Perhaps not to you. But your opinion by itself does not mean the rest of the world must go along with it.

Well this as brought out a range of opinion. It proves one thing to me and that is that homosexuals are the ones with homophobia and that is not suprising as they do have a condition to be phobic about.
Reminds of that classic statement/joke by either Dave King or Mike Reid in the 1970's "There seem to be more "homosexuals every year! How do they breed?

Homophobia is defined along the lines of "unreasoning fear of or antipathy toward homosexuals and homosexuality. "

I am sceptical that the jokes above which allude to homosexuality are a display of either antipathy or fear. Furthermore it is my opinion that the jokes were equally if not entirely at the expense of Mr Whitehead and as such was a legitimate satirical response to his relative stupidity.

I therefore judge in favour of the defence. This judgement may be taken to appeal.

That's an interesting concept I must confess.

It's just your opinion though, which is fair enough. What really interests me though is that you claim to have come to this conclusion by reading this thread and, as having also read the thread, but not come to that conclusion, I wonder [iexactly[/i what it was that drew you to it?

I should add that I haven't made any conclusions about Blottos post because, to be frank, I haven't a clue what he was talking about. This thread hasn't long to live I reckon.

Whitehead called Reardon gay who clearly isn't gay. It wasn't intended as a malicious comment and was more a take out of his friend. Most people on here will have said the word gay in the context that Whitehead did.

Well, yes. Of course people can, and do, have many beliefs, some of them strange, or least difficult to understand. My own feeling that the Bulls are going to have a good 2012 is, perhaps, a good example, and certainly one I couldn't explain.

My confusion though is caused by the claim that he'd come to the conclusion "[ithat homosexuals are the ones with homophobia" [/ifrom reading a thread in which [ino-one[/i had actually said they were homosexual, and even at the level of my "good year for the Bulls" belief it's one which anyone will struggle to explain.

The the mistake Whitehead made is posting his comment on social media where it could potentially read by anyone. I expect the club will have made him aware of his responsibilities and to be a little more aware of how a bit of banter can suddenly become a big issue.

One thing is for certain, somebody is always offended by something nowadays so players have to be extra careful what they're posting on Twitter or FB.

See, I don't get why there's such a huge fuss over things that sound like other things.

Honestly some people get offended by anything these days


[sizelet's see who gets that one[/size

Think Elliott's learnt a few lessons from this episode. Hopefully he'll be able to spell some words properly before he goes on social media again.

Seems that casual homophobia still widely acceptable on here then? Shall we wheel out the black jokes too and be done with it.
Well done mods.
