What the hell is "homosexual behavior"?
I hear this term bounced around all the time by right-wingers.

When I'm sitting, reading DU on my laptop while coincidentally wearing a rainbow sweatshirt, is that "homosexual behavior"?

1. Nathan Lane; i.e. camp
Anything else doesn't fit into their rigid worldview.

2. You have to understand that these right wingers' only experience with sexual
behavior is with Rosie Palms.

5. And holding hands. Or dancing with someone of the same gender.
Unless you are one of the practitioners of the more whack job religious rights, in which case dancing with someone of the same gender is perfectly okay as long as it isn't two guys.

4. How dare you flaunt your "homosexual behavior" in such an extroverted manner!
Wearing a rainbow t-shirt in while typing on the public internet!

Have you no decency?

Do realize that thousands of marriages just evaporated because of your flaunting yourself?

Har-rumph!


(hopefully no sarcasm tag needed)

6. Good question
Honestly.

I can imagine it, but I dare say I have not witnessed it.

Then again, my "gaydar" is broken; always has been.

My female friends have had to point it out to me...

My own brother had to spell it out to me.

Really? You're gay? Interesting.

:shrug:

I'm not kidding; I always envied his good looks, and the stream of women who befriended him...

Only later did I learn that he envied me.

So much so, that he deliberately scarred his forehead, to have scars that matched my measles scars...

I was so clueless...

7. I'm gonna guess, since it's a GOP invention ...
... it is anything that a gay person would do.

They won't know if it is homosexual behavior until they can first determine if the person doing it is gay.

11. Hmmm
*takes a glance at the checklist*

Yep, that's counts. The sweatshirt thing, however, doesn't, because that would mean I engaged in homosexual behavior when I was three...

13. Believe it or not, I asked my red neck Uncle that same question one time. He told me,
"Well, don't know about women. But for men, it's those who like the pole more than they like the hole."

Just beware, their is a red neck philosopher wandering around soemwhere in Kentucky right now.

16. It's what I would do if I woke up one night and found Ryan Phillippe naked in bed with me.
As long as he was willing, of course . . . :)

19. Homosexual behavior?
Oh, you know - it's things like getting up in the morning, going to work, paying bills, seeing friends, cooking meals, doing yard work, raising a kid, working on the house, taking the dogs to the vet's. You know - disgusting things like that.:sarcasm:

Disclaimer: I am a straight female - I offer the above examples of homosexual behavior from observing the general behavior of several friends who are lesbians, so if I've gotten it wrong, I apologize.

wash clothes, and then go to bed and start all over again in the morning.


Republicans tend to romanticize it. If they actually knew any, they'd see they are just as normal and boring as everybody else.

My sister in law works too hard and is too tired to even try to live the stereotypical "gay lifestyle."

26. Just from the sexual standpoint, there isn't anything that same sex couples do with each other
--that opposite sex couples don't also do. Any bisexual could explain this.

28. Walking into a party and singing "Clang Clang Clang"....
and waiting to see who chimes in "goes the trolley"?

Sorry, it was a joke one of my best friends used to tell on how to "scope" out a party for possible partners...

He died from AIDS in '92 just after Christmas.

Peace Coby where ever you are.
