How Would You Feel About A Gay Player In The Dressing Room?
Discussion
JQ said:
OP - you say you're undecided on the subject, why? Why do you think anyone would have an issue?
Well...for starters the religious are going to have a serious problem I suspect...as will the homophobic...as will a few ordinary hetero blokes. Yes the majority won't but I'm not sure the majority have an argument.Because some don't care about sharing a shower with a gay guy doesn't mean that everybody else has to accept that.
And I can't see a logical case for insisting that straight guys must share a changing room with gay guys.
I suspect that a court case will follow to sort this at some point in the future.
On the one hand you have gay rights and on the other you have the right to privacy from someone who potentially could be getting (discreetly) excited by sharing your shower.
BTW this thread is really just a thought exercise in trying to see whose rights will take precedence. I don't share showers with blokes anymore as my playing days are over so its not an actual issue for me.

I'd be more worried about somebody spelling 'you' as 'u'.
Jeez....Try fitting the sentence into the subject line using the word You instead of a U...let me know how far you get....

Most posters here seem to have (deliberately?) missed the point of the OPs post.
Another question that may shed some light on it for the OP: why are there separate changing rooms for men and women in leisure centres, gyms etc?
Well thats the nub of the question...whatever the reason is for that male/female seperation is also likely a logical reason for a gay/straight seperation within the same sex changing room, no?Another question that may shed some light on it for the OP: why are there separate changing rooms for men and women in leisure centres, gyms etc?
If you walked into your local gym changing room and were confronted by (say) 6 gay guys laughing and joking about would you continue in and get showered? If you would, would you expect to be able to insist that all straight guys do similar?
Like I say, thought exercise.

How would you know they were gay? If you walked into your local gym changing room and were confronted by (say) 6 gay guys laughing and joking about would you continue in and get showered? If you would, would you expect to be able to insist that all straight guys do similar?
