for the "Cinematic feeling"

And i still stand by my statement that childhood trauma does not cause a shift in sexuality.

I think this would fall under correlation doesn't imply causation and anecdotal evidence.

You need to take a statistics course. That is hardly a strong coincidence. Use some logic. Look at it the other way. There are plenty of people with such background as you stated that are not gay - if it was in any way even a mild predictor or has an influence there would be many more people that are gay who are not. People who usually have to state so many times that they aren't hating on people, are in fact hating on them. 

Bisexual
Fantastic childhood
Has a friend that is a lesbian
Good childhood there too.
Your move.

A shift in sexuality does not occur from childhood trauma. The end

Just thought I'd share this story here

I’m gay. I’ve known since I was a kid that I was different even though I didn’t know what gay was back then. When I got older and figured it out I kept it hidden. I went on dates with girls and pretended I was straight because I wanted to fit in and because I’ve never known an openly gay person in real life. My mom died when I barely a year old and I was raised by my dad. Now I’ve never heard my dad say something homophobic or anything like that but he is the epitome of a “manly” man. He works as a mechanic, plays sports and does outdoorsy stuff and home repair. He dresses in plaid and jeans when he’s not at work and while he does wash he is as far from a ‘metrosexual’ as is possible when it comes to grooming. My older sister, while she is tiny and looks very ‘feminine’, is in the military and is very rough and tumble. My older brother is exactly like my dad, they dress very alike and share the same hobbies. He works in construction and infrastructure. Now don’t flame me, I know gay people do these things, I’m just trying to show how I don’t fit in with my ‘manly’ family and how I feel like an outcast because I’m not like them even though I pretend to be. There is a gay club that I have always wanted to go to, but I would park across the street or walk up and down the sidewalk in front of it because I didn’t have the guts to go in even though I always wanted to.
 
Lately my dad, and to a lesser extent my brother and sister have been acting weird. My dad keeps mentioning gay people in the news without making a point and is being elusive. It has been really straining our relationship. I thought he suspected me I was gay and was upset. Last Friday he came over and was acting weird again. I couldn’t take it and confronted him. He was aloof and I accused him of not caring. He burst into tears and yelled that he ‘didn’t want me to kill myself.’ I am 23 years old and I have never seen my dad cry before, not over my mom, not when my sister graduated from boot camp or when my brother or I graduated from school. It just isn’t him. My ‘manly’ man dad wept in my kitchen and told me after hearing about all the young gay people killing themselves over the past year he has been terrified that I am going to do the same thing because I won’t talk about being gay and just hid it. Apparently I am not as good as hiding it as I thought because my family knows but didn’t say anything because they wanted to respect my privacy and let me come out when I was ready. But all this time my dad and siblings were so scared I was unhappy and suicidal. I cried with my dad in my kitchen. I called my brother and told him. He said “I know. And I love you”. My sister was out with some military friends and when I told her she yelled to everyone in the bar “My baby brother is gay and I love him!” I came out on Facebook and everyone was happy and supportive. On Friday my dad, my brother, my sister and my 3 best friends took me to the gay club I always wanted to go to. None of them mocked anyone, said anything hateful or complained about being hit on. My dad was pulled up on stage with a drag queen. They all danced. Everyone was celebrating the SCOTUS ruling. We all went to the PRIDE parade today as well. Today my grandfather called me. He is a retired Baptist pastor. He told me that if I ever married, he is coming out of retirement to perform the ceremony himself. I never thought this would happen. I thought everyone would hate me. But they don’t. They love me.

Meh not my sorta thing. I prefer the more twink boys, cute af. 
 
On a side not, Lebanon and Mozambique just made being gay legal now. No more death penalties. 

I feel like the assumption is that people are gay because they had a horrible childhood in some way or that they did drugs.

Spat? Hardly.
 
Didn't even know this was worth posting on the forums.

Congrats on a sick burn, @LinusTech and the team
 
EDIT: did'nt realize id passed 1000 posts, yay for me

I'd be lying if I said I didn't see this coming.

... I think this thread is gonna get derailed real fast

You obviously don't see what HP is trying to do!
This is ultimate work station that can use both CUDA and OpenCL!

That's impressively stupid. Congrats. 

20:42 "I will start firing people and i would have a shareholder meeting" lol

I have seen worse with HP
 

HP is know for their retarded pre-builts, considering I've seen a rig not much better than that for $600, when I'd made a rig for $428 that spanked the shit out of it in every single way.

So i just came across this HP Pavillion with an AMD A10 5700 and integrated HD 7660D graphics. Installed in this computer was also a Nvidia GT 620 GPU and on the back of the motherboard was the onboard DVI/VGA blocked by covers that say "DO NOT REMOVE" on them as shown in this picture.
 
So rather than doing dual graphics they paired a GT 620 GPU with an AMD APU system rendering the HD 7660D graphics completely useless? On top of that the GT 620 GPU is WORSE than HD 7660D? The ONLY reasoning that i can find behind this is that the GT 620 has an HDMI port but HP could have just put one on their motherboard....
 

Women partake in IT and comp science less than men. Do you often see men going into the fashion industry? Although it's got a few men in it, it's dominated by women. Same goes for this sort of thing. Who says that girls can't do it?

Normally I'm the feminist here but this just plain bothers me.
