Is There Still A Need For This Expensive And Disruptive Exercise, In This Country?

Perhaps in those countries that are not so acceptive to homosexuality, but surely there is now no longer need here?

//As long as people like I exist, LGBT pride events will be known to be unnecessary and illogical, and make one ponder about the thought processes some others seem to have. //

How odd, as everything OG has posted explains why they are necessary.

[Mamyalynne]

Exactly Garaman.

That is such a sad post, OG.....and equally sad that you are so willing to hurt people....

That's ill mannered and disrespectful.......x

Why are you treating not being English as an insult, surely you should be proud of your own nationality whatever that may be?

Also why do you find it necessary to assume that you may be more British than I?

Incidentally British is not a nationality, it is a circumferential term for natives of the British Isles.

gness - why tell him he's 'ill mannered and disrespectful' and then put a kiss on the end .. ?

OG....imagine a young teen being bullied, physically and mentally abused for being gay and looking on the internet for help.

If he found AB and wanted to ask others for help and advice and saw that he was being talked about as some on here are doing.....saying he is flawed....should stay off the streets.....

Would you not be ashamed of yourself that you had added to a young lad's distress instead of helping someone?

[Mamyalynne]

Now there's a word you'd struggle to act out in a game of Charades - 'circumferential'.

I suppose because there isn't a keyboard character for punching someone square in the face.

[gness]

Because I never get angry, HereIam......and a kiss is nice.....x

[Mamyalynne]

Jim , you owe me a new keyboard ♥

/// Good God Gness they are women!!!
Why are they not chained to the kitchen sink and oven? ///

Simply because they don't happen to be Muslim women.

Tea break from slowly painting, Mamya.....I am going to try to do that...... :-)

[hereIam]

^ lol.

[Mamyalynne]

You're painting me?

[jim360]

Who was it who spread-bet on 131-135 posts before we got the Muslim bit?

Disappointed, I had 136-140 :(

[hereIam]

Blimey you've got to be quick that 'lol was to aog.

[Islay]

OK AOG I am probably more English than you are!
Just because I was not born here!
You are a special kind of person to keep throwing 'flaws' in peoples faces - because I was not born here you view me as a second class citizen.
Which is quite sad really!

[gness]

Oi!....Don't you start! There is a comma!...... ;-)...x

[Mamyalynne]

AOG, well we didn't know you knew the Dancing ladies and all about them , kept that under your bushel eh?

[THECORBYLOON]

ANOTHEOLDGIT, what is your nationality?
