Probably best to remind ourselves what sexuality actually means and whether or not it’s actually a subject for discussion on this forum.
I mean some of us or even a lot of us are parents, would you actually care if your child was gay or straight or would you just be happy that they were expressing themselves in a way that makes them happy.

Becoming like Lord of the flies round here.

Better than being a rocker.

My uncle was gay, lived in Brighton and loved a hollywood dancer/actor...

Not sure what that has to do with anything

You said the other day you read every post. How then have you missed the continued homophobic posts from a certain member?

I know a few posters have tried not to get involved along the lines of 'They'll burn down the synagogues at 6' o clock and we'll all go along like before' but surely the mods should be having a quiet word with the member?

Like I have said before I am not calling for a ban but blatant repeated homophobia has no place on the forum so a polite warning may be in order.

I'm thinking of becoming gay just so I can offend Velo without having to write anything.

I haven't missed them.

Maybe we've had a quiet word.

I don't read every post, I dont have time to. I know the mods try but it's a difficult task. That's why we have the report function, but hardly anyone uses it.

I know it is an impossible task and you guys do a great job. I hope you have had a quiet word.

And please don't mistake being disgusted as 'baiting'

Why is it that when things need to be debated threads get locked. Well done Leon and Adam for actually responding and saying what is happening. Sad if you see this as just some sort of petty dispute and supposed 'baiting' rather than the more serious nature of some threads. Similar to how racism gets laughed off etc.

The thread isn't locked to stifle debate but because it's going over ground already covered in a previous thread.

If you have converns please feel free to drop me, or any of the mods a DM or use the report post function.

Though I'm going to have to refer myself to the IMCC because cjay has just reported me!
