and how much she wants your whorish mom!

For the record, f*ck Tim Hardaway. He was a ****ty BB player and has the social skills of a stem cell. I got news for ya pal, gay people don't want to be in the same room with you either!

When I read stories like this I reverse the situation in my head. What if Richard Simmons went on record as saying that he didn't like black people, their lifestyle was wrong and he didn't want to associate with any of them? Would a lame ass apology make it all better? Hardly. I wish that GLAAD had balls like the NAACP does.

Someone who goes so far as to make a public statement that is this extreme - yeah. There's a problem there. A big problem.
This guy isn't just uncomfortable. He is so disgusted and freaked out and over the top, that he can't help but make a spectacle of himself. All kinds of sex acts are kind of gross to me, but the amount of time they are in my head or I talk about them? Seconds a year.

The idea of having sex with a woman is gross to me. But women hit on me lots, and I am flattered. I know they're not gonna rape me. I know I can say no. I'm not afraid to be in a room alone with one. This guy is all kinds of fukced up. What would people think of me if everytime someone mentioned het sex on the ledge I freaked and said how sick and disgusting it was? Or that I hated straight people?

No, this guy was over the top and way out of line, (although it said they asked him, right? He didn't just suddenly for no reason out of nowhere start talking) but I've heard milder forms of similar sentiments, and I don't think it was because the person is gay, that is what I was asking about.

And I think mikeshmike is right about GLAAD and NAACP comparison thingy.

Lindsey used to bang Stevie, same thing right??? (Since Stevie's vocals are considered 'goatish')

Seriously, Alot of people I am related to (ie-Aunts, Uncles, cousins, etc.) have the same opinion as Tim Fartaway, But I see someone's sexuality the same way my Mom taught me to see it "Unless someone's sharing your bed it's none of your business what a person does in their sexual life".

He's only sorry that he said it and was judged harshly- not because he feels that way. He's an a-hole.

Professional sports (in the U.S.) are notoriously homophobic.

Pretty simple equation with this one folks.

I completely agree with you. It's been my experience that people who are entirely comfortable in their heterosexuality either are indifferent to the sex lives of homosexuals or they campaign for equal rights because they see no problem with having a different bedroom preference than their own. My best friend is a perfect example, the only time she talks or thinks about homosexuality is when she's defending the right for marriage, other than that, it really doesn't cross her mind...and why should it? Now, my friend who threw the biggest fit when I came out to her, the one who stood on her soapbox and threw the bible down at me from it...she admitted to me months later that thoughts of being with a woman had often crossed her mind.

Slightly off topic, but hilarious...

Top 16 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong

16. Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.

15. There are plenty of straight families looking to adopt, and every unwanted child already has a loving family. This is why foster care does not exist.

14. Conservatives know best how to create strong families. That is why it is not true that Texas and Mississippi have the highest teen birthrates, and Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire have the lowest. This is a myth spread by the liberal media.

13. Marriage is a religious institution, defined by churches. This is why atheists do not marry.

12. Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why our society has no single parents.

11. Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

10. Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

9. Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

8. Gay marriage should be decided by the people and their elected representatives, not the courts. The framers checked the courts, which represent mainstream public opinion, with legislatures created to protect the rights of minorities from the tyranny of the majority. Interference by courts in this matter is inappropriate, just as it has been every time the courts have tried to hold back legislatures pushing for civil rights.

7. Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6. Civil unions, providing most of the same benefits as marriage with a different name are better, because "separate but equal" institutions are a good way to satisfy the demands of uppity minority groups.

5. Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

4. Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

3. Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

2. Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

1. METEORS and VOLCANOES.

Yeppers. It's been my experience that the most homophobic people are the ones who have questioned their own sexuality. People who are 100% secure in their sexuality generally don't react with such hatred...

A few years back when I was heavily involved with my church, me and my gay best friend were on the council, we had such a hard time - were constantly fighting homophobes....but stood our ground.

I'm not kidding when I say that the loudest most vocal group of anti-gay people are now ALL out and gay as picnic baskets. The lone one who hasn't come out is still an asshole, and I hope one day he can come to terms with his own sexuality.

Anyway - when someone is that homophobic it's clear to me there are issues with security in their own sexuality - I'm not saying they're all gay but they are definitely not secure within themselves.


Oh and I LOVE that gay marriage thing - it makes the MySpace rounds every so often and it always makes me chuckle.

I'm curious about this double standard where gay people can say that heterosexual sex is gross to them but a straight man will be hung from the highest tree if he said that the idea of two men having sex or the idea of having sex with a man is gross to them. This guy did much more by saying he hates them and doesn't want to be around them but even if he just said that gay sex is gross to him he'd still be in trouble.
