What I am saying is that I am not homophobic. It's as simple as that.wytbishop wrote:So what you're saying then is, that the fact that you and your friends have decided amongst yourselves that it's ok to perpetuate steriotypes as long as it's "funny" totally and unequivocally negates the fact that I, a person who also has many friends from all walks of life, find this thread offensive.
I don't want to make a really big deal here, but you're not the only one with a valid opinion on the topic and your sense of what's ok doesn't supercede mine.
If you find it offensive, that's your place to feel that way. It doesn't change my stance on it, nor should it. As it is, there is nothing stereotypical about using the word "Gay" to describe something you find distasteful or annoying. In addition, the only "funny" thing about it is when people believe they have offended my friends(who are in fact homosexual), and they aren't offended at all.
I believe you misinterpreted what I wrote, I hope that this cleared it up a little bit.
