I have known and befriended gays and lesbians, some of whom are / were roleplayers – but I don't think I know any who are wargamers
Nor do I. However, there are several transgender TMP'ers that I know of (MTF). Maybe the editor in is infinite wisdom should consider whether gender politics shouldn't come under his blanket ban on political discussion. How strange that a "brand new" member has such strong opinions

Well, I've been a member for donkey's years, and I think he might have a point, old boy! This does look as if you are simply rattling the cage, Ed. Appears to be working, too, as I am prompted to log in and post for the first time in an age, if only to ask Precopius why he feels the need to a) deny any niggling doubts, b) condemn the immorality of others and c)reaffirm his masculinity
as if the huge bouncing breast were insufficient to assure us all of his "straight as an arrow" orientation

I'd answer the Marquis, but I don't know if he's talking about me or not. Precopius?? Couldn't be me, the 'e' and the 'o' are at opposite ends of the keyboard, so that couldn't be a typo, could it? Ah stuff it, I'll answer anyway. a) No doubts whatsoever, niggling or otherwise b) YOU state that it IS in fact IMmorality, so therefore it needs to be condemned. But do I condemn? No, but I know that immorality is wrong c) At 52 I'm over the whole macho thing, with no need to "reaffirm my masculinity. My avatar is because like most men, I love boobs. Something the misses out on. |

Or was the purpose of this topic to gather up Dawghouse inmates? I think it would be pretty hypocritical of the Editor to DH anyone who freaks out over this question. You know what they say about people who have to openly discuss/prove their heterosexuality. Or their homosexuality/etc. I am annoyed by anyone who feels compelled to grab me by the lapels and shout their sexuality at me. To me, it's not "Don't ask, don't tell', but "I don't know, and I don't care." But from an evolutionary POV, surely we are supposed to evolve to something higher or better. You miss the whole point of evolution. Evolution is not about progress or betterment. It is ONLY about the fact that those who get around to breeding are those who reproduce. |

I have been accused of being gay because I'm single. I;ve worked with gays/lesbians and they just want to do the job, take the money and go home. I suffer from 'diminished libido' due to meds I'm taking. So, unless I'm painting up a SS Panzer Swish platoon, I don't see the relevancy. This hobby allows me to escape and that's what it's all about. |
pavelft | 07 Jun 2010 10:03 a.m. PST |
I don't think TMP is an environment that would be conducive to coming out. For someone who is LGBT, and already under attack from society in general, coming out in a place that doesn't take them seriously is probably not a comfortable thing to contemplate. |
Marquis | 07 Jun 2010 10:13 a.m. PST |
Ah
a witty and erudite response as ever from Mr. P, topped off with yet another allusion to his manly prowess! Good lord, but the testosterone must flow like wine, back at the old homestead
I am particularly impressed with the use of evolution AND in the same paragraph! Well done, that man! If only Alexander could have seen the error of his ways, eh? Think what he might have accomplished, notwithstanding his "missing out on boobs". :) |

I'm going to say this: Anyone, and I mean anyone who holds themselves to be better because of the gender of whom they wish to share their intimacy with is a very silly person indeed. Bill, with all due respect, if anyone's of the LGBT persuasion on TMP, I really don't wanna know, and I really don't care. I more care about what periods they play (Burn all the 2mm players, they're just playing with grains of rice anyhow! ;-)) |

"Maybe it's like the old Jewish joke that if you eat non-Kosher pork (verbotten) and dairy (verbotten to be consumer along with meat) at the same time they cancel out eachother." I have yet to seethe a kid in its mother's milk. And I could buy the concept of kashrut. But as you know, Steve, Jewish observance is full of workarounds, and not just in jokes. So when it's considered a requirement to wait several hours between meat and dairy--but it's to OK eat dairy, simply rinse your mouth and eat something pareve, and then you're able to immediately eat meat--I have a hard time taking it seriously. And it's really hard to explain to the youngsters. But then, I wear cotton/polyester garments, too, so I am a sinner. Allen |
aecurtis | 07 Jun 2010 1:33 p.m. PST |
Would it really make a difference if I, for example, had ever gotten frisky with fellers, as well as perpetuating the species with the distaff side? Other than M1Fanboy, who wouldn't want to know, would that really matter to anyone? Would that change anyone's opinion of a cranky, know-it-all, old TMPer? I am curious to know. Allen |
Editor in Chief Bill | 07 Jun 2010 1:35 p.m. PST |
Wouldn't this normally be a blue fez topic & get others DHed? Why do you get to break the rules yourself? It's a request for a poll, not a call to discuss the morality of various sexual behaviors. Maybe the title should have read "Are you homosexual?" so I could avoid it. Bisexuals and many transexuals do not consider themselves to be homosexual. |
