Everyone’s raving about another defecting Republican, who got caught giving in to his homosexual tendencies… but really, who cares? I mean, this guy goes up in an airport restroom to score some cock, and everyone is all abuzz about it. Please. I am so sick of the “news” covering stories like this one, or this and that about Britney Spears’ night out on the town; what is really going on in the world? Tell us that stuff!
Seriously. I mean if you really want to look at it, he didn’t even do anything but proposition the guy! No gay sex was involved!! What a freak, and what a non-news situation. Seriously, find something important to talk about, for crying out loud.
I do, however, think it is funny that so many of these anti-gay jerks find themselves in a restroom somewhere begging for a bit of man on man action… which really makes it clear that the more homophobic you are, the more you are covering up your own homosexuality; and honestly, that’s just sad.
I just wish people could be happy with themselves, and the world wouldn’t judge you because of what you do between the sheets. Perhaps people like this would be able to express themselves in a healthy (and more legal?) manner, and instead of being so against our “agenda”, they could just join us in place where you can be happy for who you are, you can enjoy personal acceptance, and people will understand and accept you for you. Man, wouldn’t that be a wonderful thing; and potentially, something actually worth reporting (for a change)?
Who knows… Now back to your regularly scheduled Michael Vick update… wait… I don’t give a shit about that either! HA!
In duane-related news… I have been really working hard at Statistics, which, if you are not a math wiz, is seriously another language. I just hope that I can pull out some magic knowledge or memory, and somehow score an A in this class. It is, after all, the only math class I have to take. At least I am getting it out of the way first!!
Finally, I don’t now if anyone is actually taking my music suggestions seriously, but here is another fantastic one: Kate Nash, Made of Bricks. Wow. She is a little bit Lily Allen, and I love her! The whole CD is a great listen, and I love her writing style. The song “Foundations”, is seriously infectious, and so well written. I have been listening to it on repeat for days. Do yourself a favor, and check it out! This CD is definitely one of my favorites of the year!
I just have to ask… what is it with gay men and public bathrooms?
While that is a very good question, I have to say that I honestly have no idea. Perhaps it is just that you know that other men will be in there, and that it is “somewhat” private? I don’t know… anyone who has solicited gay sex in a mens room want to chime in???
Statistics makes me want to cry. I feel your pain!
I agree, I’m just kind of sick of these types making a bad name for us.
The title of this post is how I feel about 90% of the news nowadays.
dave, ME TOO.
As he said in his press conference yesterday, Senator Craig is not “gay.” He does not identify as a gay man. It seems the only people who try to have sex in public restrooms are closeted homosexuals. If he were openly gay, he wouldn’t have to resort to seeking sex in public restrooms. As Craig proves, you can be attracted to the same sex, but not be gay.
decaturguy, I think that is a whole other issue; whether he is gay or not is not determined by him having (or wanting to have) homosexual sex. If you identify yourself as a gay person, then you are gay, but you can have sex with men, and not see yourself as gay. Gay is more of a “political affiliation” of you will… it is a party that you have to chose to be a member of; which in all cases, is determined by who you have sex with. Does that mean having sex with a man means you are gay? Nope. It means you are a man that has sex with men, a man that participates in homosexual behavior, but not necessarily a gay man. That’s why we in public health refer to risk as MSM; men who have sex with men, rather than “gay or straight”… what’s important is the behavior, and in this case, it isn’t typical “gay” behavior anyway.
I agree with you Duane, which was why I take exception to statements like “what is it with gay men and public bathrooms?”
I have to say I agree with both you and Dave that I am so tired of hearing this kind of “news”. Our news reporters all seem to think they work for the “trash magazines” and what is really sad is that there must be a lot of people who live for this kind of news as it seems to get more and more prevalent.
ok Decaturguy, what is it with men having sex with men in public bathrooms? I didn’t mean to offend, it was just a question.
I kinda find this story fascinating because
a.) Craig is one of the most anti-gay legislators. For this to come out about him is pretty interesting.
b.) I knew his son in college and he was hot. I’ve been watching coverage to see if I catch a glimpse of him.
This story is nothing new. The blogger Michael Rogers revealed last October that Craig had sex with multiple men he met at public restrooms in DC. Craig denied it at the time, but I think this story was the straw that broke the camels back.
