Save the UK

As Romania is due to join the EU on Jan 1st 2007 we could even say...

Save the UK....Keep the Romanians out!


Has a better ring to it than Save Ibiza....Keep the Heterosexuals out
 
Thank you

Dear all,

Thank you very much for your comments on my post "saveibiza-keep-straight-people-out.com". I have to admit that you've raised some very good points and that I've learned a lot from this passionate debate.

However, I'd like to clear up some misunderstandings regarding my attitude towards SOME of the holiday-makers in Ibiza: (In)tolerance has nothing to do with one's sexual preferences. There are (in)tolerant people among gay and straight people alike.

However, gay people are much more often victims of intolerance. We have to deal constantly with prejudices and stereotypes, not only in newly democratized countries like Romania, but even in Western Europe or North America.

Apparently you felt offended by the stereotypical image I gave to straight people in my post. My intention was not to offend straight people in general or the inhabitants of Ibiza in particular, but to give to those judgemental people among us a taste of their own medicine.

It's very bitter - trust me, I know.
 
welcome musculin..................

you dont make any sense to me. you were trying to give back a bit of intolerance to those people among us who do not tolerate you by casting your net wide over everybody not like you who visits ibiza? i was actually thinking it was a joke for a minute. i hope if anything by signing up to this site it may show you how wide of the mark you are.
 
If you think all of us fall for your 'just wanted to let you know what it was like' stance...think again.

Your blog screamed pure elitism and if you were honest you would admit you feel superior to us mere straights.

The giveaway for me was your attempt to gain our pity at being a 'stereotyped' gay man.

You have helped to stereotype yourself further. If your blog was a joke and a way to make us see how we straights are prejudiced (?), why don't you write a new, more explanatory one to set the record straight?
