How freaking Crazy-Stupid is this bitch?
 

From an actual Dear AbbyDoes that dumb broad actually think circumcising her grandson will make him straight?!? :eek: :rolleyes: :eek:

I'm at a loss for words to describe how stupid this person must be....

But I must give Dear Abby kudos for her response. :snap:

Words escape me.
:D

I wonder what she'd come up with if she thought even more.

I'd be scared to think of what else she could come up with!! I wonder what she'd do if her granddaughter was a lesbian!

I'm so glad she's not my grandma!

As my grandmother is in Missouri, it wouldn't surprise me if she'd written this. Do I have any 15 year old cousins?

Honestly, I'm wondering if she doesn't see the biggest problem as the lack of circumcision. I'll bet she was *shocked* that didn't happen because in her mind it's What People Do and this is an excuse to get her way on that issue. Just my experience that people who present "problems" like this usually give more airtime to the lesser of their concerns.

Good lord, that is frightening. What is she going to do if she does think that would "cure" it? Force him to get circumcised? The lack of foreskin=straight logic is just puzzling.

Well, clearly she is ill-informed. I think Abby's response was spot on and one can hope that this Grandmother will do some further investigation and accept her grandson, without judgement no matter straight/gay/bi.

I know a few gay Jews.......

Do you think that major media coverage of this type of anti-gay rhetoric helps or hurts the cause of gay rights?

I would say it helps. It shows people that ignorance is no excuse and gets them thinking about the issue.

And that leads me to wonder. Was the "granny" real or simply another activist who found a new way to push his cause by sending a fake letter to Dear Abby.

I say give it a try...what do you have to lose? Besides some dick skin, I mean.

I can beat that! I once dated a gay jewish nerd who had his own Starfleet uniform!

I wish more people could have your wisdom. :snap:

A friend of mine was having problems with his mom. He thought that she was upset that he was dating a man. Wrong. She was happy he found someone. She said something like, 'I don't care that you're dating a guy, I care that you're dating a goy.'
I thought that was funny.
:D

In today's newspaper, there was a letter from an elderly woman to this doc who runs a syndicated column. She was wondering why it was necessary to have a Pabst test when she was no longer sexually active. The doc was very kind in his response, but he did point out that beer wasn't a necessary component to the procedure.

Pabst Test!

I can't get those any more since I quit drinking.

Oldie but a goldie:

Guy goes to the Doctor and says he wants to be castrated. The Doctor tries to talk him out of it but the guy is dead set on getting one. The Doctor grants his wish and schedules the operation.

When the guy awakes from his operation he sees that there is another man in the bed next to his. "What are you in here for?" he asks the man. The man answers "circumcision"...............the guy slaps his forhead and repeats what the man said..................."CIRCUMCISION; that's the word!"

I appreciate the fact the old(er) folks are not comfortable discussing many things that today are generally held to be commonplace. (Hell, on I Love Lucy, they couldn't even say the word "pregnant"!) But what really slays me about this woman is her leap of "logic" that there is a connection between foreskin and The Gay. :rolleyes:

I need that sign. NEED

I was thinking t-shirt, but agree... NEED!

And and ye shall receive :)
