Unfortunately, I'm not a mind reader, so I have no clue why it was deemed unexceptable. (I can probably guess, but again, it would be speculation)

However, I will say again (as expected) that this is a private site. The owners make the rules. If they don't want it, then case closed. No explanation is required.

Suffering from ads?

Would it be okay for a picture of two girls kissing? I'd be surprised if no-one's ever had one of them before...

That pic was allowed when were posting pictures a while ago. So long as the men were not kissing, or doing some sex act, it was deemed okay.

MrFun had a drawing of two men embracing for a long time has his avatar, no one seemed to complain.


Especially as the site is owned by a Greek, that kind of stuff should be normal...

But if it were a heterosexual couple I bet it'd be ok. That's discrimination

Well, it all strikes me as arbitrary and with more than just a hint of bias. But dear leaders are dear leaders.

Too bad I'll have to replace his pic with an image of something he will likely find even more distasteful.

Thank you Boris... I've made the change.

Frankly, I don't think there is any bias at all. If somebody created an avatar with a hetro couple all over each other in a sexually seuggestive manner, I don't think that would be allowed either.

Remember, they do consider this a family site, and don't even allow babe threads... plus, when they did, the guidelines were far stricter than many other sites.

Democrats have rigged California just as Republicans have rigged Texas. They'd have to get much more then 50% of the vote in order to win because voting districts are designed to divide up Republican areas and concentrate Democratic areas. Republicans would need around 55%-60% before they'd start winning the majority of voting districts.

At 45% of the vote though Bush did do unussually strong in California.
