jackattack Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 No if I moved to iran and held 4th of July parades that would be to antagonize them. They are trying to attract other gays? What is it a recruitment drive? So your saying you don't go out and try and attract a girl as a partner? Essentially, your saying gays aren't allowed to have partners? I don't need my own parade to get a girl. No if I moved to iran and held 4th of July parades that would be to antagonize them. They are trying to attract other gays? What is it a recruitment drive? Nope it would be to celebrate the birth of your respective nation, only immature and petty people would deliberately do something like that to piss people off. My best friend is a homosexual, I've been to a gay pride parade with him before, they are just their to have fun, meet people like them and celebrate their sexuality. Also the whole "assless leather chaps" is just a stereotype, have you ever even been to a gay pride parade / festival before or are you just pulling random [cabbage] facts out of your arse? I live in SF. Not all of them are like that but a hell of a lot of them are. My carbon footprint is bigger than yours...and you know what they say about big feet.

Ginger_Warrior Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I live in SF. Not all of them are like that but a hell of a lot of them are. Did you ever consider some of them stay indoors where you can't see them, like heterosexual couples do? Of course the more extrovert of them will go out dressed up. Again, I fail to see how this should offend you. Are they grabbing your head and forcing you to stare at their jeans? In fact, I don't know why I'm spending so much time arguing with you. It's becoming apparent you have a blind fear of anyone different to yourself. It's clear this mentality has been ingrained into your mind since you were a little boy. Therefore, even attempting to reason with you is like talking to a brick wall. Except I am asking myself, if you have this mentality, why did you bother coming onto a public forum with a proudly diverse range of opinions anyway? | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous1234 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Guys leave Jack alone, he isn't bashing gays about their sexuality. He's just saying it isn't necessary to have gay pride parades where everybody is wearing ridiculous clothing, because let's be honest; even if it is to attract another male, that's a bit extreme don't you think? Straight guys don't walk around in banana-hammocks to get girls (most don't anyway :roll: ) If Homosexuals had gay pride parades and wore normal clothing and acted normal, I bet a lot less people would care if they were gay or not. I'm not saying I want them to act 'normal' and turn straight. I'm saying they shouldn't have that annoying overdramatic feminine tone and talk about all their cashmier sweaters and the new boots that are on sale. I don't believe homosexuality for men means acting completely like a the stereotype for women plus more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also guessing you act different on this day and wear blue or red clothing? Well a gay pride day is a essentially the same as 4th of July to a Homosexual, so you therefore are being a hypocrite if you celebrate 4th of July by acting differently and wearing clothing you normally don't wear. Also it's been proven many homosexual men have a over active amount of feminine hormones than the average male, this leads to them speaking and acting more like a woman, they can't control it. Who are you to decide what people should speak like or act like, that kind of ignorance is what leads to everyone being "normal" where no such thing as individualism exists. :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warri0r45 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 The only problem I have with homosexuality is the expectation of having equal treatment. Everyone should be treated as human beings, but you can't expect to be classified as "normal" when you're not. It's like if Marilyn Manson showed up at a little girl's birthday party and expected not to receive any weird looks. If i were a homosexual, I don't think I'd want people to recognise me as "normal," I'd rather people get over this nonsense that everyone in society ought to be "normal." Theres a difference between just a regular guy who happens to be gay and the guys at the gay pride parade. What's your point, exactly? That everyone in society ought to adhere to jackattack's sense of normality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, no one likes being directly antagonised, but that's not what I was talking about. I was talking about the expectations of society for everyone to adhere to some nonsense fairytale of "normality." By the way, how do these particular gays antagonise you? How do they rub it in people's faces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackattack Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 ^^ I'm not saying they should try to be normal just respect other people. Did you hear about the gays who invaded a catholic church dressed in all kinds of weird costumes? I can't believe that the priest actually gave them the Eucharist. Thats the kind of thing I'm talking about. Theres not really anything wrong with a gay pride parade but is it necessary to be only wearing a thong waving a giant rainbow flag?

Personally, I'd respect other people just because that's the way I am. Those are my personal sensibilities that I've grown up with and developed over time. My personal approach would be to be respectful in the church (although, admittedly, I'd never go to one because it's of no interest to me) but as for the extravagant costumes of the gay pride parades, I couldn't care less what they wear. You may have a different opinion to mine. But do you think personal sensibilities are enough? Do you feel that it should be passed in law to "be respectful to other people"? If so, who determines what's respectful and what's not? If you should be legislated to wear more than a thong in a gay pride parade or to wear "normal" attire in church, should you legislate for everyone to say please and thank you as well?

Lenticular_J Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 The Fourth of July reference is completely unrelated, considering national pride really has nothing to do with sexuality (or, it hopefully doesn't). If I had a straight pride parade, odds are I'd end up on CNN or, God forbid, Nancy Grace. I wouldn't particularly like a man dancing around me in a banana hammock, but I wouldn't mind it too much.

Range_This11 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 I think the big question that every person who apposes homosexuality needs to ask themselves is: How is this affecting me? Sit down and think about it for awhile. How do people being gay affect my every day life? When you're done, let me know, because I know for a fact that you can't think of one valid reason why a homosexual is wrong for feeling the way he or she does and how it could possibly affect your every day life. People are people. There are going to be tall people, short people, skinny people, fat people, white, black, brown, red, yellow, and everything in between people. You need to grow up and realize there are more people in the world than just you and your opinions, and news flash: They ain't changin' for you.

re4p3r1 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Its hard to say whether something is right or wrong. Its not up to anyone to say whether its right or wrong people have their own opinions. Personally I dont have any problems with homosexuality but i know for a fact that there isnt much tolerance for it. if someone at my school announced their homosexuality they would get hazed a lot.

Nadril Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 How do they rub it in people's faces? With a penis. Its hard to say whether something is right or wrong. Its not up to anyone to say whether its right or wrong people have their own opinions. With some situations I would be inclined to agree with you. Homosexuality really is an entirely different story though, would you say that it is up to anyone to say if a certain race is right or wrong? If I had a straight pride parade, odds are I'd end up on CNN or, God forbid, Nancy Grace. This is ridiculous. Why would you need a straight pride parade? Certainly straight people are not getting treated wrongly because of their sexual orientation. There is a difference between doing a rally, or a march or a parade (or whatever you want to call it) for an actual cause and just having one. It isn't so much as them celebrating being gay as it is a statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should gay people get taxpayer money to dance around in pink and leather clothes when the city is going bankrupt? Care to back up those claims of them being trolls with some form of evidence? I'm yet to meet a homosexual person I don't get on with, they're usually nicer people than heterosexual males (wells that what I've found anyway) Why should a homosexual be respectful in a place that is condemning them? If you were in a building full of people talking disrespectively about America would you just sit down and be "respectful"? I highly doubt you would. Why should Asians, Mexicans, Europeans get money to hold days of celebration / pride? What makes them more deserving than a homosexual? Nothing, they're just people like a homosexual is. Minorities often hold pride days, that's why white pride days or heterosexual pride days are non-existent. Let the minorities celebrate being different to the majority, individualism and diversity is what keeps society running, can you imagine a society where everyone acted the same?

If I'm not mistaken is the Catholic church one of the most anti-homosexual of Christian churches? From the short time I followed that churches belief it certainly didn't seem like they endorsed them or encouraged them.
