takes, because atheists are just below gays on the ladder of hatred in America and you sure don't see us jeopardizing our jobs or social status
marching for our liberty to pursue happiness.
I would expect Mexicans would have a generally pretty progressive view about sexual preference. Wasn't there a hugely popular day time Mexican TV host
who was a tranny? Look at the social status of a Mexican dwarf. Things are different SOB.
"A southern Mexican city, Juchitan de Zaragoza is historically noted to be tolerant and accepting of gay men...."
Juchi is a lot more different than you think. Women run the place. Women are the head of the family in Zapoteco country. Presidentes Municipales are
women. In Tehunatepéc, Salina Cruz, Tepanetepéc, the society is matriarchal. The wimmmens go around in public brightly dressed with headdresses. This
would not make for a representative sample for the country.
The guys get to plan fiestas, steal money out of the cookie jar to play la loteria and avoid bending over to pick up the soap in the shower.

They need a badass chapter of "Daughter's Of Anarchy."
This definition could apply to Dennis and at least one other Nomad. Maybe more.
Media is filled with politicians and religious bigots like this. Doesn't matter to me what these guys say -- I think they're attracted to gays and the
lifestyle. And it's unfortunate that they torture themselves claiming otherwise.

What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

Yeah....and my commiephobia indicates I'm a closet Marxist too.
OK, Lee....it's now on you to show us when and where I exhibited a phobia of any sort here.
I mean "phobia"...as in fear.
One instance......just one.
Where the *** does it say that disagreeing with anybody, or anything they say and do, is a reaction born of fear?
I'm disgusted with taggers. Does that mean I have tagger-phobia?
I have a hateful aversion to child molesters. Does that mean I am hindered by a pervert-phobia?
I've said, time and time again, I have no objection to gays living their private lives. They, nor their lifestyle, mean sht to me.
What I object to is a portion of the gay community forcing their presence on me and insisting I accept it. As far as I'm concerned, they can go the
way of radical Muslims.
I have no room in my life for either one.
I'm actually slightly surprised, as well as gratified by the open mindedness of the Nomad community. It tells me something about my fellow Baja
travelers. Something good.

I think Lee might have a point here, because Dennis spends way to much time on this thread telling us how he dislikes gays shoving their lifestyle
down on him, and telling him to accept it.
I also understand that Dennis has never been married, and lives in Mexico, where it's very common for Mexican women to whisper behind the backs of
unmarried men, and say certain things about unmarried men who have never had a wife, and are rarely seen with a girlfriend or any girl for that
matter.
Shame on those Mexican women who spread rumors like that, and they seem to spread those rumors about the younger guys who never been married in their
30's or 40's especially if they are still living with Mamma.
Oh Joe....you silly little delusional A-rab. Quite trying to start trouble.
How did you escape from the constraints of the OT? Someone should be out looking for you with a Thorazine injection.
