Watching Ken probably gave him a boner...
To be honest, I used to work with a guy in Nashville that also played on our coed softball team. Great guy! One day we had had a dress down Friday jersey day; and he wore a Rams Kurt Warner Rams jersey. So I said what's up with that? He said, "it's simple - he's gorgeous. I hope that doesn't make you uncomfortable." Even though it caught me off guard for a split second - "I told him a good person is a good person; and a good friend is a good friend. You're both!" I never wasted time explaining I was raised old school where this was considered different and wrong all the way into Catholic/Christian beliefs. On the other hand, we're not supposed to judge others. What? We judge others? We only do that with Woody; because he makes it fun to bust his chops.
Before that, my cousin that went to war (3 tours) for this country hated anyone that was gay all the way up until his younger sister dropped the bomb and gave her family the news. He was always a very protective older brother to her (and he always acted like one to me and my brother). The good news is despite the surprise he never stopped being a protective older brother. She had more turbulence with her mom; and he was the one that helped them restore their relationship. Today, he has a terminal brain cancer and the person who has helped him the most since his diagnosis and drastic life change is his sister's spouse (also gay obviously). Funny how life can throw us these kind of curve balls when societal trends had us well trained to hate something we are/were never willing to see the bigger picture with until a friend or family member catches us off guard.
Before my cousin came out, her and her older brother set me up on a blind date I wasn't aware of until I had extra hot chicken wing sauce on my face and fingers on 10 cents-a-wing and quarter drafts night. All of a sudden, my cousin Billy breaks out the "hey cuddin try not to get too rat faced because my sister is bringing a friend from work (that she also plays softball with) that she really wants you meet." That person is now my wife and we just had our 30th Anniversary in February. This night took place about 5-10 years before she let her family and friends know what her sexual preference is. It never changed who she is or how we feel about her. Not only that, she dated guys in her class that played football and other sports so she tried to resist how her sexual preferences were wired. I don't think this is something that can be changed no matter how little support/mercy society gives others in her shoes. If this was something easy to change - my guess is there would be a lot less suicides and hate crimes over it in this country.

Yeah.. I personally don't care what orientation folks are.. I have Gay and Trans members in our extended family.. Friends as well.... While it's not my lifestyle.. I respect their choice.. Where I draw the line is when they start forcing this on minors and grooming them. There's a time in life to choose your path.. My one nephew just came out as Trans.. I'm not surprised because.. Well his mother is a nut job.. And I always suspected something was off about him.. His father(My Stepbrother) is not the sharpest knife in the drawer either... Has a felonius and drug induced past.. I also draw the line on having to be reminded on every social outlet and media platform they are queer/gay whatever.. Fine.. Go live your life.. I don't care.. I have my own shit to deal with.. There's room for everybody.. That said.. Congratulation on your 30 years of committment.. That is definitely something worth celebrating... Not many like my Trans nephew make it past a year.. He was married to this gorgeous girl.. My guess is she helped feminize him... She looked like the Gothic dominant type who probably dominated him.. Having dipshits for parents didn't help him any either.. All I can do is pray for him and hope for the best for him and his life.. Hes a good person.....

whats funny about this thread
1) i seriously doubt woody even saw this movie
2) you all been trolled. bwahhhhhh
-
I absolutely saw this movie
But the path this thread took was not what I was expecting.
Actually, landing on "they're grooming the children!" was probably foreseeable
I've tried to be fair with you and have a discussion but you'll have none of it. So why keep whining about it?
I don't personally think that grooming children had anything to do with it.

The path this thread took or you took?
You sign up for stuff; and then you act surprised at the responses/outcomes you receive.
Of course you're gonna get your balls busted about wasting 2 hours of your life watching a movie about a Barbie Doll and announcing it was great.
When you go to a sports message board that caters to the major sports teams in the area/state where you allegedly live; and then break out the Fah-Q Ohio State after your out of state team finally doesn't need a Heimlich Maneuver in the big game - you get what you order here. If you wanted congrats and cyber fanny pats, my guess is alienating yourself with the Fuck You Ohio State removed any/all opportunities to get that. My best friend is a Michigan fan and I had no problem saying Congrats to him because he never used to dish out the ball busting a few decades ago when Buckeyes fans were getting John Coopered. He never did that. What I'm getting at here is golden rule. You're never gonna re-wire where someone comes from and/or what they've grown up passionate about. You have 2 choices - respect that or challenge it like you do frequently.
All that said, we're on a message and busting chops is fun. When I was a kid, I had a GI Joe or 2 or 3. When you were a kid, you had a Barbie doll and a Ken. And that's okay. Hang in there man...

you seem to have put in a lot of research there nickers.
I haven't seen you guys talking to each other in a while. I hope you guys have at least been sending post cards to one another.
If I ever wrote the re-do/sequel to The Parent Trap - You and Nicks are gonna star as the long lost twins that met at a football camp. BTW, some of the funniest pranks I've ever seen took place at football camps.

You got me good the other day Diehard. You do that better than anyone to me when we're on different sides of a debate; and you nail me with something you know I can only laugh my ass off with at my expense.
