I'm gay and live/work in an area where the few gay men I meet are either taken or closeted. Expressing such an interest in the wrong man could prove to be dangerous for me. I'll be glad when our society gets past that.

Why would anyone want to be a pessimist? http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/8577021 Optimists look for/expect good and pessimists look for/expect not so good. Why would anyone want to be a pessimist?<br /><br />Happy New Year, Rosie, madear! I see pessimism not as something people want to be, but as a result of a jaded growth process. When one is disappointed often enough, he naturally begins to expect to be disappointed, and, wallah, a pessimist is born.
