By fabulous, I mean gay people who are super eccentric. The type who are all into fashion, hair, and design and who will tell any woman she looks "fabulous". They call people by names like "sweetie", "hun", and "crazy biyotch" or some stupid crap. They're sassy, flirty, and loud. Guys who wear crazy outfits and spend more time on their appearance than a beauty queen. The overly "green", politically "correct"... They just get on my nerves.
I'm bi, I have gay friends and gay members of my family. I don't mind them. It's just the ones on TV (like Carson from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and Jack McFarlin from Will and Grace) and the ones who try to copy those types. I see so much of this "fabulousness" on TV that it drives me crazy. Being gay doesn't mean loading up on the pink and being loud while waving your martini's.
There are gay members of the community desperately trying to break this stereotypical behavior and they do nothing but promote it.
Am I the only one that is tired of this? I know me and my gay friends are.
**also, as a side note: I hate women who do this too**

There are people that hate every type of person on TV, if we decided to get rid of them, there would probably be no media.
Just because you don't like to act that way, that doesn't mean other homosexuals don't. Who are you to say "That way of being gay is wrong, so you should stop it", it would be partially the same as a straight man going "That way of being a man is wrong, so stop being gay".
Nobody is forcing you or telling you to be something, so you shouldn't do the same.
It's the same with those who are naturally violent and want confrontation all the time. Their "being themselves" isn't an appropriate way to act.
Once again, there is a difference between the two examples you are saying. You are saying that acting a certain way that doesn't involve a victim or a victimizer is the same as a situation that involved the victim and the victimizer. As for the nudist thing, they are definetly the minority of people, and they have respect for others and do their nudist acts in areas where they are allowed or areas of their own privacy where nobody can see them. There is a difference between life styles that make you act a certain way that doesn't expose nudity, and a life style that involves exposing yourself in areas not allowed.
Your example of the boss is just terrible aswell. You are comparing an asshole boss to a man that acts a certain way and could be a nice person, there is no accurate comparison.
No, it isn't the same, and if you think so then I have no idea what logic you follow by. Like I said, there is a difference between being yourself that involves the victim and the victimizer, and being yourself that doesn't involve those things.
I can't help but notice your "right, right?" after a few sentences as if you think you're cornering me. You haven't been here long, so I think I should tell you that when it comes to debates, you simply won't win against me, I have a reputation for being a good debater on this site, as vain as that may make me seem. Just thought you should know, because I think I know what direction this is going to go.
