NOH8. The Gay Marraige Debate.

Gay Marraige is now legal in New York City... How do you feel?

Daniel, 31
(Favorite TV characer is Doug of King of Queens) 
Jorge, 41: Wonderful! People should be happy regardless of sex, gender or anything. The botton line is that people should be able to do what they want to do to be happy. They deserve the same opportunites to build a life and family together.

Daniel, 30: It's cool for them. Why shouldnt they be able to get married? They are not bothering anyone.

LeTrice, 21: I think it is a wonderful thing because I have friends that are gay and I love that they are now able to experience what I have the chance to. Like, have a beaurtiful wedding, and celebrate their love and happiness with their friends and family.

Cobb, 23: Great! Good for them!

Christina, 28: To be honest, I personally do believe that everyone deserves to be happy. However, I am against gay marraige because the bible says that marraige is between a man and a woman. 

Danny: It should be legal everywhere !

Are Men More Likely to Cheat than Women?

Question: Are men more likely to cheat than women? Why?
Jorge, 42: Tough question. I believe that all people do it for all different reasons. I know a lot of girls that cheat. I keep my mouth shut. Girls are emotional; men are animals.
Danny: It used to be like that way. Not so much anymore. I know a lot of women that cheat. If that’s what you want, get it in an open relationship. Which has become very common. In today’s world you have to accept every possible lifestyle. Cheating is morally wrong. You are violating someone’s trust. Open relationships can work and not for me but my friends are in it and it works for them
Brandy, 23: Yes, I think girls are more emotionally attached. Guys just like attention, so any kind of attention they will take it
Christy, 28: Guys like to brag to their friends about the girls they bang. ‘I piped this and I smashed that’
Sandy, 31: Absolutely because they have a higher sex drive than women. Every guy I have been with has cheated.
Daniel: Depends on the person. Not the gender. Men who drink iced mochas are less likely to cheat LOL
Matt: No. There is no reason.
Rashiem: No because both are equally possible to cheat. Science will tell you that women have more hormones than men. Cheating has more layers. Be honest with your feelings and lust. Be secure on feelings. Cheating is not necessarily bad. I think real relationships can grow from cheating.
Adelle, 24: Yeah because they always want to experience that ‘new fling’ feeling
LeTrice, 21: Definitely because they want that new chase. We shouldn’t base it on gender though because everyone wants to have their cake and eat it too.

Friends With Benefits: How common is it? Can it work?

"Friends with Benefits" has been relevant in our culture in the recent years. Sexuality and relationships are not black and white anymore. There isn't any rulebooks on how people should relate, and connect to each other. Young people do not just have sex with who they are in relationships with or even have feelings for.

The sexy Justin Timberlake and the talented, and charismatic Mila Kunis star in the movie, Friends With Benefits. The story is about a guy and a girl who are good friends and decide to cross that line without getting into a relationship. Friends with Benefits is a common term and seems like an ideal situation but can it work?

Have you ever had a "friend with benefits"? Can it work?

Jorge, 42: Yes, we would have twice a week. It was good until I moved. After that, she confessed her love. Glad I moved when I did. Things would have gotten complicated.

Evelyn, 29: I do not like it because I would feel used. I am old school, and that just seems inappropriate. I have had one but it did not last long because I did not like how it made me feel.

Rasheim: It can definitely work. It just has to be between two people tat can be respectful and honest with each other the entire time.

Daniel, 31: Sooner or later someone will catch feelings. It can get uncomfortable. You are not really "friends" anymore once you add the benefits.

Jasmine, 19: I have had a friend with benefits but it ended because he was engaged.

Danny: Yes. It was great. Because we were honest up front. It was a mutual attraction and we were close friends. It went on for close to a year. It was long distance, once a month. She would come to NY from LA and stay with me 4-5 days. It ended when I got into a relationship with someone I had more romantic feelings for. We are not friends to this day, it is not appropriate now that I am married.

Jessica, 27: Yes I have. It does not have to get complicated if you are honest with your feelings. It really depends on the person.
