"Queers and Niggers" and more than JUST funny! Accept us as full serious human beings or get punched!
I keep hearing terrorists are the new Jews as if Jews were no longer persecuted. I hear the same the same about Gays, as if everything is okay now that we have Wil & Grace, a show that is stolen from its namesakes by a stereotype gay man and his alcoholic female friend that acts like gay drag queen.
Gays are far from accepted. The thing that kills me is that now, we are not only NOT accepted, now we are openly laughed at for stereotypes. They've even legitimized the stereotypes by calling it "Queer Theory". Why don't they just cut off my balls? That would be like having a respected academic course in college called "Nigger Theory".
Then, they have the nerve to suggest civil unions could even come close to satisfying the call for parity with straights. When two gay people fall in love with people from another country, their relationships are not protected by green cards, yet straights think it would all be okay if each state just individually passed half measure civil union laws and corporations gave domestic partnership coverage, which is really intended to help all single people, a majority of which are straight.
I am so sick of people acting like we have arrived, when we haven't even been allowed on the same train. There is going to be a violent revolution before its over and many gays will die before there is any movement of moral justice, but the principles will finally be clear. Nothing half-ass is acceptable.
Can anyone imagine that black people would have accepted being able to vote for local and state officials but not the President? If black slaves had been granted the right to permanently rent land but never hold title?
The whole idea is insane and many gay people, God forgive them for their low self-esteem, are willing to take less than full recognition of one the most powerful statements of their humanity, the right to love and permanently pair. It's not about reproductive rights; that's just a red herring filter that straights are trying to create to make it impossible for gays to respond. If we just wanted to reproduce, what the hell? Who can't do that? It just takes an unplanned egg and sperm joining. Gays become parents quite easily and often.
Here's the deal. Gays are not ever going to get something as long as it is perceived that they must be "accepted" by straights. Hell, whites still don't understand or accept blacks, but at least they can fuck each other until there is only one color. That will solve their differences eventually. Gays and straight will never fully "understand each other". How can they?
But they better, by God, respect each other, or they will kill each other and it will make the US civil war look like a cake walk.
Imagine if even 10% of invisible gay people begin to truly act up. We don't want to go there, do we? Now, wasn’t that funny!

Re: "Queers and Niggers" and more than JUST funny! Accept us as full serious human beings or get punched!
Tue, June 20, 2006 - 9:23 AMGays have become so complacent. Somehow gays feel that mainstreaming means hiding.
I never see rainbow flags on cars any more. Occassionally, the closeted HRC equal sign. Once in a while the really closeted LCR sticker. Somehow saying "we're here" has become declasse, and look where we're going.
The government's Office of Special Counsel removed any mention of freedom from harassment for gays from its website, saying they don't have the authority to protect gays from employment disputes -- the government is the largest employer in the US. The largest agency of the government, DOD, still publishes documents calling homosexuality a disorder. We do nothing to help our brothers and sisters who are killed in other countries just because they are gay -- it'll happen here sooner than we think.
German gays in the 1910's had rights similar to the ones we have now, including a Domestic Partner Registry, etc., etc. 20 years later they're burned in ovens. People are fools to think we've gotten to where we need to be, or that we can stay there without continued effort. You think the right wing is through trying to eliminate us? -

Why won't ignorance die out?
Tue, June 20, 2006 - 9:30 AMLast weekend I was in a coffee shop in the gayest neighborhood in DC, one of the gayer cities in America. Also, note that DC is overwhelmingly Democratic (Dem:Rep = 9:1). I overheard some young straight people (early 20's by their looks, single-digits by their attitudes). The brightest one of the bunch was making his case for repealing women's suffrage, saying most of the post-1920 elections were inappropriately swayed by women who didn't understand the issues. The others just agreed. Note that this was two guys and two girls, apparently married couples. The girls just ate, drank, and nodded... oh, and paid.
Our job to educate people about who and what we and other minorities offer will never be finished.

Fri, July 7, 2006 - 10:04 AMif gays want to be respected and recognized by the heteros they need to get off their lazy asses, stop watching idiotic shows like queer as folk, queer eye and the E channel. They need to unite, and serioulsy tackle the issues that affect them. every time i go out and try to start a serious political conversation i get looks like i'm a crazy person for not talking about who Paris Hilton is dating, who's the hottest guy in the club, or where to find TINA. Most people, not all, but most dont give a rat's ass about politics. I know this attitude is going to have serious consequences in the near future for all of us. Who cares who Paris is dating, Really. -

Tue, July 25, 2006 - 12:32 PMIt is somewhat different here in DC, where national politics is local politics. But then, DC voted 90% for Kerry and 9% for Bush. Unfortunately, the Repugs took away the voting rights of our Senator when they took control of both houses in 1992. Not fair since we have more people than South Dakota!
We still have our 'bois' in the bars who disparage the gay rights struggle as a) boring, b) tacky, and c) irrelevant since they already have all the rights they need.
So how does one get through to these people? We have bills posted around the gayborhood showing the two gay teens being hanged in Iran this week, but people seem immune.

Sat, July 29, 2006 - 8:20 PMMaybe you haven't actually watched Queer as Folk, as it intelligently deals with every side of these very typesw of issues, ie-the desexualization of the "Queer Guy" and the ideas that we are no different than blacks in minstrel shows. Check it out if you haven't, very intelligent stuff.

Wed, November 1, 2006 - 2:15 PMUgh.. I hear ya, brother...
Last night, I was in the Castro, the one place on the planet where I should not have to worry about homophobia, right?
Well, at least 1 night a year, I do have to worry about it, which completely pisses me off.
On Halloween, bridge & tunnel str8 people from all over the bay area come to the Castro to party. Ugh... these people do not know how to party. They are not fun at all.
Anyways, 2 cute guys in gladiator uniforms were holding hands and these str8 guys (I assume they're str8. They dressed like they're str8) went up to them and called them cocksuckers. In the fucking Castro. Fuckheads. I wanted to totally kick the shit out of them. And, I kind of have the option. I've been doing martial arts for a while now. I get these fantasies in my head about kicking some serious homophobic ass.
Anyways, I've gotten into 2 fights over homophobic slurs (both in SF). And, I'm already tired of it. It wears me out. I don't want to fight the whole fucking world, but at the same time, I get so pissed off at homophobia, especially in San Francisco.
The primary problem is str8 guys. Of the 4 quarters (gay guys, str8 guys, gay girls, str8 girls), str8 guys are easily the most violent. The most effective overall method for me is to make friends with str8 guys, then some of them start to defend gay people. It's worked for years with my martial arts friends. Now my karate & jiu-jitsu colleagues don't tolerate homophobic remarks in any martial classes. My new frontier is sk8 rats. Jesus, sk8er language is fucking rife with homophobic slurs...
Fucking breeders... They need to just make cute boys, then go away...
Anyways, there's been a spate of homophobic violence in the Castro. Neighborhood patrols are starting up. We're working with the police and my martial arts group. Patrols will start on Friday and Saturday nights with 2 hours shifts. Patrols are divided up into coupled and single guys... *grin*... At least something good (hopefully) is coming out of all this...
