The Gay Thread

[SzczerbiakManiac]

I've brought this discussion here because it seems more appropriate here than in the Bin Laden thread.

I think that's a status you assigned to it unfairly. There is no historical basis for that equivalency.

• Homosexuals have not gone out at night in packs for decades (centuries?) with specific intention of finding a heterosexual to kill because they find their "lifestyle" disgusting and call them breeders while doing so.
• Cars full of drunk homosexuals don't ride past a heterosexual couple holding hands on the street and throw bottles at them while shouting "breeder".
• Homosexual juries don't convict heterosexuals of "crimes against nature" and quietly mutter "breeder" under their breath as they pass sentence.
• Heterosexual bar patrons have never been arrested for opposite-sex dancing, protested in the form of a riot, and had those activities reported in the newspaper the next day as an "outbreak of breedery".

The word "breeder" implies no more inherent malice than does "woman".

"I met a woman at the store."
vs.
"Crap, I'm stuck behind a woman driver."

Context & intent are everything.
