Warning! Rant incoming.

No offense taken from this reader. My cousin was married for many years and finally came out to his wife. She fold him that she knew as he was one of the biggest flamers she knew. She stayed with him for their kid's sake, even though the kid was adopted and not biological as in this case.(●￣(ｴ)￣●)

Yeah, a kid's a kid, whether it's adopted or not, it still needs it's mother, doesn't it. If you're a bit of a mother, you're not going to drop it just because the man that goes with it doesn't fit! ;-P
Besides, for many women, being married to a gay man doesn't seem to be a torture. I know a woman who's married to a gay man, a colleague of ours, whom she loves a lot; she's not going to leave him if they payed her for it. She knows he's gay and she doesn't mind. They've got cute kids and he loves them to bits. They look like the perfect couple. We call him "Oscar Wilde", because Oscar Wilde was married to a woman who loved him too and had cute children whom he adored.
I do am happy he can't get into the trouble the real Oscar Wilde got into, though...
(if you're curious, ask me what trouble, or else Google "Oscar Wilde" and be sad :-( )
Anyway, we have no idea if that colleaghe of ours has male relationships besides his marriage. None of our business.

People just need to grow up, stop being prejudice, and stop being an idiot. Any mother that would give up her child for a stupid reason like this fictional mother did, should never have kids in the first place. (︶︿︶)＝凸

Relax, there's little chance that 'll happen a lot, since people who are homophobic consider homosexuality as a voluntary thing, a sin, a choice to make, or sometimes a disease. That means the problem a homophobic woman will have will be with the man, not with the kid. The first thing a mother like that would do is to get her kid away from that "sinner" or "sick person" ╮(￣▽￣)╭ in order to save it from getting "perverted" or "diseased" by him... So their way of thinking will at least save the kid from being abandoned by his mother; but it will get him separated by force from his dad for sure :-(
This mangaka made the mother react in a rather unnatural way, which very few real mothers will have, since it would imply there is somehow something wrong with a child, conceived by a gay man. And everybody knows that isn't so. The mangaka just invented a rather poor excuse to "erase" the mother figure from the story. I could have come up with better ones, I think, if I 'd put myself up to it.

I agree. Yet I know of mothers who abandon their children because they are gay. I think this is an extreme of what we both said. Father's gay ... therefore any child of his genes must be gay or "diseased“ from both. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍

Nah, parents dropping their kid when he/she turns out to be gay is normal for homophobes. Mind you, that happens when the kid is grown up, doesn't it. Not when they're a baby.
They always seem to see it as a voluntary thing, something you choose to be. They never think that through though: if that were so, howcome in countries where it can cost you your life in a horrible way to be accused of homosexuality, there are just as many gay people as in countries like mine, where they can get married and adopt children and go about their lives as they want? If it were a voluntary decision "I am going to become gay from now on" (sounds ridiculous when you say it like that, doesn't it), in those countries nobody would make that dangerous decision, don't you think? So over there, like in Iran or Russia, nobody would be gay, if it's nothing but a choice to make! Right? But still, there are gays over there. I wonder how homophobes explain that.

I hear you. Recently here gay marriage has been approved. In historical time, it was not uncommon to "frolick" with the same sex for men. Especially during wars.

As for mothers giving up their children. I have know children as young as 12 being kicked out of the house for being gag. There have been cases of children in elementary school killing themselves because of being gay. They get no understanding from peers and family and see no way out, other than death. It is sad but true.

(⊙…⊙ )
Wow! Where is that, you're talking of? You're writing under the American Flag. Are you talking about the U.S.??? Is it still that bad?
You should move over here, Spinka. That scary clown Trump may have said Belgium is a hell hole, but he doesn't know what he's talking about. Sounds to me he must have his Hells confused...
Surely it's just in some parts of the States, not everywhere?

Im from upper US and I theres some gay people where I live and its isnt really bad at all from what I know I have some friends who are BI or are dating the same gender.... Its like who cares?

I'm from Portugal and we don't really have any problems about same sex couples. However, if you go to small towns, to the islands or to the north of the mainland they tend to be more conservative. And there you can have some problems, or some stories I've heard/read about taxi drivers.

I have friends, both guys and girls, who are gay or bi. And I know manny more.
Some of them have some stories about homophobic people, but mostly they are seen as just regular people.

Trump sees that wonderful Belgium as hell because it's hell for him. I mean, some place where all that hate of his isn't accepted?

In here we also have to learn at least two languages at school. I took english and french.
Then at college I added spanish, japanese (that I had already started to learn by myself), ancient greek, latin, and history of the english language (not a language by itself, but I learned a bit of old an middle english). And I still want more!
What'll be next? Korean, chinese, persian, finnish, italian, catalan, dutch, ...

If you want I can help you with the portuguese (⌒▽⌒)

I dont understand why does he hate Belgium? and all those other places? I dont really follow politics but how can someone hate places they havent lived in?

Portuguese are also known for having a knack for languages. And also for a knack for acquiring an already existing accent of the target language, instead of the obvious foreigner accent.
I think portuguese being my mother language has helped me learning other languages. And the more languages I learn, the easier it becomes (but that can be explained by the intralanguage theory and psycholinguistics).

I actually find kanji to be quite fun to learn, I like them. I don't exactly know how many I know, they're also only a few compared to what is needed. I haven't really been studying or reading japanese for the past year so it's a little rusty (￣∇￣")

I'm not sure, @Cyrano was the first to mention that Trump called Belgium a hell hole.
I think it's about one of Trump's typical bullsh*t. Probably because of the terrorist attacks that happened in march at the Zaventem airport and Brussels subway.

THE HELL? Thats so stupid! Thats like saying America is a hell hole after the 911 attacks we couldnt do shit it happened and that happened in Belgium terrorist attacks happen it sucks but Belgium probably isnt as bad ans the US I mean I dont go outside when its dark unless I have a knife I know kids who do drugs at my school! There was even a few girls and guys who have run away from there families here! IVE BEEN SHOT AT HERE! God Ive been hit by adults B4! And im only 16! Thats so stupid....INSTEAD OF DISRESPECTING OTHER COUNTRIES TAKE A DAMN GOOD LOOK AT YOUR OWN!

Wow, so much response :-D
I'll answer all of you one by one
@Unoriginal Artist: He heard something about the attacks in Brussels airport and subway, and he used it in his typically over-exaggerated way, in order to make his followers even more fanatical towards all foreigners, both Europeans and muslims and anything else, they don't need to be specific, they don't know anything about geography anyway. They couldn't point where Belgium is on a map if their life depended on it. So he can tell them what he wants. Those terrorist didn't want to do their attack in Brussels to begin with, by the way; they were a French Salafist ring, and they wanted to throw their bombs during the World Soccer Cup in Paris. But long before that, ours and the French police (our neighbours) had them pointed out and they decided to do something in Brussels before they were cayght. They're all caught and in prison or dead, now, anyway. Our police doesn't waste much time. Yeah, he doesn't know what he's saying. But he dopes the mob by bellowing, and apparently it works :-(

As soon as your box gets a bit long, it starts jumping up and down, does it do that with you guys too? So annoying!
@PRak: I like the sound of Portugese a lot, especially the way Brazilians speak it: it's so much softer than Spanish, eventhough on paper, it looks a lot alike, doesn't it?
In fact, Belgium has 3 linguistic communities: there's a tiny part on the top of the diamond where people speak German. It's two cities where the people all answered "yes" to a referendum after WW2 where they were asked whether they wanted to go back to Germany or stay Belgian... And they seemed to like us better than the Germans, so from that day our country was a teeny-tiney little bit larger :-D
Kanji are fun, indeed, but it's the mere amount that's a problem. Hiragana is a breeze, but the list of kanji, there's no end to it! Maybe with your young brain... (in case you're young, of course)
The Interlanguage theory you're talking of is correct, by the way; but mainly for toddlers. If you teach a baby 2 languages or 3 at a time, he gets to master all 3 of them perfectly, and it makes him smarter, because from a young age, he learns to think over a choice, and make the right decision at every word he speaks.

Yes, it does. So annoying (-.-)

Portuguese and Spanish are very similar graphically, it's the pronunciation that really gives it away. But the huge amount o false friends, words that have opposite geners in each language, and grammatical differences make it really easy to make bad mistakes.
Most portuguese people try to speak Spanish without learning it and end up using what we call 'portunhol' or 'espanholês' (mixing 'Português'/Portuguese and 'Espanhol'/Spanish). It turns out funny, understandable by both (portuguese people easily understand Spanish, but spanish people usually have a hard time understanding Portuguese), and strangely similar to Galego.

Who wouldn't like Belgium? I've been there a few times and I loved it right away.(▰˘◡˘▰) One time I went to the three borders and drove through those German speaking towns. It was really interesting how all the signs an everything were suddenly in another language. And I also liked to see how you could tell which area you were in, not only thanks to the language, but also the changes in scenery, architecture, and even the way people interacted (but they were all very nice).
In Portugal we also have a second language, which is little known, called Mirandês. But both countries have completely iferent llanguage policies. Here it is almost impossible to learn it outside the area, and you won't really find signs written in it. It's almost forgotten, even in Portugal.

I'm still young, in my early twenties, nearing the middle. But I am already way over the age linguists say to be the ideal age for foreign/second language acquisition and learning (although recent studies have said this factor is not as relevant as initially thought, and others such as motivation may be more important). And yes, the interlanguage theory really is stronger with children since their brains are still forming, but it is just as valid for all other ages.

yeas my box does that.

Hey girls (I assume you're all girls, right?) If you want to avoid the Jumping-Jack-flash-box and ask or tell me stuff use [email protected] that way you can go as long as you want. I am a comic drawer myself, a mangaka as the Japanese would say, (that's obviously why I am here at this site), I'm an old man but I get along fine with young people. And of course, I need lots of feedback from youngsters about what they like and dislike in comics and books in general; and I want youngsters to learn to think on their own, in order to avoid them to get brainwashed by "leaders" like the Salafists or Trumps of this world. I have seen the troubles in the world come and go a few times in my lifetime, and I see it come back again and again. Generations need to talk to each other, over all borders and in all languages. There's the Planet to save for you guys' future, and peace to make, and homophobia to fight, and all sorts of art forms to develop, and lots of fun to have, which the Bad ones try to refuse us, etcetera... HOp! there it goes again, I can't see what I'm typing anymore. Good thing I learned to type blind when I was a kid.
So, how about it? You're all welcome! (and it's not to seduce you, if you're suspicious- my, that's a hard word to type without seeing what you're doing!)
