Tyra, I am 15 and a proud Lesbian...most of the time. My friend came across a phrase that suits me perfectly. "I like Women in general and Men in specifics." (courtesy of the UK's Gareth David-Lloyd)I came out when I was 13 and as if that didn't make me odd enough I'm also 5'8 and 200+ Lbs. It's taken me years and a pair of remarkably supportive parents for me to realize that i am beautiful in who I am and what I am, no matter what I weigh, what I love, how much make-up i were, or how much money my clothes cost. You're show focuses a lot on empowering women and that is so amazing it has helped me a lot, and i know you have T-zone, but I wonder if you would put some more out there for girls like I used to be. I try to help me friends, but you can only help people as much as they want to be helped. And I want everyone to be helped! (I'm just a little crazy XD)another thing I don't understand is with all these people talking about empowerment and love your self and absolutely everything how it is at all that any one any where still has body issues at all, but they do. and regardless of any and every thing I aplaude you. Good job Tyra! I love you show and every bit of your awkward craziness.

As a Bible believing christian I have to say that GOD LOVES EVERYONE THE SAME!And according to Jesus Himself,EVERY ONE OF US BREAKS HIS RULES.So,whatever a person does, right or wrong,is between God and that person,unless it causes harm to others or in the case it is harmful to themselves,they must be approached in genuine love and concern.THAT'S what the Bible teaches.So PLEASE don't judge God and the Bible by those religious nut jobs because that's just not what He's about don't trust anyone, go to the source,Read The Book for yourself.

There are so many differnt views and concepts about homosexuality being a sin and sodom gomorrah was destroyed of it.reality is that sodom and gomorrah was detroyed because of sexual immorality, for eg. fornication, incest, beastiality etc. Common sense will convey that if in fact sodom and gomorrah was destroyed because of homosexuality, therfore would it not be safe to say that that only two men and two women were destroyed, for the mere fact that Two men cannot produce a baby, likewise for two women. I myself was raised a muslim, and later on converted to catholic. in both the koran and the holy bible, on the topic of sex and sin, in the catholic version, sex for enjoyment is a sin, it should only be done for pro-creation purpose, therfore almost 99% of the world population is commiting this sinful act, by having sex for enjoyment.imagine if people were to practice just sex for pro-creation purpose, would it not be safe to say that there would not be so many babies being born unwanted and facing horrible ardous circumstances.. I myself is not gay,I believe in sex for pro-creation, and have the real knowledge of knowing the true meaning of life. On another vital point to illustrate, the good book said that our creator loves us 100 times more than our parents. I would reckon that most parents will still love their son or daughter if he or she happens to be gay, on the other hand imagine your son or daughter , who have done things to please you, one day open up to you and told you that he is gay and his partner makes him happy, would you not still love him, on the interim what if another son who is heterosexual, but does horrible

I think that as an American it is your chose to pick your partner no matter of race, sex, and pressure of others. If you are gay, bisexual, or transgenered then I think you are truly brave to express what you prefer. I am not gay, bisexual, or transgenered and I am glad I am proud of others who aren't afraid to annouce what they truly are. I just wish judgements from disagreed people don't make mean judgements of others who chose partners totally differently.

Tyra, I am 15 years old and I came out to everyone in October of 2007. Before I came out my friends that knew told me " everyone is not going to care if you just show your proud" well its needless to say that it didnt get any better. In fact after that my relationships went downhill. How do I get back into the dating world and show that I am proud and not afraid to be loved by a guy?

Hi, Tyra I like that youdid a show on gays in america because it has helped me and my family to get along better even tho they still have a problem with it they no now that this is me. This is to Sexual Being comment I'm a stud who dosen't 4 my girl 2 touch me in certain places either, espacilly my chest. With her you have 2 ask what could you do that wouldn't make her feel like she was being volaited. Talk with her and see what she don't like then go from there, it wored 4 me!!

Hi Tyra! I am a gay, teen Muslim living in New York. Life has been increasingly difficult for me ever since I came out of the closet. I have received criticism and judgements from those whom I thought were my closest peers. Unfortunately, my assumption was wrong. IN the process, I have lost three friends. However, I gained approximately 30. That is a net gain of 27. lol. Despite the fact that I have received numerous inflammatory remarks, I am able to put my head up high and not let any ignorant people deter me.

Im 17 yrs old and i think like most girls at this age they question everything about themselves... Even their sexuality. For many years i battled with thoughts of me being attracted to females bc i thought to my self this couldnt be right. And to be honest i only thought this bc of the way ma own family treats gays. As i grew older i started to mess with different men who never kept me happy and wonder why i seemed to give so much and would never reccieve any love back. That is until this year when i truly felt like i FOUND the love of my life. I feel more comfortable with my girlfriend than i have been with any male i know. and honestly i dont think i would feel this strongly for her if she was a he. But my question and concern is: My girlfriend is a complete stud and doesnt like any type of sexual acts done to her but she loves doing everything to me. What should i do when i want to give her just as much pleasure as she gives me??? someone please help me!!!

I'm 18yrs old and a christian my parents are very religious and believe in every word the bible or the church has to say no matter what.I'm going through a very rough time in life where i am now questioning my sexuality.I'm honestly attracted to both men and woman. My parents are very homophobic they talk so negative about gays and how were all going to burn in hell and how the world is ending and so on. I have gay friends and gay cousins and my parents just say how sad and nasty it is that they are gay. But if they only knew that not only one but two of they're daughters myself and older sister are bisexual,and that there basicaly talking crap about two of they're daughters. Honestly i've felt an attraction to woman ever since the seventh grade now it's just gotten stronger. I have never experienced being with another woman but i just see a pretty one and i'm automatically attracted to them.Idk seriously i'm very close to my mom i tell her everything i would love to tell her everything im going through right now but now that she will be disgusted by me and throw me out the house and basicaly disown me for the rest of our lives. I am so confused i wish i can just come out and tell her but i dont wanna lose her.A nd i feel really bad i was brought up in church and it is said that being homosexual is a sin so idk i believe n god but it's like a feeling that i cant overcome as much as i want to, everything will be a hell of alot easier for me if i was just straight but i'm not!
