Why is it that homophobes are obsessed with the sex details of gays? Something they just can't stop picturing for some strange reason, I guess.

And your basing your conclusion on what quantitative data exactly? Or are you just pulling things out of your . . . . No need to answer; it's all too clear.

When you failed High School you shouldn't be talking about things like this.

I actually I'm gay and that's not all I do. I don't wine at all. I demand. I am as American as you are and I (should) have all of the same rights you do.

By the way, since you think all gays do is whine, I will let you know that I run a very successful computer training company, make money hand over fist, travel, dine out in great restaurants and have loads of fun with friends and family.

What DO you do besides whine that you are opposed to letting your fellow Americans have the same rights you enjoy?

Can't remember your own post? You stated the following:

Mlassoff offered a refutation to your ridiculous claim by offering examples of what he does in his own life as a man who happens to be gay and does not just "whine." It's called an argument. Get a life yourself and an education while you're at it.

Hey dude... Read the post I was responding to. And seriously, whatever you do for money on the internet... Keep it to yourself. I am assuming it involves Craigslist and small farm animals.

i refuse to accept any special definition for "homophobia" that isn't present in any other phobias.
but even if i were to accept the special priviledges given to the word, i do not discriminate against or have prejudices towards gays. i'm sure you're having fun assuming things since you have no idea what you're talking about.

and i find your remarks about "aristotle" very cute, you'll impress anybody age 17 or younger with posts like those. unfortunately to anybody that's gotten passed their freshman year of college all you're doing is bringing up fond memories about their first undergraduate elective courses

and surely since you're quoting m-w you wouldn't disagree with their definition of the word 'statement'
1 : something stated: as a : a single declaration or remark : assertion b : a report of facts or opinions
2 : the act or process of stating or presenting orally or on paper

which is what I've done. not to be confused with an argument, which is not what we're having. this is a pissing contest on who can quote random internet dictionaries.
with that said i'm going to have dinner now.

enjoy yourself

Doesn't make the definitions any less true.

Your own words reveal otherwise. Or are you suggesting that you freely state such opinions with the gays that you work with and go to school with? I'm sure they just love you. No, I have a feeling that you've trained yourself to keep your homophobia to yourself, at least around gays.

"aristotle"? Why would you put Aristotle in quotes? Have you never heard of Aristotle or do you not know how quotations function? Maybe both?

Opinion is an argument. Oh, I actually feel bad for you at this point.

Good luck using a fork. I know you can do it, if you really try.

This hatred and bigotry will die off, just as it did for other groups before it. One day will look back on shame at how we treated our fellow man.
