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. |
Microsoft doesn't care if the person in question is a lesbian or not. The fact that they disobeyed the terms of service is quite obvious. It says not to put anything sexual into your profile. Which the person did. If I put that I am a doggystyle only hetero person, does that mean they discriminated against all like minded doggystyle only hetero people(just an example) if they ban me? No, it means I shouldn't put anything sexual on my profile.
