Ohio breeder, its OK that xbar refers to people as rednecks and that they are beneath him? My whole point in ribbing him was to try to show him how he makes people feel on 80% of his posts. He is constantly demeaning people on this site and im glad I made a few people feel the way he makes me and several other users feel with his smart remarks. So, there u have it Mr almighty moderator.
Mr Almighty Moderator? How did I earn that title? I don't remember ever on this site and you can check me, placing myself above anyone. What I stated was my gut reaction to your post. I didn't "moderate" any of your comments or this string. Sometimes the package things come in isn't pretty. I follow south park and they pretty much make fun of EVERYONE. Redneck, Gay, Republican, Entertainer they don't discriminate they hit them all. WOuld it have been my instrument to deliver a message maybe not. The comparison to "Rednecks" and someone insinuating a sexual preference somehow makes them less is lame and weak. If you are offended by that then call Jeff Foxworthy and tell him to stop his "Redneck Comedy Tour" because its full of satire and demeaning comments towards "rednecks".

Behind closed doors? Not so much. If it was behind closed doors, I wouldn't know about "it". I do not see Brian Biotano, Billie Jean King, etc keeping it behind closed doors, because if they did, I wouldn't know one way or the other. Look at several other famous people who quietly go about their business and it isn't a big deal.
I am tired of pitty parties for people who sign up for reality TV shows and sign all these disclosures to make MONEY and then are unhappy when something like this comes up. Kate plus eight, etc etc. The dude can say what ever he wants, but he shouldn't have signed a media disclosure then and kept his mouth shut. Not a soul would care what he said if it wasn't for A&E's exposure. He would just be a old hippy that reformed that made remarks to some that are disparaging. You can't have it both ways. He is ABSOLUTELY right to his views opinions and beliefs. He just has to remember what HE signed up for.
WHY do we know all this about "these" people?
MEDIA, Same as we know Kim and Kayne had a baby, so and so got married pretty simple how kim got that way. Alot of public figures are chased and questioned constantly about there personal lives. That unfortunately is part of being in the public. They shouldn't have to share what their personal preference is but its not any different than some straight couple making a marriage announcement. I don't remember any sex tapes from Billy Jean or Brian? They aren't putting their bedroom antics on display like Paris, Kim etc etc. Why shouldn't they be able to say they are happy with x, y, z? Sexual preference doesn't equate to bedroom performances. WHat I am talking about is this constant prying by the media and the PUBLIC interest to even know what goes on. I don't follow TMZ or any other of those media outlets because I don't care. But I also don't care if they run that athlete joe blow said he was gay. SO WHAT? Some people feel they need to identify with a group.
I have always lived my life by the 10 basic Commandments. I was always taught sin is sin is sin. Those who are without sin cast the first stone. Not too many people are without sin unfortunately its in our nature and depends on who is interpreting it.
As far as this thread is concerned, I will exit. I have already crossed my personal threshold that was set by my parents- NEVER discuss sex, religion and politics with strangers. Its private matter and it just creates hard feelings.
