I agree too many small minded people out their

Why do people feel the need to attack people over their Race sexuality Gender I have no Idea

But if people got the grips with the fact that people who are of a different race sexuality gender are the same as anyone else then there would be No Need for PC laws in the first place

Racists Homophobes and sexists have all helped create this over PC culture in the first place and yet now they are restricted from airing their bias views they moan and complain

Until society at large becomes more tolerant of others PC will be here to stay and the more people rebell against PC the more PC the country and its laws become

No you didn`t mention his sexuality and that didn`t mean you were being anti gay

The reason you got pulled up by some was because back in the 1950s and before that Gay people were treated as perverts in the same league as rapists are today

They were sent to prison for being gay thats why some people pulled you up over your coments because it could have seemed you were being anti gay by branding a gay person a pervert

Though I don`t blame you for what you said because you didn`t call him a gay pervert or anything so I personally wouldn`t say you were being homophobic at all

You can criticize a persons personality and behaviour without mentioning their colour, sexual preference or disability, unfortunately a lot of people on this board are unable to recognise that.

gay people disabled people, black people and transexuals are examples of minorities in society, using their differences as a target for ridicule is a form of discrimination, what part of that do you not understand?

but i only called mario a pervert and i got called a homophobic by 2 people.

Yeah, but I think Makosi is a bitch.. I don't think it because she is black, I think it because she is in fact a bitch.
That cannot be deemed as racist can it?

Good point. Because apparently it's OK to discriminate against people if they choose to be that way, hang on a minute, being gay is a choice isn't it?

Being gay isn't a choice. :S

Its how you were born.

People aren't born fat. And can change it by diet and exercise

I guess you could argue that a gay person could be with someone of the opposite sex if pushed to do so, but why should they?

if you think she's a bitch then call her a bitch, absolutely fine. Call her a black bitch and you've crossed the line.

(I am just making a point, that was not an intentional racist slur)

No.

But if you said 'makosi is a black bitch' rather than 'makosi is a bitch' it looks bad, and thats why it can be percieved as racism. Not that you WOULD do that, just an example

God no! I would never call anybody that! I do think polotical correctness has gone too far but I would say calling somebody a "black bitch" racist.

I didnt think you would do that anyway.

I'm just trying to show the difference.

I dont see how anyone could say saying makosi was a bitch was racist, unless there was a reference to her color in the statement.

Same as noone could say calling Brian a dickhead is homophobic, unless they make some reference to his sexuality at the same time.

This is where many people go wrong.

and i remember somebody else called mario a sex pest and there was about 5 different people on there back calling them homophobic which is out of order.

Going by the mentality i've seen on these forums the past few months, I would put money on a lot of the posts in such a thread were based on his sexuality which makes it discrimination, which makes it wrong.

I've not heard anything as ridiculous since they were saying on DS that Dave should be charged with sexual assault for giving Sam a titty twister.

Didn't you know, calling Mario a sex pest is homophobic but if you had called Coolio a sex pest you would be racist. LOL.

I remember I was here when Brian Belo won and I said that he was "The first black BB winner" and I was called 'racist' by like 4 people who acknowledging his race.

[Melanie20]

It's a lot of rubbish to say you can only criticise 'white hetrosexual men'. I remember when Pete was in the house you weren't allowed to criticize him at all because 'he's got Tourettes you know' I was always like: 'So?' When Steve the disabled guy in this BB got criticised in the beginning of BB11 people would jump down your throat if you said anything about him because: 'he's a war hero, you know' it was only in the end of BB when people realised he was a boring fart that the we cried 'havoc' and 'let loose the dogs of war'.
