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 1017 Views
? not that her comment was excusable... LadyLorraine - 08/09/2010 07:45:59 PM 1083 Views
It's not a cardinal sin against humanity... Phelix - 08/09/2010 07:55:55 PM 1209 Views

Just because you search does not mean you re-evaluate. Phelix - 08/09/2010 08:45:31 PM 894 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 972 Views
I was trying to use her words... Phelix - 08/09/2010 10:17:32 PM 1042 Views
Ah, okay. Her apology does seem rather clumsy, agreed there. Legolas - 08/09/2010 11:05:34 PM 929 Views
Glad to clear up that confusion. Phelix - 08/09/2010 11:11:35 PM 1114 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 976 Views
I'm horrible for tearing into the meaning of words. Phelix - 08/09/2010 11:36:34 PM 967 Views
Entirely agree *NM* ironclad - 08/09/2010 10:46:12 PM 499 Views
You should watch that Southpark episode where they change the meaning of the word faggot. Helene - 08/09/2010 09:24:16 PM 865 Views
I've seen it, and it was funny. Phelix - 08/09/2010 09:40:43 PM 1060 Views
Suspect you need to consider the way the word is used in other countries. Rebekah - 08/09/2010 09:46:05 PM 932 Views
I admit, I don't know many (any) kiwis personally (in person that is)... Phelix - 08/09/2010 09:52:45 PM 920 Views
The insult word for homosexuals Downunder tends to be Fruit or Queer. Rebekah - 08/09/2010 09:58:04 PM 1110 Views
OK, I can see that. Phelix - 08/09/2010 10:09:16 PM 991 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 975 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 1070 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 928 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 969 Views
Or, she was replying to interview questions and thinking on her feet. Rebekah - 08/09/2010 11:10:26 PM 1045 Views
This is my first encounter with her. Phelix - 08/09/2010 11:24:42 PM 1166 Views
Don't forget Poofta!! LadyLorraine - 08/09/2010 10:57:00 PM 773 Views
Heh, I had forgotten that. Rebekah - 08/09/2010 10:58:53 PM 982 Views
She said she needs to learn to think before she tweets lol Sidious - 08/09/2010 08:14:38 PM 1171 Views

mm, i doubt that would make people shut up LadyLorraine - 08/09/2010 08:44:29 PM 859 Views
A concerted effort would do it... Phelix - 08/09/2010 08:47:50 PM 943 Views
