OK. Suits me. I'd still like to know why this is any different from the countless depictions of unprotected hetero sex we see on TV.

I guess by your logic that means that if I commented on a woman's looks I am gay. Now you're just getting tetchy. You really have to do better than that. I still can't see why two gay guys engaging in risky sex is somehow inappropriate for a show about the AIDS epidemic... on a pay channel... at 11pm.... when children are supposed to be in bed.

That strikes me as extremely poor moderation and, for that reason, I can't be bothered participating in Apolyton any more - if total ****ers are to be allowed to run amok, what's the point. So bye to the good people, but not to mental Canadian homos with ugly boyfriends.

Your point? Wanting to have a go at Asher for being a pathetic little **** somehow makes me a homophobe?


But don't change the subject. You are just trying to stir **** because you have no argument other than you don't like the program. Sorry.. that won't work with me.

Again -- why is this somehow out of order on a pay channel at 11 at night in a program about the AIDS epidemic?

Lots of people do... in the real world. That's one of the way AIDS spreads. The show is largely about AIDS... ergo....

Are you being dense on purpose or what? Or do gays just make your skin crawl.

But seriously, if you donīt want your kids to watch crap on television, turn it off or get some kind of channel filter that blocks all the offending channels. See? Problem solved! And btw kids that age should be in bed by 11 anyway, so I donīt really see the problem here.

Actually, it was you trying to point out personal... would you say shortcomings? as if my manhood would be insulted by being told I was in the closet by a cellar crawler such as you.

The problem, sir, is that anyone tuning in at any time sees what they see, a theatrical production where condoms are for the weak.

That's not cricket, and I don't care how gay the production is.

Obviously it was judging by the reaction. A "cellar crawler"? What next? A "dastardly fiend"? "

You seem to me to have a problem with gay sex. At least your reaction is out of all proportion to that of normal people. Especially since television is full of hetero people engaging in unprotected sex. But I guess that's different for you.


And you can give no reason why it shouldn't be on a topical program like this one.

If they watched the whole show and weren't complete morons, they might understand what it was about.

quote: That's not cricket, and I don't care how gay the production is.

Translation: you don't like it so no-one else can watch it because they might interpret it as a sign to have unprotected gay sex with people.

Actually, I would say your reactions have been out of proportion.

I'm saying I don't think irresponsible sex, or shows about it, should be on when kids are up. That is my point.

And far from your puritanical beliefs, yes, Canadian kids are up at midnight.

quote: Originally posted by notyoueither It is the 11pm to midnight time slot here. They are showing Angles in America. There was a guy asking a man in leather to '**** me hard and make me bleed.' They debate on where to go. The seeker says he does not live alone and can't go there. The man in leather says he lives with his parents. Next scene the man is bent over near a tree. The condom broke and the guy in leather asked if he should pull out. The seeker says, 'oh ****, I don't care.' The man in leather pulls out and says he would rather go home. The seeker says 'say hi to mom and dad.' Seeker gets slapped. Should that be on cable TV sometime before next century (maybe after AIDS is cured)?

Turn it off if you don't like it. However I am curious that you watched it all the way through so it seems without turning it off...

Well then NYE should not have had it on with his children around, it is his responsibility. Besides, he seems to have a very accurate recollection of what happened, like he was watching it avidly in fact Why didn't he turn it over when the prospect of gay sex first materialised...interesting don't you think?

There are many buildings across the western world (and elsewhere) where scenes of torture, mutilation and death are displayed, where naked and semi-naked bodies are on display, to all ages and sexes.


These pits of filth and depravity are called churches.

You are a "cellar crawler" for thinking that.
