Male erotica in the LGBT group: Why now? What's changed? [View all] Duncan Grant May 2012 OP

I don't think such threads should DOMINATE the group but closeupready May 2012 #1

This isn't unreasonable. Duncan Grant May 2012 #8

Sigh... WillParkinson May 2012 #2

Please don't stop....Its nice to take a breather from the bitching, arguing and nitpicking that one Rowdyboy May 2012 #14

Keep Posting Just As You Have Been..... queerart May 2012 #18

I have no right to ask you to stop. Duncan Grant May 2012 #19

From the LGBT Hosts I have talked to so far including myself William769 May 2012 #3

Discussion is not friction. Duncan Grant May 2012 #20

I don't believe that William said that he spoke TriMera May 2012 #21

Oh, dear. More host defensiveness. Duncan Grant May 2012 #24

If you have a problem with me being a LGBT Host, ask the LGBT members for my removal William769 May 2012 #25

You Are A Splendid Host.... queerart May 2012 #26

You're totally stuck with being a Host as far as I'm concerned. Zorra May 2012 #34

You're too short for that gesture. Besides, it went out with Mrs. Fiske. (nt) Duncan Grant May 2012 #47

It seems to me your next move should be toward television. Smarmie Doofus May 2012 #87

Count one more vote in your corner....You have been an excellent host among a really fine group.... Rowdyboy May 2012 #56

Why do you feel that the pictures diminish the group's credibility? Jamastiene May 2012 #4

This group could be "all photos, all the time" if that's the group consensus. Duncan Grant May 2012 #23

You can find the vision/function of the group in the SOP and the SOP thread pinned to the top Fearless May 2012 #27

Yes, I'm aware of the pinned thread. Duncan Grant May 2012 #35

Could you provide a link? Fearless May 2012 #37

The point has been made, I don't think it will add anything to the discussion. (nt) Duncan Grant May 2012 #48

Fair enough... Fearless May 2012 #77

OK, excuse me? WillParkinson May 2012 #30

Please don't be defensive. Duncan Grant May 2012 #36

There have only been a few pictures threads. Jamastiene May 2012 #33

sorry dude -- male erotica doesn't diminish us. xchrom May 2012 #5

If anything more L and T light erotica.... Evasporque May 2012 #6

I wholeheartedly agree HillWilliam May 2012 #74

HOT WET FIREMEN GOING AT IT!! Evasporque May 2012 #7

As long as there is a NSFW tag in the title of the post, I'm OK with it. racaulk May 2012 #9

Good to hear from you on this topic! Duncan Grant May 2012 #49

Hmmmm libodem May 2012 #10

You do, indeed. If anyone knows a hot man when they see one, closeupready May 2012 #11

I don't mind them mitchtv May 2012 #12

"few enough participants here as it is" Duncan Grant May 2012 #50

It seems to me that... Fearless May 2012 #13

Sorry but I have to disagree.....they are few in number and hardly qualify as "male erotica" Rowdyboy May 2012 #15

May I ask you a question with all due respect? Call Me Wesley May 2012 #16

There's a great discussion about this idea further down thread. Duncan Grant May 2012 #53

I basically agree. Smarmie Doofus May 2012 #17

Thanks for checking in. Duncan Grant May 2012 #54

Thank you for raising the question. Ms. Toad May 2012 #22

Thank you for adding so much to the discussion. Duncan Grant May 2012 #58

I think that I am probably the only host who agrees with you, Duncan. yardwork May 2012 #28

No... WillParkinson May 2012 #31

You've got 3 people disagreeing with you and dozens in agreement, including all the other hosts. yardwork May 2012 #32

Thanks, you've likely stuck a "kick me" sign on your back for saying so. :) Duncan Grant May 2012 #61

+ 1. Yardie, I feel conflicted with regard to this issue also. Zorra May 2012 #78

Your not alone FreeState May 2012 #88

I enjoy the pictures and don't think they diminish our group at all. beyurslf May 2012 #29

This Thread.... queerart May 2012 #38

It is a legitimate question Ms. Toad May 2012 #39

It is our space, we can do what we want in it..... queerart May 2012 #41

I have no idea what you are talking about, or why you are so angry Ms. Toad May 2012 #44

I was appalled to read the hidden post. Duncan Grant May 2012 #64

I am appalled at the hidden post, Ms. Toad obamanut2012 May 2012 #80

Why are you being so hostile to Ms. Toad??? obamanut2012 May 2012 #79

This is exactly it. Duncan Grant May 2012 #63

I heartily doubt that it's the HillWilliam May 2012 #75

Not exclusively, Ms. Toad May 2012 #85

Well, it's one of the reasons I rarely visit anymore theHandpuppet May 2012 #110

Thank you for posting. Duncan Grant May 2012 #120

I don't see a problem HillWilliam May 2012 #40

Thank you for illustrating my point Ms. Toad May 2012 #43

Do you not see gay/bi men as part of "our culture?" Behind the Aegis May 2012 #51

I have to give you a two part answer Ms. Toad May 2012 #57

Your answers weren't at all clear. Behind the Aegis May 2012 #60

I am not looking for a problem that doesn't exist. Ms. Toad May 2012 #66

Maybe, maybe not. Behind the Aegis May 2012 #67

I'm not baiting Ms. Toad May 2012 #70

We will have to disagree on your subject line. Behind the Aegis May 2012 #71

For what it's worth, your post was perfectly clear to me. Duncan Grant May 2012 #65

I'm female and have no problem if they guys want to post a picture thread. Jamastiene May 2012 #82

Not necessarily, dear HillWilliam May 2012 #73

The place of nude and semi-clothed depictions of people Ms. Toad May 2012 #81

I get the question about cred Capt. Obvious May 2012 #42

I'm actually less concerned about how it looks to outsiders Ms. Toad May 2012 #46

Personally, I think you are making a mountain out of a molehill. Behind the Aegis May 2012 #52

+1 Rowdyboy May 2012 #55

The question was raised by someone else. Ms. Toad May 2012 #59

As I said, you are still in Molehill Country. Behind the Aegis May 2012 #62

I guess what I find troubling is that a lot of the overreaction and offense was directed at me. Ms. Toad May 2012 #68

Who let the dogs out?! ME! ME! ME! Behind the Aegis May 2012 #69

Glad the dogs got out - Ms. Toad May 2012 #84

You have said this 2 times. Puglover May 2012 #86

One of the challenges LGBT groups often face Ms. Toad May 2012 #90

I was going to stay out of this thread but you have made me change my mind. William769 May 2012 #91

I did not say or imply it was unsafe. Ms. Toad May 2012 #92

If WillParkinson's bare chested men draw such condemnation, imagine posting pics from Pride! Rowdyboy May 2012 #89

It was a NSFW thread. Duncan Grant May 2012 #98

This is what I don't understand William769 May 2012 #99

I don't have to prove you wrong to have an honest discussion. Duncan Grant May 2012 #101

And I quote, William769 May 2012 #103

In other words, this discussion is all lies. Is the thread all lies, too? Duncan Grant May 2012 #106

Once again show where this group is headed in that direction. William769 May 2012 #107

This message was self-deleted by its author Call Me Wesley May 2012 #102

So, we're going to kill the messenger now? I've been waiting for this. Duncan Grant May 2012 #105

And I see absolutely no harm in one being posted now and again....As I have repeatedly said in this Rowdyboy May 2012 #114

As a straight supporter, I dont understand the OP stevenleser May 2012 #83

to me the issue is where is the female erotica? La Lioness Priyanka May 2012 #93

Right on! Vanje May 2012 #94

Nice pics. William769 May 2012 #95

Last year while in Merida Mexico we bought a Kahlo reproduction.... Rowdyboy May 2012 #113

That's a very good question. But who are the "outsiders"? Duncan Grant May 2012 #96

i totally understand not wanting this group to devolve into a gay.com forum La Lioness Priyanka May 2012 #97

Thanks, I appreciate that. Duncan Grant May 2012 #100

STOP FUCKING PUSHING THIS TO THE TOP OF THE LIST MNBrewer May 2012 #112

Let the race to the bottom begin (no pun intended). Duncan Grant May 2012 #118

can i ask you what is making you so upset about this? La Lioness Priyanka May 2012 #123

I've been holding on to this HillWilliam May 2012 #115

Its hard to see how much else needs to be said....you've encapsulated my feelings far better than Rowdyboy May 2012 #116

I would invite anyone to read my journal if they're interested in what I like to post. Duncan Grant May 2012 #117

No, the problem... WillParkinson May 2012 #121

OK, I've had enough.... WillParkinson May 2012 #119

For what it's worth... Zorra May 2012 #124

This and WillParkinson's 119 are some of the best DU posts I have ever seen. stevenleser May 2012 #125

And people like you and Will and Jamestine and Bill and dsc are why this group works so well..... Rowdyboy May 2012 #126

Thank you for your thoughtful response. Ms. Toad May 2012 #127

But why does it make you feel uncomfortable? Prism May 2012 #130

My concern over this was not the pictures, but the response to the OP from this group. yardwork May 2012 #132

Yardwork, please dont go, I dont say it often (ever?) but I enjoy and respect your posts. stevenleser May 2012 #133

I think of this group like a neighborhood gay bar with friends. Prism May 2012 #128

Hmmm, I agree with everything except the surprise at the reaction. stevenleser May 2012 #129

Hmm, I do see your point Prism May 2012 #131

This thread has run its course. Jamastiene May 2012 #134
