I agree! Parents should feel comfortable, knowing that no topics contained herein will harm their children. It is a very serious shame that many parents are so confused aout right and wrong and health and harm that they might consider the exposure to homosexuals “inappropriate for their” children.

I think the point was that why should sexual orientation of any kind be a topic on a LEGO hobby site such as LUGNET. I believe it’s the love of LEGO that has brought us together on here, beyond that I don’t think we need to single out folks based on their other love interest outside of LEGO be it heterosexual, homosexual or other.

I agree James, Lugnet is about lego, it is not about race, creed, politics, or sexual orientation.

Like it or not, sexual orientation is a controversial subject. Some people on this group strongly disagree with the lifestyle, some strongly agree. Back in my college days I visited several newsgroups that had “controversial” topics. They tended to be big flame wars. I don’t want that on lugnet. The only thing it will accomplish is dividing the community.

Please let’s keep the main thing the main thing!
