| Quote Ruddy Duck="Ruddy Duck"Have you considered that a reason for a surge of 80% might be as a result of LGBT putting gays and lesbians more and more in the limelight with Pride events and parades which only antagonise some members of the public and lead to more abuse and physical attacks on them.
A couple of gays I know think so and will not participate in the events and parades as in their opinion, it is publicity which is doing as much harm as good for their sexiality.'"
Poor logic.
You're saying that people with outdated and hateful views, willing to commit actual crimes in the name of that hate, are the social victims in all this? That those people who have had to grow-up in fear of what these people do everyday should have to sink into obscurity so as not to offend the timid sensibilities of bigots?
Unbelievable.

| Quote Pieman="Pieman"I think your mistaken, people arent saying be gay just not near me, people are getting annoyed with it being thrust in their faces, I dont want to explain to my 9 year old about it as at 9 he has no sexual orientation as hes 9 and just wants to play with toys and his friends. I support the community as I have gay friends that are gay, (for me not all) I think there is a time and place for it...the parade/celebration I mean'"
This. The most important part of it all is it’s being pushed onto children. Like you say, they’ve no idea what any of it means, they just want to play with their toys, computer games and play rugby.
And as it’s shown the issue is divisive, some are for it, some against it and it’s not up to the club to start fixing social ills, that’s for the politicians to sort out.
If LGBTQ just want acceptance then stop making a big song and dance about it, attention seeking and taking over other events because that’s turning people against you.

Never understand the "what do i tell my kids" argument. What do you tell them on valentines day? St Patricks day? any other day? "that person is dressed that way because xyz".
Its not exactly going to be Rocky Horror though is it? We are talking flags and rainbows at most.

Do the club promote Valentine’s Day and Paddy’s day like they are this one? You say you’re only bringing flags and rainbows? The only colours should be cherry and white and the only flags Wigan flags. Whatever you do in the bedroom keep it in the bedroom and stop forcing it onto other peoples especially when there’s kids involved. You say it’s only a flag, is the thin end of the wedge.

If the matches fall on those days then yes, they do.
I'm not bringing anything, i just couldnt care less if anyone else does. as for "what goes on in the bedroom", if you have to put it that way, primary schools are taught basic sex ed, so they already know what goes on there.

Primary school children are taught about reproduction and biology, normal stuff. It’s not up to the club to start teaching and preaching about what’s right and wrong and what we should think. They need to just get on with being a rugby club.
They say it’s about inclusion and tolerance, so then go and announce it on the day when Folou would be playing, not very inclusive and tolerant of Folous beliefs is it?

The club arent teaching and preaching right and wrong, or what you should think. Anyone would think they arent letting you in if you arent gay or cross dressing. It's just a day to celebrate people being people.
Folau has said he has no issue with gay people so he should be ok with it. And if he was that bothered about his religious beliefes he wouldnt be playing on a Sunday, or he would be put to death.

People being people? Is that what you’re calling it now?

A few could have wrote ‘Agree with me or you’re intolerant’.
