Heterosexual pride day! Good idea or bad?

[flamingemt2011]

Dwayne I love you but you have no idea what you are talking about, which is no surprise as a white straight male, walk a mile in my GUCCI moccasins, then you can preach to me about when and why I am discriminated against.

1. My second employer openly asked in their 20 page application if you were gay or bi, guess what happened if you answered yes ?

2. You should see the icey stare I get from every dad when I have to transport a young male child, you can just hear it circling in their brains "you better not touch his pp"). Like being a gay man makes you a pedophile.

3. I do not "makeout" with my man in public, but like I said before, if we just sit on the same side of the booth or hold hands we get the stares from other people in the area.

4. When I am at the fire station and I call my man to tell him good night and that I miss him, you should see how quickly everyone leaves the room. They don't do that when their girlfriends call.

There is all kinds of porn, something for everyone, but it is mostly for a male audience, which is why you see 2 females alot, because it is every straight man's fantasy to have 2 women at the same time. What you guys don't know is that when it does happen, the women are usually more into each other, and not you. Which is not to say that women do not watch porn, but statistically women use "romance" novels and movies as their porn.

I'm curious...

Why do you get these icey stares? Do you carry a sign that says you are gay? How would anyone know your sexual orientation?

Because there is a quota on hiring based on sexual preference or visible minorities and your automatically hired .. I dunno ?

Then that Father is unaware that statistically openly gay males are far likely to be paedophile than a "Straight Man" Is there no criminal records checks to decrease risk assessment for EMS workers in the USA ? We have to get a "vulnerable sector" clearance before we can even put a foot in an Ambulance here in Albertastan.

A far better question are you displaying in some way that your personal sexuality is more important than that STAR of LIFE you wear ? Does it have a rainbow on it somewhere ? As I have always stated those that are "flaming" this part of ones personality is more important to there ego/ id than the dedication to the profession of Paramedicine.

3. I do not "makeout" with my man in public, but like I said before, if we just sit on the same side of the booth or hold hands we get the stares from other people in the area.

And this behaviour / reaction surprises you ? Seriously ?

4. When I am at the fire station and I call my man to tell him good night and that I miss him, you should see how quickly everyone leaves the room. They don't do that when their girlfriends call.

"My Man" is highly suggestive of some sort of "ownership" just maybe your calls become a bit more intimate than that ? Or perhaps they are tired of your activism, after all your preferred sexuality is actually an aberrancy, are you forcing those non gay's in your environment to accept YOUR values ?

There is all kinds of porn, something for everyone, but it is mostly for a male audience, which is why you see 2 females alot, because it is every straight man's fantasy <edit> Really ? to have 2 women at the same time. What you guys don't know is that when it does happen, the women are usually more into each other, and not you. Which is not to say that women do not watch porn, but statistically women use "romance" novels and movies as their porn.

I see, Dwayne knows very little about homosexuality and is learning by asking questions and your very knowledgeable in female sexuality, got the stats to prove those statements, just in passing one of my BEST FRIEND's EVER is an openly dyke woman I am the STAG HAG LOL and she would disagree with your "observations" you very obviously have never read any of Desmond Morris, and as for 2 women OMG I was married for 17 years .. 2 .... you got to be kidding please. Could it be that Men are curious to understand how to please just their partner ?

In closing, popular culture is far more accepting since the 1980s, TV is especially influential just LOOK at the number of TV shows that display gay comedy in some way or another. The list is astounding in comparison to the latest Gallop polls on real demographic breakdown, of GLAAD .. what hilarious is the anger that I observe about the Bi community is not accepted by TRUE Homosexuals.

http://www.gallup.com/poll/6961/what-percentage-population-gay.aspx

"Seeing ourselves reflected positively encourages gay people to come out," said Cathy Renna, news media director for the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD). "And when people know real gay men and lesbians it increases their level of understanding and acceptance." If you doubt that Ellen, Rosie and others have had an effect on Americans' acceptance of homosexuality, consider this -- MTV and Showtime are about to launch a cable channel directed at the homosexual market. They estimate that gays and lesbians make up 6.5% of television's audience.

But because I make a joke assuming that I am a Straight Male I could end up in a court room ?

A bit of a double standard in my humble opinion .. just saying what more do you what ?

cheers

Dear soolow mary day .. use the search engine you picked the wrong thread DUH ... I slay me .

Of course you are going to get stares when you hold hands with your man. You are also going to get stares if you kiss your man as well.

i for one will look at you and then say to myself big deal. Nothing I care to see there so I move on. Now two women making out or kissing, then I'll stay all day and look.

you must also be advertising your sexual orientation because I used to work with a Gay partner and never once did the parents of a little boy look at either of us with that "Don't touch his pp or you'll be sorry look". So I wonder why they look at you that way. Or is it that they know you and that you have done something that gives them pause?

I seriously don't know you so I can't make any judgements as to that issue.

And if you can prove bias or hiring discrimination based on that question then you should sue your second employer in a class action lawsuit bringing in all those who answered yes on that question and were not hired. You could probably retire on the settlement that you get for such blatant (serious statement here) discrimination. I for one do not want to work for a company that discriminates in that manner or any manner.

Salient point did flamingmedic give false information on an application for employment, that could be grounds for dismissal could it not ?

In a Hose monkey hall segregation of sleeping arrangements should be a "consideration" to be politically incorrect ?

Or maybe they need to have an all Gay fire house?

[tniuqs]

Well as we have been informed by the "expert on gay men" ALL men have thought about that.

Or maybe they need to have an all Gay fire house?

Wouldn't a flaming fire station be sort of ironic?

[Richard B the EMT]

Wouldn't a flaming fire station be sort of ironic?

Only if, as has happened, the fire house is actually burning. I heard of a 5 alarmer fire house fire some 30 years ago.

This is the last of my time I'm going to waste on you Flaming as you're either intellectually unable, or uninterested in discussing topics instead of simply making the same comments you've made before over and over.

As to 'seeing it in the father's eyes' if you are seeing such a thing then you don't belong on those calls.

There is a reason that most services don't allow facial piercings, or uncovered full sleeved tattoos, or long/unkept hair, because it makes people uncomfortable. Do those things define the person and the provider? Most often not, in my experience. Is it unfair to be judged for such things? I don't know...it's not my way to judge people on such things but many if not most of the patients we care for come from much different backgrounds and generations than I do. It is what it is, and a professional provider will take such things seriously.

If your behavior is making your sexuality so obvious that it makes patients uncomfortable then you don't belong around them and you need to stop the hypocritical patient advocate rants. But of course you see the father as a oppressor and deserving of the discomfort that you bring to his emergency situation, right?

It seems that, like most radical minorities in my experience, you believe that you know all about me, but that I know nothing about you. Bullshit. That is the nonsense that you use to stay blind so as to also allow you to stay weak. I'm sorry to see it in you.

I can't imagine the service stupid enough to ask your specific sexuality on an application. It's simple really, if you don't get hired then take that to ANY lawyer, it doesn't even have to be a good one, and you'll be financially set for a long while. I don't believe you when you say that this happened. And I don't believe that most gays are stupid enough to tolerate such a thing.

Anyway, until you learn to discuss like an adult instead of a child claiming for the 100th time to be right despite the evidence...I'm not wasting any more time.

And for the record....Love you too Flaming...Merry Christmas man...
