Then why did he post (GUYS) when asking about women, and (LADYS) when asking about men?awallaceunc wrote:Again, I don't see any indication that Lion King believes everyone is heterosexual.
That's why I brought it to his attention.I doubt he/she was thinking about it at the time.
I didn't. I said the assumption that everyone is heterosexual, is homophobic and ignorant. Those aren't unkind words, they are what they are. We are all ignorant about some things. Trying to force everyone into categories is not very kind.To call Lion King ignorant and homophobic, though, does itself imply a bit of ignorance on your part, not to mention a lack of discretion and kindness.
Good, then let's leave out (GUYS) and (LADYS) in the subject heading.Not everyone has an agenda in mind when posting.
You really think that indicates that he doesn't know there are any homosexuals? Come on... let's not be absurd. And to answer your question, well wait, I already did...Chicky Mouse wrote:Then why did he post (GUYS) when asking about women, and (LADYS) when asking about men?awallaceunc wrote:Again, I don't see any indication that Lion King believes everyone is heterosexual.
Not to mention that it does apply to the majority and is a commonly used phrasing of things. If you don't think it should be common, that's fine, but like I said, this isn't the place for agendas.I doubt he/she was thinking about it at the time.
Well you said it in response to me saying that I don't think Lion King is trying to propogate homophobia, as if making the point that he/she is. But you meant what you meant and I won't try to tell you that you meant something else if you're sincere. So we're agreed- Lion King isn't necessarily homophobic or ignorant based on what he/she has posted, right?Chicky Mouse wrote:I didn't.

Oooh, she's smokin'! I even thought she was very hot in Star Wars.KinOO wrote:Since CLOSER, i can't take my eyes of Natalie Portman! (please forget your ridiculous make-up from Star Wars though)
Yes, I think that would be best. I just don't want Lion King to feel a lot of heat when I know she probably didn't have any bad intentions. But yeah, let's move on if that's ok, Chicky Mouse?RJKD23 wrote: I'm sure we can all move away from the "off topic-ness" and just answer the question of prettiest actress!]
It indicates that he doesn't acknowledge their existance, whether intentional or not. Is there any reason why youawallaceunc wrote:You really think that indicates that he doesn't know there are any homosexuals?Chicky Mouse wrote: Then why did he post (GUYS) when asking about women, and (LADYS) when asking about men?
That's how the majority suppress minorities. What's wrong with pointing out that not everyone is in the majority?Not to mention that it does apply to the majority and is a commonly used phrasing of things.
Maybe he didn't mean to, but the language he used in the subject, implied it by exclusion.Well you said it in response to me saying that I don't think Lion King is trying to propogate homophobia,
That's exactly when people need to be educated, when they do it without "trying". A little sinsitivity training shouldn't be opposed.And again, I take issue with "trying." I don't think any conscious effort was being made to force anyone into a category.

All females are welcome to post in this thread, and guys in the other, regardless of sexual orientation, and I think everyone (including you) knows that.Chicky Mouse wrote: Assuming that everyone is heterosexual, is homophobic.
