Gay segregation, community building & phobism

If they weren't openly gay, they wouldn't get threatened.

But I don't know what gay people think and are like.

Errr...you can be gay and working class Atahualpa.

I was working class before I admitted to myself I was gay.

And I can't honestly say that what I think, or how I think has changed greatly from pre-gay to gay. It's just I'm more honest with myself about my sexuality, and feel that a tremendous burden was lifted from me.

I can only compare it with when I used to go to confession, and the feeling of ease after.

What exactly is it that you imagine we think about, given that I have no idea what MrFun or Boris are thinking, for instance?

I don't think we're plotting a Queer Eye makeover of the hetero world.

If you weren't openly a *****, neither would you.

hmm no I didn't miss that. But as with any other case as well, I don't turn my believe level 180° with just one source, which in addition is called Gay Newspaper (and therefore _probably_ has much more interest to make it look that way), I would be considered quite an "opinion hoper" if I'd adopt to that right away.

Now please don't misunderstand me that I want to dismiss this as nonsense or anything like that. It's just that _with every other subject as well_, if something I hear is going the opposite way of what I feel I am much more reluctant to make it an elementary point in my believes.

But okay, point taken, I have to inform myself and make sure that I get a good overview of the situation. If you want to reproach me for something, then take the fact that I haven't gone out much on the internet and searched for "gay matters" for myself. But before you do, I am about to google

I think I am still thinking too much in my old categories. Good you pointed that out!

You live the straight one.

Like hell I do. My lifestyle, up to an including trying to get laid, has alot more in common with your typical twenty-something Swedish gay guy than with Kim the heterosexual NK farmer.

So you've met him too?

He was eating grass and trying to avoid government experiments the last time I saw him.

I was going to say the exact same thing, but you beat me to it

I'd watch it with the personal threats - you're already on a warning from Ming.

I doubt that was meant as a personal threat, he just pointed out why nobody in this thread likes you

Well you're all homophiles here. Dissenting opinion is banned.

It's hard being in the minority, isn't it? You would get along all right here if you wouldn't flaunt your opinions so openly

It wasn't a personal threat. It was a general observation. And I'm on no warning from Ming.

Hypocrisy, thy name is PA.

I still have that lovely PM you sent me a while back. I could forward it to che for his amusement.
