I don't think it was a stretch to see it as baiting at all...

Some of the background context and prior warnings are invisible to members. ;-)

I would say doing such activity at work is Totally Unsafe, and unethical. Unless you work at a Photo Studio. :-)
I clicked on the "Watch" combobox, but I don't see anything.

| i'm sure this will not be a popular sentiment but sometimes i wish we just used this site as a photography forum and not to air our opinions (you know what they say about opinions) sometimes i think any discussion not of a photographic technical/learning nature should be kept to PM's |

I am also stunned, a woman starts a thread calling someone pervert, few start with light hearted comments and ended up arguing with others. Wonderful world. |

I really do not understand your point, do you want to say that fotomann_forever, zxaar and yanko are involved in baiting others. (And i assume baiting is soemthing you are not doing by this post of yours). |

Homophobic...what an f'ed up word.
Why can't someone state that they don't want to see "gay" dating games or talk shows interviewing gay stars on "their first gay kiss". Why can't someone say they don't like those type shows without being labeled "homophobic".
I am not a very religous person and have a degree in biology with a minor in chemistry. I DO NOT believe that homosexuality is "chosen". I believe it is something some people and/or other animals are born with. The reason homosexuality exists is a mystery.
Don't tell me it must serve a purpose or homosexuality would have been "selected" against in the natural selection process. If there is a homosexuality gene...it is likely to be found that the trait is recessive. Therefore can be passed to a child with two seemingly "straight" parents.
I won't DARE to call it an abnormality for fear of being labeled a homophob and pounced upon.

What we reep is what we so, in all cases, i am sorry for the comment i said and i appologise if i offended anyone by saying it. Jimbo |
What a spectacularly homophobic rant. :( |
indeed. :( |

well ken, I agree its ok to say you don't want to see gay dating games, etc, and that doesn't make you homophobic. However, that's not what jimbo said. What jimbo said was "at least he's not taking photos of other guys" and other similar comments stating that, essentially, things could be worse, he could be a *gasp* gay activist! That's the homophobia. Hatred for/fear of people who are homosexual.
This thread is beyond its purpose and usefulness. I am locking it.
ETA: unlocked to allow a reply to my statements above. I invite anyone wishing to continue the discussion on homophobia to please create a new thread on this topic. Feel free to quote me there if desired.

| This thread is being moved to Rant, because it's hopelessly off topic and without much useful information. |
