  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
Nope, what I was saying is that your own preconceived biases made you assume that someone asking for a hetero group at this present time was doing so 'to get even/keep up with the homosexual Joneses' rather than it being a legitimate request. You (...) (20 years ago, 19-Sep-04, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.fun.community, lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.people, lugnet.org)

Hello! (...) It still makes me feel good. It's not what I had expected when I sent the money but that doesn't mean I'm disappointed. I would not want to leave.

  Is LUGNET what you really want? (Was: Re: Lavender Brick Society)
 
(...) Wow, controversy on LUGNET. Will wonders never cease? ;] Damn I'm going to regret this. Oh well, as long as my post is more coherent than JAL's, I've done good. ;] I have formed a theory. Here's a pictorial representation of part of my theory: (...) (20 years ago, 18-Sep-04, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.fun.community, lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.people, lugnet.org)

(...) I get it. You clearly didn't read what I said. You _might_ be right. There _might_ be people interested in such a hetero discussion group. But why would you assume a group is needed just because a homosexual group is asked for? Neither of you (...)

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) Hi Anthony, actually yes, there is a clinical condition called heterophobia, that homosexuals can suffer from. It's easier to see this surfacing in lesbian circles, especially those that have obvious hate issues with men (male bashing, etc).
