Sexual Procedures & Alibis

I have a dream...
Ok, I confess.... definitely, this is not an original way to start writing something: many people used it and it's so natural that everyone has got its own desires, hopes, wishes... we're just men after all.
My personal reverie is a world made of love and not of sex, especially referring the gay scene.
I'm not a puritan, in spite of this I can't help but realizing that sex is not something "procedural" invented for giving us pleasure when we want and the way we want.
Everyone is speaking about gay pride but none focuses his attention about gay dignity.
In my opinion, that would be more precious: pride is an overindulged feeling, nowadays everyone has learnt to be proud of himself, even kamikazes or corrupted politicians...
In the homosexual world of course it's about a spontaneous reaction to repression and social outcasting, therefore can be understood: but keep in mind that we're not justified by self-complacency - that's not a valid alibi - like a naughty child won't be absolved by his parents just because he's conceited about his pranks...
So, rather than shouting out in the streets the pride of being gay - which can be exasperating - let's begin to prove to the "skeptics" our moral qualities... I'm fed up with the gay world concentrated on fucking and ignoring its potentialities and all the other things....
A guy who no longer belongs to my life once said to me: "Don't give yourself away to the first person passing by because you fail to find what you're looking for..."
He was fucking right, even though sometimes I forgot of his recommendation.
