Oooh sheer stereotypism ... some would find offensive ... I think yuo'll find pinkers are just as diverse as non-pinkers ... personally I like this film

hmmm where's the irony icon when you need it. The stereotyping was exactly the point. To spell it out - I was replacing one stereotype with another. HOWEVER being literal I am unsure as to whether pinkers are just as diverse as non-pinkers. This is almost predicated against by the fact that they make up a minority of any given sample group and thus have less potential for diversity. To spell this out let's assume that in any group of 20 people 3 are gay. The 3 can have 3 preferences, the 17 can have 17.

By the looks of it, not that many! But then remember they may have surveyed the same people that though GNF was a good idea (not that we ever found one of them).

Well either he is being badly misquoted or the guy is an idiot [V]

On the other subject, I don't think that is fair, every gay male and female I know love breasts, is there anyone that doesn't like breasts?

And no I am not putting a poll up in the OT forum for this.
