Minnesota is an hilarious state, watch the movie Drop Dead Gorgeous. Although over-the-top, some of it is freakishly realistic. Sorry to sway off the orig. topic, but I had to mention that film.

HA!! They may go 50 in a 65, but get them on a gravel road and they'll break 80 easily!

I think Americans' jokes about Canadians are more playful than offensive. Canadian and American culture are very similar and I think most everyone in America knows that (I'm from the north, so maybe...

Isn't that a case of the pot calling the kettle black!

The thread didn't wander, it was on topic. The question was about judgement of queer persons, I that is exactly what we were discussing.

Kepi: I think I misunderstood your post. Were you talking to me or Fr_Chuck?

Which "comment" are you talking about, kepi? I've made several.

Well, thanks again J_9!

Awesome... I'm pro marriage equality. Give me all you got!!

A guy asked a very vague question about the judgement of homosexuals by some straight people. I though the marriage equality debate illustrated the topic PERFECTLY and the thread was closed.

Really? I didn't even know they could move it. Thanks for the tip!

Apparently AMHD can't take criticism either, given the rapid removal of my previous post. Once again, I'd like to express sadness that topics pertinent to a question cannot be discussed if they are...

Why do the administrators of AskMeHelpDesk close threads when good conversation is taking place? Recently I was involved in a conversation that was closed because it was "off topic." The original...

I think it's a GREAT thing to reevalutate morality and tradition. Some "morals" are completely stupid, others not. Some things that are considered immoral are completely benign.

Once again you fail to answer my questions.

Sorry, I didn't read synnen's post before I posted. I would like to say that this is a logical progression of the conversation. The OP's question dealt with more than behavioral differences, and I...

I didn't realize that raping children or animals was the same as two adults of the same sex in a committed relationship wanting the legal rights of opposite sex couples. Also, I'm 100% certain that...

DC, I don't understand what you're getting at. Does something have to be truthful to be legal? Does it have to be truthful to be moral? Just throwing it out there.

I do agree with you that...

I just think it's necessary to explain yourself when you have an illogical, possibly hateful opinion. I don't care if I change your mind. I just want you to actually think about why you have this...

Sorry DC, I should've been more clear. I meant your taking the S&M out of the "bedroom" and putting it in the realm of society. I didn't mean that you single handedly made the country aware of S&M....

Smoothy, your dislike of gay marriage is irrational and uneducated. I don't want to argue with you again, but I think you need to reevaluate your views here. What is it that scares you about gay...

I think one thing that differentiates gay men and straight men is their views on sex. Gay men are far more casual about sex than straight men. Also, there is a level of mutual respect in the gay...

DC, now you're stepping out of the bedroom into bigger things, which isn't a bad thing. A state that supports sadistic behavior definitely is a bad thing, but S&M isn't national policy, it's a...

It's interesting that you bring this up, because there has been a sex-linked patern of sexual orientation observed in regards to male sexuality. Meaning that for this variable, only the mother would...

I don't know if the people of Iran are quite as nutso as their leader. I think the young people are far less anti-American than we want to believe. I recently read an article (source unknown... it...

Ahmadinejad is a douche bag. He's crazy and murderous. Not to mention fiercely anti-Western.

I'm not quite sure I understand this, but if you mean we're sick of being politicized, your damn right! I'm sick of being used as a political tool. We're not trying to hurt anyone's marriage,...

Well, it's pretty clear that there isn't a single cause... to anything. Yes, the study you cite is compelling, but what you're saying is inaccurate and somewhat offensive. Homosexuality is nothing...

It's funny that you mention that. When I was in high school, this group of Christian students came into my place of work (inappropriately I might add) and started asking us, and our customers, if...

I think it is ridiculous that Sad Soul is getting so bent out of shape about 1 disagree. Is it really me who is being irrational? Once again, I didn't say you were homophobic, I said that your...

Oh, I guess I misunderstood. That's something you'll just have to live with. There will always be people who derive pleasure from others' pain. Others just like the aesthetic aspects of S&M. It's...

Psychoanalytic theory is going the way of the dinosaurs, so save the analysis.

I didn't say you were uncomfortable with homosexuality, I said it could be interpreted as such. I don't care if...

Gallivant, I think you're confused. I'm not offended that you used mental retardation in your comparison, I'm offended that you're comparing a maladaptive gene to a benign (or possibly adaptive)...

Well, it's art, who cares. It offends you, so don't look at it. It's a bad idea to tell people they can't express themselves just because people are offended by it. How many devout Christians, the...

Well, airports are (often) private entities that can do whatever they like... if the market asks for foot baths and prayer rooms, there will be foot baths and prayer rooms. I don't see the utility...

Yes, I suppose the situation would be similar (not the same!) if the poster were a woman; however, this was not a woman asking a question, it was a gay/bisexual man. You can't answer a post from a...

I was raised Catholic, and believe it or not, had a great experience in the Church. I just don't believe in a higher power. What I like about the Catholic church is that instead of trying to...

Oh, by the way, I don't hate Christianity itself, or any other religion for that matter, I hate the hypocrisy of Christians, especially evangelical ones who claim they just want to save me. I don't...

Well, I will say that I don't think all Christians are homophobes, but I think it's disingenous to claim that our criticism of the religious is the same as their criticism of us. First of all, we...

I don't think anyone who has taken even one research oriented class thinks it comes down to the nature vs nuture debate, in fact, people in behavior genetics think it's funny when people even bring...

Try wearing a cock-ring, you'll last longer and stay harder.

Just so everyone knows, the OP is a man... "I' a man in love with a married guy" get it? The poster is a man, in love with a married man. Hence the going to Canada to get married.

Umm... that's not how gay works.

If you really want to have sex, and you're not looking for a relationship, who cares if you act like yourself? I know it's shameless, but go to any bar and you'll...

If you are unhappy in the situation, leave. Nothing is stopping you. You don't have kids or finances involved (as far as I can tell) so you need to think about it like this: are you better off...

Mac, based on personal experience, I'd say you have a fear of commitment. There are a lot of women out there who like less masculine men and a lot of men out there who are trustworthy. If you're...

I agree with synnen. Although it could be an STI, the fact that it doesn't happen all the time makes me think it's something else. If you did have the clap or clamydia it would hurt every time you...

You weren't wrong for lying to your daughter. Some things kids don't need to know. The truth probably would've scared her.

Rusty: I said not to run to the wife because telling her about the affair will do nothing but hurt her. Now it has become apparent that this guy could be dangerous, and I have NOTHING against going...

I don't think you should accept his gift of rent and a car payment. It's just one more excuse for you to go back to him! If need be, seek government assistance until you get back on your feet. You...

I know you didn't ask me, but can you text him telling him to stay away?
