Dan.
I am a completely closeted middle age gay man. I have am forced through convention to live a heteresexual lifestyle among heterosexual homophbic family and friends. I am single have no gay friends and never had a relationship, but im happy have friends and live a happy life. All I no is that when I was about 13 yrs age the word gay was not invented but I new I was different and liked the same sex. I come from a normal middle class home sex in those days was not talked about so I felt very alone. All this stupid talk about cures we are not ill. For God sake people grow up and enjoy life I certanly do. Worry about things that matter not about things that are non of your business, all I can say is I am a very outgoing extroverted person but people who worry about peoples sexuality must live very narrow lonely sad boreing lives.
