Originally posted by Ravens Nest The Evening Standard had a similar idea a few yeras ago. The gay Times had suggested that if you were gay shopping in certain shops was 'hetero-hell' & that these shops should be boycotted. The Standard pointed out that if you were straight walking down Old Compton St. in Soho was 'Homo-Hell' & that streaight people should take their business elsewhere.
It seems to me (as a white hetrosexual man in the UK) that that minority & alternative lifestyle groups think that we should accept them and what they have to say without question if we try to voice our opinions we are seen as rascist, homophobic or both.
Every time we try to be ourselves i.e. talk about how we'd like to get hold of a member of the opposite sex or say we have a blackboard at school and sing 'bah bah black sheep', it's frowned upon as sexist or rascist.
It's like you cannot be honest anymore, you have to be careful who you upset, it's like walking through a minefield..
cant have put it better myself
