All I stated was that I wouldn't be happy if my sons slept with guys.

And if you've made that clear to them then it's unlikely they'll ever tell you if they do

By the way are you in Malta or, as profiled, Sydney, Australia?

I am I in Malta. Been here 10 days already. I wish this wind would stop blowing.

thats the wind of change

That's been the problem George.  No more.

How sad is Malta becoming, Lets remember that if we was all Gay the Human population would not exist, Malta is a mainly catholic Country and this fad won't last long, Making an unnatural act Legal does not make it right.

In your opinion maybe but it also doesn't make it wrong. Unlawful maybe but NOT wrong as long as it does no harm to anyone else.
Why does this subject make you so worked up?
If it doesn't affect you why worry about it?
Or is there something you're scared of or prefer to deny?

It would also not exist if all men were catholic priests. Does than mean you are against men being priests ?

Why do you want to celebrate an unnatural act and try to legalise it - don't think for one minute the Maltese Population in general up hold Gays marring, Marriage is a union of a Man and Women - all religions uphold this view.
No need to think that by supporting the Gay view you are somehow trying to be politicly correct - for sure your not morally correct.

Just to make it perfectly clear, before the politically correct type start throwing knifes at me, I'm entitled to my view just as you are and because some politicians legalise it does not make it correct,
What you do behind your door is your business, when you you bring it out in the open and expect others to agree to your chosen way of life, its not always going to the way you planned for.

i am not being political correct , as someone who married my husband in april  , i dont for one need your blessing

but your all relgions uphold this view point is wrong , the catholics and some protestant churches may but there are many religious organisations such as the quakers, etc who are in support of same sex -marriage .
You are of course entitled to your opinions no matter how wrong they are however as soon as you start bringing your opinon out into the open then you really must expect to be shot down for it . Firstly because you clearly have no factual basis to your argument and secondly because you seem to confuse love with sex .
Gay men and women wish to be treated like straight men and woman and wish to have the same rights , that being that their relationship stauses is recognised so that they are entitled to things like property , having a say in their partners health care and being recognised officially as next of kin ...wether you choose to agree with their relationship is besides the point , there are people who have been together for years in a loving committed relationship , who ended up being homeless or stopped from going to their loved ones funeral because they were denied rights by others .. whatever your sexuality this is wrong.

the same way you were born "straight" , gay people are born gay, its not a choice that people make .. i mean when was the last time you chose to be subjected to hate and violence ..... however people do choose a religion and for that reason religion should play no part in rule or law making.

Have your opinions but do not say yours are correct and ours are incorrect.
Who do you think you are to do that?
And, just by the way, you have brought your business out into the open.

Lets get this clear I did not start this conversation, and by your comment "Who do you think you are to do that?" is you view more valid and correct than mine, "better what stays behind your door stays behind your door"  the more you start bringing your views and lifestyles in to the open view, it's not going to get any more moral.

Maltese by birth , When was the last time you saw a same sex couple (male or female) copulating in public or forcing you to watch them ...
I saw a straight couple (male+Female) eating each other on the bus yesterday , infact they were so busy searching for each others tonsills they couldnt vacate the priority seats for a disabled man to sit down... I have never seen a gay couple doing that in public.
A same sex relationship is pretty much the same as a straight one , we shop, we cook, we watch tv , we clean , we do diy, and we also sleep .. and some couples  have sex occasonally but if we wanted you to watch we would put it on the internet .. other then that its pretty humdrum stuff .

You clearly have an over active imagination if your seeing gay men forcing their relationships or lifestyle  on you and your assuming that effeminate or based on their looks that all these people are gay .


Morals are ever changing throughout society , back before 400 ad , there were many same sex relationships and many of the roman emperors married men.  back in the middle ages it was considered socially acceptable to sleep with young children , to sell your children  and even less then 30  years ago women were still treated as if they were chattel owned by their husband .

I for one would like to know where the term gay came from? What happened to the good old description of you people as poofs?

I have to agree with MALTESE BY BIRTH even animals don't behave like them.

I think we are moving away for the subject here and starting a battle between us all, lets have some common sense and note that we all have different views, currently society appears to be accepting that a Man and Man or Women and Women can be together, but the point here is that I don't accept it and with my Maltese upbringing don't believe its morally right and I believe the majority of the Maltese population think the same.

For the record there was a restaurant in Qui-Si- Sena a part of Sliema for you experts, in the late nineties in my view was the best in Malta, run by two gays, one Maltese and the other Spanish, .the food was great.
