No. c) Is your home family (parents and siblings) a large family, or small? Small, two parents and me and my sister. d) Would you say your family is more tolerant of different sexual orientations, or more homophobic? Tolerant. e) Is there anyone in your family, or among old friends, who is gay/bi/lesbian/trans? A nephew of mine is gay. f) If yes, have you ever felt threatened by their sexuality? No, he's cool. g) Have you ever questioned your own sexuality? Sometimes, but not anymore. 3. Present Time a) Are there any homo/bi/transexuals in your life right now? Yes. b) If yes, how do they relate to you? (Close friends, acquaintances, family, etc?) My nephew. c) Hypothetically, if your best friend came out to you as gay/bi/les/trans, how would you react? Would talk to him about it and act towards him like I always do. d) How do you think your family would react if they found out they had a gay child/sibling? My aunt and uncle knew it since my nephew was young so it wasn't that big of a shock. I think the rest of my family would not make that big of a fuss about it. e) Is homophobia present in your school and/or work place? Some people at my school are a bit homophobic but I'd say 80% isn't. 4. Opinions/Deeper thinking a) What would you say the cause of homosexuality is? It's in the genes. b) Do you believe it is something that can be cured, like a disease; a disorder that can’t be cured, but can be slowed down; a genetic imbalance; a choice; or something else?: Why does it have to be cured? I mean, if they use the bible as an excuse, God created men. They're saying god made mistakes by creating gay people. c) What is your opinion on gay marraige and/or adoption by gay couples? I'm fine with gay marriages but I'm not sure about adoption. I'd worry about the kid being bullied because he has two dads/mothers. Not saying that gay couples can't raise children though. d) Why do you think there is so much homophobia in the world? (Religion, culture, tradition, health, etc?) Religion and culture. e) Why did you choose take this survey? Because I feel like I helped someone. |

(Um...Ashkenazi Jew?) 2. History a) Did you grow up in a large city, small city, large town, small town, rural area, or other? (If other, please specify) Small city b) Did you grow up with a religious family? No c) Is your home family (parents and siblings) a large family, or small? Small (one sibling, both parents) d) Would you say your family is more tolerant of different sexual orientations, or more homophobic? Tolerant e) Is there anyone in your family, or among old friends, who is gay/bi/lesbian/trans? I think my grandpa might be and I'm sure some distant cousins f) If yes, have you ever felt threatened by their sexuality? No g) Have you ever questioned your own sexuality? Yes 3. Present Time a) Are there any homo/bi/transexuals in your life right now? A friend of mine is transsexual, I believe. We never talked about it, though. I'm sure there are others, but none I know of. b) If yes, how do they relate to you? (Close friends, acquaintances, family, etc?) Friend. c) Hypothetically, if your best friend came out to you as gay/bi/les/trans, how would you react? I don't know. d) How do you think your family would react if they found out they had a gay child/sibling? I think they'd try not to care. e) Is homophobia present in your school and/or work place? Not particularly. My school makes a point to be open to these things, though. 4. Opinions/Deeper thinking a) What would you say the cause of homosexuality is? I can't say as I'm not a geneticist or doctor or anthropologist or whatever. As far as I'm aware, the current scientific consensus is that it's mostly genetic, so I've got to believe that. b) Do you believe it is something that can be cured, like a disease; a disorder that can’t be cured, but can be slowed down; a genetic imbalance; a choice; or something else? As far as I'm aware, it's been shown that it can't be cured, and it's not a choice. I don't know how I'm supposed to figure something like this out on my own, though. c) What is your opinion on gay marriage and/or adoption by gay couples? Neither are a problem for me, by any means. Also as far as I'm aware, it's been shown that gay couples aren't worse as parents. d) Why do you think there is so much homophobia in the world? (Religion, culture, tradition, health, etc?) Sure, all of those. I wouldn't doubt it has a deeper instinctual type thing too. I remember reading something about that a while back, but I don't remember specifics. e) Why did you choose take this survey? It was the cool thing to do.

History a) Did you grow up in a large city, small city, large town, small town, rural area, or other? (If other, please specify): Large town (suburban, but.. kinda large) b) Did you grow up with a religious family? Immediate family, no. c) Is your home family (parents and siblings) a large family, or small? Small (4) d) Would you say your family is more tolerant of different sexual orientations, or more homophobic? Tolerant e) Is there anyone in your family, or among old friends, who is gay/bi/lesbian/trans? No f) If yes, have you ever felt threatened by their sexuality? - g) Have you ever questioned your own sexuality? I've thought about it, and determined that I am indeed straight. 3. Present Time a) Are there any homo/bi/transexuals in your life right now? Yes, quite a few of my friends are homosexual or bisexual. b) If yes, how do they relate to you? (Close friends, acquaintances, family, etc?) Close friends c) Hypothetically, if your best friend came out to you as gay/bi/les/trans, how would you react? I'd say it wouldn't change anything. d) How do you think your family would react if they found out they had a gay child/sibling? I don't think they'd have a negative reaction. Or care either way, really. e) Is homophobia present in your school and/or work place? Yes, the majority of people at my school seem to hate homosexuals for whatever reason. 4. Opinions/Deeper thinking a) What would you say the cause of homosexuality is? No idea. Could be something random in the genetic makeup b) Do you believe it is something that can be cured, like a disease; a disorder that can’t be cured, but can be slowed down; a genetic imbalance; a choice; or something else? I suppose it can be brainwashed out of someone, like any mental trait. Cured isn't the word I'd choose, though. c) What is your opinion on gay marraige and/or adoption by gay couples? Fine by me. d) Why do you think there is so much homophobia in the world? (Religion, culture, tradition, health, etc?): Gay is different, and people can't explain it. The bible briefly mentions it, so of course that creates a lot of homophobia (even though the bible also says things about loving everyone no matter what. but, eh.) e) Why did you choose take this survey? I dunno. Wanted to establish my opinion on the matter.

Sexuality Survey
This is a personal project of mine: to find out how tolerant the modern world is of sexuality. The following questions are not meant to put any individual 'on the spot', but merely to see how open-minded or how traditional you guys are. Answer only the questions you feel comfortable answering. 1. General - What is... a) Your first name: Nipunn b) Your country and province/state (if applicable): Massachusetts c) Your age: 16 d) Your gender: Male e) Your sexuality: Straight f) Your religion: Hinduism g) Your ethnicity: Indian 2. History a) Did you grow up in a large city, small city, large town, small town, rural area, or other? (If other, please specify) I grew up in a small town suburb of Boston. I guess I was born in Dubai, UAE, but I moved over to the US when I was 2. I don't remember anything from before I moved here, so its safe to say I grew up here. b) Did you grow up with a religious family? Yes. Very Yes. c) Is your home family (parents and siblings) a large family, or small? Small. I'm an only child. It's just my parents and me. d) Would you say your family is more tolerant of different sexual orientations, or more homophobic? We don't really discuss it. My dad isn't very tolerant, but my mom is. e) Is there anyone in your family, or among old friends, who is gay/bi/lesbian/trans? Not that I know of f) If yes, have you ever felt threatened by their sexuality? Not Applicable but no g) Have you ever questioned your own sexuality? No 3. Present Time a) Are there any homo/bi/transexuals in your life right now? Yeah, I have a good friend who's gay. b) If yes, how do they relate to you? (Close friends, acquaintances, family, etc?) He's a good friend. We've been friends since 4th grade. He came out in 6th. c) Hypothetically, if your best friend came out to you as gay/bi/les/trans, how would you react? I don't really rank my friends, so I don't have a 'best friend', but one of my good friends did come out as gay back in 6th grade. I thought it was weird for a while, but after like a week, I forgot and stopped caring. People started to wonder if I was gay, but I defended myself well and cleared up the confusion. d) How do you think your family would react if they found out they had a gay child/sibling? They would be extremely confused. Probably go into denial. e) Is homophobia present in your school and/or work place? Not really 4. Opinions/Deeper thinking a) What would you say the cause of homosexuality is? I would think it is mostly upbringing, more than some a gene. b) Do you believe it is something that can be cured, like a disease; a disorder that can’t be cured, but can be slowed down; a genetic imbalance; a choice; or something else? I think that homosexuality is more of a choice than a disease. Also, you can't cure someone if nothing is wrong. I don't think there would be a 'cure' for homosexuality because of how its a choice. If someone is gay, they would not want to be straight. No "cure" would change that. c) What is your opinion on gay marraige and/or adoption by gay couples? In terms of being a political association, gay marriage seems reasonable. As a union between a man and woman, marriage is a religious association meant to bring together two people to have babies (bluntly). As a political union, it entails nothing of the sort, so gay marriage is fine by that. d) Why do you think there is so much homophobia in the world? (Religion, culture, tradition, health, etc?) People are scared of other people who are different. They fear homosexual acts because they seem so... appalling. If you think about it, even sexual acts would seem appalling if we didn't have sex drives. e) Why did you choose take this survey? better than doing my history project!

History a) Did you grow up in a large city, small city, large town, small town, rural area, or other? (If other, please specify) Small town b) Did you grow up with a religious family? Not that religious. We went to church almost every sunday when I was a kid, but we don't anymore. c) Is your home family (parents and siblings) a large family, or small? Small d) Would you say your family is more tolerant of different sexual orientations, or more homophobic? More tolerant e) Is there anyone in your family, or among old friends, who is gay/bi/lesbian/trans? No f) If yes, have you ever felt threatened by their sexuality? No. g) Have you ever questioned your own sexuality? No. 3. Present Time a) Are there any homo/bi/transexuals in your life right now? Yep b) If yes, how do they relate to you? (Close friends, acquaintances, family, etc?) Friends c) Hypothetically, if your best friend came out to you as gay/bi/les/trans, how would you react? Congratulate them for having the courage to come out, but not much would change. d) How do you think your family would react if they found out they had a gay child/sibling? Surprised, and probably wouldn't believe it. e) Is homophobia present in your school and/or work place? Yes 4. Opinions/Deeper thinking a) What would you say the cause of homosexuality is? From reading a lot of different perspectives, i lean more towards the side of it being a sort of genetic mutation. b) Do you believe it is something that can be cured, like a disease; a disorder that can’t be cured, but can be slowed down; a genetic imbalance; a choice; or something else? I don't think it can be cured. I believe it's some kind of genetic imbalance. c) What is your opinion on gay marraige and/or adoption by gay couples? I support it. d) Why do you think there is so much homophobia in the world? (Religion, culture, tradition, health, etc?) I think that since it's becoming more widely tolerated and accepted, people are more eager and/or willing to come out. I actually strongly believe that there has always been homosexuality, but before now people were too afraid to come out because they were afraid of the consequences. e) Why did you choose take this survey? I like taking surveys, and I like to express my opinions on these types of issues.

Yes, many kids at school are bi, but I haven't seen\heard any of just gay or les. 4. Opinions/Deeper thinking a) What would you say the cause of homosexuality is? I would say the liking of ones own self in another person with the same features. b) Do you believe it is something that can be cured, like a disease; a disorder that can’t be cured, but can be slowed down; a genetic imbalance; a choice; or something else? Seeing\hearing stories on tv, it could be cured bylearning what is bad about it, but I'd rather not find one because it is there own choice. c) What is your opinion on gay marraige and/or adoption by gay couples? I don't truely care if they'd get maried or adopt, people are people. d) Why do you think there is so much homophobia in the world? (Religion, culture, tradition, health, etc?) Probably culture and tradition, if your parents were homosexual, the child bears greater chances to follow. e) Why did you choose take this survey? It's my first post ^_^ |

History a) Did you grow up in a large city, small city, large town, small town, rural area, or other? (If other, please specify) My 18 childhood years were spent in different states and settings. Too many to list. b) Did you grow up with a religious family? No. c) Is your home family (parents and siblings) a large family, or small? Small: currently it's just me and my mom in a house; my older sister is at Southern Cal, and my father is God-Knows-Where... d) Would you say your family is more tolerant of different sexual orientations, or more homophobic? I never really posed the question, but I'd say tolerant, as I'm autistic. e) Is there anyone in your family, or among old friends, who is gay/bi/lesbian/trans? Not my family, but I had numerous friends and classmates who were. f) If yes, have you ever felt threatened by their sexuality? Just once, when a kid wanted to jack it in front of me; I said go to the bathroom, and he said it was too dirty. I almost threw up... but ever since it's been okay with me. g) Have you ever questioned your own sexuality? Many a time, but I know now that I'm straight for sure. 3. Present Time a) Are there any homo/bi/transexuals in your life right now? Not right now. b) If yes, how do they relate to you? (Close friends, acquaintances, family, etc?)

- What is... a) Your first name: Veronica b) Your country and province/state (if applicable):Canada, New Brunswick c) Your age:24 d) Your gender:f e) Your sexuality:straight f) Your religion: dunno g) Your ethnicity:caucasian 2. History a) Did you grow up in a large city, small city, large town, small town, rural area, or other? (If other, please specify) city size 50,000 b) Did you grow up with a religious family? mom religious, dad not c) Is your home family (parents and siblings) a large family, or small? 2 parents, 2 siblings d) Would you say your family is more tolerant of different sexual orientations, or more homophobic? more tolerant (I think/hope) e) Is there anyone in your family, or among old friends, who is gay/bi/lesbian/trans? umm, not that I know of, not anyone who I was ever really close to. f) If yes, have you ever felt threatened by their sexuality? g) Have you ever questioned your own sexuality? Not really. I suppose if I have, I've never had an issue with being straight and identifying myself as such, so it never became an issue. 3. Present Time a) Are there any homo/bi/transexuals in your life right now? Yes b) If yes, how do they relate to you? (Close friends, acquaintances, family, etc?) friends/acquaintance c) Hypothetically, if your best friend came out to you as gay/bi/les/trans, how would you react? "Why didn't you tell me eariler?" I'd be hurt that they couldn't trust me with telling me earlier. They're my best friend! d) How do you think your family would react if they found out they had a gay child/sibling? They'd probably think the person's a little outta whack, but only because no one's given off any signals as to being gay before, so it'd be really odd to have them suddently change their sexuality. It'd be seen more of an 'exploring' thing I think. e) Is homophobia present in your school and/or work place? A little that I know of, and oddly from people who say they're alright with it. "As long as I don't have to see anything, everything's fine," she says. She wouldn't like it if she saw a homosexual couple holding hands while grocery shopping. I have relatives who are openly homophobes though. 4. Opinions/Deeper thinking a) What would you say the cause of homosexuality is? Probably something largely genetic based. Although culture certainly plays a role. I heard on CBC radio a couple weeks ago that the Greeks used to think that for men to want women instead of boys could be considered freakish. b) Do you believe it is something that can be cured, like a disease; a disorder that can’t be cured, but can be slowed down; a genetic imbalance; a choice; or something else? I'm sure with enough research, we'd find the real causes for people being gay, and from that happening, then I think that it could be 'cured'. However, it's not a disease or disorder unless society thinks it's one, (since its based on behaviour and not physical health), so I see no reason why it should be cured. The whole 'choice' thing, which I've heard people go on and on about, I don't agree with, even though at my university it was certainly what was preached as 'the truth' about homosexuality. I don't have much of a choice in what I'm sexually attracted to, and I don't see how anyone else, gay or straight, could really 'choose' what they're attracted to. I have control over my actions, but only a very small amount of choice into what arouses me. c) What is your opinion on gay marraige and/or adoption by gay couples? My opinion is that its perfectly fine. I've heard people distinguish between these 2 questions though, from someone gay actually. She said that marriage is only between a man and a woman, but had no problem with common law, children, etc, essentially, everything that marriage stands for. d) Why do you think there is so much homophobia in the world? (Religion, culture, tradition, health, etc?) Culture, tradition, the usual. Most people aren't tolerant in general. e) Why did you choose take this survey? To help you out with your project. I know the need to bother people to do my expts. I feel your pain into needing info! Good luck with it ![]() edit: I'm the oldest person to take this, and I'm the only female beside the original poster too. Yowsers! Last edited by Cavernio; 12-6-2006 at 10:03 PM.. |

a) Matt b) New York c) 18 d) male e) straight f) Christian g) White/Caucasian History a) small town b) Yes c) Small d) Tolerant e)No g) No Present a)no c)a bit surprised, but okay with it as long as he didn't start coming on to me, then I would just feel uncomfortable. d)not sure e)Most likely to some degree, but not sure Opinion a) Either genetics, upbringing, childhood experiences, or a combination of these. b)I believe it is a natural disposition or trained thought pattern that if genetic can not be cured, but if trained, is difficult to overcome. I feel it is up to the individual wether he wants to accept it or reject it. c)I am against it mainly on behalf of the adopted child. It would most likely lead to mixed emotions and feeling of the child, as well as result in him becoming a social outcast at school, even being ridiculed by some parents. d)People fear what they do not understand, and in order to understand homosexuality, one must experience it to some degree. e)Bored and I thought my responses might help.
