It's a nice step, but seems weird that they kick people out when they turn 18. I guess leap day babies will still get a chance to stay in as adults.

Also, I think they should include atheist. Character is important, but has nothing to do with religion.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Good news everyone! Gay members now allowed in the Boy Scouts of America.

It's about time. I'm glad they finally took the step in the right direction.

Just the scout leaders to go

Oh. well damn. I guess I assumed you meant leader when you said members. That's frustrating. I really hate the stigma that it not allowing scout leaders to be openly gay insinuates....

No, sadly just the kids. Still though, it gives them protection which is pretty important. The leaders ban is really bad, but I doubt they can keep it for much longer.

I remember Train and Carly Rae Jepson dropped out of a tour for the Boy Scouts because of their stance on homosexual, so I think this is a step in the right direction...although to be honest, most gay men would probably not cared to see either or them perform. :p

I just looked that up, apparently Train will come back if they change their position. The BSA must be huge fans to fast track the change in time :)

I'm actually a bit surprised to see Spain so low on there. I guess I am wrong for assuming that they are either still prodominately Catholic/that the Catholics are opposed to homosexuality. 


Spain, despite being a country of so many bad things, is a pretty open-minded place. Religion doesn't move people into hate here. Yes, there's catholicism here, but people's respectful. (Most of the time, and in most places, of course this is not 100% the case.)

By the way...I totally forgot about this thread.

 

There's a user in VGChartz who's living hell right now because of his sexual orientation. I'm not going to say who, because I was the only one trusted with this information, and until he's ready to tell us, I'll wait.

 

I just want to say that, if you are reading this, we are here to help. Don't feel bad, and don't let the pressure of those surrounding you crush you in depression.

 

Be happy with who you are. Don't let anybody to make you unhappy because of what you are, and what you like.

Maybe he can make another account and come and talk? I'm sure everyone here understands and would like to help.

I never understood why people bother themselves about other's sexuality, what does it matter to you?

"No dude, you should not love your loved ones!" 
"Why?"

"I dunno"

its like telling someone why they have their skin color.

this actually amuses me considering those scout camps have more homo stuff going on than a pride parade.



He doesn't row.

Jakobs. We know if you've got wood in your hand, you're happy.
