    Umm. Right.

    So let's ban most music written by males, as well as any male fashon designer, and letting people wear rainbow.
    Because it's "not appropriate, and probably gay", of course.

    This would include half of the most well-loved musical theater productions, and plenty of art, and quite a few other pieces of curriculum as well.

    Dumbasses.

    it is time to gay apple pie up (wait, they did that in 'not another gay movie), baseball (oh yah, rosie o'donnell was in a league of their own), and the forth of july, so the far right wing-nuts ban those things too!!!

    What is next. Are we going to ban Lord of the Rings cause people write frodo/samwise slash fanfics?

    maybe we should ban the odyessy from highschools because the greeks accepted gay people as natural. and in extension of that, ban democracy, because its strongest first apperence in the cultural history of humanity was ancient greece, who again loved da gays.

    lets ban football because the tight pants might create lust.

    oooooh, we should totally ban Sonics drive- thrus cause they sell footlongs, and it is vulger to stick a hotdog in your mouth cause it looks like a penis!!!

    Welcome to the slippery slope of right-wing idiocy.

    There is a lot of epic fails that I've seen in my lifetime. I think these two photos express the absolute utter epicness of this kind of fail.

    It was quiche lorraine, actually :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:.

    Alan Turing was gay and pretty much invented computers, so they better stop using them as well. Hopefully then they will regress back to cavemen and stop communicating with the rest of the world.

    quote of him: "Darling, I'm as gay as a daffodil".

    He was a gay man. He had a close romantic relationship with a woman, so he may have been biromantic, but certainly homosexual.

    To be fair to the OP, he defined himself as "gay as a daffodil", had dozens of homosexual lovers, but he also defined himself as bisexual, and when he died, left his estate to a woman that he said was closer to him than anyone. I suspect it's one of those situations where his actual sexual orientation probably defied simple categorization.

    However, for the purposes of the dimwits in Wasilla, I doubt they'd give a crap what label he used to define himself. Not like those asshats would let anything like a little logic and common sense interfere with their bigotry.

    I'm not sure whether I should be laughing or shaking my head. I think faculty could use a lesson on homosexuality along with the dumbasses who are our "future".

    Which ultimately means all of the boy roles in theater must be played be girls, but then that would be gay too because the love scenes would be played between two females, so they might as well ban theater all together. People must find a different form of entertainment.

    conservatives don't have as much of a problem as two women kissing as they do two men kissing.

    There are plenty of other reasons to ban it (good and bad) - it's played to death, it involves murder, it discussing demons, Freddie was a Zoroastrian - but doing it because he's gay is more than a little ludicrous.
