You two wanna lay off!!! You both should have read the thread a little more closely before you decided I was a fuckin' hung up homophobe. The whole point of me placing the thread was to generate debate, not to go on some attack about people's sexuality, you have simply focused on the fact I had the cheek to question such behaviour. It could have maybe been written to encompass all our sections of society by explaining the night but the fact was I was treated to a group of lads sex life was the point. Maybe if I had been a little more subtle and explained what the lads had discussed and allowed you to make up your own mind about their sexuality would have maybe been a little more sensitive. But you have both decided that I have not got a right to ask what you thought, after all the thread was titled with a question mark! This is getting close to something of a witch hunt where you'll be calling for the homogeneral to shoot me down in a ball of fire to eternal damnation. What are you trying to do bully me off the forum? Or maybe just call for the paedogeneral, he's sure to find me guilty of homophobic behaviour too, or just a paedophile and have done with it.
exscuse me, but i never once accused you of being a homophobe. I suggest that YOU go back and reread your thread. and in the meantime, calm the fuck down.
errrrrrrm no. I haven't personally attacked you or whatever. To be honest, the wordings of your other thread were bound to cause a little controversy.
they are spelling emo wrong. they spelled it 'emu', which is a bird. emo is a stereotypical person, but yeah, i chose emo bc i have no idea what a chav is. what is a chav, bytheway?
you need to start taking some responsibility, for the things you say, over welmingly on the other thread, most of the replies stated that they thought your original post was homophobic, now instead of reflecting on that you have diecided to play the victim. the fact is no one has victismed you in anyway, ok you have been teased a bit by references to the other thread being made in here, but that is has far has it goes. I repeat no boby has attacked you ethier in this thread or the '?' and to be honest if you had posted that thread in another area you would have got a lot harsher reactions. you are entitled to write more or less what you want on the hip forums and in turn we are entitled to respond and say what we think about what you have written. if you feel we are being harsh on you, then you really need to put more care into what you have written. how many people critised you on that thread, at least ten did, now are they all in the wrong and you in the right? also if you feel you have been victismed then make a complaint, I feel confident that myself and no one else has victimised you, but you are within your rights to do this. I think it would have been nice if you could have put yourself in someone elses shoes and considered how a gay man might of felt reading your thread, instead you have diecided that you are being victimised, it make one wonder that if you think this wether you have any idea about what being victimised is all about S
They really do. I live near Cambridge, and the one thing, above all others I used to love about the place was the almost complete absence of knobhead, gobshite kids... Thankfully, there aren't many of them, and it's still (for the most part) a lovely jubbly place. In fact, I might just have to go shopping next week....and for a glass of bubbly in the lovely Mimosa.
This is a popular misconception. Just because one has a comfortable lifestyle, and a nice voice, does not automatically make them a 'toff'. I know plenty of well-spoken, well-educated people that are not flashy, or show-offs in any way at all. And there are many, many working class people in Cambridge; I guess you have never heard of Arbury? It's a hole; the arse end of Cambridge, if you will. It is ones behaviour and attitude that makes them a 'toff' or not; not the way they live, or the way they speak. I should know; I'm well-spoken, articulate and not what you'd call poor, but I'm so relaxed I'm almost horizontal... And the notion of eating in Brown's every night, just because you can, is a thought I find vulgar in the extreme. To me, those that are brash with their money, or feel they are superior to others in some way are what I'd call 'toffs'. And all classes have those kinds of people, not just the middle and upper ones.
I don't mean yobs, I mean chavs who are at the university. The fashion, the music, the inflections, they're all chav-like, but they're nevertheless pretty intelligent people. To some degree it's a cultural thing, rather than simply an economic or intelligence based trend. Where abouts do you live? Do you ever go to Strawberry Fair? If you're about this year, I'll come and say hi.
That's what I was getting at... sounds like people of Cambridge, not because of the money, but because it's Cambridge. It's like Bath...people think they're better than you because it's Bath. My friend is extremely loaded, yet you would never tell if you met her, she's the most down-to-earth chica ever and yet her family has millions and I'm not even overexaggerating. I love Devon
And zero g's right, we're not all toffs at Cambridge! About 50% of my college are public school, the other half, like myself, state school educated. At King's it's about 70% state school. Of course this is still disproportional to the number of state school students in the wider population, but that's a problem for the school system, not the university....
Oh it's not like that here at all. We don't think we're better. We know we are :jester: Now kiss my 5000+ post ass! J/K!!!
