I get heartily sick of hearing gay this, gay that, gay the other. Just get on with it gays.Many are pissed off hearing about you !



This reminds me of something Billy Bragg, an English singer-songwriter once said on the subject. He said, basically, that he didn't need to know someone's sexual preference, and that unlike a section of the gay community that introduce themselves by saying "I'm Fred, and I'm gay", he didn't feel the need to introduce himself "I'm Bill, and I like shagging birds from behind." :)

some racy things go on in a gay bar

I have been in bars of all persuasions and other than the odd face-sucking, I have never seen anything even vaguely "racy"...maybe its just where I live

Australian pub bars heterosexuals  A gay pub in the city of Melbourne has won the right to ban heterosexuals - the first time such legislation has been passed in Australia.
 
The Victorian state civil and administrative tribunal ruled the Peel Hotel could ban patrons based on their sexual orientation.

The pub's management said the move would stop groups of heterosexual men and women abusing gay people.
Civil liberties groups have supported the decision.

To me, this is only right if homosexuals wouldn't complain about not being let into heterosexual bars.

Since I'm not about to be told where I can and can not drink because of my sexuality, I'm not a fan...

Australia's equal opportunity laws prevent discrimination based on race, religion or sexuality.



Doesn't sound very "Equal Opportunity" to me.  I'm all for human rights...whether they be gay rights, poly rights, whatever, but to claim equal opportunity and then to permit discrimination sounds sucky to me.


I agree.
