LOL.

When they thought you were a Gay man they had issues.

Now they know that you are in fact a Gay Woman.... Suddenly its all good. So basically-

Gay Men = the enemy

Gay Women = the subject of a good adult movie.

This thread has now officially had the lot.
Pretty much:lol:

Typical isn't it?

Look Millers, I don't expect the Footy show to be sued or whatever.
I simply argued that I can understand how it was offensive.
I explained it in a post earlier but I'll go again:

The skit, as I know it, shows a Johns brother being rejected and wanting to be returned.
That highlights a very real issue with homosexual people who can have parents and families disown them and reject them.
It also portrays that it's negative to be homosexual and it's bad.

As for your question, some are socially acceptable to ridicule - Doesn't mean it's a good thing.



I am a girl.

well all power to you

i misunderstood your earlier posts and though you were advocating censorship

my apologees

Like Men who sleep with other Men?

Women who sleep with other Women are cool though cos they're just like us guys. You know same interests and stuff, except better to watch.

I never thought of it like that. In fact I never think of men sleeping with other men. I went to this gay house once & it smelt like an old persons home. you know what I mean. Nappies & all that crap.

& shorty, when I have kids, I am actually wanting to have grandkids too. Although I am running out of time. So if I had a son, who was never going to produce me grand kids, why wouldnt I want to refund it for one that worked?

I actually know a guy who begged his wife for a second child in case the first one was gay - no sh*t.

He got one too.

Although i do agree with the general ideas behind the posts you highlighted and am no way trying to break it down shorty... you have used Skeepe and Locky to strengthen your argument. Thats gotta hurt anyones argument :lol:.

Although i don't believe that being Homosexual is a mental disorder, there is scientific evidence that Homosexuals do have a Gene in there body that functions differently to Straight people, which has led to calls of Homosexuality being called a Mental Disorder. The main reason it isn't called so at present is fear of a public outcry. Ill put the name of the textbook i got it from when i find it if you like.

Don't be so hasty to dismiss the findings while riding your moral chariot;-).

On the issue at hand, i think society really needs to sit back and have a massive wank sometimes. Talk about taking things way to literal.

lol.Do they actually have a different gene:shock:.The genetic make-up of a person with straight hair is different from that of a person with curly hair.People who are left handed have a different genetic make-up tothose who write right handed -which of these is the disordered?
Mind you.I am also a bit puzzled about Shorty's concern for homosexuals to be lumped with the poor old "down syndrome":shock:

Hey warriors, as someone who holds some pretty strange views myself (i get into arguments with my wife that polygamy should be legal) i understand what its like to be ridiculed for your views, but i should make a couple of suggestions...

Firstly rethink your "homosexuality is a disability" idea, because its ludicrous. Not being able to procreate because your gay is no more a disability that not being able to procreate because you dont like stinky nappies. The word disability has several overt connotations, which make it inappropriate to use in this case. They arent physically or mentally disabled, they are procreationally challenged, which is not a disability, indeed for many its a choice.

Secondly, rethink your tone, dont misrepresent an argument and describe it as common sense, and dont characterize your opinion or far out ideas as fact, or merely a hard to swallow truth...this "everyone agrees with me by common consensus that its a disability" is not only condesending but flat wrong. Only a very small minority (and usually those of an intolerant point of view) would ever classify it as a disability. Saying "people reject it, no matter how truthful" implies that something is true, when it is in fact the most far out opinion of your own, one without evidence and that runs contrary to the vast majority of peoples ideas about the world.

Thirdly, if you are going to espouse an opinion which links pollution to homosexuality then you actually better come up with some, any sort of evidence, and not one that comes from a white power website. Homosexuality occurs in nature, and has been documented back through human history to early historic times. There was institutionalized homosexuality in both greek and roman cultures, and they didnt have to deal with air pollution from plastics manufacture or fertilizers running off into rivers. Its not a hard to swallow truth, its just a dumb idea without any basis of evidence. At best, its your opinion, and in MY opinion, not even within the bounds of possibility.

Which follows onto my fourth suggestion, people have a tendency to find patterns that fit what they believe, and this has a tendency to follow their predjudices. Someone who is a racist will happily believe and propogate an idea that aboriginals are genetically predeposed to violence or low intelligence, without any evidence that that is the case, or perhaps they will collect the scant evidence, ignoring and dismissing the strong evidence that contradicts their preconceptions. This is why this is idea is a racist idea, because you really have to have racist preconceptions to even give it creedence.

Now, you say you arent a homophobe, and fair enough, but unfortunately some of your ideas and they way they are described are homophobic.

Classifying it as a disability (which it isnt) which like a disease increases in likelihood with higher pollution (which it doesent), and suggesting people need to "shake the dust from their eyelids" to see the "truth" (which is in fact nothing more than baseless opinion) is homophobic rhetoric, my friend.

So my fourth suggestion is, be aware that its not JUST the way you put things, some of your actual ideas seem to require homophobic preconceptions to genuinely consider.

Anyway, i hope this helps and your not too offended, i did try to attack the ideas not the idealist.

YOU ARE AMAZING. this is amazing. seriously, this is what i would have written if i could be arsed. you are a more patient person than i am!

i think i am actually in love with you. can i be one of your multiple wives? ;-)

also for the nutters in this thread, of which there is many, i'm fairly sure the fact that unless sterile, all gay people CAN reproduce...and often do. this isn't about the biological capability to have children or not it's about sexual preference. as someone said earlier, alot of gay people have kids then come out later.

in other news i can't believe this thread is still going.

at least the recent dramas in league have shined a light on the sexist, racist and homophobic posters on LU. unsuprisingly enough all 3 charming traits exist in the same people. least i know who to ignore now.
