there was a goth vs punk thread that got stupid and insulting ..

looks like its been deleted.

Speaking of gay, I usually try and make it along to Sydneys gay mardi-gras...not for a great deal more'n to look at some nice costumes and makeup (they need a gay horror fans float.. ..) and free condoms getting chucked around..) that a lot of effort has gone into, good food, people having fun in a peaceful way, a lot of exposed titties (hey, I don't care if the titty-holders are gay).
It's like a massive party...and makes me feel good to see so many people are in support of people making choices.
"Gay pride parade" is what you folks might have, but yeah, the one here's HUGE.

:D

I was gonna stop by at some point and just say 'this thread is gay.' but you did it with much more style, kudos. :)

Why thank you sir. Thats how I roll. :)

it's been done at least twice already anyway

I feel the same way in terms of gay marriage.

In terms of homosexuality and the AIDS issue, I'm just constantly fascinated how numbers and statistics are quoted in the media (which is why I wanted your source). I completely understand why there is increase in AIDS in certain gay communities; the fact of the matter is that anal sex is more susceptible to AIDS than vaginal penetration. Couple that with unprotected anal sex and your AIDS rates skyrocket unfortunately.

It's really made up cause and effect that generally drives me crazy in the press. The rates of AIDS and HIV increasing in MA following the legalizing of gay marriage doesn't necessarily show cause and effect.

Could be that with the allowance of gay marriage, there is an increase in people getting tested for STD's (you know, to get that license!) ergo, people who always had the virus are now being documented because they are stepping forward to get tested.

Or

Since marriage was legalized, more gay and lesbian people have migrated to Mass. Since HIV is more prevalent in the gay communities, the cause and effect could be that more people who have HIV are moving in as opposed to the disease actually spreading.

Just another way to look at it.

I avoided posting a reply in here because it just hit me that somebody I know
just openly admitted he was gay.
I know em not homophobic and I know em not critical of anybody who have different tendencies regarding this..but ..I was stunned...and yet I dont know why.
I never expected this friend of mine to just come right out and confess to this.
he doesn't look gay..he doesn't act gay.
So how does a man know he is gay.? or a woman at that..how does she know
she is a lesbian?

In the tenth grade I just realized that I had a crush on my friend Erin. Ever since, I've always found women more attractive than men.

That being said, I am very much happy with my boyfriend right now.

It's all in what you find attractive, I guess. :D

I just watched Chasing Amy.


Thought I'd share.

Morrissey baby

Hiv rates just skyrocket because gay people don't know how to wrap it up.

Pfffft - she barely even counts.

Great movie though.

Don't get in trouble, wrap it up double.

Good call.


I'm bumping this thread (please, no lewd references) because I just realized that there are quite a few gay/bi folks at hdc. So i'm wondering... What is it with fans of horror/occult stuff/ obscure things and being gay/bi?

You're already weirdos and liking that stuff gives you stuff in common with other weirdos? ;)

Hope you enjoyed your ice cream...

Horror fans are generally an open minded bunch, much more accepting and appreciative of things deemed not mainstream.

Im prepared to be corrected but I dont think the number of people who are horror fans and gay/bi is any different than anywhere else, just that its easier to feel comfortable about being open about it.

Or maybe Im talking crap

I thought it was just you, Chrono (gee wiz that's hot), and one other that I can't remember.

No there are a good bit. Me and Chrono are open about it. That Marley's Ghost chick who isn't around much anymore, and then a bunch of other people who aren't open about it.

FIRST OF ALL
I'M NOT A CHICK
I'M A HETRO MALE
WHO DOES NOT SUCK DICK

IF BY GAY YOU MEAN HAPPY
I'M GUILTY AS SIN
BUT MY ANUS IS FOR EXITS
WHICH MEANS NOTHING GOES IN

Be nice, I know your true identity.

I've Said Nothing Bad
My Words Were The Truth
Sometimes My Way Of Speak
May Seem A Bit Uncouth

I Don't Mean To Offend
My Gay Sisters & Bro's
As Far As My Identity
I Think Everybody Knows

They Call Me A Ninja
The Mod Who Cuts Deep
Or Am I Canadian
Who Buys Dvds By The Heap

Maybe I Like Beer
Or I Come From Downunder
Where Woman Glow
And Men Plunder

My Favorite Word Is Poonuts
Now Who Could I Be
I Make Movies With Dario
Or Uncle Ozma Is Me

It doesn't change the fact that I know who you are.

I thought he was you?

Hah!

Ol' Posh isn't that witty...

Neither is Marley..

YOUR WORDS DO NOT BOTHER ME
I CARE NOT WHAT YOU SAY
JUST NAME ME ONE COMEDIAN
TO COME OUT OF NORWAY

Fleksnes...


I see your point.

Come now, Marley,
you seem rather stressed,
like a funny looking puppy,
in humourous dress.

But I do think it is time,
that we all knew your name,
reveal yourself now,
be open to fame!

My point exactly.

Let's not excite the pre-pubescent. I don't want to get arrested. ;)

Are we seriously the only open ones? Huh. The last forum I was on was INCREDIBLY queer (it was a Buffy forum; go figure). Guess I was used to that. I didn't realize how non-queer this site was.

Then again - Isn't the stereotypical horror demo the 16- to 25-year-old straight male? Posh and I shouldn't be so surprised at being the sweet cream filling of this sausage party.

The other guy who came out was that Skyblue guy I think.

but it's true. Most of our regular posters are in the demographic.
Ferret is too young.
There is Gore, Geddy, Massacreman, The Return, Fortunato, Dante.
I don't really know the ages of the other males on here just that they are older and that I respect them enough not to ask.

There are also a lot of girls though but we don't fit the mold so to speak.

I'm 86

...........

Really?

You sound older.

Doesnt Haunted come round here anymore?

Nope.............

So is where gay H.D.C hangs out?

Oh, hi Angra. :)

Angra's not gay... It's a chick, didn't you hear?

Baby, for you, I can be any age you want! ;):p
