Is no one "straight"?

[carsonshepherd]

I've no urge to go further into the thread. There's a reason I avoided it the first time 'round.

Hallelujah, babe.

Now, let's all just talk about butt fucking, kay?

There're a few topics I would find a bit more engaging, but I won't quibble.

Well then throw some of them out there! Quick before they get started again!

I was thinking of starting a new thread of things that make you gay.

1. Wizard of Oz memorabilia.
2. The homoerotic subtext of Batman and Robin.

Especially in YOUR closet... *shudder*

There are some lovely tricks and trappings in there ... but it's the footlocker you really want to watch our for.

Table manners. Fondness for pastel clothing. Civility.

There's a Wizard of Oz trivia game that I've been dying to purchase, but I have the distinct impression no one I know would play it with me.

In my experience quibbling can be fun, when done by responsible adults in a safe environment.

If nothing else, I take issue with the phrase, "if someone is to label themselves as such".

With, of course, all due homage to the gosling ... why? It's been rather less than a hundred years since people invented that label and the idea behind it.

Sorry, those years in the Deep South seem to have addled my brain. I can only say that there are those who disagree with you.

Yes, you are good at making sure to have "comments of contingency" as you put it, however statements such as this certainly do imply a great deal of, shall we say, negative feelings towards homosexuals.

But (and here's the confounding part), I don't have any negative feelings towards homosexuals... and talking about homosexuality, formally, is no more of an implication of hatred or condemnation than dissecting a cadavar is a personal statement about how humanity is terrible.

If nothing else, I take issue with the phrase, "if someone is to label themselves as such".

Given that there are lots that don't, its a good thing to keep in mind that self-identification as not just a social group, but a culture, may be a crucial factor in arguments concerning legality with regards to them.

It implies that one's sexuality has been chosen like a pair of shoes. I must admit, though, that my offense is colored by the times during which I didn't avoid such threads.

 

[NoJo]

I think think this is a good time to remind everyone that penises can also be used for peeing.

Sorry for the confusion, dear horsey. I was simply answering for myself and my own lovely little personality defects.

Hmmm. Fair enough. But I'd put in a fair word for the theory that sexuality as an absolute and a key element of one's public persona is a pretty new thing.

And quite often are, I'm told.

Agreed. As I said, my reactions here are quite tainted by the past.

I hope you have no disagreeable past experiences with people telling you that that goosey in your AV is adorable and looks like it needs a good and extensive nuzzling.

[BlackShanglan]

... and my own lovely little personality defects.

You have defects?!

Oh yes, that reminds me. Carson, your copy of "Oprah" magazine showed up at my house by accident ...

Shanglan

Well, I don't think so, but there are some poor misguided souls who would try to convince you otherwise.

(And yes, a good nuzzling is always welcomed. )

 

[minsue]

I would...

I love a good cliche...
