exactly. it is socially acceptable for you to be a 21 year old chick. its already demonstrated that in this forum it is
not socially acceptable to be homosexual therefore why would
anybody who was homosexual speak up publically when it would only result in further ridicule?
I don't dislike gays at all
i have not asked you or anyone to like them.
I DO dislike them shoving their BS on me
as do i! i not only "dislike" it, i am offended by it. this isnt about acceptance, its about not going out of your way to be intolerant.
And there aren't "just a few militant ones"as you claim...there are obviously enough to fill a big *** parade!
lol.....if you think that the number of marchers and other extremists is an accurate representation of the true number of homosexuals, you are truly ignorant to the society in which you live. now before you get offended by my usage of the word "ignorant", im using the literal definition and its not to be taken as an insult.
I DO respect their right of free speech to say "I'M GAY!"...but unlike you, I am not a hypocrite.
unless youre making this up so youll have a catchy reply, please show me where i have been a hypocrite. ive said that i made mistakes in the past, and that i learned from them. thats not hypocrisy, thats real life.
I DISLIKE GAYS!" I'm not going to afford rights to SELECT groups and deny them to others while citing "hate" as an excuse. Open speech is exactly that...OPEN...to ANYONE.
you are born with the inalienable right to embrace or to hate
anyone that you choose. a lot of straight and even gay men have died to ensure that right for you. however, with those rights come certain responsibilities. its ok for you to hate gays, but is it ok for you to publically express that hatred in a public forum? what about blacks? if you decide tomorrow that you hate blacks is it ok for you to come to this board and express that hatred including the usage of derrogatory terms that are associated with blacks? i mean, if its "ok" to use "fag" to express your ridicule of gays, it is also "ok" to use "******" to express your ridicule of blacks? just where _do_ you draw the line?
And yes, you said that *most* women are attracted to muscles, etc (scroll up)
no......_you_ scroll up because you are pitifully misinformed. i recommend that you read the thread again and find where i ever used the word "most".
you're allowed to make somewhat derogatory blanket statements about women, but we can't use "fag" in a joking manner? Ok, sure.
that response is ridiculous! i have made no derrogatory statements about women.......i
love women! i love
all women. there is a distinct difference that any reasonable person will know, though i dont expect you to be impartial or fair here.
I defend the right of people to like/dislike whomever they
please.
that in itself is
fine. i have personally fought to preserve the right of people to like/dislike whomever they choose but thats not what we're dealing with here.
I do NOT call that hate talk.
it becomes hate talk when derrogatory comments are made.
You say you are standing up for the rights of gays not to be offended
thats
not what i said! sheesh, pay attention please.
If you so vehemently dislike the actions of our members and moderators, why are you still here?
so far i dislike the actions of 2 or 3 but i refuse to judge the entire group by the ignorance of a few. im still in the process of forming my opinion of the board as a whole before i determine if i fit in or not.
are you suggesting its ok to be here so long as you agree with everyone but if you find difference with anyone you should run away?
if allowing our members to express themselves the way they choose bothers you, yes I do indeed think you will be more welcome elsewhere.
do you
really think as narrowly as you express yourself? do you really not see anything here beyond what you just said or are you just trying to win an argument at any expense?
In fact, the ONLY person who has acted OPPRESSIVELY is...you.
lol.....ok......ignore my last question!
You complained about the terms used, in an effort to silence them...sounds pretty oppressive to me! 
lol....youre just too tough.
feminists that are militant ARE blatantly ridiculed
what do extremists have to do with anything? we're talking about.....
nevermind. it is painfully obvious that you havent the experience to understand the true ugliness of the actions of certain members. youve obviously lived your life shielded from the things you speak about. congratulations, i envy you actually.
