Question about gay/lesbian ettiquette on the Peoria.com Forums - Page 3

@Chef Kevin:

So we are looking for a woman age 40 to 55? That is a member of the NRA. Does she have to have reloading equipment?

@meanjarhead:

This is irrelevant if she can't deal with all the weekends I have to work, which for some reason always becomes an issue. I guess if we all worked M-F 9-5 there wouldn't be anyone to entertain, feed, beverage and transport our drunk asses on the weekends

@JnJ:

sorry i just don't understand if being gay has nothing to do with it then why title the question "gay/lesbian ettiquette" ?? suppose it was a white friend with a black girlfriend, and you posed the question "mixed color couple ettiquette" ...who cares if they're gay / black, whatever? if you don't care then why phrase it like that?

obviously you don't care and it was just a misunderstanding, so consider that last question rhetorical. i don't think you hate gay people.

ok whatever.

@AV8R:

I think it is good manners not political correctness.

I really don't understand why this question is being asked. I would never invite a friend to a party/gathering/whatever and NOT invite their girlfriend, boyfriend or spouse.

Why should the rules be any different just because someone is gay?!?

Seriously Radar? So if you want to ask a buddy to the ball game or hang out for a beer you feel obligated to ask the wife too?

No.

But that isn't the question you originally asked. You made this a gay issue.

Why would you treat someone who is gay any differently than another person? Why even make it a gay issue?

JNJ,

On a serious note, certainly not. Especially if you don't support homosexual behavior. Of course, that is no reason not to be friends with someone, but just because they've made a "life" style choice, doesn't mean you've got to accept it or further "enable" it by looking the other way on the behavior. A wise man once said, "There is all the Difference in the world, between treating people equally and attempting to "Make" them equal".

I certainly don't support harassing or violent acts against anyone, we are all equal in that aspect; but that is where I draw the line.

One shouldn't feel "pressured" into accepting anything.

@Pock:

Here is some pressure pock Pizza and beer give up the diet, winter is coming big people are warmer.

@Pock:

GEEZUS PEOPLE - Are we EVEN Having the same conversation?? I should have known better than to ask a perfectly legitimate question here. Stupid, stupid me!!!

@JnJ:

lol. In Summary: Yes it is perfectly OK not to invite the partner. You can't be held responsible for other people's choices in life.

I apologize, I thought I was answering it within the context of the question.

"You can't be held responsible for other people's choices in life. "

OMG what does that have to do with anything?

Is this the twilight zone.

And Radar the question was "is it the same or is it different"? OK? THAT WAS THE QUESTION!! Spare me the judgement and just answer the f***** question.

I feel like I'm being punked.

@JnJ:

Different. I'm not trying to punk you.

i don't really understand the question either?

I wouldn't handle it any different than I do any other couple.

Perhaps we need more details, to know what the real question is?
