      Are you refering to Ann Arbor or our society?

        One or two gay shows? Wow. Progress.
        That's not the point!

        The point is: If a bunch of straight people want to get together and have a parade and call it a straight pride parade, they should be able to without being seen as racists or bigots if homosexuals are similarly allowed to have a homosexual pride parade.

        If a bunch of white guys get together and want to start a white student union - they should be able to as long as there are allowed to be such things as black student unions.

        etc.

        Ideally, there wouldn't be clubs with exclusive names like that. Ideally, we would all just coexist without even thinking about those things. But if you're going to have one, don't make a double standard about the other.

          Oops, I submited that post before I was done


          But anyways. the term "black" encompasses all african heritages and culture, it's a broad term which is used mainly because they all share the same history on this land. "white" encompasses all european cultures (and american - if you want to differentiate the two), and technically speaking there are "white pride" events where people celebrate some kind of european heritage (whether it be german, russian, irish, or whatever).

          And yes the USA, Canada, Australia, and most of europe are 'white countries'. Which is probably white the term 'white' can't be used as broadly as 'black', here.

            Touche. But still, homosexuals are marginalized in our society, whether you'd like to admit it or not.

                    I can name 2 TV shows that involves gay couples.
                    I can name about 200 or so TV shows that involve straight couples.

                    That's unbalanced, and shows that one is being marginalized in favor of the other.

                      100:1 ratio. What's the ratio of heterosexuals to homosexuals? 10:1?

                        So goes the conventional wisdom. Various studies have estimated anything from 3% to 20%, if I recall correctly.

                          in other words, probably about 10%? Or - 1 in 10?

                            Well, yeah... I was just saying that there are no hard numbers, and estimates vary... you feeling okay? You seem to be having some eye problems...

                                Lucky for you I just finished my Ophthamology sequence... not just sit back and relax while I apply these eye drops.
