I would agree with your statement...had I made a statement of disrespect to the GGs or SOs on the forum.Thank you for the compliment. However, my point also seems to have been lost on you. The statement that "they feel threatened, so it gets their dander up." in reference to GGs and SOs when faced with the concept of a homosexual man, is highly offensive. It thoroughly implies that they are insecure enough with their own relationships and sexualities, that the notion of a man loving another man, rather than a woman, would automatically send them into a defensive tizzy. Almost to say that the automatic reaction would be "Dear lord! The potential for rejection or disinterest from a man I most likely am not attracted to anyway?! However shall I cope?! Gather the torches girls, let's express homophobia to keep our playing field open!"Your words are eloquent enough...but my original point has somehow escaped you.
Had I not witnessed intolerance expressed in such a manner being thrown in BOTH directions many times in real life, and often to the emotional detriment of those on the recieving end, I most likely would not have a problem with this. However, I have, and so I do. And I stand by my request that you acknowledge that your statement too was a version of discrimination, and no less serious than the others shown elsewhere on this forum.
