Gay Gamers

[L.S.D]

Their logo is a bit petrifying ... otherwise, I have no comment.

At the risk of sounding homophobic,

 

It's selfish of gay people to single themselves out just because of their sexual identity.

 

they can easily have just joined a site like this one to discuss games.

 

It's apparent that this site takes all comers.

Maybe they are scared that they might be ignored/chatised/make fun of if people know they are gay here.

WHich I don't think the people here would except for some individuals who like to call people "fag"

Well, believe it or not, there's an emulation site for Christians. If you can single out your audience, why not? As long as it works.

Everyone has to be asinine about their audiences after all

The irony is though that by isolating themselves from everyone else they are only enforcing the 'otherness' and pinning themselves up for further ridicule.

 

That logic of minorities that look for acceptance while singling themselves out from the mainstream makes no sense to me. And yes, I find it offensive on some levels as well.

I just find the name of their site hilarious. Something about the words gay and gamer go together.

Honestly, I thought they were using the old definition of "gay" at first which is just "happy" ... so "happy gamer".

 

Guess not.

That is exactly what I meant.
