<p>“The only thing is that occasionally these morals are hurtful to others if they aren’t expressed in a respectful way, especially if the person gets preachy.”</p>
<p>I think that applies to a lot of roommate issues, not just sexuality. People shouldn’t go out of their way to be polite. No, they shouldn’t call someone a whatever name, but they shouldn’t have to go out of their way to be nice about it. They don’t need to say anything at all, either way. I would think if someone is strongly opposed to homosexuality, they would just switch rooms. I’m sure housing would accomadate a request like that, because someone could use religion as a reason. If it bothered me a lot, I would switch roommates. It’s fine to be uncomfortable with it and remove yourself from that situation. I don’t like the idea some people have that everyone needs to be accepting about it, because a lot of people and socities consider it wrong, and calling their beliefs intolerant or homophobic is actually intolerant and ignorant. I don’t like how people call others homophobic for saying gay people make them uncomfortable or they don’t agree with it. The people preaching to others about being close minded should try being as tolerant as they want everyone else to be.</p>
