So I found out just recently that apparently the "Gay Games" exist as an alternative Olympics. That's right folks, being gay has so much to do with athletics that you must now be gay to enter their games.

Whether that's actually true or not -- needing to be gay -- is assumption on my part. But the fact remains that for some reason, we have athletic competitions between homosexuals based around being homosexual. Get your mind out of the gutter, right now, you silly fangirl you.

I hate that. In fact, I'm dead opposed to there being a 'Gay Games'. Not because it's somehow offensive that gay people would have their own 'games', but that our society is actually in favour of this self-segregation. Did we all miss the memo of common sense that described self-aggrandisment and segregation as BAD THINGS? apparently some members of the gay community (or its supporters) did.

Stop it already. Being gay has nothing to do with athletics. I can understand gay bars (common sexual interest), I can understand gay communities (common sexual orientation which branches out into fashion, accessories, etc), and I can understand a gay section in romance shelving at Chapters. But when we start having gay games, gay schools... It's out of control. I don't want my kids growing up thinking that being gay is somehow either glorious or weird. I want them to view other people by who they are, not their sexual orientation. Please, someone speak out against this with me. I don't hate gay people or have anything against them, but athletics? This is stupid.

I vote we bring back white people only washrooms. Those silly black people should learn that urinating and defecating has a lot to do with your race.

And this shit comes full circle. :P

If you want to be proud of your sexuality, great. Just great. I think you should just great it normally, but whatever. A seperate Olympics type thing for gays /isn't/ necessary, I agree. They're not physically handicapped, so they don't need a seperate set of games to compete with people their own levels.

Meh, I should probably read about this, but unless there's a damn good reason for it... Geez. :P

After reading their purpose... It sounds more like an 'anyone can join!' Olympics. But that makes me ask: Why not call it something else? I guess if you use the litteral meaning of the word Gay, it can work, though this was founded in the 80s... Ah well.

Today's media is becoming a sad, sad place. I can almost guarantee you FOX is going to televise it.

I'm with you 100%.

AGAINST.

Simple as that. Segregation = fucked up happenings.

"Get your mind out of the gutter, right now, you silly fangirl you."

Heh heh...

Anyway, I do agree with you.

*sigh* The gernal populus is stupid.

We live in a pathetic world...simple as that
It's really kind of sad

"Get your mind out of the gutter, right now, you silly fangirl you."

Heh heh...

Anyway, I do agree with you.

(grr, I don't know why my last comment posted as anonymous... evilness >.< I hope it works this time.)
