Gay Badges:Yay or nay?

Postby Rereumrari » Fri Jan 04, 2013 12:34 pm

So lately, i've been getting increasingly frustrated in my dating life. More and more girls I hit on end up being lesbians, leading to some extreme awkwardness. I don't know if maybe i'm attracted to some sort of lesbo-pheromone or that i'm just unlucky, but if i'm having trouble telling straight women apart from gay women, then i'd imagine the problem must be 10 times worse for women looking for straight men since the fashion these days of spiked hair and tweezed eyebrows pretty much makes all men look a little fruity.

To allieviate this social crisis, I propose a simple clothing identification for gays. In the homosexual culture, gay men keep an exposed hankercheif in their shirt pocket as a sign that they are looking for casual sex, so lets take an idea like that and implement to every gay person as a trendy fashion statement. It could be a bracelet, a necklace, or even a face tatoo, but it has to be obvious enough to let everyone know "we're here and we're queer!" Then there will be no more confusion as to who is gay or not and everyone will have a much easier time finding thier preferred partner.

What do you say?

The political compass is a lie.

I say that I'd like to partake in whatever you are smoking. I've always wanted to know what it's like to think like a Nazi, or a Puritan.

Legislate that penis or vagina badges are to be sewn onto the sleeve of homosexuals?

This is EXACTLY what I expected when I read the subject line.

No, it's not a good idea. People on both sides of a pickup line can put up with the awkwardness of hitting on or being hit on by a homosexual without resorting to really creepy identification badges.

How about something pink. Say...a triangle? Pointed downwards.

That could work.

Build up your wealth and give it away, but don't let the state take it. Help those in need and love your neighbor as yourself.

More of a rehash of an old idea, really.

I'd say you hadn't learned not to troll even with the loss of previous nations. Now knock it off.
