So if your son or daughter came home and said they were gay would you mind?The Fireman wrote:ok..

Bring it back on topic.
Of course you missed the entire point but you have done nothing other than be sarcastic and deliberately take this thread off topic.
So what's your problem?
Got an issue LGBTI community do we?
Well come on then! Out with it!
Your disrespect to the Police force somes up the type of person you are.
FYI - saying that the death of two policemen at work is a tragedy although no different than families that lose loved ones at work everyday is not disrespect.
It doesn' mean I disrespect them as people but I don't put them on pedestals either.
Sorry I don't worship authority but I understand you do - which says a lot about the person you are.

Without being rude I think the ideas are a little weird. The death of anyone at work is tragedy but for those who protect us is even worse IMO of course. Silk Miller was so sad. The difference between a normal death at work is it is usually an accident even if it was avoidable where as those 2 was just cold blooded murder.

Alright a death at work. Yep you are right. They are exactly the same even if one is cold blooded murder. Im guessing you don't like authority?

I don't really see the harm, and if it has potential beneift for some in the communtiy then why not?
Our gay friends are very funny, I would love to have them come to the footy with me and bag the s*** out of everyone. One of our friends would love to sit in the cheer squad and watch the star wars bar scene going on around them. I'm not sure I would patronise them by asking them to come to the gay acceptance round though. One of them suggests that footy is a way straight guys can ogle fit young men with out coming to terms with an underlying sexual orientation... I definitely won't ask them to come.

The only thing I'm scared of is that there are people around like you who can not tell the difference between the risk of emergency workers to normal workers.
Re: Gay Pride Match
Yeah, the razor sharp wit is too funny.

Hopefully not too many think it's patronising and that it comes from a good place. Can understand how it could be interpreted that way.

Re: Gay Pride Match
You're posting unsupportive comments on a thread about a gay pride match and I asked you a perfectly legitimate question about whether you would mind if you're son or daughter were gay.The Fireman wrote:??

Pretty simple question but so far you've avoided answering the question which suggests you're motivated to post negatively out of prejudice and not just because you don't think its a good idea as you've tried to represent.
Happy for you set the record straight but alarm bells are ringing.

Re: Gay Pride Match
And as I told you the question is irrelevant and I have no desire to quizz you about yourself or family members as it has nothing to do with this debate. ok so you say I am motivated by prejudice yet you have no proof of any prejudice, do you see how silly you look ?stjay wrote:

So if a Gay man told you he didn't want a Gay round what would be your reply then ?
as I told you earlier you really don't deserve any of my time but just wanted to see how far you could bury yourself.

You'd be a pretty disconnected parent to need them to come home
and declare their sexuality.

Hopefully not too many think it's patronising and that it comes from a good place. Can understand how it could be interpreted that way.
I think our mates know we are straight but just like to s*** us back a bit for years of copping crap themselves. I don't mind them stirring me up, it's only confronting if there are some latent issues there I reckon. I can give as good as I get with out over stepping the line of offensiveness I reckon. Most of the gay people I know have social lives that aren't based around running kids to sporting events or baby sitters so footy just isn't a high priority.
I do know some dikes that are huge footy fans though and take their kids to every Dees game in Melbourne. It will probably mean more to a family like that with their kids feeling accepted more than them. They are never really teased at school because kids are pretty accepting but the way society views families is pretty rigid.

The question is perfectly ligitimate and relevant given the topic of the thread and your stance on it.
The fact that you've avoided the simple question which could have so easily been answered, in so many way to show you're not about prejudice and yet your silence is deafening.
Shame on you.
You need to work through your contradictions and stop bringing your prejudice onto this thread OR have the courage to own it.
Go and comment on Tom Lee or Adam Schneider's poor disposal but spare me your bigotry!
And this is exactly why we need a gay pride match to fight against the prejudice the LGBTI community face everyday.
Thank you sir, you totally proved my point.
We're done.

Re: Gay Pride Match
It happens. I know of two friends of my son who are both 'out' amongst friends and some family but both are not out to their fathers. They are worried about the reaction. Very sad.WindSister wrote:You'd be a pretty disconnected parent to need them to come home

Re: Gay Pride Match
Yep.
Brutal.
... and i feel for those two young fellas.
Maybe though , the two dads are not as 'disconnected' to the reality of things
as the boys believe.
... but of course , on the other hand , maybe they are.
i remember my boy commenting ,
"shouldn't my sexual orientation be obvious"
... which i easily 'n comfortably agreed with.
(but then i've always held the view , first articulated before i was sexually active ,
and much to the horror of my peer group of the day)
that i saw 'humans' as naturally bi - sexual creatures.
... and given that we are now , 40 odd years further down the wallaby track ,
i still think my observation / knowing is correct.
