There are a few things I have to post about this and I hope to get them out.

1.  I have to say this is the first time in my life I have heard anyone try and
tie sexual preference/orientation into Lego, and I am in my mid-thirites now.
Why on earth is it necessary to do so?  Lego is about Lego - building things
with Lego, comparing designs, discussing colors, finding the pieces you need.

2.  Why does everything now need to be sexualized?  Why must everything have to
have off-topic or nothing-to-do-with subtopic areas?  Why do we have to
balkanize ourselves into groups and cliques ("Didn't you know, Fred is that
"gay" space designer"../.."oh yes, NOW I see it in his designs, the purple, it's
gotta be the purple"...)

I snipped the rest of your stuff, but I just want to chime in with my agreement
to your point of view.
