ORIGINAL: michaelGA2 i would have declined to work that event. Yeah, it certainly would be frightening, working at a gay event. There's the fear that 2,700 gay guys are going to find you attractive, and there's the fear of being so ugly that not even one will find you attractive. No doubt you would find working with my friends on Hidden Frontier equally frightening (www.hiddenfrontier.org) because about half of them are gay, and they actually wrote a couple of GAY characters into Star Trek! Oh, the horrors, that gays are allowed to tell people that they will still exist three centuries from now, instead of getting cured (like all those nasty people with the congenital defect of having BLUE eyes). I'm homophobic myself. I admit it. The difference is that I don't boast about it, I try to fight it. Your smug comment that you wouldn't work at a gay event is just a boast: "I'm too narrow-minded to get along with ten percent of the populace, and I wouldn't knowingly stay in the same room with one, let alone touch one!" [frowning] What I don't understand is why you think that's something to be proud of.
