osuche,

Yes’m, I’ll agree with you there. If, however, that is indeed their concern, then they should raise that issue, rather than fulminating about a cartoon character.

But...it's ok for the President to sit next to Sir Elton John at a gala?????? Even the word "gala" should be banned!

I don't get it! Even if...and I mean IF...Sponge Bob is gay...how would children know unless we ban him and make a spectacle of him and make him out as BAD, BAD, BAD? And...who the fuck are these homophobes who scrutinze these cartoons for us? What's that say about them?

It's the same thing as what they did to Pee Wee Herman (Paul Reubans (sp?). Kids wouldn't have known who Paul Reubans was in relation to Pee Wee...or what wanking was...or that some idiotic group considered it wrong to be in a XXX theatre, alone in the dark, and rubbing one out...unless it was splashed all over the media (and it was) and the children were made to realize the correlation.

Why don't we just plaster billboards all over the country (world), specifically showing what is considered wrong and dirty!

Example:

GOOD...unless it is a man and man or woman and woman...then that is BAD!

GOOD...unless it is an all male review and the men are dressed as women...then it is BAD!

Good...unless the man next to you in the theatre has his dick stuck through the bottom of the cup and you grab a handful and he cums on your corn...then it is BAD!

GOOD...if it is on the label of a popsicle...but if it's spoken aloud in the privacy of anyone's bedroom it is BAD! Especially if it's between two women!

Good...if used for clothing...but BAAAAAAD if used as a sex object!



OMG! How long are we gonna have to take this shit? I know...I know...4 more years, right? Arrggggggggggg! The worst part of that is...by then the seed will be sown and those who remain will "have the power"...and they'll have knocked the progression of the logic-minded people back a century or twelve! Oh.....next we'll have men batting us in the head with a club and dragging us to their caves!!!!!!!

Where's the end of the planet? I wanna get off!

LixyChick,

I know that I’m a bit of a pessimist on this issue, but I suspect that prejudice, intolerance, and discourtesy will be with us always. All people of good will can do is to work to minimize these incivilities whenever possible, and to marginalize those who assert their “right” to brutalize others.

Well Aqua, I don't know.

I think we should apply to the government for a grant to study this in more depth
and detail. Whatcha say we apply for $1,000,00.00 to start and go from there?

All I know is that I am a Sponge Bob Square Pants virgin!
AND I plan to keep it that way LOL.

Well that makes two virgins and one we have to do study on!

In a country where the [moral] majority rules and the (now) majority are of like mind and think the rest of us are deviant and should be "put in our place and shown the PROPER way to conduct our lives"...I am pessimistic as well! *sigh* The judgements and consequences set forth and handed down by these people scare the shit out of me!

I live in the gay capital of the MidWest (LOL -- I know -- that's still not much of a recommendation for Columbus). Growing up, many of my close male friends were gay -- likely because they honestly *listened* to me, and didn't expend all of their energy trying to get into my pants. There is nothing more painful than watching someone you love come to the realization that they are gay, and have to explain it to their friends and family....I had one friend commit suicide because of his family's response.

As you get older, people become less overt about their prejudice....we were taught we can't outright wear white robes with cowls. I managed a couple of gay employees at my last company....one of whom was desperately deserving of promotion...who didn't have a snowball's chance in hell because *someone* had learned he was gay. He was NOT overt about it. But after 2 years of beating my head against the wall trying to get him promoted, he finally told me to give up. <sigh> I wrote him a really good recommendation when he finally left the company.

If we can find a way to teach little kids to accept others, and how painful it can be to be "different" than others...we can nip this damned intolerance in the bud. Then all we have to do is wait 40 years until the properly educated children grow up and take over the world....LOL...assuming they won't be brainwashed in the meantime.

Unfortunately, that won’t keep them from trying to fuck with us.

In relating to jseal's response...I must say that "sheep are sheep...and they have little lambs". I cannot for the life of me figure a way to teach people tolerance and acceptance if it is ingrained in them from a wee age. It's nearly impossible to change one's thinking if it goes against what they were taught by those less progressive and open. I think fear is at the base of all of this ignorance...and how does one battle ingrained fear? I highly doubt that those affected even realize it is a fear instilled in them.

Oh...if only my mother could have shown the ignorant what she showed me! She opened my eyes to differance...and proved to me that we are what we are, and that being different isn't necessarily a bad thing...just different! In this method I learned not to fear other's, but to learn from them and to accept that I don't have to believe what they believe in order to fit in and go unnoticed. It is my difference that makes a mark on the time I spend in this world...and it is [their] difference that does the same and makes it all interesting and worth while.

Makes me wonder...if everyone was of the same mind, what would [they] have to judge, fear or complain about?
