    Hi.
    I don't exactly know where to begin here...hmmm...
    Well, I have a lesbian sister. I totally respest that -- you know? Call it a persuasion or whatever. But the one thing that really gets on my nerves--urks me--is people playing the martyr, which is what her and her girlfriend do.
    She and her girlfriend will sit or stand in restuarants making out, feeling eachother up, and they have litterally cried about being called on it -- some one telling them that is not propriety. I mean, there's a place for what they are expressing and public arenas are not one of them.

    Another example, my sister WAS the manager of a good restuarant here in town but got demoted for clocking in late the same as above but the clocking in late part is because my sister and her girlfriend would always spend 5 to 10 minutes into the starting working hour making out in the lobby -- another propriety issue I think.

    The bottom line is there is a time and place for everything and propriety should always lead the way!

    I'm very, very happy for them that they can express themselves physically, but I do agree with you. It bugs me to see people just making out in public all the time. They do need to make sure they can express themselves OTHER ways, and to realize that everyone in society holds back a lot in order to make other people comfortable. It's just polite.

    Yeah... my ex-girlfriend and I were very anti-pda.

    I don't think it really matter what you orientation is on that one. It make some folks uncomfortable and.. I guess especially in front of families in restaurants and what have you.

    If you clock late, you'll have to face the consequences.

    If you challenge other people's concepts of propriety, you'll be probably called to defend your views.

    So, if the two of them love playing the martyrs, let them enjoy their ride.

    Thatis one thing but let's take a look at gay men. They're not as "we're gonna prove ourselves" as lesbians. They don't try and play the martyr in situations like I had mentioned. I respect gay men. It takes balls for a gay man to "come out of the closet", so to say, and say to the public yes...I'm gay. But for two girls it's nothing.
    For example, one would think nothing of it to see two girls holding hands walking in the mall...but to see two guys hoding hands walking in the mall one would think that's weird.
    Besides, one minute a gay girl is lesbian then she's bi, then strait...and the circle just keeps going -- indecisive.
    Now I'm not saying that about all lesbians, because that would be steretyping, but for the most part that's true from what I've seen. And men stick with it, men don't flounder, they might try to hide it for many years by having sex with girls, but eventually they do come out -- that takes balls...and that's why gay men get my respect.

    Brighton? Gay capital of Britain?:tongue:

    Anyway, your sister sounds like a bitch. I don't want to see two people embracing love whilst I have MY meal, regardless if they're straight or bent.

    I want to make it clear to everyone...I have absolutely nothing against gay people and I DO NOT stereoptype them! I've seen first hand a lot of things happen, and yes -- that is only to those few, but for thos few, or rather to those few I'm urked.

    I know that not all gay women are out there to push there right of affection on everyone -- the same with gay men. Wether gay or strait, we must all abide by propriety--summarized, that is there's a propper way to act in puplic places, infront of friends/family, and there is the behind closed-doors scene.
