The sum of us: Rugby league hero Steve Mortimer proud of his son's gay union

It's so hypocritical that those who demand tolerance and acceptance of a particular viewpoint are so intolerant of those that aren't!!

Is that your attempt to demonstrate intolerance or hypocrisy in action? Or both?

 

[Rex]

This is becoming quite a productive exercise in outing the homophobes. Put a little bait out there - and they bite in droves.

Rex, seriously...stop being a knobhead champ. We know you are articulate, but you are everything that people hate, a ****ing smart arse! Take a month off posting here and go to a shrink

Fair enough. So is it ok if I say I tolerate coloured people but I want them to go about their business without getting in my way. So there should be no chinatown etc? Almost the same thing.

At last-there it is! Your sole agenda was to out homophobes. Because you are a nuisance and an agitator.

Wheres Back Door Benny when you need him? (Benny Elias)
Seriously who cares who you are gay or straight we all go for the eagles so chill the F***k out.
BUT If you're gay and a Parra supporter well then go crawl under a rock (or straight).

You have clear problems with your "inner feelings" Womby. It's like anyone talking here about - or even hinting they're going to talk about - emotions drives you into reactive postings about PC, cum bah ya, etc, etc. And then you lecture about tolerance and acceptance and shrinks.

You lecture that I should post about the footy instead - and yet here you are.

To be fair if people are in fact homophobes they need to be agitated, challenged and disturbed in my opinion. Thats how you get change.

You jump to conclusions about sole agendas. Why? because it suits your sole agenda?

Maybe people are more complex than your preferred singularities Wombat.

The "bait" is talking openly and honestly about touchy-feely topics like impacts of discrimination - something you apparently abhor doing - and not worrying about the inevitable extreme emotional reactions from you and your likes.

I welcome this all getting out in the open - and have no issue being the target if it achieves the end. Better out than in, simmering away.

WHAT a bunch of sexists you lot are. Not many out, very few top sportspeople proclaim themselves gay. Balderdash!

A large number of our top female athletes are openly gay.

In fact the recent womens soccer world cup had a whole, officially approved website listing and profiling the gay players.

That reminds me of the book Martina Navratilova wrote in the 80s " how I used to lick all those @&$&s at Wimbledon"

You should know, read back over some of your diatribes and you'll find your answer.

You appear to have clear prejudgements about homosexuals highlandeagle. This shouts loudly in your postings and in your ratings of other postings. Yours would be a traditional view. That is a view I am seeking to disrupt and challenge.

It is no surprise you will perceive I am being intolerant of your views when I disagree - very strongly - with them. And you apparently equate intolerance - or even strong challenge - of views with intolerance of the people holding those views.

Drawing a long bow there,typical of the intolerant that demand tolerance
