Oh my.
I went over to Big Jerry's salon to see what's going on, started reading some of Fat Che, and got directed to this now-archived bonfire on Skins's island.

Regardless of how the rumors of her being a Lesbian got started, it would be prudent of Hillary to start educating (or re-educating) folks about her sexual orientation.
Just kidding!
Edited to add that in the interests of "equal treatment" I am trying to balance out this other thread:

There's a lot of primitive hostility and acrimony and Hate at this now-forgotten bonfire.
First, the words from the big man, and then back-tracking to quote the primitives:

9. So, uh, how exactly should she go about doing that?
Have a press conference to tell the world that she's not a lesbian?
Do you realize that the act of just posting a thread about this serves to give the rumors legitimacy and spread them even more? This is a complete non-issue. Only the most rabid right-wingers believe that Senator Clinton might not be heterosexual, but they're not voting for her under any circumstances anyway.

3. ALL strong women are called 'lesbians' by the right. Don't honor their bigotroy with a response.

24. and all strong African American men are 'boys' to the right. the door swings both ways here.
bigotry is bigotry. both Obama and Clinton will have to confront it.

15. I think that the poster meant well.
It just shows how far behind the queer community is in achieving equity.
"There's nothing wrong with being (insert minority group name)! Some of my best friends are (group name). I dated one once and man, she was HOT! (reinforcing stereotype that said minority group is hyper-sexed).

58. I'm skeptical given the post they made just above yours. Why do people think it's ok to say "I dated a bi-chick once" as if that is some secret window they have into being gay? Not to mention how obvious the use of "chick" is here. Like a slap in the face.

63. I don't understand your post.
It's your use of the term "chick" and the context you're using it that is the indictment.

72. chick is a fine term
in fact, its a pretty old slang word for women coming from the French word for chic. You can read what you want into it but don't expect me to bend too far backwards because of imagined insult. I said it before and ill say it again, sorry if you where offended but i wont be making any changes.
Oh, and as for your skepticism. It seems more related to your prejudice in this case. if you look at the original post, you will notice the winking smiley. now stfu and go bake me some cookies.

32. Nothing funny about it.
It has been the constant charge from men on the right since the beginning of the second wave.
I would like for this to be taken down. Not just locked, but taken down. It is offensive and I am a lesbian.
Is it just me, or has anyone else ever noticed that some primitives on Skins's island tend to be, uh, touchy?

They have one emotion...anger.

A couple of months ago (and I will search for the quote w/address) there was a quote by William Jefferson Clinton, " Hillary has eaten more ***** than I have."

Touchy? That's the understatement of the day...many of them live for no other reason then to be insulted...then they go into defense mode and start spouting enough BS to fill a super tanker..... :mental:
