I'd prefer a straight son, just so i can bring him for his first lapdance in Liverpool after watching the match that day, just like my father did for me.

On the other hand if he turned out gay i'd just as soon bring him for a game of bingo in The George. I fcking love bingo.

Bring him to the strip club, he'd be like:

"Gurl, where did you get those tassels! love it!! and Gurl u gotta werk it, its all about the grind into his crotch area!!!"

Also pls take me to liverpool match- those guys have got it going on!

Gerrard, Bellamy, Aguilro! (I miss macharano)

try and change him straight by getting him a job in the steel mill. that foreman julian seems like a tough guy, wears nothing but leather and has extra metal spikes for added toughness. but he also seems fair, look at how he incentivises his employess by installing that sauna in the factory.

he also gets on with my son a lot, everytime he sees him he's hugging him and playfull slapping his ass.

Not sure what I'm even doing this year. I know I'm dressing up but I may get a move on if anything is going to happen.

I'd feel rotten to my very core and i'd send him to anywhere as far away as possible if i was wealthy i'd look for a clinic.

Which is why I said "relatively small" in my above post and not "non existent". There is always one isn't there.

... and he'd never go and you'd never hear from him again. I think this would hurt you more than him in the long run.

FetchTheGin · 10-10-2011 03:24PM

Would not care in the slightest.

Frankly it is disturbing that people are willing to use a generalisation of what gay people are, despite the fact that they should know their child better than anyone else, thereby eliminating said ridiculous generalisations.

joan mack · 10-10-2011 03:25PM

I would just Just think of all the parents who that very day were receiving bad news about their son or daughters health, maybe even a terminal decease and thank my lucky stars thats all I had to deal, with, I would hope to be able to support him or her as best I could

Donal Og O Baelach · 10-10-2011 04:31PM

I think any man who has listened to the way gay people are spoken of in most manly groups (nights out, football terraces, etc), would rather their child was not subjected to that.

Put it this very un-pc way: if there was a "cure" for gay, a small harmless tablet you could give your baby to guarantee their straightness in later life, would you give it to them?

Wow a loaded question that, I would give him the pill, but what if he was small, a redhead, fat, etc. What if he didn't want to take the pill.

But there is no pill, there is no "cure", for it is not a disease. But wouldn't it be better to accept them for what they are and give them a loving accepting base so they can deal with their own problems.

I can safely say we all had to deal with some unfairness in our lives.

When and if that day comes, it would probably mean that there'd also be a cure for heterosexuality :P

To be honest, society must not give into the bullies. Instead of hoping to find a "cure" for homosexuality, we should focus on trying to find a cure for misogyny and homophobia. These are the true plagues on society, not homosexuality.

It's sad, even today in 21st century Ireland, young homosexuals (particularly males) are subject to so much mental tortures it's incredible, which in some cases even leads to tragedy. It a combination of bullying, failure to meet societal expectations and the general thought of being perceived as a failure that drives people over the edge.

The problem is not homosexuality, it's society.

I'd be disgusted, moreso with myself for the clear failings in rearing them than with the child.

I don't have an illness I don't need a 'cure'.

Wow, you're going to be a GREAT parent.

Beat the gay out of your son so you don't fail him, what a novel idea :rolleyes:

Homosexuality is not caused by the way you reared your child.

Who's beating anyone?

Prevention is better than cure. I won't bother with any of those gay little "smileys" if that's alright with you.

I know, you would berate yourself for not getting him that action man or toy gun and other manly toys.

Obviously you don't have kids. Then you would know, there are many aspects to our personalities that has NOTHING to do with rearing and sexuality is one of them.

Obvious troll is obvious.

As others have said here - why does the child have to change, and not those giving it abuse for something that doesn't affect them in the slightest? I, for one, wouldn't take any such pill myself.

The reason you'd feel rotton to your core wouldnt be anything to do with your sons sexuality... more to do with your own character.

Dudess · 10-10-2011 05:11PM

Love it - homosexuality is a result of how the child is raised. Probably the best one yet.

Indeed, real men never express views via the medium of emoticons. It's the first sign of homosexuality you know.

Your disgust should be directed at your reaction, not at your child.
