    Wait a second... so does my little brother in the room next door have methamphetamines waiting for my mucous membraines? Should I start tearing apart the dry wall of his room in hopes of stumbling upon the lost Dutchman's mine?!?!

    HELLPPP

      Or you could just abuse solvents - it's cheaper and there's the added kick of wondering if you'll die

            As I'm active in NUS I hear quite a lot of gossip from the "liberation" campaigns... it seems heterophobia and (particularly, and more disturbingly) biphobia are quite prevalent. Personally, I'd like to see an end to terms like the "gay community"; we're all people after all, and whilst it's completely understandable that LGB people stick together, at the end of the day developing a "bunker mentality" helps no-one.

              I'm on the committee of the Swansea Uni LGB and I had a lot of trouble trying to push the idea that we should make it clear straight people are allowed to come too.

                The problem there is that many straight men think that they must obviously be irresistable to gay men, as such they don't want the attention that would come with going to a LGB meet.
                One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

                  True, though we actually have straight people come - and of course it's going to be mainly straight girls, I just thought it'd be good if we subtly let people know anyone is allowed to come in our posters. More people are likely to come if they know they're allowed to bring their straight friends.

                    Jon,

                    I'm on the committee of the Swansea Uni LGB and I had a lot of trouble trying to push the idea that we should make it clear straight people are allowed to come too.
                    The York LGB Committee has been all-but-ostracised by the NUS LGB Campaign for this very reason; the YUSU LGB Campaigns Committee has, since last year, had provision for one "open place" (ie, non self-defining). This appears to be heresy amongst the powers-that-be at NUS LGB.

                    Fortunately I hear that there's been a slight swing towards the centre after LGB Conference this year; I can't say I'm disappointed to see the back of extremist bigot Daniel Murphy.

                      The problem with LGBs are that they are sometimes hijacked by the politically ignorant and closed-minded (and either v camp or v butch, depending on their gender).

                        why do young gays hate older gays?

                        i'm with tuberski. the biggest issue will be acceptance by society. most liberals and moderates are probably more than willing to accept it, but it's the very vocal christian conservatives that will make the most noise.

                        i believe that once homosexuality is completely accepted by the mainstream, that monogamous relationships will increase in frequency. less fear of discovery/reprisals --> more trust --> stronger relationships --> monogamous relationships.

                          I am wary towards older gay men, mainly because they can be VERY pushy when they're going after you. The other day I was in a pub when this old man started groping my chest - I was just standing chatting to a straight friend of mine.

                          It's even worse on the internet. 'Hi, I'm 50 and totally out your age range but here's a picture of my ****!'

                            Exactly, RJ.

                            You should see the volume and explicitness of mail I get from 30+ year old men.

                            It's disturbing...
