[PoloSec]

Think I’ll just stick with PERVERT!

[VerySadAmerican]

I had to check to see if this was satire. Sad what’s going on in this world.

[IronJack]

Absolutely not. Go corrupt somebody else’s language.

[Jim from C-Town]

I thought the same thing.

Besides isn't dummy or it good enough for these crazies?

These people are crazy. If they decided they where a plant would we be required to water and talk to them daily? Why on Earth are we required to accept and even celebrate what is a serious psychological illness. They need help not celebration and acceptance.

[Jim from C-Town]

There are no real girls or boys, just misinformed sexually unadventurous children. The real important people are those that feel different and need acceptance.

What are you Some sort of BIGOT!?

What they need is a rubber room and serious anti-psychotic medication.

[VeniVidiVici]

I guess calling a “transgendered” a faggot could no longer be considered a slur then.

[driftless2]

When liberals run things, everything inevitably leads to societal chaos and disaster.

[Mygirlsmom]

I'm part of an oppressed group too, ya know.

My financial expression is not aligned with my bank account. I wanna call myself a bazillionaire, and I demand that society stop oppressing me and allow me to take whatever I want from any store that I want.

[zeebee]

The purpose being to make gay... a mainstream part of the norm

and to make normal heterosexuals feel guilty.
