Are Lesbians More Acceptable Than Gay Men?

[anotheoldgit]

This person seems to think so, do you?

/// "Yes, I would condemn him, because I believe that a real man must be a real man," she said. "God created man for procreation, it is the nature. The man for me is the support, the strength of... I won't accept a gay son." ///

/// She was quick to add that her views aren’t at odds with her previous work; lesbians are a more acceptable form of sexuality than gay men, she claims, because women are "aesthetically nicer". ///

I know a couple of bi people OG and they haven't suppressed either side. They just go where their fancy takes them at any particular time:-)

[ummmm]

And who says they do that?

And is it as disgusting when a hetro couple do it?

[Old_Geezer]

It's not an obligatory choice, merely one that's available to some.

As long as we are using the correct naming conventions for gardening tools, it can also be argued that a man inserting his mouth into the organ which women use to expel urine could equally be described as 'disgusting and unnatural'.

However, as this gives pleasure to millions of men and women, I would suggest that the said sex act is neither of these things.

[ummmm]

What? What Ivory tower? Just because I don't think about what other people do in the bedroom doesn't mean I'm sitting in my ivory tower!!

I just think that anything goes sex wise as long as it's consented and legal.

I never think about what others do in their bedrooms.
Well why would I when I can watch it online?

lols.... this took a downturn.....

Yes. Whoever does it, it's disgusting.

And once more a thread about gays/lesbians devolves into a discussion about anal sex......

I do wish some of you could be a bit more grown up about matters! :o(

The problem is - some straight men cannot help but thinking about it.

Jordyboy9 entered into the conversation after a hundred posts and immediately starts talking about anal sex.

Curiously, you don't get the same references from straight women when they discuss gay topics.

Just straight men.

[naomi24]

That discussion is inevitable, Jack. I'd recommend people read the second of Stephen Fry's autobiographies, 'The Fry Chronicles' for a clearer understanding.

ummm - I you *do* live in an ivory tower, could I please rent a room? Sounds awesome.

Out of interest, would you say it's your disgust at anal sex that drives men and women of your generation to view gay men and lesbians with differing degrees of contempt (if that is indeed true, and it might not be).

[jackthehat]

I have read just about everything that Mr Fry has written, naomi..... :o)

It is just that, without fail, whenever there is a 'gay' thread posted on AB, someone who can't lift their mind above the belt-buckle will introduce the subject of what they believe that all gay men do......and is at pains to state just how much the thought disgusts them.

Personally, the thought of the over-70s 'bumping uglies' traumatises me, but I respect their right to do so and try not to dwell on it too much......:o)

Nice mental picture I have now Jack. Thanks. ;-)
