    I always wonder why there is so much bashing on any forum.

    I mean why can't a forum about LGBT be nice and social and carefree and discuss clever topics, fashion, cute hair styles, etc ..

    Why must it attract LGBT haters or those Polyannas that need derail and stir up bigotry and other bloody rot ?

    It gets extremely tiresome, a bunch of Daleks constantly yelling Exterminate, against anyone they hate......

    You don't want to know. Most likely, you'd rather be dead.

    Why would you imagine that such themes (LG) would be magically free from criticism?

    You know there are boards specific to LGBT that talk about that sort of thing.

    I don't understand. You were asking why this forum isn't light-hearted.

    You and I may disagree about things but just because I disagree doesn't mean I'm disagreeable.

    Yes, you are.
    I tried to be your freind and gave up.

    Big chip on your shoulder.
    I remember how you treated me in p.m. and it was very unfreindly.

    I'll have to look back over that. See if I really was a jerk.

    No, not even close.
    The true question I have is thus;
    Perhaps I was not clear enough;
    Here goes;

    Forum for LGBT Rights or issues as I prefer.

    And this forum attracts more Gay haters than LGBT,
    Rather than keeping it fun and informative, you constantly hear comments of how Gay anything is revolting.

    Haters are revolting.

    I'm sorry I looked through all my p.m. history and the only pm I saw where we interacted was you were asking me about my Avatar Photo and I apologize for mixing you up with another poster.

    Yeah, such is your life.
    Sucks to be you then if my freindship was or is so meaningless to you.

    You were not a jerk, just sort of strange.

    No, I told you quite a bit about myself.
    You perhaps do not remember.

    Are you talking about Political Forum, or some others?

    If you're talking about forums solely for, by, and about LGBT, I'd say it's a shame things are as you say.

    If you're talking about here, it's probably because the subject of politics invites argument. At some point, it seems, argument often devolves into pissing contests.

    I don't know what would be a clever topic, but I'm sure they have a forum. I bet there are fashion and hairstyle groups, too.

    I'm here talking to you about it. I do find you to be a really nice guy.

    I will admit to being strange I'm a strange person.

    Yes I do remember that. For some reason I didn't think that happened in pm. But yes I remember.

    I don't understand did I insult you or something?

    A reflection of the actual world we live in, instead of that of a carefully shielded echo chamber.

    Do you not thing there's room for both?

    'hate' is the name we give things we don't like. it has no reality on its own. 'vitriole' is the name we give ideas (expressed as words) we don't agree with. expecting to not be 'bothered' by either, in an open public forum, is absurdly infantile.

    I post to open public forums, because I do not want to live in an airless echo chamber.

    It is like a dumb runty guy walking into a Lesbian bar and mouthing off and telling the women there how they are going to hell.
    Then he gets beaten and kicked to the curb.

    What is the point of going on an LGBT forum and telling folks how LGBT people make you revolted and sick to the stomach ????

    PS: 'revolted and sick to the stomach' :D
