Okay then. I'm a champion for gay rights and also a champion for those who wish to air their protestations to current law in relation. I can live with that.
I think you misread my post then, as what I said was not a contradiction to the obvious.
The obvious was already there and you decided to make a big deal out of nothing.
If it were merely that you had no interest as one who is not homosexual then others committing such acts would not repulse you; you would simply be apathetic about it.
But the truth of the matter is that it grosses you out.
If the notion of homosexual sex with my own gender is repulsive to me then it stands to reason that I don't particularly wish to see other men involved in doing it either. That doesn't make me a homophobe by any definition.
I am not the only person on this site who thinks you're a moron. I am one of many. That is sufficient enough to show there is cause for calling you out on it.
So what? I'm one out of plenty who think you're a petulant immature little brat who has a lot of growing up to do, so I'm justified in calling you out when you act like one going by your yardstick for just cause, so suck it up.
I can admit I was wrong. Can you?
Well, you didn't really have any choice although kudos for that much at least, and yes I can.
And it all really comes down to how one defines the word "homophobic" doesn't it? Since it was a word made up by homosexuals and defenders of them and in no way actually refers to a phobia when being used by such as yourself. Jefferson can use it to mean "one who is grossed out by acts of homosexuality."
Well, not really. Essentially, with that argument Jefferson may as well have called heterosexuals homophobics for not being able to be attracted to their own gender for all the sense that would make. Instead he concocted some bizarre analogy whereby one who accepts that gay people should have rights should also watch some film about gays else they're a hypocrite. Completely inane...
Also, you never did answer as to whether or not you give a chance to all the highly acclaimed movies. Do you?
Well that wasn't even the question posed but as a film fan I do keep my finger on the button so to speak although there's plenty of acclaimed films I haven't seen yet. That being said I don't just watch a film because it gets raving reviews either. There's plenty of cinematic gems that don't get in the spotlight and plenty of over hyped ones that disappoint. FTR I will watch Brokeback Mountain when it airs on TV as I don't happen to throw up simply at seeing two blokes kissing or having a relationship on screen.
Forgetting what was written is not the same as not comprehending it. Buy a dictionary.
His whole
"point" was centered around being a homophobe if you didn't watch stuff that would or could gross you out, which was and is ridiculous.
Your argument here is based on your definition of a word, well you can read what I wrote above.
No, I'm going with Jefferson's bizarre notion as I have from his initial post on the matter.
I threw a toy out of my playpen once [is that what a pram is?]. Hit my uncle right in the head as he was napping.
Well, these things happen...:chuckle:
:allsmile:I'm not a hypocrite!:allsmile:
Nobody said you were so no need to cry about it. We're all hypocrites to a degree but Jefferson's accusations carry no merit as there's no logic to his 'argument'.
