Marc B. Wrote:But does it swing both ways? Do you find woman on woman action repulsive or is that okay?
The physical act of lesbian sex isn't repulsive to me. The anatomy is different, and therefore the act is much different. I'm not really interested in a film about lesbian cowgirls either. I don't even watch the pornos.

Huh? Slow down, t4, you're putting words in my mouth. Read what I wrote and provide me the quote where I said "homosexuality as material that is not to be touched."
What I said is that all opinions are welcome on this board and all should be respected. Your opinion is no more valid than mine.
Quote: You can say anything you want about the film as long as you don't mention gay as a negative. B.S.! Double even.
To repeat, you can think what you like about anything, including homosexuality. Just as I can think what I like about anything, inlcuding homosexuality.
Nothing I've written about your being entitled to your opinions negates the concept that your "pudding" joke was crass, no matter what you believe or don't believe.

I can't take credit for that one. I was quoting another. When I saw the premise of this film, I couldn't believe it. Southpark's jokes, from years ago, were actually coming true.

Okay. You're right. I'm sorry.

You seem quite upset. I'm not judging you, just your comment, which I found to be off color. It sounds to my ear that you are the one who is making distinctions and castigating those who disagree with you.
As I've said many times on this board, we are all entitled to our beliefs. That means I'm as entitled to mine as you are to yours. That also means, to me at any rate, that I wouldn't mock, ridicule or otherwise make you wrong for thinking or feeling as you do.
Well said, Maggers.

Maggers Wrote:That's kind of crass.
Dang I was shooting for uncouth, I guess that's close enough.
Maggers Wrote:The film is about a whole lot more than just sex between men.
What do you do when you love someone and you know you will never have the life with that person that you so desire? Whether your a man or a woman, it's painful and the heartache may be something you never get over.
I have no problem with the plot, I was just pointing out the holes in it.

Besides, in reference to homosexuality, the Bible only forbids a man to lay with another man. Woman on woman action is acceptable, which only solidifies the idea that God is a man or that the Bible was written by men. (This is the only part of the Bible I like to quote, by the way, it's fun to watch reactions when you point this out.)
Regarding this movie, the subject matter may not be ideal for most, but it all boils down to a love story. So what if it's between two puddin' eatin' cowboys, two Bible-sanctioned women, a man and a woman, a woman and a man, a man and his car, a woman and an ape... it's just a love story. You don't like love stories? Don't go see it.

Shouldn't we warn them first to change their wicked ways by throwing throwing one through their window with a note tied to it? That'll shake em up! Let's start with Richard Simmons, he's just begging for reform!

If the note falls off they may deem it a sign of the apocolypse and all flee to fire island for a fabulous cookout. The world needs gays, who else will do all those makeover shows?
