Well,I don't see anyone else at present coming on here saying that they don't know or have never ever met a gay person in their life, I also said I was sure that I and likely the vast majority of other people will have met and likely know people who are gay,whether they approve of people being gay or not.That is all I said.

I will add that I think and I don't usually post as strong as this, but I will add that the survey you are throwing at us as actual fact in life, is in fact a load of rubbish in my view and I doubt many,even if any would agree with it that most people,therefore the majority as you quote, have never ever met or ever known anyone who is gay in their whole lives.
In my view, the survey you are quoting was either done in a very prejudiced way or is as you describe the 'real' subjective twaddle here.

Saints preseve us,I never said I was a survey, I was speaking for me, you are expecting people to believe that most people have never met,or know anyone who is gay.
I really can't understand why you appear so down on gay people anyway but one thing is sure I know a lot of people, I have in the last few years or so likely met over 1000+ Students past and present, spoken to many lecturers and I have in my extended family something like 70+ members of my family plus also my friends and I can be 100% sure that 'all' of them have met or know not just one person but many people who are gay.

Anyway, the thread is should gay marriage be taught in schools,I will end by saying I think all relationships should be up for discussion not just one form.
No discrimination whatsoever.
