a petition to do what? filter out the word 'gay'?
I'd have thought that would be even more hurtful, singling it out as a dirty word that has to be censored just because of some ignorant, non-malicious usage.
ST you seem to hell bent on making the word be offensive. On the forum anyway...
It's only the internet, on a part of the forum that is only accessed by forum members, a group of people as far as can tell take everything with a pinch of salt.
You need to lighten a bit
This was a discussion about a movie where the main character is meant to be a gay man and the amount of screen penis used for comic effect.
You're no fun.

the ONLY thing i started this thread about was that in my opinion i wish the movie had less male nudity in it. I just felt it was too in your face and not enough comedy like borat, just more shock factor. still a funny movie...but yeah jesus h christ whats with all this gay shit?

There was an American talk show that thought it would be funny to ambush a straight guy with a "secret admirer" who happened to be gay. Well, he didn't HAPPEN to be gay, they did it on purpose because the squirming made for better TV ratings. Straight guy was so embarrassed and enraged he went home and killed the gay guy. That is not to justify the killing, which was a hate crime in and of itself, but to say that playing stereotypes for laughs can have dire consequences when it's as in your face as this shit is. And it's not that funny to begin with. What is funny about homophobes, racists etc? HAHA, Hitler hates Jews!!! HAHA, the KKK hates black people!!! Hilarious isn't it? No. It's disgusting.
If some guy started getting undressed and trying to rub his penis on me, I'd knock him the fuck out. And I'm about as far from homophobic as you can get. It's called personal space. Ambush someone and put a camera in their face to catch them off guard because that is "real"? No. That is really how they will react when some guy tries to rub his balls on them. Which happens exactly how many times on any given day? Probably never.
You get a black guy and a white guy and you put them into a situation where they are fighting each other on the street, racial slurs will fly from even the most tolerant of mouths. Putting anyone into an uncomfortable position and judging them based on shit they said in an emotion fight or flight state is absurd. It's also not funny.
And another thing... how would you like it if every time someone was describing something bad they said
"Man, that was FAUST.DTC"
"Man, that was Dubstep"
As if everything that is shit in the world is associated with YOU and your lifestyle?
Calling things GAY amounts to hate speech IMO and shouldn't be tolerated in any social setting by rational adult human beings. If someone came on here and began denigrating someone for their religion or their skin tone, you can bet your ass they would be banned within 10 seconds of clicking the submit button.
I don't want to hear any "I meant it as HAPPY" because you fucking know you didn't. Nobody uses the term GAY to mean happy. When used in the context of negative connotations it is equally as vile and disgusting as calling a black man a "n*****" or "BOY" or some shit. Fucking where is your head at? There are gay people who post on this forum.
have you ever got an opinion on something that can be condensed into one simple sentence? Even a paragrah? Having this many opinions on things cant be good for your day to day life...

Funny enough. I went in to watch another movie "The hangover" after I had seen Bruno...Two fat bald guys were sitting right behind me and as soon as the Burno previews came on I could clearly hear them scoffing at the preview and making loud comments like "you'll never pay me to see that movie.".
Yet the first scene of the hangover movie was a pantless man showing his harry ass and they were like LOLOLOLOLOZLZLZ. And they laughed it up at every man ass shot throughout the movie.

i saw it. it was really fucking funny, especially the dominatrix/sex party part
i have a feeling they lost a lot of segments they planned though... either through censorship or just it escalating to a point where it wasnt funny any more
