By “what she does for me”, you mean cook for you, do your laundry, keep the house clean. U hallina, mhux zgur qatt ma qbadt mopp f’idejk.

You don’t have to pity any homosexual. You have no right to pity anyone.

But then again, since you’re straight, you feel that you have an automatic right to pity anyone who is different to you.

Furthermore, “I accept them” is completely wrong. You are NO ONE to accept someone.

By saying I accept them you are automatically implying that you are superior and better. So get a grip on yourself and get over yourself.

You’re so right It was quite silly of me to assume it was the SDM. Should have said “Pulse rivals” and let people decide who they are.

But don’t you agree that the people calling others “pufta” are more guilty than the people taking offence at it?

[Daphne – How tedious this is turning out to be. No, it is not necessarily ‘Pulse rivals’ either. It is probably somebody who doesn’t like the individuals in Pulse, and that could be anybody. If I scrawl the word ‘pufta’ across a Jon Bon Jovi concert poster that doesn’t make me a Jon Bon Jovi rival, just somebody who doesn’t like Jon Bon Jovi. I must say that from the little I saw of the speaker on the video, I can imagine being a fellow 18-year-old and being sorely tempted to do the same, though I would choose another insult. I don’t know who the people who scrawled the word are, so I can’t discuss them. On the other hand, I know exactly who’s taking offence: he has a name, a face, and calls himself progressive.]

The bus-cading at the end is just bizarre – what are they celebrating?

Nothing to understand.Most people who just read the headline will automatically assume that the word “pufta” was used by the progressives not the SDM.
Misleading for a reason obviously.

Can’t believe anyone took it the other way around.I mean at most both are guilty of the same thing.

[Daphne – Why do you assume it was the SDM?]

I do not want to make a polemic out of this so I admit I might be wrong in some of the things I wrote,and I thank Daphne for pointing them out, I am surely not right all the time but only most of the time. I assure you that humility is one of my hidden virtues.

I don’t know why you bothered to answer his comment. Silvio : do you beat up your wife occasionally just to let her know who’s the head of the household (or do you prefer to be called the breadwinner) ?

Your comeback to Silvio is of course spot on, but have you noticed that no gay person has bothered comment?

That’s because we are completely bored of such people and actually he is the one who has my pity.

Whilst most gay people have moved on and living their life and and flung the closet door wide open, people like Silvio are still contemplating if they should accept them or not.

As for heterosexual men feeling threatened, I can say that if my straight friends are threatened, they are hiding it from me very well. From experience, straight men who are sexually and emotionally secure and confident have no problem with gay men.

Of course I wouldn”t reject them. I would accept them as they are,but that would still not change the way I look at homosexuality.

[Daphne – That is not accepting them as they are. If you object to homosexuality, you object to any homosexual grandchild you might have. The child will grow up to know it, and you will find yourself the one rejected. You see, this is what you don’t get. You think that you, as a heterosexual man, are the one with the Godgiven right to accept or reject things and people. It never occurs to you for a moment that you might be rejected for your views, possibly even by those close to you. It is absolutely impossible for a man of your age with a large family and a wide circle of friends and acquaintance to know nobody who is a gay man. You might think you are avoiding them, but perhaps it’s just that they’re avoiding you.]

Would a father or mother reject their child because he is a convicted criminal? Of course not,but that wouldn’t be condoning criminality.

[Daphne – Crimanlity is a choice. Also, it is a….crime. So while you would be perfectly justified in rejecting a son or daughter who had chosen to murder somebody or traffic in drugs, you have no justification for rejecting a son or daughter who is gay, simply because you don’t like homosexuality and the idea of homosexual relationships revolts you. Also, it is interesting that you see yourself as the one in a position to accept or reject, not realising that others are at the same time deciding whether to accept or reject you. It should occur to you that if you have a homosexual grandson, he might actually reject YOU for your views.]

i repeat I am not against homosexuals, as a matter of fact I pity them. What I am against is when they seem to be proud of it and they use it to attract sympathy and demand things that makes them feel priviliged.

I note what you answered my question, why women tend to support homos, more than men. You sound that you do it just to get your own back.

[Daphne – Own back? You misinterpret me. Women know what it’s like to be at receiving end of discrimination and misogyny. So OBVIOUSLY, we have empathy with men who are at the receiving end of discrimination and homophobia. But to be brutally honest, gay men tend to be better at conversation than straight men are, though this is of course a generalisation.]

I feel you are wrong as to consider us as your”common enemy” we are not ,as a matter of fact most of us men have only one aim in life, to make our partners as happy and protected as much as possible..

[Daphne – Oh Silvio, you are such a fossil, really. Straight from the age when women looked to men to make them happy and for protection. And what a high price women paid for that, which is why younger women have opted out of the deal. ]

We gave these people too much. We should never have allowed them to drive. Or given them the vote. Big mistake. Now look what’s happened to the euro.
