News from the other side

Well, to some people it’s the other side. To me, it’s home. It’s the gay/perverted side!

There’s been some interesting developments in the world of the GLBT community lately, and I figured I would share them, along with a few fun and vaguely related videos.

First up, two things that were bound to come together at some point, though I would have preferred it not be like this : homosexuality and homeopathy.

Turns out that the website for the German organization the Union of Catholic Physicians (or whatever marvelous multisyllabic clusterfuck that is in German) has drawn some serious fire from German and international gay and lesbian rights groups because their website apparently recommends various homeopathic “cures” for homosexuality.

I find this completely hilarious. I mean, homeopathy is some of the most pathetic bullshit in the world, so I can’t exactly be bothered to be offended by it. Homeopathy says to “treat like with like”, so in order to cute the gay, they presumably are taking one ounce of gay and diluting it with twenty gallons of water, thus, according to the precepts of homeopathy, making it far far more potent.

So I am guessing the treatment is some water that tastes very faintly of cock. Or cum. Or lord knows what, seeing as homeopathy encourages all kinds of moronic logical fallacy (or is that phallus-ies?) like reasoning by analogy. Maybe they thing the cure for teh gay involves essence of straightness.

So, really dilute Hai Karate, I guess.

In defense of the Union of Catholic Physicians, the head of it says their website has not been updates in a long time. Since the Middle Ages, apparently.

Here’s a video that really takes the piss (which I am guessing they use to treat kidney disease) out of that hole homeopathy nonsense.

Oh, and “A&E” is British for “emergency room”.

Also in gay BLT news, the megacorp Home Depot has come under attack by hate grouns like the American Family Association for support gay pride marches. Their response? Same as Cee-lo’s : FUCK YOU.

The AFA pulled their usual bullshit of claiming they have a petition with half a million signatures of people who have all agreed to totally boycott Home Depot unless they stop supporting gay pride events.

Right wing hate organizations of completely lying about these petitions, or wildly exaggerating the number of signatures, or using laughably flawed methodology to pad the numbers (“Do you like toast? Yes? Well, it’s well known that everyone who likes toast hates gays, so…. we will put you down as supporting our Cure Gays With Fire initiative then… ), so their threats of boycott mean nothing on the face of it.

But even if the number of signatures is legit, it’s still meaningless, because a petition is hardly a legally binding contract, and so it’s a very poor predictor of what people will actually do. Signing a petition when some righteous twit shoves it in your face is easy. Changing where you shop is hard.

But even if they did have the power to cause half a million people to tow the line, not every one of them shops at Home Depot, and those who do might not do a lot of business with them, so honestly, it is no big threat at all.

Add to that the bad publicity that would come from caving to the AFA, and it was a no brainer. The CEO of Home Depot himself personally told the AFA where to go.

Here is the video of the story as told by the person who asked the CEO the question in the first place :

Aww, he’s all butt hurt because a CEO had ethics.

To that kind of hateful talk, I have just this response :

HELL yeah. That is my favorite “gay power” video of all time. Sorry for the low video quality, I acquired this video way back in the day of modems and such. It’s totally worth it. The video has a kick ass message, amazing content richness, and the Gay Pimp Daddy is totally smoking nuclear freaking hot.

If I met him in the real world ans he was even one millionth as awesome as he is in the video, I would probably follow him around like a little puppy dog.

Finally, a tribute to a subject (surprisingly) near and dear to many women’s hearts : vaginal fisting!

Not exactly stellar production values, but still, highly amusing and highly educational.

Myself, the prospect scares me… those lady parts are delicate. But hey, it’s not my vagoo you are spelunking, so hey, whatever makes your cherry fizz, ladies.

See, straight guys? Date a fat chick. They’re more fun!
