think about this.... You meet someone online and talk and talk and talk and because of distance you never meet. The two people consider themselves "in a relationship" and tell all of their friends they are "attached" Do you think that some of the people who do this may be gay and are afraid to come out of the closet and do this so that people will leave them alone, or that they then don't have to deal with their own issues? no, i don't think that they are gay and/or have issues (at least not in all cases). for various reasons (none of which have been mentioned), it took us a few months of talking before we were actually able to meet. i did feel very attached before we met and if someone has my attention and interest in that way, i find it very hard to continue dating other men. but you met and continue to meet that's different... I'm talking about the ones who never meet.... |

Actually, I think the Internet has given a RISE to the outlet available to anyone to meet people, especially gays and lesbians. We've all seen how there's been an escalation of pedophilia and Dateline NBC wouldn't exist if it wasn't for the Internet. It's not that people are suddenly becoming pedophiles, they always were, it's just that there's more accessibility to the content that drives pedophiles. I think the Internet has opened a door to gays and lesbians more so than heterosexual people- not dreamed of 15 years ago. The very thing that empowers so many guys to say things to women they would NEVER say "in real life" ("Hey sexy, I wanna eat you out", "How big are your tits?", etc), the anonymous factor, helps gays and lesbians who wouldn't ordinarily venture out of their self-wrapped (and sometimes necessary) security blanket. As with anything in life, there's pros and cons. You have to take the good with the bad. Hopefully people are still cautious, yet free to be more of who they are, and to show it to whomever they choose. -Nicki PS: Lily, very interesting topic! |
