What're your questions for the world?

EXTRA INFO ABOUT THE SITE:

Hey! This blog is about asking questions that're on my mind or that people may ask me. These are not little questions really and they can have multiple answers so feel free to answer them as you see fit. The whole point of the site is to have people think about the world and the way things are. If you don't agree with something I've said tell me why with a comment (you have to have a google account), but please don't use that as a way to be obnoxious. Everything is pretty much up in the air when it comes to what you think and how you feel about something so I can't really set down any guidelines other than don't be too judgmental of another comment or of something I may have said.

Stay open-minded and hear people out. =]

Hope you enjoy and don't criticize what I'm trying to say too harshly. Although of course I'm open to criticism and debates. =]

Why: Do We Cry Tears?

       Tears come with many different emotions.

       Anger- When you're so mad at someone or something, and that rage causes you to produce tears that you don't want but get anyway.
      Sadness- When you're hurting or possibly hurt someone else and that depression forms tears in your eyes that you can't control.
       Joy- When you're happy to such an extreme that tears slide down your face without you even really realizing it.

       My question is, why tears? Why does this watery fluid come from our eyes in these emotional states? I'm sure there's a scientific reason, but when you think about it, doesn't it seem like too much for tears to be everywhere?

       Mostly, tears are taken as a sign of weakness, fear, and sadness, yet we cry when we're happy. What's up with that? We cry over everything. Are we as human beings suppose to be portrayed as such weak mammals? Do you see other animals crying without being in pain? And then when they do "cry" there aren't tears, there are just a lot of yelping. Why're we such an emotional species?

       Maybe it's just me thinking that we should be stronger than this, or maybe it's just the fact that I watch too much "Animal Planet." Either way, this is my thinking on our tears. One day we're all gonna stop crying, we're gonna sick of it all, and we'll come away a stronger species. End of story.

       But hey, you tell me...Why?

(Honestly!) Why: Don't Parents Accept Their Kids Being Gay? (Asked By Poof)

       Parents are the most protective people in the world, well at least the good parents are. They feel as though they have to protect their kids from everything. Shield them from the world itself. Sometimes though, in doing so, they fail to realize that a child, teen, or young adult, is gonna branch out on their own eventually and find their own interests. A lot of people these days are religious. Religious parents never want their children to be gay. They have the mind set of "If my child's gay they're going to burn in hell." I've always wondered if they ever took the time to think to themselves "My child has been exposed to all the religiousness I've been exposed to, have they thought about the possible consequences?" Maybe if they thought about that they'd realize that a lot the time we do. 

        Now, we all know about the religious parents. They fear for our souls. What is to become of us after death for being gay. But then, there's also the major homo-phobes. The parents who talk about gay people day in and day out never giving gay people a chance at being liked. Gays with parents like that never really can get through to them. Everything a gay is in that parent's mind is filth, disgust, and wrong. There's no accepting to them, there's just getting rid of. 

        My point is, parents can't accept what they're not open to. The two biggest examples are above. And sometimes even when they do accept it, they don't like it. It's not fair. I have a lot of experience with that. It hurts more than they know, but they think the hurt of us being gay is worse. And really who are we to tell them it's not? 

        But you tell me world...why can't they accept us?

How: Are People Suppose To Be?

       How are people suppose to be? What exactly is the social standard for living your life? WHAT A QUESTION! Hmm, why didn't I think of this before? 

       1st: Let's ask ourselves how we INDIVIDUALLY think people should be. 
       2nd: Let's ask ourselves how everyone else SEES US.
       3rd: Think about the DIFFERENCES and the SIMILARITES.

       With all of that on you're mind....think about how selfish you are and how selfish the world is as a whole. Think about how people judge you and try to change you. Think about how people don't accept what they don't understand. Think about religions and schools and all kinds of beliefs. 

       There is NO way to be! There is the just the way you ARE. And nothing's wrong with that. Hitler wanted the perfect world..Did he get it? No, of course not. If he got his way our population would be close to none by now, if not none already!

       If you wouldn't change for someone why would change for society itself? Is that fair to you? No...Not at all. For every gay person out there I'd just like to say, you're a great example of what I'm talking about. If the world had their way we wouldn't be here. There'd be no such thing as GAY PRIDE. Thing is we don't think about how people WANT us to be. We think about how WE WANT TO BE and we stick with it.

       Like I said...There's is no one every person is suppose to be. It's about how you want to be. That's just me though...You tell me. How are people suppose to be?
