Mac Mickmanus Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 *Deleted post edited out* Oh, I made a joke . I look forward to the day when we can make jokes about homosexuality in the same way we make jokes about heterosexuality . That day seems to be a long way off . And BTW , joking about a person having a sexual relationship with another person isn't "condemning " it , but I will only make jokes about men having relationships with females in the future , so as not to upset anyone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems you wish you could freely make that joke despite knowing that it was deleted. Edited April 29, 2023 by ozimoron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you be offended if you stated that you had two lesbians living next door to you and I asked whether you "had" both of them . Would you get offended and upset and distraught about that ?

You didn't say it to me and my reaction is irrelevant. I'm not a gay person and couldn't pass judgment. I did point out that it was deleted and you are getting awfully close to questioning a moddy decision here, not to mention restating a deleted comment.

bendejo Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 *Deleted post edited out* In case you are genuinely asking a question: "Proud" in this case means lack of fear or shame, taking a stand against those who would call them inferior for being different than themselves. Biggest International Pride Event to Take Place in Pattaya I doubt it. Even Rhode Island (the smallest state in the US) has it beat I think RI doesn't even have this many residents! I wondered if this really was a pride event until I saw the beer promo in the lower-left corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVENKEEL Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 It's quite humorous how one group, a very small group has become so protected. We can make fun of old big bikers, you know the ones who ride loud choppers around and there's no outside interference on the words. We make fun of old guys with very young G/F's, no problem. So, why is it that when the topic gears towards gays that you have to be real, real careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russia, almost all of Africa, almost all of the Caribbean, China, the Middle East as mentioned, the majority of Latin America, vicious right wing backlash in the US, etc. To assert that LGBT have special protection is just wrong.

Of course very welcome as spectators at Gay Pride parades. But not at circuit parties. As mentioned before they are completely different things. Circuit parties are designed for specific types of gay men that don't even include the majority of gay men. Also circuit parties are definitely for adults only.

Jingthing Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) Pattaya gay Pride parades will never be very big but its possible that commercially promoted circuit parties here could be quite big. There are international circuit party gays that travel all over the world to attend such parties. Do they have trust funds? Thus the word circuit. Plus the huge potential pool of wealthier Bangkok gays who can get here easily. Edited April 30, 2023 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to google 'circuit party', and seem to be a not so inclusive party, by people constantly complaining about inclusiveness LOL "Circuit party Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Circuit_party While open to anyone, the parties are generally viewed as social events primarily for physically fit and masculine-identified white gay men."

Circuit parties don't represent the whole LGBT world. As mentioned before they are designed to be exclusionary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understood, though I do find that as a bit hypocritical. Does seem to be a common thread with special interest groups. Pushing inclusiveness, until it invades their world.
