Straight white guy festival

This, along with the fact that after going on about desegregation, being included, etc, they now advocate a "black" festival? Does that not intentionally cause segregation? One should makes up one's mind.
We have, I think. Although some have yet to commit to any point of view.Moonhawk said:
(presumably such a carnival would consist of a parade of middle aged white blokes in beige cardigans and plaid slippers)
Each time a post like this comes along, someone mentions "middle aged or old white guys". Is that to insinuate there are no young whites guys anymore that are straight? It is like stating all young white men are naturally gay as if that was some evolutionary progression (beyong obviously being the darling of style lately)?Grumfutock said:

It was just a joke - I was trying to conjure up an image diametrically opposed to the bright, flamboyant costumes that adorn performers at the Notting Hill carnival.Its all missing the point anyway. There are plenty of straight white guy festivals, its just that they're not called that and anyone is welcome, they just tend to stay away. As a rule they tend to be called things like 'steam rally', 'airshow' (NB: not free/beach ones), 'classic car meet', 'motor cycle club' etc. so as to make sure they slip under the radar of the PC types.
For one/few days streets resemble culture of a different country that some here feel a connection with.
We get angry because we feel left out and forgotten, like we are still on the naughty step for things long past.
Don't realise that for the rest of the year its a white straight man festival everywhere.
No one dare admit that the white straight guy daily festival is boring.

Now, the Congressional Black Caucus, The Association of Black Chiefs of Police, and the Black Miss America Pageant does not allow non-blacks, no.
Which of those were you hoping to join/enter?It sounds like it has really upset you, being oppressed like that. If you set up a justgiving page I'll donate.

Missing a point.... Yes of course there is - just as I was unsure about yours - so we both failed to get
the point across!
White male culture.. As I thought, you might be positively discriminatory. For the record I do not agree that there is such a culture as the one you typify and deride for being exclusively white adult male. You might just also have entirely rather than partially missed the point about my earlier post. I was replying to the topic in the OP specifically, not the usual digression into Race that took the thread off-topic. It's about prejudiced homosexual lobbying against those of an alternative predisposition and the hypocrisy that demonstrates. Your sarcasm, I'm afraid, rather makes my point without the confusion I apparently included in my post!
The OP mentioned race. What prejudiced homosexual lobbying against those of an alternative predisposition have you seen?the point across!

Simple question; take those three examples of organizations I described, replace "Black" with "White" and tell me what would happen.
If I described those organizations to anyone but left out the color description, all the leftys would be up in arms. It is simple folks, are we going to do away with racism or not? One cannot do away with parts of it, it is all or nothing.

Are white people not allowed in?There would be stands on prostate care, motorbikes, diminishing hair lines, bicycles, how to deal with kids who won't leave home, sports cars etc. and there'd be lots of music, it just wouldn't be too loud...
I think it should be sponsored by Hooters, that should also take care of all the feminists

The poor white man's plight. He only survives on three cars. He isn't even allowed to enter the black beauty pageant. Text "WHITE" to 62444 and donate $5. Together we can make sure he doesn't have to face such glaring oppression.
You just don't get it do you? Expected really.WinstonWolf said:
