Exactly. It's prejudice plain and simple. I love the way they use a superstition as a excuse because that's the modern day equivalent as the right to do whatever the fuck you want. It then also means no one can really say fuck all.

The difference is that they didn't have a problem with the gay couple staying at their B&B, they just didn't want them sharing a room due to their religious beliefs. It wouldn't bother me in the slightest, but surely other people have a right to their own beliefs and not have other's beliefs forced upon them? Though given their beliefs maybe running a B&B isn't their best career choice.
I'm no homophobe. Years ago when I was contracting I stayed in B&Bs during the week for a couple of years, the best one I ever stayed in (in fact the best B&B ever) was run by a gay couple. If they'd told me they didn't want me and my girlfriend staying there it wouldn't have bothered me, I'd have just respected their right to choose.
Jonny - I really do enjoy reading most of your posts. You're one of the people on here who I think make the forum a more interesting place. But that last comment has a whiff of complete bollocks about it.

Not only should they be forced to let the gays in they should be made to sleep with them as punishment

That's a bit harsh on the poor gays.
Maybe just send them on some sort of gay course which brings out some of their inner gay.

No, justice is justice. And the gays should get to choose any "accessories" they deem fit

Why would a gay couple want to stay in a B&B anyway ? Surely they could have found a camp site.

It all depends. If they were a couple of mincing queens, wearing satin hotpants and string-vest teeshirts, with pierced nipples, tonguing each other in reception, a lot of folks might tell them to do one.

I am sure George Michael appreciates your sentiments. I don't understand gays, all I know is that suicide is sometimes an outcome for those who reach the conclusion that they are gay, so I don't think it is matter of choice. So where does that leave the discussion. If you discriminate against gays, skin colour, weight, religion and so on,, it's discrimination, with the exception that if you discriminate against an Oxford United supporter then that's legitimate.

That's not the same. Supporting the scum is definitely a lifestyle choice.

Turning away groups of lads because things like stag doss and stuff tend to be a fair bit of trouble is a big world away from banning a group of people because of their sexuality.
Spot on. Jonny72 making an ignorant tit of himself, as per usual. Can we turn you away from the TEF on account of you being a retard?

I'm with the B&B owners on this one.
yeah, i agree. the thought of 2 men thrusting, probing, licking every inch of each other's quivering bodies. their muscular frames glistening with sweat as they come together in a jizz fountain of ecstacy is enough to make anyone feel a bit queasy.
