Re: g_b Are you straight or gay?

[Tom Crewes]

I came out straight too, but on a previous test, I was rated  gay, based on 
several more questions, which also took into account, liking for music, colour, 
behaviour, mood, friends, fantasies. Dont ask me where it is right now. 

Cheers
Tom

Hi all,

No, the test is not, as some of us say, 'convert ppl'. I wrote the quiz to make 
sure I select the 'gay'est options - and I did get the verdict as 'You are gay!'

Actor Vinay Pathak's latest release, Straight, debuts on March 20, 2009 and if 
you haven't quite guessed after reading the title, it's about a guy who isn't 
too sure whether he's heterosexual or not. 
Are you sailing in the same boat? If so, you need to find out for yourself what 
your sexual preferences are. 
For this test to be at all accurate, the idea is to be open-minded when 
answering the questions. And keep in mind it's just for fun!

Why to think in this way...
May be they want to make ppl to feel that everyone is same, so do not feel
bad about what you are... and continue what you are...
Think Positive man...

RE: g_b Re: [lgbt-india] RUTH VANITA TRASHES SLUMDOG AND CALLS IT "An Updated Drain Inspector's Report"

[siddharth murthy]

like i mentioned before, the west only wants to know that the east and all the 
sundry countries that it presumably supports and dominates over, is wallowing 
in misery and hunger and despair, and this in a way is to reinstate the 
doctrine of western supremacy and make the 'civilised' and 'advanced' western 
world to 'ooh' and 'aah' and say to themselves how lucky that they live in the 
west.
Films like these, ad books like arivind adiga's, which won the booker prize, 
though completly fiction claim to show the real india, and unfortunatly for us 
indians, is fantastically awarded. Obviously this encourages others to explore 
this miserable india that marinates in dirt and filth and also encourages the 
people to feel proud of their 'indian life'.
I don't know when we will grow out of looking down on ourselves and still 
feeling proud of it.

1.
The Movie is quite a hit here and a lot of people including me have
seen the movie over and over again its done good enough for any English
Movie release. 
2.  Let me remind you it’s a Movie … If supposed to be a fantasy … If I 
want to see a Real Life story I would watch a Documentary
3.  We talk about unrealistic movies …. Lets see some of India’s Other 
Oscar worthy movies ….. 

a.  JEANS – just because Ashwarya Rai was shown with the seven wonders 
doesn’t make the movie a wonder. 
b.
LAGAAN – A bunch of Indians who fight and squabble are allowed to play
cricket with the elitist British in Colonial India, they beat them …
and the British Government allows their taxes to be removed. Not to
mention all of them in the Village have amazing singing and dancing
skills.
c.  MOTHER INDIA- The probabilities of poverty and misery are as outlandish

Begging Racket in Mumbai where infants are borrowed on hire … drugged
so that the don’t create nuisance and carried by 8 and 9 year old girls
with props like medical bills, milk bottles, etc to generate revenue.
The killing of People in Riots is very real … it was based in 1992 when
the riots were caused by Ram and it’s a reality just like Pinjar showed
the Riots and atrocities caused by Rahim.

Re: g_b Tell me which bisexual man doesnt lead a double life?

[Android Angel]

Aditya,

I do not agree with that. No humna is ideal personality.

It is nnot even required as long as you don't feel repented.

Now let me explain you this.

When you talk about sex, I am talking about all the other aspects of life and 
human being.

Does a married person (irrespective of gay  or heterosexual marriage) inform 
about all his likes and dislikes to partner? Now whether the person himself is 
aware about himself? I mean "Who is he".

Also sexual preferences (and not just one preference of guy or girl) is just 
another matter for one person and not for another person. Who are we to define 
ethics? Tell what is good and bad in this world? Who defined it?

So one live upto consequences of his or her act, is most honest person than one 
who trying to be "Raja Harishchandra".

Anyways, these are my views on this topic and not really me. So do not presume 
about me.

So it is very unfair to say Bisexuals (in this case) are cheaters.

Re: g_b Re: A Query

[Android Angel]

Hello,

What a decoration of innocence by some stupid thought process!!!

Fact remain same you are not suppose to use derogatory words against any 
profession. If one has his own way to correct it, others are also putting 
themselves in same shoes.

Everyone is unique individual and supposed to be humble if one lacks knowledge 
about anything in this world. 

But justifying the mistake by pulling shots at critiques makes no less than 
critique itself.

So please stop this kissing dirty lips.

Re: g_b Are you straight or gay?

[Amit 69]

I think thee is something wrong with the quiz, coz i tried 4 times with
various different answers and everytime the answer was straight. maybe this
test wasnt meant for gay people, instead it was made for straight people who
are confused about their sexual preference.

Quite a discussion going on everywhere on such a feeble subject of a movie
when there are far greater concerns across the planet which need attention.

so i believe it's the same for everybody.

Actor Vinay Pathak's latest release, Straight, debuts on March 20, 2009 and if 
you haven't quite guessed after reading the title, it's about a guy who isn't 
too sure whether he's heterosexual or not. 
Are you sailing in the same boat? If so, you need to find out for yourself what 
your sexual preferences are. 
For this test to be at all accurate, the idea is to be open-minded when

Do you think this is a safe and healthy practise? If you have multiple sex 
partners, most of them not even know to you from before then this is very 
harmfull. Are you not aware of AIDS or STDs? Kindly use a condom or refrain 
form such practises. I am copying other groups here so as to advise you on the 
harmfull effects of this.

g_b why men wear ear rings?

[sidu sla]

why men wear ear rings??




I have often wondered how this trend got started, I now have the answer.

A man is at work one day when he notices that his co-worker is wearing an
earring.

This man knows his co-worker to be a normally conservative fellow, and is
curious about his sudden change in "fashion sense."

The man walks up to him and says, "I didn't know you were into earrings."

"Don't make such a big deal, it's only an earring, "he replies sheepishly.

His friend falls silent for a few minutes, but then his curiosity prods him
to say, "So, how long have you been wearing one?"

"Ever since my wife found it in my car.

To all,
 
 In fact I was expecting Aditya to reply to the problem I posted.
Only a gay who never have harassed any young boy can support me and can give 
satisfactory reply to my query. 
 
As suggested by one my good and close friend I would like to take some break 
from this community discussion and would like to concentrate in my studies. 
 
At least for few days don’t expect any reply from me.

There is no need to be apologetic to a person who, in a stream of emotions for

that he makes."... Just look at what he preaches to u..Quote "if you have 
to make a point, please try and make it in a way that does not disrespect 
others." Unquote...U can't expect him to follow his own preachings.. .u have to 
tolerate such double standard fellows in this list because this is a so called 
"inclusive" list.
 
In the first place, you have never insulted the prostitute class in your 
opening post. Everyone knows that this is a class earning their livelihood by 
honest way. You have not shown your contempt for this class by saying  
Quote..." My experience is most of the gays expect only sex and not a 
friendship. They expect you to be a male-prostitute and expect only sex and 
nothing else." Unquote...Every customer expects from prostitutes "a sex without 
friendship/attachme nt". and you have just compared this feature with the 
attitude of many gays while dealing with fellow gays. So where is the question 
of contempt ???
 
But u can't expect him to be reasonable.. .History shows that he just needs 
some stick howsoever weak as in this case to beat the people on this list 
to behave like a moral police, or sometimes like a highhanded English 
teacher...and bring people to their knees...
 
U have to bear such people as this is an INCLUSIVE list.
