Wow, this is quite sad.

It's even sadder some people here (fortunately not many) defend Microsoft on this one, and even calling gay sexuality sick and perverted. Time for a permaban, mister Baggins?

(Mod Edit) - In regards to the red part which I've crossed out: After reviewing this thread I cannot find anywhere that Baggins said this.  There were things said that were inflammatory but that doesn't give you the right to modify or invent other things and claim that they were what was actually said.  In the future please quote the individual so that there is a precise record of the comment for reference in your post.  -Sqrl

 

Actually sqrl, there is no modification needed and what was stated is fine.

Gay and Lesbian sexuality is pretty much the same thing. Only major difference is gender involved. Pretty much calling lesbianism wrong also spits in the face of the male population that is happy being gay. If you look at the definition of homosexuality it covered couples of a same sex and doesnt single out male or females as both lesbian and gay tendancies are both filed under homosexuality.

So in a nut shell, gay = lesbian = homosexuality.

 

Anyways, what Microsoft is doing period is highly discriminatory. Most services provide a spot for preference allowing for straight, gay, lesbian, bi, bi-curious. An XBL profile is nothing different then a myspace, facebook, PSN, facethejury, etc profile making it so that if a person decides to post their preference, even if there is no field provided and they just do it in an "about me" section, it is perfectly a-ok to do so. If one is banned for publicly stating their preference there are some massive legal issues when you look at discrimination laws in the USA and many countries around the world. Microsoft is putting themselves in hole that they wont get out of if someone actually pushes this subject.
