This article is an eye-opener to me. Thanks to Saroj! From what I witnessed in some of the European countries, I presumed that the US is LGBT-friendly. This article is an eye-opener to me.

I love the sentiment that 'we are all human first'. Growing up in a conservative family in the midwest, i really didn't become aware of homosexuality until my teens, and never witnessed homosexual kissing until I was in college (I totally did double-take - not my most graceful moment ;). While most my family is still very conservative, I think the US is slowly moving to accept LGBT as an equal lifestyle choice. It's hard, because the US is very polarized at the moment - much more so than in earlier generations. Building bridges between diffferent viewpoints is increasingly necessary. I hope you bring sensitivity and understanding to the medical field - it is sorely lacking sometimes. Kudos!! I love the sentiment that 'we are all human first'.

I am ashamed to state that I did not take it very well (on the inside) though I did not shame myself or my sons openly. I think we have a deep seated bias in my generation. The younger generation is more open.

I thought the western societies are very much open to homosexuality and same sex marriages. But never knew that this freedom, recognition and openness is only to a certain degree. This is news to me.. <br><br>Also, you are pretty good at pointing out Hinduism and its facts. To many Hindus, including fundamentalists, Hinduism is yet another religion - which in my opinion is hugely flawed. Thanks, you touched on a sensitive topic!
