Amy.

I was afraid, and at that moment I felt small, like... like I had lacked experience; like I'd never be on her level; like I'd never be enough for her, or something like that. You know what I'm saying?

A short clip from "Chasing Amy"I have a big problem with faggots; not gays, but faggots. I hate to make that sort of distinction, but it's there.

I’ve come under intense scrutiny for the way I chose to write my post. Apparently, attacks of the personal nature seem to be wrong

[jwilman]

quite frankly, i think a poster of that nature is refreshing. given how many posters and advertisments in general blatantly use heterosexual sex as a selling point for their message, i find that to be a breath of fresh air.

considering that you claim this poster is attempting to "shove it down your throat" that gay people are "here" or "oppressed", if you were gay, would you also not be as angered with the greater number of posters that "shove" heterosexuality down your throat? you don't want to deal with a poster or two that sells homosexuality to you? i don't want to deal with a poster or two million that sells heterosexuality to me.

believe me, on this issue, it's the gays that are getting the short end of the stick.also, despite your redefinition of "faggot" as a "flaming homosexual", it is still a very offensive and derogatory term. even if i were to change the meaning of "nigger" or something similiar to meet my own definition, it would still retain it's original value. regardless of that intent, your flagrant (dare i say

Fuck the rest of that shit, we could all go on for days and days about it... I just want to know how the hell that post relates to Chasing Amy (which is, by the way, the worst Kevin Smith movie ever made. ever).

Also, I wasn't able to get that file to open, so if that unlocked the hidden message that made it all make sense I'm sorry. But remembering what I can of the movie from the time I've seen it, there isn't really a connection there. Whatever.

Well, I realized the irony of relating my idea to Chasing Amy afterward. Yes, it is a terrible movie, but it is about a lesbian who isn't really a lesbian... why? Because she suddenly decides to be straight to get with Ben Afleck. Now, if she isn't a faggot, I don't know who else is.

But the original connection I made to Chasing Amy was actually the idea of being afraid of not what I don't understand, but what I do understand... sometimes we all find out things that we don't really want to hear.

Sometimes I just feel like I see the bigger picture... and some people are just too busy being wrapped up with pins, buttons, and flamingly gay lifestyles.

Anyway, the sound clip you couldn't open was Kevin Smith explaing what it means to be "Chasing Amy." Essentially, Amy gets told off because anger is a great way of dealing with something you're not prepared to deal with it.

This is exactly what you're looking for. Wear it proud, my man.

While I do find the T-shirts amusing, it wasn't what I was getting at. Gay pride isn't a bad thing.

Yeah, I know. But everyone else had argued it to death and the tension was rising, so I thought I'd pull away from arguing about it :P
