretty funny

LOL XD
ahahah

I think its funny,

but i have alot of gay and lesbian friends, and you've got to think if thats what they truely want and like well then so be it, we choose to be straight and they choose to be gay, end of story lol.

I find it kinda funny, but its not really my type of humor I guess. I'm not much of a supporter, but thats because I follow a "It doesn't apply to me, so I'm not going to sweat it." type of philosophy. I don't care if someone's gay, its all about actions and personality with me. So if your gay and cool, then you're alright in my book.

And Gandalf was gay?

I thought that was Dumbledoor (or however you spell it) from Harry Potter.

It IS Dumbledore from Harry Potter that is gay, not Gandalf.
Silly munchkin head.

I thought the quote was hilarious, BUT it is highlighting an issue by addressing homosexuality as a "disease". Someone posted earlier that they dont like the "homosexuality is a disease" part, but the quote isnt exclusively suggesting thats the case cause it says "IF". Its basically mocking of all the people who express problems with homosexuals, or people who do actually address it as "a disease". Its is hilarious cause of those people who think like that, kinda universally making fun of their ridiculous theories! I think it's a real clever quote cause it highlights an important issue by making people laugh. So it makes more people aknowledge it...i think anyway :)
peace out

Well...by DISEASE...I don't think they mean a literal disease..
haven't you ever heard that homosexuality is a genetic mutation?
Or something like that...
Well...down syndrome is considered a disease because it's a genetic mutation...

"disease- a disordered or incorrectly functioning organ, part, structure, or system of the body resulting from the effect of genetic or developmental errors, infection, poisons, nutritional deficiency or imbalance, toxicity, or unfavorable environmental factors; illness; sickness; ailment."

Homosexuality is considered a genetic error, so it would fall under the category of a disease..

Or at least I believe.
Not an insult to anyone.

I have many diseases such as retardation.

Yeah it was funny but really any excuse not to go to work is
lol
xx

^ ahahaha. so true.

Homosexuality isnt necessarily a DISEASE! Its when a male or a female..lets say a female for arguments sake, has more male hormones than female ones, then she would be more likely to become a lesbian. Its allll about the hormones darling haha. so if you wanna say that a hormone imbalance is a DISEASE, then i guess you could call homosexuality a disease.

BUT, in the case of the quote, it seems to me that its mocking people who think like that, so whoever wrote it doesnt think its a disease.

lmao im arguing about a quote with my best friend :)

Oooo, I like it. Poking fun at the ignorant racist-ish people. (k, I know its not a race but you get what I mean) I don't support gays but I hate when people put them down because of that. It's so retarded. Gay people are usually pretty awesome anyway. ^.^

Wow.

where was i when he posted this thread?

Lmao.

it isn't intended as a mean thing. it's more poking fun at people who are anti-gay. i thought it was hilarious..but whatever. made ME laugh.

I am not gay . Although , my sister , my grandma , and my ex boyfriend of a year is now gay . I honestly , I have gay pride . I feel that gay people are real . They have no regard for what other people say because they just do not care . As far as the quote goes , there is nothing wrong with being gay .

I thought it was funny.

I'm a member of my school's GSA and several of my friends are gay or bi, so I definally support.

Love is love, no matter what sex the people are.

AMEN!
