Then either you live in a cave with no access to electronic or print media of any kind or you willfully turn a blind eye to that which you want to pretend doesn't exist.

But if two women smooch, or god forbid two old gays with ZZ top beards...

Disneyland, now there's a great example. There isn't one single gay Disney couple. I think Minney Mouse should marry Snow White and live in the castle with the seven gay dwarfs! It's better than shacking up with Mickey like that brazen hussy has done for 50 years.

All this contention about gay cakes is just a smoke screen by conservatives pushing their hetro lifestyle. Everyone knows REAL gays don't eat cake. They nibble celery and carrots lest they gain weight.

If you think about it most criminals are the offspring of the hetrosexual lifestyle choice made by their parents. The prison system is filled with the children of parents who follow the religious lifestyle.

Maybe it isn't gay people who are the problem. When was the last time a lesbian started a war? When was the last time a gay guy drove a car bomb into a market in Iraq?

Kinda makes you think huh?
Why is a church heterosexual, nothing would stop you from having a church. Same thing with your Homosexual bar, you could open one.

A movie is just that, go see a Homosexual movie. Men and Women hugging is just normal.

Why would you force Disney to make Homosexual characters? Forcing your beliefs? I thought Homosexuals were not doing this.

Forcing people to do something against their beliefs, now who is being picked on?

Everyone comes from a Heterosexual so why wouldn't criminals? How do you know all criminals and terrorists are Heterosexual?

What's your point? Are you suggesting that the gay bar the OP mentioned went out of business because of some anti-gay bar rules or regulations? From what the OP posted we know 3 things:

1. The bar went out of business
2. They refused service to heterosexual folks and
3. No one sued over being refused service

So exactly how did democracy unfairly select this business for failure?

It was no big deal to me because I just had to find a mate in order to join in.

The heterosexual lifestyle is pretty awesome. I still enjoy showing it off.

I think it's great that gay people can join in now. They can have the same kind of happiness I've always had access to.
+1. And for all the people who are bashing OP's thread, he/she is being sarcastic.

Oh, and I'm sorry if my "pointless" thread offends your sense of what should be discussed on the internet. I mean considering the like page after page of mostly anti gay threads here.

I suggest you build a playhouse and call it a Gay Bar.

What percentage of C-D would you estimate is gay? Your thread represents a very small percentage.

It's been said that as human beings, we have a lizard or reptilian brain that responds to certain primal urges. Food is one. Sex and reproduction is definitely another. This underlying, pre-programmed disposition to respond to sexual imagery is so strong, it has been used for over 100 years in advertising.

It is a successful marketing strategy because sex sells, always will.

Does it really mean that heterosexuals promote their lifestyle when they are trying to sell products?
Even in the case of that "lady lover" Chobani yogurt commercial I posted?

Nah... I think they turned off a lot of people with that commercial.

I won't stop buying the yogurt, but that commercial turned me way off.

If I had a masculine wife, I may actually question my own sexuality as masculinity is not attractive to most heterosexual males. If I was gay I couldn't imagine being with the guy next door that looked like the girl from down the street.
