Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
Geez, you guys need to get more creative with your innuendo. Aren't men supposed to be able to turn anything into innuendo?
MEN?!? Don't forget us lowly women. Hi. I'm Bonzai. In case you didn't realize, I think everything is a sexual innuendo.
And you also didn't question whether my dog sh*t/dvd/mail slot comment could be viewed as innuendo. Don't worry pumpkin, I know you have a mind more sexually twisted than my own.

I actually hadn't really been on Inforoo all day, so I couldn't comment. My boss is digging a hole in Israel for the next month so I am the top of the food chain and am actually quite busy (shocking for this time of year). But even if I did have time, I would have assumed that for it's literal meaning. Because you are Flanzo, your ex is your ex and therefore, your story doesn't surprise me at all.

A North Carolina lawmaker says she feels "rotten" after accidentally voting to override the veto of a bill to legalize fracking—the controversial technique of extracting natural gas—in the state.
Rep. Becky Carney, a Democrat from Mecklenburg, said she accidentally voted late Monday to override the governor's veto after asking fellow Democrats to uphold it. The House voted 72-47 against the veto—with Carney's vote clinching the number of votes needed for the override. - Yahoo News ^^^

I always thought it would be interesting to find out what athletes and rappers are secretly gay. They exist, there's no doubt in my mind, but I understand why they would hesitate to come out publicly. Those are two worlds that aren't exactly beacons of tolerance and understanding.
At least recent surveys show it's split for NFL players. It's sad that some meathead still thinks that a gay guy can't shower in the same locker room without trying to jump him, but I bet if you took that poll 10 years ago it would've be overwhelmingly negative. Progress, I guess.
Well, Wade Davis came out and I didnt see any backlash. Granted he waited until he wasnt playing anymore and I'm sure people that did have an issue tried to stay quiet.
I think it's a step forward. And now Frank Ocean. So, hopefully, a few people can feel more comfortable about being open and see that audiences are more interested in how you play or how you sing than who you love.
He's a rapper/R&B singer who has worked with Odd Future, Jay-Z, Kanye, and some others. Basically, he's started to get some real notoriety and gaining solid traction in the R&B/hip-hop world.
And Chico, I agree. John Amaechi coming out was the probably the biggest athlete to come out because he also wrote a book about it*. A very intelligent, well-spoken Englishman who was known for banging bodies down low, eating boards, and basically doing the "grown man bidness" job of the NBA game. People were floored when they saw this big tough behemoth was gay. It helped to begin breaking the stereotypes people had for the way a gay man should look. When a 6'10" 280 pound mountain comes out publicly, Herp D. Derp Jr. stops thinking every gay guy looks like Richard Simmons.
**The book is titled Man In The Middle and it is, simply put, a fantastic read. Amaechi is borderline-brilliant and some of his stories and perspectives really made me sit and think.
Quick tangent/story. After the book came out (200...7, I believe) my high school friends and I were sitting on one of our parent's decks getting hammered in the summer between semesters. This book had been released earlier that year (I think in the early spring) and somehow it became the topic of conversation. It's funny how it worked out, but I started by saying "Whatever, I played sports with you guys for 12 years, if one of you were gay I wouldn't have cared then and I don't care now." One by one guys around the table agreed with sentiment until one of our friends, who was oddly silent ("oddly" because he's louder and talks more than I do) just blurted out "guysI'mgay." So fast that we had to ask him to repeat himself, which he did. There was a moment of silence until someone said "that doesn't excuse you from not finishing your beer, d*ck" and we went back to living life as we had for the previous 21+ years. I realize that isn't the way most people get to come out, or choose to, but my friend said it gave him confidence to then come out to his parents and family (really old-school Italians, so his hesitation is understandable).
I don't know why I felt compelled to share that, but I guess it goes with the whole athlete/rapper thing.
I'm just afraid that it seems like for every John Amaechi, there are plenty of Tim Hardaways of the sports world. What a clown that guy is.
Ugh, I hope Tim Hardaway's kids turn out to be gay. Actually, no I don't, because he'll try to kill them or send them to a "you're not gay, you're just a confused straight person!" camps for 10 years.
I think what will ultimately drive the acceptance of gays in sports is, unfortunately, money. You come out as a hateful fear mongering anti-lgbt fanatic and you will in turn lose endorsements, will lose salary when they sign their next deal, and so on. It's sad things like "common sense" and "decency" aren't enough for people to be accepting of one another.
