g_b Monday Musing
A very shy guy goes into a bar and sees a beautiful woman sitting at the bar. After an hour of gathering up his courage he finally goes over to her and asks, tentatively, 'Um, would you mind if I chatted with you for a while?' She responds by yelling, at the top of her lungs, 'NO, I WON'T SLEEP WITH YOU TONIGHT!' Everyone in the bar is now staring at them. Naturally, the guy is hopelessly and completely embarrassed and he slinks back to his table. After a few minutes, the woman walks over to him and apologises. She smiles at him and says, 'I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. You see, I'm a graduate student in psychology and I'm studying how people respond to embarrassing situations.' To which he responds, at the top of his lungs, 'WHAT DO YOU MEAN 200 DOLLARS?' Group Site: http://www.gaybombay.info == NEW CLASSIFIEDS SECTION SEEKING FRIENDS?

g_b Haven
Haven He is so passionate at what he does. He is so grateful for what he has. He has a talent that none can compare. He is lost, like a little bear. He brings a smile to a saddened face. He can bring laughter to a silent voice. Yet, he is not happy for he only knows and his secret little place, that nobody goes. Its past the sunlight and beyond the stars. He runs to it, its not very far. He wraps himself so nobody sees, what he hides under these two trees. They gape over, shaggy and old. His prize possession, not even gold. Its a key to a box that opens a door. It closes behind him so that he can soar. He dances around his little place. You stare into his eyes, you see a young kids face. He lets the real child within come true. To you its something totally new. You smile, you laugh and proud of his beauty. But why, but why, how could this be? You thought you had reached him, you knew him well. Now you realize hes the one to tell. Its not his personality or even his mind. He is gentle and very kind. It is his heart that you never tried. Nothing else-everything died. This is his place, his place to play in. It is my, my haven. Auhtor Unknown. Fwdd By Rajeev.

Re: g_b how many people at least have some plans to live with a gay partner all his life???
Nice -- I have actually forgotton how it feels to be a virgin (so long guess i my doc was a paedophile !) :P E chat and email may get u that some1 -- but that depends where and what u chat with and on. a chat that starts with ""stats" or "what r u wearing now" or "can u meet me now" means only one and the same thing dear - lets call that "fun" euphemistically. Friends got over the net who do chat , do know each other ,do like each other for what they r and not how long their tool is may actually end up with a longer relation as far as their physicals are ok with each other cozt the very reasn they chat is they like each otherwithout even the physical angle ! But ppl staying where gay friendly grps have events, and coming and meeting at them surely increases ur probability a lot (again if u r dont start ur conversations with "what r u doing tonite" kinda things ofcourse! ) Lastly -- May god bless all with his dream man ,but start his job with me !

g_b Fwd: Re: gb "Safer" Unsafe Sex Tips: For the HIV-Negative Male
Dear Nitin, You are definately right I should apologise for posting such a mail without actually verifying the details. It was a cut and paste job from one of the other groups that I am a Member of. Even long term partners should be careful and use condoms for anal sex. There's an unsettling number of cases of guys in long term relationships where one is positive, without them realising it (after all, even if he has a HIV test, he could have got infected in the window period), and then being a potential HIV risk for his partner if they bareback. regards DEE http://www.barebackhealth.net/health/sero-sorting.html --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], Nitin Karani wrote: > To people who have questions about safer sex including oral sex, > please read Gay.com's health section.

g_b For Mother's day
Mothers TO ALL THOSE WHO MISS THEIR MOTHERS SO DEARLY The young mother set her foot on the path of life. "Is this the long way?" she asked. And the guide said: "Yes, and the way is hard. And you will be old before you reach the end of it. But the end will be better than the beginning."But the young mother was happy, and she would not believe that anything could be better than these years. So she played with her children, and gathered flowers for them along the way, and bathed them in the clear streams; and the sun shone on them, and the young Mother cried, "Nothing will ever be lovelier than this." Then the night came, and the storm, and the path was dark, and the children shook with fear and cold, and the mother drew them close and covered them with her mantle, and the children said, "Mother, we are not afraid, for you are near, and no harm can come to us." And the morning came, and there was a hill ahead, and the children climbed and grew weary, and the mother was weary. But at all times she said to the children, "A little patience and we are there." So the children climbed, and when they reached the top they said, "Mother, we would not have done it without you." And the mother, when she lay down at night looked up at the stars and said, "This is a better day than the last, for my children have learned fortitude in the face of hardness. Yesterday I gave them courage. Today, I have given them strength." And the next day came strange clouds which, darkened the earth, clouds of war and hate and evil, and the children groped and stumbled, and the mother said:"Look up. Lift your eyes to the light." And the children looked and saw above the clouds an everlasting glory! , and it guided them beyond the darkness. And that night the Mother said, "This is the best day of all, for I have shown my children God." And the days went on, and the weeks and the months and the years, and the mother grew old and she was little and bent. But her children were tall and strong, and walked with courage. And when the way was rough, they lifted her, for she was as light as a feather; and at last they came to a hill, and beyond they could see a shining road and golden gates flung wide. And mother said: "I have reached the end of my journey. And now I know the end is better than the beginning, for my children can walk alone, and their children after them." And the children said, " You will always walk with us, Mother, even when you have gone through the gates." And they stood and watched her as she went on alone, and the gates closed after her. And they said: "We cannot see her, but she is with us still. A Mother like ours is more than a memory. She is a living presence." Your Mother is always with you. She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street, she's the smell of bleach in your freshly laundered socks she's the cool hand on your brow when you're not well. Your Mother lives inside your laughter. And she's crystallized in every teardrop. She's the place you came from, your first home; and she's the map you follow with every step you take. She's your first love and your first heartbreak, and nothing on earth can separate you.. Not time, not space...not even death! PASS THIS ON TO ALL THE MOTHERS & CHILDREN YOU KNOW. MAY WE NEVER TAKE OUR MOTHERS FOR GRANTED.
g_b To Hear I Love You (I wanna hear them, but when they are meant for true!)
To Hear I Love You As he lay beside me at night It makes me think the worlds alright I think of pleasure and times of joy Hes got my heart this beautiful boy This angel has come into my life My heart lies on the edge of a knife I let him in and gave him myself Try to put my fears on a shelf I wish to give him my trust And leave my past in the dust I miss him so bad when hes gone But when hes around the heavens are upon Sweeter than chocolate and hotter than spice Needless to say the sex is nice I want him by my side forever and a day I would do anything to keep it that way I think about him from sun rise to sundown When I miss him I wear a frown I could swear hell make me insane He shakes me up and rocks my brains I just hope he wants the same things I do To hear the words I LOVE YOU!

g_b Indian Ignites left-right row in Texas
Indian ignites left-right row in Texas http://epaperdaily.timesofindia.com/Repository/ml.asp?Ref==VE9JTS8yMDA1LzA1LzA2I0FyMDE1MDE==&Mode==HTML&Locale==english-skin-custom 19-Year-Old Student Held For Heckling Anti-Gay Columnist By Chidanand Rajghatta/TNN Washington: Dont mess with Texas, goes the Lonestar states famous motto. If Ajai Raj had heard of it, hedidnt care. The 19-year old college sophomore of Indian origin chose George Bushs home state to inflame the debate between the American left and right when he heckled a well-known conservative commentator and got arrested for his effort. Columnist and TV talking head Ann Coulter was addressing a turbulent meeting at the University of Texas in Austin on Tuesday and had just spoken out against gay marriage, when Ajai Raj ambushed her with colourfullyworded question. You say that you believe in the sanctity of marriage. How do you feel about marriages where the man does nothing but f**k his wife up the a**? Raj, an English sophomore and a liberal activist, asked her. The question stunned Coulterwho has been heckled before on campuses by left-leaning students and was once hit with a pieand sent the mostly student audience into a tizzy. Even before the incident, the left-leaning crowd had heckled Coulter and she had warned the organisers that she would not take any more questions if they were not silenced. According to accounts in local media, the police moved in at this point to apprehend Raj, resulting in what one paper said was a mass exodus of protesters chanting, Let him go. Raj was charged with disorderly conduct, a minor misdemeanor, although statements were taken in case the issue went to court. The matter did not end there on the political side. The incident made its way to conservative TV and radio talk shows on Wednesday with right-wing pundits, including the redoubtable Rush Limbaugh, using it to berate liberals. Bloggers of both political persuasions too had their say. Ajai, youre a hero! Coulter is an obnoxious pig who spreads hatred and stupidity wherever she goes. Its good to know that there are some smart people around who dont fall for her B.S., wrote someone who approved of his action. Twerps like this make my day! The more that Joe Average hears about this type of stupidity from liberal Democrats, the more they vote Republican. Keep up the good work, dorkbreath, wrote someone disapproved. Ajai Raj himself reportedly had no regrets. He had his say on one forum: Was I jackass? Yes. But heres thequestion people ought to ask themselves. Did I deserve to be arrested? Did the cops need to rough me up for saying bad words? Do the people of Texashell, of Americafeel that potty mouth belongs on the list of punishable crimes along with aggravated assault and armed robbery? However, one of the organisers of the event phoned into Rush Limbaugh to say the police arrested Ajai because he resisted them and not because he made a lewd comment. American campuses are typically left-leaning and there has been an undercurrent of opposition to the Bush administrations policies, especially the war on Iraq.

g_b A Thought for Sunday
There have been times when on a city street Where I had seen not any face I know, The eyes of some met mine as if to greet Me with a friendly word, a mute hello. But each is bound by laws of etiquette; We may not speak the words our lips would say; So we pass on with faces firmly set We fear to change the old established way. MARGARET E. BRUNER
g_b SUNDAE
Three women had a very late night drinking Guinness. They left in the early morning hours and went home separately. They met the next day for an early pint, and compared notes about who was drunker the night before. The first gal claims that she was the drunkest, saying, "I drove straight home, walked into the house, and as soon as I got through the door, I blew Chunks." To which the second gal replied, "You think that was drunk? I got in my car, drove out of the parking lot, and wrapped my car around the first tree I saw. I don't even have insurance!" And the third proclaimed, "I was by far the most drunk. I got home, I got in a big fight with my husband, knocked a candle over and burned the whole house down!" They all looked at each other for a moment. Then the first gal says, "Ladies, I don't think you understand. Chunks is my dog."
g_b 24 Hrs Mayonnaise Jar & a Cup of Coffee
When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee. A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes." The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed. Now," said the professor as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things--God, your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions--and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car. The sand is everything else--the small stuff." If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you. "Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first--the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand." One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend." Do you Yahoo!?

g_b Saturday Smilie
Wife comes home early from her high position office work one day, and finds her husband, in bed with a woman. The wife yells, "That's it, I'm leaving and never coming back again." Husband pleads, "Please, don't you at least want to hear my side of the story?" Wife shrugs and says, "Fine, let's hear what you have to say." Husband narrates the incident, "I am driving along the street when I see this young lady in torn clothes, no shoes, all muddy and crying. I took pity on her and asked if she would like to get cleaned up in my house. She climbed into our truck and I brought her our home. She took a shower, I gave her the underwear that doesn't fit you anymore, the sexy blouse I bought you two years ago that you never wore, the expensive running shoes you bought but never used -- I even gave her some of the roast beef you had in the fridge, but you didn't serve to me. I showed her to the door." Husband continued, "She kept thanking and thanking me. As she was about to leave she turned around and asked me, 'Sir is there anything else your wife doesn't use anymore?'

Re: g_b Absent husband returns home ... as a eunuch
There is always two sides to any story...though i feel terrible that her wife does not approve of her make-up style...i cannot think of anything in India that could be better than two wonderful loving moms.. Elizabeth In a message dated 5/5/2005 11:15:43 PM Mountain Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Absent husband returns home ... as a eunuchThu May 5, 2005 08:53 AM ET NEW DELHI (Reuters) - An Indian man who left his wife and two young children two years ago shocked his family when he returned home as an eunuch, wearing garish red lipstick, the Asian Age newspaper said Thursday. After a fight with his wife, the jobless Nabiullah left his family in Hathipur town in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh in the summer of 2003 to look for work, the paper reported. During his absence, he got himself castrated and became a eunuch, earning money by singing and dancing, a common form of employment among India's ostracized community of eunuchs. "I was always fond of singing and dancing, but felt suffocated in my body as a man," Nabiullah was quoted as saying. His wife, Shama Parveen, fainted when he returned home late last month and now wants a divorce. "I cannot live with this eunuch and subject myself and my children to social ridicule," she was quoted as saying Group Site: http://www.gaybombay.info == NEW CLASSIFIEDS SECTION SEEKING FRIENDS?

Terms of Service. --- Begin Message --- SB05-28 GOES TO GOVERNOR Yesterday, May 5, the Senate concurred with the House amendments to SB05-28, and the bill was passed on an 18-16 party line vote, with one Senate Republican excused. The next stop is the Governor's desk. SB05-28 would add sexual orientation and transgender status to the list of characteristics for which a person may not be discriminated against under state laws applying to employment. The Governor has three choices: 1. He can sign the bill and make it law; 2. He can choose not to sign the bill, which means that after 10 days while the legislature is in session, or after 30 days when the legislature is adjourned, the bill automatically becomes law. 3. He can veto the bill. If the Governor vetoes the bill, there will not be enough votes to override his veto, and the bill will die. ACTION â It is vital that you contact Governor Owens and urge him to sign SB05-28. (See below for relevant contact information.). â Urge friends and family members to do the same. TALKING POINTS â Status-based employment discrimination is inherently unfair, whether it is due to race, religion, age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, or transgender status. â SB05-28 would put the focus of employment policies where it should be â on job performance. â SB05-28 would provide the same legal protections that are now available to other classes of individuals that have historically been victims of employment discrimination. â The amendment includes groups who are NOT covered under federal law. Currently, it is perfectly legal to for any employer in Colorado to discriminate against these groups. â Polling shows that the vast majority (76%) of Coloradans and Americans support a ban on discrimination based on sexual orientation. (See POLL RESULTS AND DEMOGRAPHICS below.) â SB05-28 has been endorsed the stateâs leading conservative newspaper, the Rocky Mountain News.

g_b from the Washington Blade: Looking hate in the face
An article that resonated with me because Amsterdam was the first place abroad my boyfriend and I visited together and the first place where we could walk hand in hand as an acknowledged gay couple, rather than in the Indian way where we could just be seen as gay friends. It sounds silly perhaps, but it meant something to me and its truly disturbing to read something like this. Vikram Looking hate in the face If you would have told me when I first came out that at some point in my life I would be beaten up for being gay, I would never have imagined it like this. As a child of the South, where "fag" and "queer" were everyday insults, I would have expected a fist to the face somewhere back home for sure. Three days later, the wounds still feel fresh. For years now, in big city and small, I suppose I've tempted fate, living my life as I have always seen everyone else live theirs. If the mood strikes me to hold my boyfriend's hand, I do it. If a chill in the air makes me want to put my arm around his shoulders, I do that, too. If he says something romantic that deserves a peck on the lips, he can expect that's coming, too. As it happens, I tempted fate one too many times in arguably the "gay-friendliest" place on the planet. By almost any measure, the equality movement in the Netherlands was won years ago. There are laws protecting against discrimination based on sexual orientation, there are hate crime laws, and Holland is one of only a handful of countries where gay couples can legally marry. What's more, there are few times of the year more welcoming than Queen's Day, not so named for the gays who flock by the thousands to Amsterdam for the holiday, but for the Netherlands' Queen Beatrix, who last Saturday celebrated a quarter century on the throne. In her annual address to the nation, she said she was disturbed by a rising tide of intolerance in this most tolerant of countries. Early Saturday morning, I got a firsthand look at what she meant. I was walking through central Amsterdam with my boyfriend back to our hotel. People were still milling about on the sidewalks from Friday night's revelry. We were only blocks from the most popular gay areas; and we were holding hands. As we passed two men standing on the side of the street, one of them deliberately spat on us, mainly hitting me in the face. Without saying a word, we stood our ground. We stopped, turned around, and asked why. The man, who looked in his 20s, had Moroccan features and spoke with a heavy accent, murmured something about "fucking fags." Within seconds, the two somehow turned into seven — and five of them were ganging up on me, probably because at 6-foot-7 I'm a good bit bigger than my boyfriend. It seemed like every direction I turned, I got another punch to the face, and when they kicked me to the ground, time seemed to stop. My heart still races as I write about it now. It felt like the situation had spiraled completely out of my control. Then just as quickly as it began, it was over. I was standing up on my own, and our attackers were fleeing. There had been dozens of people on the streetcorner, but none of them had acted or even yelled anything. My boyfriend had escaped his attackers and had come to my aid, and that finally convinced the others to run. I was covered in blood, mostly from my nose, but I got lucky: no broken bones, no damage to my vision, just some very nasty bruises and a lot to think about. Should we have been walking hand-in-hand late at night, especially on a party weekend? Should we have shrugged and kept going after the inital spit? On the ambulance ride to the hospital, I beat myself up on both those points much worse than my attackers had. I could see in my boyfriend's face the fear that I might be seriously hurt. He had no visible injuries, but the whole nightmare for him had been worse. He saw me surrounded by five men, being beaten and kicked and covered in blood. I decided the next evening, as we walked together down that same street, that I was not going to second-guess our decisions anymore. Standing up for yourself can have consequences, but not standing up for yourself can, too. I filed formal charges with the police, who had come to the scene quickly, though I have little hope our attackers will ever be identified. At the station the next day, the police were very sympathetic, and readily agreed that we had been victims of a bias crime. Of course we all know that we cannot legislate away the hate some people feel about us for openly and honestly living our lives. For as long as I live, I will never forget the looks on the faces of our attackers. What I saw was more disgust than hate, but it was there, and it was chilling. I hope our gay friends in Holland realize that it's a bit too soon to declare victory and go home, now that they've won their legal battles. Winning the hearts and minds of the people will be a much more challenging task Chris Crain, [EMAIL PROTEC

g_b Friday's Funnie
John and Mary had been high school sweethearts, but they never had sex. "We'll have to wait until we are married," she told him. So he waits. They are engaged three years, and finally the big day rolls around. On their wedding night, Mary comes out of the bathroom, and says "I have some bad news. I have my period, and I don't want our first time to be all bloody!" John says, "You're kidding!" Mary says, "We'll just have to wait a bit longer." Mary goes to sleep, and wakes up at 3:00 am to get a drink. On her way back to bed, she notices Johnny wide awake staring at the ceiling. "There's no use John," she said "You might as well go to sleep." "I would, except my dick's so hard there's not enough skin left to close my eyes!"

g_b File - Tired of too many mails?
Tired of too many emails from this group? Hi All I know that this group has been generating too many emails. Many subscribers are flustered at the number of mails. Some of you might be thinking of leaving the group because you do not like your mail box to be clogged with mails. But just in case you do not know, you have the option of receiving all your emails in a digest mode or you can opt for no email mode. That way, you can see what's new on the website and still keep a clear mailbox. You will never receive mail from us if you do that. YOU choose when to visit us ... and you can check out what you like and can skip over what doesn't interest you. (Or choose "Daily digest" ... once or twice a day, you will receive an email -- text only -- listing all new postings ... just click on the "messages" link at the top of the digest to go to the web archive to see any attachments.) How ? Depending on what you opt for, you can send mail to: Digest Mode:- [EMAIL PROTECTED] No Mail Mode:- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Regards [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Dying to be thin?
