I have an identical twin brother who is gay. I am not gay. I have a girlfriend that I've been with for three and a half years and we've "done the deed" so I [i]know[/i] I'm not gay, in case anybody asks. There's no way I'm switching teams.
He came out last year. It was a struggle for him because he didn't want to be gay. Eventually he broke down and felt like it was right and started telling people. Now he has a boyfriend that he's been with for almost a year now and they are both very happy.
I accept him. I have no problems with it. Maybe this has something to say about the "born this way" or "it's a choice" arguments, I'm not interested at this point. Anyway, I don't really know what I'm trying to achieve with this thread. You can ask me anything or have some stupid debate I guess.
If you want to have a debate I'm going to add that my Christian parents know and they accept him. This'll be fun.
Edit: You guys are being surprisingly accepting and supportive. Good on you!
Edit 2 Electric Boogaloo: Who bumped this?
Edit 3: Why does this keep getting bumped every few days? I didn't think this was that interesting.
Edit 4: This topic is no longer interesting. Stop bumping it! I [u]will not[/u] send you a picture of my face. Why do you even care?

I don't really care if he's gay, so long as he's happy. To be honest, I know what you mean when you mention the choice versus born with it argument. Everyone exists on a spectrum, as some people are very homosexual and are born with it, but others can choose or are very heterosexual. Either way, we all have a little bit of gay in us. Either way, I don't care. Sexuality is a very complicated thing that we don't yet fully understand. It's best we admit we don't know everything about it, and acknowledge that everyone's different, then to jump to blind conclusions and base your thinking on assumptions. Anyway, good luck to you man, and your brother.
