a gay topic.

DinoDoc · June 16, 2002, 00:24

i thought this was a good troll

MrFun · June 16, 2002, 00:57

Boann, I do not read every thread on here, so can you give me the number of threads that have turned into the topic of homosexuality?

boann · June 16, 2002, 01:05

hummm well one quick short search and
over the last few weeks 29 threads with the
word homosexual

H Tower · June 16, 2002, 01:25

and there are around 40 new threads a day, so over a three week period that would be 840 new threads and 29 have the word homosexual in them. that's almost all of them

boann · June 16, 2002, 01:39

well i doubt the one word search picked up all the threads that had some inuendo on the subject.
but there are at least 6 of 30 threads on the first page right now discussing the subject in some fashion..

How much "Chicken Fried Steak" did it take to get your PC Cam installed? And was the ISB disabled in the BIOS?

It's the Internet. Name your peculiarity, and you'll find it within 25 seconds.

Prince Albert would never get canned. He had better manners.

yeah we do but Monty Python is funny?

Winston · June 16, 2002, 10:51

I've had the exact same thought.

Some people seem to have an amazing need for making their sexual preferences public. Over and over and over again. And in every context imaginable.

But to point to this fact would be homophobic, I'm sure. Not to mention if one was to say it's becoming a bit too much at times.

boann · June 16, 2002, 10:56

exactly.
i suppose its not politically correct to even question it.
but ive never been PC sooooo
in my opinion it would be like me dropping in on every thread and pointing out how it relates to the female gender.
i think everyone would get quite tired of it after a while.

I wouldn't get upset over someone not liking opera.

But you're implying opera is somehow a homosexual thing and that only homosexuals enjoy it. This is simply a gross stereotype.

No, Winston, the problem is that people seem to think that a gay person merely referring to his sexual orientation, whether in a serious or humorous context, is somehow different than a heterosexual doing the same thing. Heterosexuals do it every time they mention a spouse, a date, a significant other, etc. But if a gay person does the same, it's not okay? Nice double standard.

Why don't you give us a nice limit on how much we're allowed to bring up homosexuality.

Oh, and of the threads that are specifically about homosexuality, nearly all of them were created by heterosexuals, including this one!

Winston · June 16, 2002, 11:06

I'm not going to involve myself in an argument over this Boris.

You can either take note of the fat that some people have picked up on this - or not.

Boris Godunov · June 16, 2002, 11:07

Ok, it's noted, and dismissed.

boann · June 16, 2002, 11:24

ive got nothing against a persons sexually its a personal
choice but i do mind it being flanted in my face every day. i don't like hetros doing that either. i personallly think sexually should be discussed in a more private manner.
all im saying is that lately it seems this forum is
turning into a gay parade of invitations and
sexual inuendos between the gay posters.

it used to be that most of the sexual referances were in the coffee shop and if a person wanted to view that they could go there but lately its spread to many other threads.
