But I think unlike you I wish that the good people that are there work very hard to make things better.

It's not porn either. But what I don't like a lot lot more is the TOXIC HOMOPHOBIA that has emerged so rampantly in response to their unfortunate incident here.

Congratulations on your role in freeing the Travelling_Butts Good shout there IBH. Previous winner of the 'poster-of-the-year' poll. About to crash through the 100k post barrier. Regular poster! Let's hear it for JT. I have read all JT's posts and I think his stance has changed somewhat. He has definately mellowed over the duration of the thread. Personally I was all for giving them a gentle slap on the wrist, paying them some inconvenience dosh, taking a few snaps with the authorities (fully clothed of course), a wai and wishing them 'bon voyage'. But it didn't happen. That's life. But I would like to think that the Junta did take notice if they were 'listening-in' (so to speak) to the posts.

JT does not represent gay men either. He has no more right to speak on their behalf than does Katy Perry. Putting yourself in a group, claiming to represent them and then claiming to be a victim is sooooooo overdone. You can't call everyone that disagrees with your (or your lifestyle) an "phobe" of some sort. It's just laziness and the lack of a real argument of any sort. It's along the lines of this "all white people are racist" crap that's going around. The world is great, Trump is the leader, the 2 bottom flashers are out of Thailand, balance has been restored and hopefully there will be fewer hairy crack pics that I see on FB now...

In your eyes it might not be 'art' but could it be seen as artistic? Perhaps not art or even artistic as in Van Gough or Turner, but could not this intrinsic body art be interpreted as artistic motivation? Is there not something semmetrical about their pics? After all a woman has two breasts, a man has two testicles, a chicken has two legs and a rabbit two ears. It's nature in its basic form.

There are guys on here that I have never shared a similar view with on any topic but I still look forward to their posts because they offer thought provoking responses. They raise the bar for me and the topic. I have even more appreciation for guys that bring humor to the thread. OTOH, there are guys like you who go quick for personal attack without any real substance to the topic. An example being your two post contribution to this thread. But I will continue to read your posts for atleast a bit longer so I can better understand if your 2:1 ratio is the result of intelligent responses or just zingers. By your third post you really should have made some effort to address the topic so make your next one count. ;-) Cheers you need to get out more :) - is that a zinger?
