Looking for Love.


When a young gay man ventures out into the gay scene he is not looking for promiscuous sexual gratification he is looking for love.

And as an adjunct of love sex is a bonus.

Unfortunately the culture of the gay scene which is driven by rock bands and divas encourages casual sex as an end in itself.

Sex first maybe friends later.

This is not a healthy atmosphere.

And it is not satisfying.

We need somehow to encourage young people to be more aware of their own needs and not just follow the lead of the prevailing culture.

This culture was created when homosexuality was illegal and most gay men married.

Therefore most men were looking for casual sexual encounters not lasting relationships.

But things have changed. 

Homosexuality is legal and gay men can marry.

So the culture of the gay scene needs to change to catch up with the new circumstances.

Gay men are looking for love.

And they are looking for a long-term relationship, even marriage.

This is the new reality.
