MY name-calling?

I'm not letting it go, here or anywhere else. I dont put up with shit like that. I dont let homophobia go quietly. I fight it.
YOU stop ruining this otherwise civil forum with YOUR bigotry.

Ib, you might want to read this link......http://psychology.ucdavis.edu/rainbo...prej_defn.html

The article describes a heterosexual's open dislike and or beratement of homosexuality as not at all a phobia, an irrational fear, but a prejudice. It can brought out by such as a homosexual indicating that a heterosexual is "cute" (or vice versa). I personally could care less what your sexual orientation is, but you might feel a bit uncomfortable, or even offended, if I, a known heterosexual, called you "cute". You might interpret this as "queer" or "light in the loafers", id est, a put down. Obviously, you don't need me to tell you that you have every right to express your opinions in the manner you see fit, but you should realize that more often than not, a negative reaction is a retort, a return put down to a percieved put down. It's just something to think about.

All that truly counts is that you're an intelligent, talented individual. Period.

Homophobia is simply the accepted, much-used term for any kind of anti-gay or anti-queer prejudice, whether it's really a technical 'phobia' or not.

For the record I have no anti-gay ideals or prejudice, unless you are a non-consenting non-adult.

Now wipe that cum off your lips teen slut.

You are a homophobe of the worst kind - the kind that pretends he isn't a homophobe except in certain situations.
You dont have a problem with people being heterosexual; if it's any different when they're not, youre a homophobe. End of story.

Oh, the beauty of a septum piercing is you can hide it! That little piece of jewelry flips right up inside the nose and you can't see it at all. A perfect piercing for professionals.

Will probably get around to getting it repierced. Don't particularly like the look with that jewelry, but it gives me creds in the bodymod world.

I'm gonna clank in my casket.

I would think you would have trouble breathing out with some of the larger stuff like 0. That would drive me crazy.

I know people who have large gauge septum piercings, and they say not. Larger gauges tend to smell pretty bad, though.

I wonder why that is, maybe bacteria gets down in the threads or something. We wash them out with hydrogen peroxide every now and then. I would think regular cleaning would eliminate that issue.

[Cloud]

Well, no-- it's like toe jam, or navel lint. A healed piercing exudes sebum, a waxy secretion from the skin, plus dead skin cells, etc. We call it "the funk" and it occurs on all healed piercings--it's one of the ways you can tell it's healed. Regular cleaning of healed piercings is very important, but it still occurs.

The hydrogen peroxide will work well for cleaning it off your jewelry. Just be sure not to use it on acrylic, because it will melt.

Personal habits, i.e., not eating lots of crap, keeping hydrated, etc. will make the body smell sweeter (piercings or not).

I didn't know that. Thanks.

Vitamin E oil works too -keeps it from building up in the first place. I had to use that when I had some piercings. No, not that kind - 4 steel screws attaching various pieces of arm bone to an aluminum frame. Now that was a fun summer. To have a six-month old.

Well darn. That talk did kinda ruin the moment... and to think, I was contemplating posting some nekkid (or partially nekkid) pictures since my co-workers aren't on here anymore. :p
