Oh .. ok ... I shared this with Chance and Adrian offlist, thinking  
how far away from the purpose of G3-G5 we've gone astray ...

FWIW:

...

Thought I'd respond offlist since we're so way off / list /  
topically ...

What people do to gay folks like myself is so akin to racist acts that  
I no longer separate it out.

Homosexuality is genetic as I believe a person's race is also  
determined. I've been told gay folk's hypothalamus is 10% smaller than  
"straight" folks. This causes same sex attraction, as well as a  
slowing down in aging, and maybe even a childlike friendliness or  
playfulness so many gay folks exhibit ...

People who discriminate against gays are really discriminating against  
a genetic predisposition ... I just feel the result is the same as  
racial discrimination.

True ... homosexuality is a genetic characteristic that shows up  
across all races.

Its not really racism ... to make my points, though, the similarities  
are just too close too ignore.

I'm now too tired to respond further tonight ...

I do thank you for labeling it what it is ("fagbook") ... gay bashing.

Best wishes!

Artist (Painter, Musician, & Dancer , oh my!)
Mac Enthusiast, To Say the Least (oh my!)
Pet Owner (Cat & Dog, oh my!)
Not So Much a Broadway Musical Fanatic (oh my! I may loose may Gay ID  
Card)
& Queer (oh my!)

Someone called me that for the first time when I was 10 years old ...  
got right up in my face and called me a "Q-U-E-E-E-E-R-R-R" for  
watching him shoot a basketball and admiring his form ... that's when  
I also got the nickname "Billy Car".

It meant Queer, and came about partially because my Dad taught Driving  
Instruction, and had a car with 2 steering wheels, 2 brakes, 2  
clutches, 2 gas pedals. Maybe that invoked a touching sensation via  
the feet that reminded the name callers of being touched improperly  
some time in their early lifetime? something they could not control at  
the time?

So now every time I respond in the G3-G5 and other lists with my e- 
mail "[email protected]" ...

So where does "He's Not Gay, He's just British" come from?
