I was wondering why my initial comment was passed by without notice and then I run across it here.

That was an excellent discussion. Thanks to everyone that contributed.

Now on the next topic, then (as suggested by a rather stimulating discussion on Towleroad):

Is there unacceptable discrimination, judgmentalism, intolerance of more feminine gay men by more masculine gay men, and vice-versa?



(Don't know whether that will have any traction here, but it sure has sparked a doozie of a debate over there.)

Which one is it assumed would be considered the more "light-skinned," assuming that's a factor?

The masculine dudes are the light-skinned bunch ... in that, the argument goes, they can fit in seamlessly with straight society and hide out there. Flamers have less luck with that.

That's because of the sequins, ducky. :p

From a hetero perspective, I'd say that more masculine men and more feminine women don't have much in common with their less-so counterparts, and vice-versa. As a not-so-girly girl, I can honestly say that I am not drawn to girly girls as friends, which makes sense as our viewpoints are very different. Whether this translates to open hostility...well....yeah it sometimes does. ;)

Home Depot FTW

Well I'm glad we just bought our bbq grill from Home Depot then :D

I think Home Depot does a lot of good things for the communities they are in. They hold a lot of neat classes. Plus they build the set for Game Day!

Great Anti-Gay-Bullying song by Rise Against. Very Powerful.
