Re: Yes, but that's just a surface change. Sidious Send a noteboard - 08/09/2010 08:39:52 PM

I think it would be better for her if she addressed why she thinks it's an insult to call someone a faggot, and work on that within herself.


Yip... pity it took Jaguar to make her think about herself.

Oooh... good point. :D When I visited your country, I met a trio of rugby playing brothers. We were at a BBQ (grilled boerwors are delicious) and there was a pool... rugby players jumping in and out of water all afternoon... it was all I could do not to stare. :shy:


I know you. You did stare. Lol.

True, it will... but if she apologizes and then works to show she's learned by publicly sponsoring some queer event, or some such, it will get pushed down.


Then again, people have forgiven Tiger Woods pretty quickly.

1. That girl is an idiot who needs to do some soul searching... Phelix - 08/09/2010 07:07:47 PM 1221 Views
? not that her comment was excusable... LadyLorraine - 08/09/2010 07:45:59 PM 1304 Views
It's not a cardinal sin against humanity... Phelix - 08/09/2010 07:55:55 PM 1405 Views
or it just means... LadyLorraine - 08/09/2010 08:18:57 PM 1350 Views

Just because you search does not mean you re-evaluate. Phelix - 08/09/2010 08:45:31 PM 1107 Views
You have an odd definition of homophobe (or at least that's what your last paragraph implies). Legolas - 08/09/2010 10:04:52 PM 1202 Views
I was trying to use her words... Phelix - 08/09/2010 10:17:32 PM 1303 Views
Ah, okay. Her apology does seem rather clumsy, agreed there. Legolas - 08/09/2010 11:05:34 PM 1142 Views
Glad to clear up that confusion. Phelix - 08/09/2010 11:11:35 PM 1312 Views
I don't think you should read too much in the exact wording of her apology. Legolas - 08/09/2010 11:24:21 PM 1217 Views
I'm horrible for tearing into the meaning of words. Phelix - 08/09/2010 11:36:34 PM 1187 Views
Entirely agree *NM* ironclad - 08/09/2010 10:46:12 PM 637 Views
You should watch that Southpark episode where they change the meaning of the word faggot. Helene - 08/09/2010 09:24:16 PM 1080 Views
I've seen it, and it was funny. Phelix - 08/09/2010 09:40:43 PM 1286 Views
Suspect you need to consider the way the word is used in other countries. Rebekah - 08/09/2010 09:46:05 PM 1133 Views
I admit, I don't know many (any) kiwis personally (in person that is)... Phelix - 08/09/2010 09:52:45 PM 1125 Views
The insult word for homosexuals Downunder tends to be Fruit or Queer. Rebekah - 08/09/2010 09:58:04 PM 1323 Views
OK, I can see that. Phelix - 08/09/2010 10:09:16 PM 1203 Views
I think it's unfair to people to assume that there's some underlying bad nature... Rebekah - 08/09/2010 10:18:29 PM 1177 Views
I'm not assuming there's an underlying bad nature, I am saying she should look to see if it's there. Phelix - 08/09/2010 10:27:21 PM 1268 Views
And I'm saying that you're instantly looking on the negative side of things instead of Rebekah - 08/09/2010 10:46:11 PM 1140 Views
I don't think I'm looking at the negative side of things, merely saying that she needs to look. Phelix - 08/09/2010 11:01:11 PM 1193 Views
Or, she was replying to interview questions and thinking on her feet. Rebekah - 08/09/2010 11:10:26 PM 1255 Views
This is my first encounter with her. Phelix - 08/09/2010 11:24:42 PM 1398 Views
Don't forget Poofta!! LadyLorraine - 08/09/2010 10:57:00 PM 973 Views

mm, i doubt that would make people shut up LadyLorraine - 08/09/2010 08:44:29 PM 1078 Views
A concerted effort would do it... Phelix - 08/09/2010 08:47:50 PM 1157 Views
