I'm not uncomfortable and I'm almost 40 so I have plenty of exposure to all sorts of shit in life. I'm not terribly worried about my reaction since I have the capacity to recognize not to act negatively. I just wanted to know if others got the same reactions, that's all.
Well, here's the thing. You're associating uncomfortable with negative. It doesn't have to be negative...but you're most definitely not fully comfortable with it...whether its understanding it or...whatever....you' inability to give gay or interracial relationship the same personal value is a level of discomfort whether you want to admit that to yourself or not.....and what I'm telling you is that its OK. It doesn't make you a bad person. Your acknowledgement of knowing that you don't fully understand these relationships fully but are accepting of them is not only very human of you but advanced thinking. I don't understand why transgendered people feel they are the opposite gender even though their anatomy suggests very differently...I just don't get it....but who am I to judge. It baffles me...but hey...they aren't hurting anyone so...good for them. At least they understand themselves so I'm not gonna judge em.
Is it normal to not take gay or interracial couples seriously?
