See or hear the boxers kicking off their match a little early?

Lennox Lewis and the other guy whose name I can't remember started throwing insults, with the other guy suggesting Lewis was gay, so he asked if the other guy had a sister, which started a 'don't talk about my family' 'don't talk about me' thing, which lead to fisticuffs.

It's funny that people get so fussed by being called gay - questioning thier sexuality seems to make them 'prove their masculinity' quicker than anything else are bring out the fists.

No doubt these same people try to be oh-so PC and say that 'some of thier best friends are gay.' How come everyone but me has best friends that are gay?

So what would I do if someone called be gay? It wouldn't bother me at all if that was the only insult they could throw at me. I'm comfortable with my sexuality - they clearly aren't.

"Bums against the walls lads", as all gay blokes will rape any man that doesn't have his bottom covered?

Seems like a funny way to try to insult someone - those that are don't seem to be fussed if you tell them they are.

People who are homersexual like to call themselves "gay". It is seen as un-cool to be "gay" to when you are straight and someone calls you gay you get annoyed because it is un-cool. Plus it's an excuse to beat the living daylights outta someone! ;-)

The funny thing is the way the word gay has changed in meaning. A while ago I was on the train back from collage with my mates and we starting talking to this old lady. When she got off she said she had bad a nice time tolking to us and that it was nice to see young people being gay. Now she ment it as being happy and joyful but it made us all think she had the wrong idea.

Nope, but she quickly realised and apologised.

I have a gay 2nd cousin, who had (died of AIDS I believe) an American boyfriend.

At a family party once they were talking to my parents (I was just a kid) and my mum turns to my dad and says, "Give us a fag."

Boy was that funny - the look on the guys face...

One thing I do find amusing about that whole thing, is the assumption of their horniness.

As a gay friend of a friend said to me, "Just because I'm gay, why does everyone assume I find all men attractive? I don't, I have certain types, just like you do"

I remember when I put the hypothetical question in the forum about whether you would rather snog Brad Pitt or an 80yr old granny with bad breath and whiskers.

There was some serious chest-thumping for about an hour before 2 or 3 of us said "Brad Pitt, no question".

Made me laugh all week.
