First off: It may only be one aspect of you, but it's a CORE aspect that colors most of your perceptions. Think about straight people and how they're CONSTANTLY talking about their spouses and children and such. Straight people don't NOTICE it because it's so normal for them. You are hyper-aware of a gay person

But you clearly do care. Because you don't want to hear about it.

You have to understand the fear of rejection, the internal self-loathing programmed by society, the risk they're taking, etc. Yeah, it's really difficult for a lot of people. For many, it took them years to come to grips with it. For them to see you just shrug off that momentous moment in their life can be

Clearly we need a straight-person's guide to a gay person's life and coming out. To explain things like "why people feel the need to come out at all, I don't care!", etc... if the comments here are any indication. There's a lot of cluelessness (naivete, not necessarily malignant) here, which sorta surprises me.

Easy for you to say. You don't have to risk relationships with family, friends, or your job/livelihood. Gay people don't hide it because they WANT to. They do it for a matter of survival. There are still MANY places where being 'out' can get you killed.

I'm not sure if you're being purposefully dense, or are just generally dense.

Agreeing with Lydecker again... the first time a gay person says "I'm gay" publicly is a very difficult moment for a lot of people. And a very important one. While an adult who has been out a while can just live their life and expect others to "get a clue", a closeted person really NEEDS to take the step of becoming

To be fair, though, it's EASY for you to not care who knows if you're straight, because there's no stigma or consequence to that thought. It is the default position. Everyone just assumes you're straight until proven otherwise somehow. There's never any conflict between people's assumptions about you in this area,

Because engaging in all those things mentioned *IS* coming out. Coming out doesn't have to be standing on a table, waving a flag, and saying "I LIKE TO SUCK COCK!" through a megaphone. Introducing someone to your same-sex partner is coming out. ANY time you inform someone you're not straight, you're coming out.

What's REALLY pathetic is the pathological projection that all right-wing nut jobs seem to engage in, accusing others of what they themselves do... Looking at actual reality, it's the RIGHT WING that never wants to take ANY responsibility for any of the problems our country is currently facing... most of which they

It's relevant in one way, that you SHOULD care about: and that is KNOWING that they are gay, you can use correct pronouns, NOT try to pair them up with female friends, etc. I.e. you can treat them just as you would anyone else, and do so appropriately, with correct gender pronouns, etc. You can be respectful of

Straight people let others know they're straight EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY. They talk about their wives and kids, have pictures of their family on their desks at work, hold hands and kiss in public, go on dates, go out in public with their partners, talk about their attractions, all NON STOP.

How would you like having to go through life pretending to be gay, hiding your opposite-sex attraction, sneaking around to meet your opposite-sex lover, being constantly afraid of being "Found out"? How do you think you'd feel having to completely live a lie, to present one face to the world that is just a mask, an

The assumption that all homosexuals engage in anal sex is part of your problem. The assumption that no heterosexuals engage in anal sex is also part of it. The assumption that there's a correlation between sexual orientation and anal sex is wrong.

No. Sorry. Wrong. Nice try though. Get a clue.

Look, if you can't take the time to just look at actual facts and events and policies and history, it's a waste of time trying to have a conversation. I've been watching politics closely now for nearly 30 years. Trust me, a simple examination of reality will show you one party is FAR FAR worse than the other, so

The MOST disgusting thing you can do to scrambled eggs (or omelets) is to let them sit so long at such a high heat that they actually start to get brown. Once there's the slightest bit of brown on the egg... it's RUINED. It goes from delicious to disgusting in nothing flat.

Again, you've got things completely wrong and backwards. CONSERVATIVES are always the one pointing fingers of blame at anyone but themselves, no matter how obvious it is their fault. You seem pretty willfully blind to the basic facts, and/or are fixated on just one specific issue ... missing the forest for the only

Would love to know more about actual game-play... as well as estimated release date and platforms :-) #impatient

Honestly, I'd like to see more of this. Fallout3+DLCs, Borderlands and Borderlands2 + DLCs, Skyrim... there are games I think I'd enjoy playing again if they were polished up and took advantage of the new next-gen platforms (i.e. new more and better voice commands for xbox one). Especially if things like Fallout3
