San Diego Gay Man's Chorus.

I'm all for equality, but seriously get over yourself.
I'm not really sure what business it is of anyones concerning what they want to go by.

I always thought U2 was kinda lame, but whatever.

Yes. Everyone should have their sexuality, their manhood challenged and laugh at themselves! Good sport, fun times had by all. Right? No one but no one likes to be attacked where the intent is not welcomed. And I again ask, how funny would it be if someone did this to you? And did it in a place and situation where you could not retort or respond? Yeah, it's just a well-intentioned and harmless joke...

The same people who are distraught over this apparent mistake would be melting down had the Padres invited the San Diego Heterosexual Chorus.

Just something to contemplate.

You are going to encounter *******s throughout your life consistently.

If hearing someone say you sing like a girl is the worst thing to happen to you, consider yourself lucky.

I just think it's insane that such a thing even exists.

But this is 2016 and every group needs their own thing...Sorry I just find it silly.

People have grouped themselves over similar likes, interest or whatever forever.

A college may go by University of _______ men's choir.

They are actually pretty good. They seem to be very happy doing what they do. They sing Christmas song and bring joy to others.

It is not like these are annoying activists who are forever offended or something.

I think some people hear "gay men chorus" they automatically assume they sing like a girl.
