Well, that was fun.

Considering Kevin-kun's ...reevaluation of his own sexuality, I have to wonder if anyone else had such an enlightening event week--Or if everyone else would react to waking up in bed with someone of the same gender... with quite so much finesse.For that matter,

My thoughts are that you should love whom you love. I have both male and female lovers and I do not see why one would set a restriction from loving one form over another.

I was also raised differently than most others.

Always a good philosophy. Of course, for someone like you, I'd imagine you'd have your pick of lovers anyway.

Oh, some people have ideas about tradition, and gender roles, I guess. You're lucky to be free of such things.

Sometimes it is difficult. Here, I do not understand why some people would fear things. Or limit others abilities because they are male or female.

Culture shock, yeah. Well...people carry with them prejudices, traditions, and morals from their home-worlds that not all of us share, but I guess we each expect others to believe some of the same basic things we do. ...I don't know. Some people are just afraid of things that are different.

Anyway, at its most basic, I guess this one comes from the truth that two men--or two women, for that matter--cannot produce children, and in some cultures, that's what matters in a marriage, not love.

...isn't it like, private thing?

[turn_a_blindeye]

It was more of a conversation starter. I wasn't asking for your personal sexuality, only your thoughts on the matter. But if you prefer to keep it to yourself, by all means.

[meteo_sniper]

That's what I mean. Wherever one has a thing for the same or opposite gender, - or maybe even is attracted to both - it's is only their own business.

That's rather a personal question for the public. Either way, does an answer really matter?

[turn_a_blindeye]

Oh? Is it? I thought it was rather tame, and there are always filters if someone doesn't want own up to his or her opinions. And we're a varied community. It'd be nice to know what people feel on certain matters...what constitutes a legitimate couple or relationship can certainly be among the topics of discussion.

Gender is irrelevent. I know ushc relationshios are not necessarily encouraged or openly displayed in my world, but I have never seen them being outwardly frowned upon.

[turn_a_blindeye]

Unfortunately, I've seen them...frowned upon. To their faces.
Thank you, Unohana-sama. ...I may have another question for you, eventually, if it's not too much trouble.

What is it, Kakashi-san ?

Uh, well, there's someone here from my world who wanted to marry, but one of our own wasn't comfortable enough with the relationship to officiate it.

If he's alright with it, and if you are too, perhaps he may want to ask you to marry them...

[ff_red_turk]

What does it matter ?

[turn_a_blindeye]

I was curious.

[ff_red_turk]

I mean, what does gender matter ?

[turn_a_blindeye]

Well, it shouldn't matter, but some think marriage is just between a man and a woman.
