Lines: 41 >>But remember it's only fair to apply the same criteria to homosexuality, so >>be careful! (It hurts someone, it's against the law, it's against accepted >>values, etc.) Who does it hurt, Ken? It doesn't hurt ME. What laws? (Or, to rephrase that, what ENFORCED laws). Sexual acts between two consenting adults are not exactly investigated by the police anymore. Who sets these accepted values Ken? You? I sure hope not. I am accepted by most people I know.. people I live with, work with, am friends with, my parents, the rest of my family. Let's face it, even with people like you out there, homosexuality is becoming more accepted around the country. And in reference to the statement 'is MOTSS a microcosm of society', the definite answer is NO! Society in general does not use UNIX, does not post messages to the UUCP net. And until they do, we have to realize that we are dealing with a subgroup of humanity, a very select subgroup, with probably the same amount of homosexuals as the rest of society, but not your 'average homosexualty'. And in reference to pedophelia, it DOES NOT BELONG HERE! Pedophelia is not limited to gays AT ALL, why stick it on us. Sure, it's a problem but in the same way murder is a problem around society, it's not a specifically GAY problem. Also, I though you were going, Ken. Why don't you just do what you said you were going to do, or admit you like being able to make people mad at you who you will never see. I really don't care especially, but I worry about those people who read motss and never post anything, because I know that the general consensus is that you are a feeb, and really should be ignored.
