Gay kiss cam
« on: September 04, 2013, 02:20:06 PM »
Quote
The Washington Nationals have one of the biggest gay fan bases of any professional sports team. Nationals Park is located in Washington, D.C., arguably the gayest city in America. The park has not one but two “nights OUT,” designed specifically for gay attendees. At the last one, the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington sang the national anthem and openly lesbian Sen. Tammy Baldwin threw out the first pitch. There’s a falafel stand. It’s a pretty gay park.

In spite of the Nationals’ generally progressive vibe, however, one painfully heterosexist tradition continues: the kiss cam. Or more accurately, the straight kiss cam. Never in the entire history of the Nationals—and perhaps only once in the known history of professional sports in America—has a gay couple been intentionally featured on a kiss cam. At best, the kiss cam reinforces heterosexual norms and excludes gay people. At worst, it mocks same-sex affections and creates an atmosphere of homophobia. The time has come to include gay couples on the kiss cam—or to kill it altogether.

These people are like the atheists always seeking out the slightest "slight" and taking all the fun out of everything.


edit: Eating falafel is gay?

Never mind that 97% of the men the camera would aim at, are just drinking buddies attending a game.

Leftists are not a bright species of animal, are they?

You know why they don't do a homosexual kiss-cam? Because the collective groan of disgust that would fill the stadium doesn't fit the narrative.

If your gonna have a "gay" kiss cam, then the park needs to do something to identify the gays.

Just tell them top shove off...I mean can you imagine how over-the-top in-our-face repulsive acting-up they would be just to annoy the breeders?

Tell them to go to Disneyland, that's where faeries belong!

LOL. That invokes the thought of this - always worth watching again from time to time...

I'm not a fan of the song OR Kiss, but I think I figured out it was fake. At least I think it was.

I'll bet my bottom dollar it is fake, a damned good one though.  The irony of a bunch of macabre hard rockers singing that song and having it spliced together so well...genuis!

Every bit as real as the pic I posed of "Peter Criss" liking what "Ace Frehley" is doing to him, from behind.
