Whose jamastar? If you're referring to me, it's iamastar. There's no j in the name. And yes, he is being a smart ass.

Since when did this discussion become an argument? I thought it was about the movie I'm trying to make. However, you guys never cease to amaze. I guess I should have known better since I am a vet.

He was being a smart ass and you know it.

Notsojoey ridiculed jamastars project? I don't think so. It appears he simply answered the requested questions in a truethful manner.

Besides, jamastar thanked him for his help - so I guess you, clpo13, are wrong for about the 9,813th time.

Thanks for the replies guys. Keep 'em coming. Please.

What I understood this thread to be asking is for VIDEO interviews, so you trying to start a fight once again does not fulfill any request. And I'll have you know that I will be helping once I can get home and record.

You ridiculed his "project." I don't think that counts. Don't act all innocent. You were just trying to stir the pot, as usual.

I'm too lazy to try to figure out where the NM feature disappeared to, so here are my answers:

Do you support the GLBT community?
I don't actively support them, but neither do I hinder their progress.

What are some stereotypes that you have about gays?
None, really. I know all sorts of gays, some who fit into stereotypes and others who break them.

How do present day politics play in your everyday life?
They're mildly important. I'm not very active in politics except online, although I do like to talk and debate about issues that I feel strongly about.

If one of your friends came out to you and you weren't pro-gay, would you still be friends and support them?
Sure. It wouldn't affect me at all.

Do you believe in being born gay or a person chooses their sexuality?
I don't think it matters. They should be allowed to live life how they see fit.

Freedomordeath, I thought iamaster was asking for help for his video and had posted questions to be answered? Did he not do this and did I not answer them? Perhaps you, freedomordeath, should try to help instead of criticizing others.

glad to help, drop me an NM if you have more Qs

Thanks for the NM amp. I really do appreciate at it. Every little bit helps. And btw, notsojoey, I didn't ask for a smart ass so go screw off.

I suggest you grow up and not try to start another one of your mindless debates on a board that is not asking for one.

Response from a straight man from Alabama

Do you support the GLBT community? While I oppose homsexuality as a deviant choice from the norm I respect the rights of the first ammendment which allow them to assemble

What are some stereotypes that you have about gays?

Falmboyant

How do present day politics play in your everyday life?

How do they not?

If one of your friends came out to you and you weren't pro-gay, would you still be friends and support them?

I would be their friend, yes - but I would help guide them back to heterosexuality.

Do you believe in being born gay or a person chooses their sexuality?

There is no proof people are born gay so I have no other choice but to assume it is a choice. If they were born gay there would be something different with their bodies that doctors would be able to recognize - but there isn't.

Hope this helps your little 'project'. You're welcome

We get it amp, you're straight. No need to clarify.

I'll submit to an interview as a straight teen, you want me to just NM my awnsers to you or what?

Here's a hard copy of the questions I made just in case something happens. I'm sure I'll be thinking of more so don't think that there aren't more coming.

Questions for Gay Teens:

Are you out of the "closet"? If so, how did you come out?
Does your family support you for being gay?
What are some of the constant issues you face on a day-to-day basis?
How do you relate with your heterosexual counterparts?
What are some of the stereotypical stereotypes people have of gays?
How do present day politics play in your everyday life?
What are some life experiences you've had that have shaped you?
Do you believe in being born gay or a person chooses their sexuality?

Questions for Straight Teens:

Do you support the GLBT community?
If not, why and would you ever change your mind about it?
What are some stereotypes that you have about gays?
How do present day politics play in your everyday life?
If one of your friends came out to you and you weren't pro-gay, would you still be friends and support them?
Do you believe in being born gay or a person chooses their sexuality?

Thus why I included "duh"...

Well, NOISEmail me the types of questions you would want me to address in any said tape and stuff. Or we can just arrange a chat that way.

1. I would credit all my sources.

What kind of film maker would I be if I didn't give credit to all of my sources?

2. We could arragne that.

Two conditions:

I would want to be creditted as partaking (duh...)

And I would want to see the final copy.

I'm basically looking for young people who are gay and are willing to talk on tape about their life, experiences, stereotypes, how they interact with their heterosexual counterparts, family, etc.

I know a lot of gay people wont be willing to do that for the simple reason of not wanting to come out. But for those who are willing, I want to hear from you.

I was thinking if people were interested, letting YN be the middle man of sending in the home videos and having them send them to me. But that just depends on if you guys would be interested in doing this along with YN.

Yeah, I was out of line in my post below. Sorry about that. It won't happen again.

I think I'm going to need more information about what it is you're looking for... I'm still pretty confused. Are you going to have scripts or something at least? You're pretty broad in your explanation.
