Berlusconi: Better to love girls than gays

Milanese political official Silvio Berlusconi has been causing some uproar lately. Apparently, Berlusconi believes that it's "better to love beautiful girls than gays." This angered many gay rights activists. Arcigay president Paolo Pantane said that Berlusconi was legitimizing discrimination. Some of Berlusconi's publicists were trying to say he was just kidding around, and he did not want to offend both women and gays. Berlusconi had allegedly been visited by a young girl named Ruby. Many women are coming out with stories of spending nights with Berlusconi.

I think this scandalous issue is very embarrassing for Silvio Berlusconi. Not only has he obviously made himself look like he sleeps around, he has offended gay people. Personally, I'm fine with gay people. It's not my business to interfere with their lives. I don't think too many people actually choose to be gay; I think it's something you're born with. It's important for people, especially government officials, to accept people for who they are, or else problems could arise. Also, I think it's very disgusting that such a high up official has been having relations with younger women. Government officials should be the face of the nation: what they do represents the country. Italy most likely does not want a man like Berlusconi representing their country, and neither would I.
