Re: Which Canadian city do you think is the most gay friendly?
said by Mats  :said by EveryName : In Vancouver, its kind of like everyone makes a huge effort to be accepting. Everyone?? You need to get out more instead of hanging out with your gay friends on Robson street. You are more tolerated than accepted. Venture out beyond your safe zone and see how accepted you are. You completely misunderstood me. In Vancouver the supporters of the gay community (which does not include everyone - obviously) seem to have be straining to make an effort, as if they have to. It doesn't seem natural. An example would be a bunch of people who supported hockey, and the Canucks, but had zero interest in the game.
Whereas in Montreal, the acceptance, or tolerance for that matter, seems to come naturally and is without persuasion. Montreal hockey fans are hockey fans. Point final calisse.
PS. Thanks for pointing out how homophobic you are. Educate yourself before you judge. We all have different desires, and should not be judged for them, no matter what they are. We all deserve the same respect, no matter what race, religion, gender, ethnicity, or sexual preference we have. Please don't post in my thread, if you are going to say stuff like that again. And i'm asking you respectfully. |

I was interested to see how this thread got to 3 pages.
Disappointed that I wasted time reading 2 pages of PM's! |

said by EveryName :Educate yourself before you judge. We all have different desires, and should not be judged for them, no matter what they are. Sounds like you are the one who needs to educate yourself. People are judged every day for how they are.

Don't post in your thread just because I dont agree with your opinion? You shouldn't post if you cant handle the responses no matter what they are. You made a blanket statement about Vancouver and I gave you my opinion about it. |

Speaking of being tolerated... where in the Lower Mainland do you live..wait don't tell me...  
Oh & btw, I think you meant Davie Street; Robson Street is very similar to LA's Beverly Hills. |

And once again CanChat goes merrily skipping off down an irrelevant and extraneous side argument about semantics.  
It's as predictable as the sun rising in the morning.
Sometimes this place can be so entertaining.
