Sexually attracted to the same sex. That is, men who want it from men, and women who want it from women. Not necessarily obsessed with anal or oral sex. The common slang term is "gay." (Also used is "queer," but you shouldn't use that term unless you are yourself one.)

Not necessarily any more lewd, kinky, perverted, or normal than straights...but not necessarily any less so.

Get the homosexual mug.
A name commonly given to your average everyday person who works hard each day to make a living. A person who prefers the same sex for sexual activities. A person denied common rights such as marriage, getting into the emergency room with their mate is dying, and filing their taxes together. As varied as their straight counterparts, but stereotyped as being effeminate, dressing brightly or "metrosexual," and being promiscuous. Steretyped and being unmanly, weak, and having "mama" issues.
I'm a gay man who works a corporate job, drives a truck, drinks beer, works in the yard and prefers t-shirts, jeans, and country music. Take your sterotypes and shove 'em. PS - ever had a gay guy kick your ass? Want to now?

Get the homosexuals mug.
A person who comes to the world being what he/he is. So they have no choice but to follow his/her instincts, and that is, feel love for his/her same gender. Homosexuals are the perfect example to explain human race doesnt understand itself as a race. Most homosexuals live lonely/depressed lives because society is full of ignorant people who don't understand the real meaning or morality so they reject them. The homosexual is normal person. Nobody knows why people keep saying they're human cause its so obvious they're human. Maybe the way people threat them is so fucked up some even doubt they might be human. When the homosexual discloses his/her status, he/she lost all of his/her friends and live a depressed, fucked up life. Society even stop these people from making their goals come true by denying then the rights to get certain jobs etc. Even if they're talented, just like me. Its fucking sad. The funny thing is they're born to heterosexual parents who hate gays, and even so, they end up loving his/her child even more because only that kind of love can push people into getting educated about the topic and by doing so, accept them. Education is the key. Say NO to ignorance, be a HUMAN BEING show respect for those who are different. Society is still a primitive and dangerous habitat for humans, especially for homosexuals.

Despite what many people think, this is NOT a sexual preference, is something one is born with

1.A person who has sex with someone of the same gender.

the argument that homosexuality is not natural is irrelevant for two reasons. first because were not the only animals to do it, and second because being natural dosnt mean it's bad or good. Poison is natural, so are vitamins.

Unfortunatly there are alot of gay people with AIDS. But what of the heterosexuals with AIDS? Is god punishing them? That's like saying anything bad that happens is because God is pissed at you. Would you tell a child that was molested it was his/her fault because God is pissed?

Dumbass!

a normal person, who just has a diffrent taste in people

If someone is happy, and not afraid to be themselves, why should their sexual preference matter?
