Our own moonbird has finally launched Queermeta. Now I don't have to feel so guilty for queering up MoFi.
  • Why on Earth would you feel guilty?
  • 0 links and 0 comments? Sing, dammit, moonbird! I love y'all's kitten.
  • homunculus: that's the scariest thing I've seen all day.
  • I clicked on the link, and didn't even catch The Gay!
  • You must have had your shots.
  • Thank god all of the lavender pansies have their own place. Now the rest of us can get back to our regular straight folks' talk of child-rearing, PTA meetings, and whether Ace and Gary are really, you know, that way. /confident heterosexual
  • I lurve that cat! But um... the concrete-beigy-grey doesn't quite go. But I'm partially colorblind so don't take me too seriously. And yes, that link from homonuculus freaked the hell out of me also.
  • shhh, flashboy and Kimberly really like that song.... me, I liked the kitten.
  • I also love the moon. And queers. /registered immediately, should be by shortly to present token straight boy commentary.
  • methinks he doth protest too much.
  • Does that work both ways? Would rabid anti-anti-queer movement people be closet straights?
  • We like da queers! coz they is cloooose to us We like da QUEEEERRS!! but not as much as the beers coz that's more use for getting wasted and a queer isn't very useful for that unless she has got many liquor bottles and then you might be better off with some chap-stick
  • The Blue just tipped a bit more.
  • On tonight's episode of "Queer Eye for the Meta Guy"...
  • Oh, don't be such a bitch.
  • Alnedra: I occasionally wonder how man of the (vanishingly small number of) lesbian seperatists, like the gay-hating jock counterparts, are secretly not quite as certain of their own orientation as they would have the rest of us believe.
  • rodgard: It's a rather old argument, that's the problem. It's also suspiciously ad hominem. "You hate us? So you must be gay yourself!" While that might be so for some of them, I doubt it applies across the board, even for those who are extremists. My mom always insists that all gay guys are limp-wristed sissy types who wear mascara. I try to remind her about Rock Hudson. No offense to limp-wristed sissy types who wear mascara.
  • 0 links and 0 comments? Sing, dammit, moonbird! I'm dancing as fast as I can, boss!
  • You see, that's the mistake, right there. Less dancing, more singing? /lame joke
  • kudos, moonbird, it's FAAABulous!
  • Scientists prove that gay people have the Meta. Politicians make doom-laden speeches about the Meta gap. Funding poured into research to develop a bigger, better Meta. And a pony.
  • I know it's likely a minority, Alnedra, but still. People who spend their time obessessing about the object of their dislike seem a little more likely to fulfill that example of a stereotype. You could always introduce your mother to Ian Roberts
  • Moonbird, nice site. I hope this doesn't mean you'll forsake us completely -- although I know how time-consuming it is. :) I got a kick out of this photo on Queermeta, just because one of the signs calls queers "drunkards", "thieves" and "liars". Like, jeez, imaginary cause much?
  • I wish my acquaintance the ex-Seattle Seahawk (a linebacker during their brief glory years) would 1) come out publicly and 2) meet Alnedra's mom. He's pretty damned butch.
  • small derail: One thing I'm confused by - what kind of football does Roberts play? Is it soccer, or something else?
  • Rugby League, I think, jb.
  • Rugby League, I should have said.
  • My brother's like a big tennis-ball-bashing ultra-fit queer maths nazi. He's also a great guy.
  • I know quite a few limp-wristed mascara-wearing sissyboy types. To the best of my knowledge, they're all straight.
  • You're right there, Blaise. I know at least four, and as far as I can ascertain, they are all straight. And my mom has met at least two of my gay male friends. And short of catching two of them making out in my bedroom, she'll never believe that they're gay. All very very butch, and very big brotherly towards li'l ole me *smug grin*.
  • Blaise: Of the guys that regularly turn up to a weekly bunch the slender one with the fine arts degree who likes to wear embroidered shits, dye his hair, and wants to buy a house so he can decorate it is straight. The queer one is the one who turns up in jeans, t-shirt, steel capped boots, a leather jacket, and carrying a brain bucket.
  • Lord, when will I learn to use preview? Embroidered *shirts*. While he may embroider shits, he's never worn them in public.
  • I always heard that the campest designer on TLC's Trading Spaces was the only straight one.
  • the slender one with the fine arts degree who likes to wear embroidered shits who doesn't want to live the good life ;)
