the redneck reference was fitting to the stereotype.. straight pride is ridiculous.. there were pictures of kids wearing the website merch holding fake guns and looking like a militia for chrissake! if you saw some kids walking down the street looking like the anti-gay brigade you wouldn't be offended?

why is everyone so big on either people getting offended or you yourself getting offended... if you believe something or have an opinion about something then i think you should state it without having that fear or worry inside you that someone might get offended. pretty much any opinion you have could offend someone somewhere somehow... my opinion... zipper hoodies are better than pullover hoodies... be offended. be very offended!!

Pullover hoodies are usually made from thicker fabric, and therefore are warmer. Although, being an open-minded person, I see where you're coming from, because zip-up hoodies go on without a hassle, and have options how to wear them.
Hmm, a valid debate indeed.

I wouldnt be offended, i'd be taken back by their stupitidy and total lack of reasoning, and mad at them because of intent. the funny/sad thing about homophobes is their zealous effort and 100% dedication to homosexuals. Some might easy that homophobes spend the same or more time thinking about gay sex then gays themselves.

you are putting way to much effort into trying to make me look like an idiot. if you actually talked to me, you would find that i would bring valid opinions to the table. It seems like however, that you wouldnt have anything to really say, since you'd rather focus on my lack of typing skills instead of my opinion. ( i do have a fine motor skills disorder. not dyslexia, i can read fine, but it effects my skills in printing and typing work). Wow honey, I meant the whole thing as a joke - seriously, I can't remember the last time I actually said "preposition". I was just trying to show how ridiculous it makes a person look if they pick apart someone's post and make them feel like an idiot. You can type and speak however you wish, I don't really care. I am not going to assume you are an idiot based on either of those things; intelligence is in the mind, not in the superficial things. You're opinions are valid just like anyone else's - whether people agree with them or not.

The act of causing anger, resentment, displeasure, or affront. The state of being offended. i don't think what you described necessarily encapsulates all homophobes.. some people just react with fear when confronted with something they don't understand. most everyone is like that to some degree.

when i wear a pullover hoodie with the hood up i feel trapped but when i have a zip up hoodie and the hood is up i feel less ensnared <--(i used a thesaurus for that word). my final argument tho... zippers look cool. especially if they are silver and shiny...
