Former Member Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 The kiss seen by millions on broadcast TV during the PyeongChang Olympics. Possibly most ‘remarkable for being unremarkable.’ NBC ‘treated it just as it would treat a kiss between a man and a woman.’ ;–)

Former Member Posted December 31, 2018 Author Posted December 31, 2018 One of the scenes I like best from the Tales of the City series (I think they included the scene in one of the mini-series too) takes place on a bus where two young thugs start verbally harassing another passenger by using anti-LGBTQ slurs. Because of the unhappy reactions of the other passengers, one of the thugs wonders if there are any other Gay passengers on the bus. Normal convention dictates that everyone remain silent lest they become the new target of abuse. But Mouse’s boyfriend, Thack, calmly raises his hand and announces that he is. Mouse is horrified and whispers to Thack that we don’t do that, we all stay quiet and they get bored and leave us alone. But Thack has started a trend and other people on the bus start raising their hands and agreeing that they also are Gay! Soon most of the passengers have their hands in the air and the thugs retreat in defeat. Peer pressure at its best! ;–)

Thorn Wilde Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 (edited) Not at all unusual here. Been a while since there's been a big homophobic attack in Norway. You hear of maybe one or two per year. Transphobic ones are sadly more common. I kissed my ex-girlfriend in public all the time (I look like a girl so it amounts to the same thing). One time we were out on a date and these two guys started chatting us up. We told them we were together and we ended up having a drink and a chat with them. Another time, at Pride, this guy started hitting on her (yeah, at Pride) and when she told him she was with me he was like, 'Really? No, but, really really? You're really a couple?' So, I don't know if it was because she was with someone of seemingly the same gender, or because she, a gorgeous goddess, was with me, the fat nerd. But hey.

Straight guys like to fantasize that Lesbian couples are always searching for a penis – even if it’s attached to a dick like said straight guy. I’m sure the fish/bicycle thing applies here. Usually the ones with those sorts of fantasies cannot find a straight woman who will put up with him! ;–) I used to have a coworker (in the late ‘90s) who went around claiming to be a Lesbian trapped in a man’s body (inspired by Madonna). That abruptly stopped after I offered to pay for the surgery. I was always aware that he was much too fond of his existing genitals to want to be castrated! ;–) Sometimes agreeing with insulting and offensive statements is the best way to get a usually fairly open-minded and intelligent coworker to think about what they’re saying. ;–)

But then he's also a crossdresser, so it's kind of different. 2 1
