Seriously, there are female readers of this list. Could we at least pretend
that the rest of you think we are human beings, not blow-up toys for men to
grope?
In other words, please can we lay this rather offensive thread to rest?
If a homosexual makes a pass at me or otherwise speaks in a sexual
manner, I'm not offended, I'm just not interested. I would have hoped that
that the level of bigotry that causes people to be offended by such things,
was removed from heterosexual relationships in 20th century as well.
I think the common misconception that results in this mistaken
offence, is that sexual attraction/desire is dehumanizing. If anything, it
promotes humanization. I mean, how would you feel if this thread was about
dogs?
The joke is flawed though;
$ clean
bash: clean: command not found
