  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) Really, give me a break. People in favor of this idea have tossed around the term "homophobic" not in the clinical sense, but at anyone who hasn't embraced this idea as being wonderful, and you know it. I was pointing out the fact that those (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.fun.community, lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.people, lugnet.org)
 
  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).

  Re: Geobra Society
 
(...) Are gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgendered people? If so, such discussions would be entirely appropriate in Lugnet.people, and if there is enough interest and traffic in that group, perhaps creating a more specific subgroup would be (...)

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) Who's not being genuine? I've been begging for a .fantasy for YEARS. My dragons would fit better there than in .castle or .mecha. And I'd love to see a place where my catholic and conservative breathern could come together and discuss LEGO. (...)

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) I'm disappointed by the amount of negative and sarcastic posts generated by this one simple request - a request to have a place to interact with others who have similar aptitudes and experiences. Obviously, as referenced in the initial post, (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.fun.community, lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.people, lugnet.org)  
 
  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) Yes but didn't Jesus also say: "Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgement you judge, you will be judged; and with what measure you use, it will be measured back to you" (Matt 7:1-2) "He who is without sin among you, let him (...)

(...) Wrong, Diet Coke simply consigns you to Purgatory for a while until you are thin and can go back to The Real Thing. Drinking New Coke (or Pepsi in any guise) is what condemns you to Hell (though The Lowest Pit of Hell is reserved for the (...)

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) First of all, if you plan on having such a group, do you not know that LEGO HAS made pink as a color in the past? I would think that a homosexual group would at least match the typical homosexual agenda on such a small issue like that on here. (...)

  Re: Geobra Society

I enjoy browsing the Playmobil section in our local Playvalue store, thinking if only LEGO make good looking sets like them, and OTOH how much they are becoming Playmobil like with giant special pieces...

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) Of course not. If you disagree with women, you get labelled mysoginistic or male-chauvanistic, not homophobic. That wouldn't make any sense at all. Anyways, there is evidence that suggests that those who are rabidly homophobic are actually (...)

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) I didn't understand why it should exist either, but maybe that's exactly why it should. It's one thing to say that LGBT people want to be treated as equals with heteros, but it's a totally different thing to say that they want to be treated as (...)

(...) Who are you to judge whether or not Anthony's requests were genuine or not? The only person who is qualified to be the judge of that is Antony himself, right?

  Re: Geobra Society
