I would not call Lee's comment 'gay bashing'. All he was doing was describing
the exact opposite of what I had described, with no connotations of value or
worth attached. Now, I've had a number of gay and lesbian freinds that I've hung
out with, but I would not go to a gay or lesbian bar looking to meet someone to
develop a romantic interest, only because I am not gay. Just because I'm not
interested in meeting and/or developing a romantic relationship with a lesbian
does not make me homophobic, its just realistic. I mean, what is the likelihood
that a lesbian would want a relationship with a guy, especially one who likes to
hunt and eat animals, dislikes government, and is pro-technology? Not bloody
likely...
