Question Time

[pokefast]

Who's Barry Neville?

[GreekStein]

But the bit about "irrational aversion". I would imagine most heterosexual people are naturally averse to gay acts. Yes, it's probably irrational, but it's "built in". It doesn't mean however that we think any less of homosexuals or wish to discriminate against them, etc.

built in? Why do you say this? How many very young children do you think would naturally be averse to seeing two men kissing? I would say none. It's a learnt reaction, imo.

*Makes family fortune buzzer noise*

I felt sick as a young kid when seeing two men kiss and was taught no anti gay feelings by anyone.

I said 'very young' meaning babies and toddlers.  If it was a 'built in' reaction, we'd expect to see some children of that age react in the same way. I can't imagine that happening.

Prob just easier to say babies and toddlers then.

Does this mean if babies and toddlers aren't averse to it, it's ok? cos they generally don't have a clue about what the hell is going on

I was just using this to query cf's contention that the reaction is 'built in' which implies that it's something you're born with. Babies and toddlers will cry if they are hurt, and probably get frightened if they see someone dressed as a scary monster, for example - those are 'built in' reactions. You can't claim something is 'built in' if it's something you've learned to react a certain way to after birth.

Most interesting thread in the history of blonde imo.

He gets stick for saying what millions of brits are thinking.... discuss.

The communist labour party get to spout their propoganda using taxpayers money ('climate change advert upsetting kids').

Discuss.

Half of your post on here have been anti labour, which is pretty impressive for a poker forum. The other half were promoting PKR, who presumably donate to the Conservative party.

My replies have been in political slant forum messages, I only play on PKR (promoting ?) how do you work that one out ?

I hate the Labour Party, and the BBC even more. It's coming out in the wash today about the hostility, does it surprise you ? Not me ?

Ever wondered about the close links between the BBC and the Labour Party? There is a revolving door between the two organisations:

Chairman Gavin Davies (later Labour adviser)
Chairman Sir Michael Lyons (previously Labour council chief)
Director General John Birt (later Labour adviser)
Director General Greg Dyke (previously Labour donor and candidate)
C.O.O Caroline Thomson (previously Roy Jenkin's aide)
Head of Political Research Bill Bush (later Labour spin doctor)
Deputy Head of ditto Catherine Rimmer (later Labour spin doctor)
Director of Strategy Ed Richards (later Labour spin doctor)
Head of Corporate Planning James Purnell (now ex Labour Minister)
Head of Northern Ireland News Tom Kelly (later Labour spin doctor)
Scottish News Editor Tim Luckhurst (previously lLabour spin doctor)
Political News Editor Joy Johnson (later Labour spin doctor)
Political Editor Andrew Marr (student Labour organiser)
Home News Editor Celia Barlow (now Labour MP)
Head of European Affairs Chris Bryant (now Labour MP)
Newsnight Producer Phil Woolas (now Labour Minister)
Foreign Correspondent Martin Sixsmith (later Labour spin doctor)
Current Affairs Reporter Ben Bradshaw (now Labour Minister)
Current Affairs Reporter Lance Price (later Labour spin doctor)
"Question Time" Editor Gill Penlington (previously Labour researcher)
Many of them actually worked for the Labour party before, after and even during their BBC employment.
There are hundreds more, all in key editorial positions.

Yeah, because 'very young children' are usually 46 years old.

It's a conditioned response.  They're 'trained' to respond that way by parents, friends and other influences.

You calling the Labour Party "communist" invalidates all your opinions because you are obviously a Daily Mail reactionary.

Is there an ignore button on blonde? Because my time on here would be improved no end if I never read another one of your posts.

How on earth are the Labour Party communist?

[kinboshi]

Well, Nick Griffin isn't racist...and no one on this thread is homophobic, so maybe the Labour party is communist?

[Ecosse]

How on earth are the Labour Party communist?

1st rule of communism. Nationalise the money supply. Done a damn fine job their the scum.

Comrade Brown has bankrupted the fuckin nation in case you hadn't noticed and has been embarking on a scorched earth policy since he failed to save the world (the snot picking gibbering lunatic who should be in a straight jacket).

And Kinboshi, i'm afraid I could do without reading another one of your wimpish 'PC correct shite' posts.

p.s. Mandelson - the man actually pulling the strings at the moment

In his youth, he briefly rebelled against his family's Labour tradition and in 1971 left the Labour Party Young Socialists (LPYS) to join the Young Communist League, then the youth wing of the Communist Party of Great Britain.

go down the entire cabinet you'll find similar commies.

Don't read them then.  I find your posts highly entertaining.

I thought the first rule of communism was 'don't talk about communism'?

It took 15 pages before the "PC gone mad" phrase was used (well, nearly).
