Patti Stanger: The Millionaire Matchmaker

[East]

Then maybe just some of us should have equality under the law...eh? The acceptable ones? Maybe there should be a jury to figure out who is worthy of equality?

Let me see...what are some of the straight people's complaints that I hear...

Feminine men.....they make us ALL look bad...stop acting like women and maybe we will all have a much better chance at acceptance.

Drag Queens...they must go for sure because they annoy alot of people.

Gays that hold hands in public or show any affection MUST STOP IMMEDIATELY because they make some straight people uncomfortable.

Gay Republicans aren't gonna cut it...the #1 complaint I hear from straight people about gays in the Bay Area is HOW can a gay person BE a Republican? Seriously...I am not joking. People around here are pretty tolerant of gay people...not so tolerant about gay Republicans....we better make them happy too because those gays are making us all look bad in their eyes.

Are you decadent and bitchy and shallow? That is a really big complaint I hear about gay people from straight people .....what shall we do about THOSE people because they are making all of us look bad?

As I said...that is the thing with pointing fingers...sure enough the same hand has four more pointing back at you....so why do it?

Personally I prefer to demand equality under the law for everybody....period. If you want acceptance as an individual and are willing to sacrifice things about yourself in order to get it...go for it....but dont' expect other people to do it as well.

Or...maybe they should worry about gay people's acceptance...let's turn the page a bit..

You do understand plenty of straight people have sex in public as well? Gosh..they make ALL straight people look bad.

The thing is..they don't really NEED our acceptance..they have equality under the law so acceptance is not an issue....and what kind of idiot would think ALL straight people have sex in public because they have seen or heard of a few that do??? I rest my case.

When women were fighting hard for equality,....there were plenty of women who insisted that if other women "behaved like a lady" they would get farther. The statement made by the original poster reminds me of this kind of thinking. It is offensive to me.
