It's been quite some time since I visited your country, which I very much enjoyed, particularly the North Country. I did have a bit of difficulty driving on "the wrong" side of those skinny winding roads though. I'm assuming you mean the Episcopal denomination? Here in the US, that institution has not fomented political trouble like the fundamentalist non-liturgical "churches" have. I recall that St. James (the Cathedral in Chicago) Church has long held a "byline": "Welcoming you as you are". More, they actually meant it.

I have no idea what you're ranting about. Breeding zone is a site that offers any number of subjects of interest to men who fuck other men, plus non-sexual subject matter that is of interest to many of us. More, most of us can manage to do that with some measure of common decency, if not good manners. If you mistook an earlier post, may I take this opportunity to apologize as directly as possible to you. Further, I encourage you to take advantage of the "blocking" function provided, so you'll be spared any text I might generate. Thank you.

You must be relatively young .... When some of us started fucking each other, using condoms was nothing more than a fetish a handful of guys practiced. EVERYONE fucked raw - there wasn't even a distinction between covered and uncovered. If a guy had sex at all, it was "natural", unobstructed, fill-the-hole sex. Of course, when hiv came along, all of that changed in one damn hurry. The pornstars started using condoms when everyone else did too. At the time, it was either cover it or almost certainly die a terrible death.

Of course. Bernie Sanders being the most vociferous that I've heard.

I haven't been able to discern that distinction. In the broadcast media*, I do see the banners asking the institutions to divest, etc, but I see more signs failing to make the distinction. As far as I know*, all of the institutions have replied in the negative. Most of the banners/signs the students display seem to be anti-Jewish, rather than anti-Israeli Government and their PM. If the focus of the protests were anti-Government, I doubt so many Jewish students would be so afraid to take part. I see the attacks/condemnations against Jewish students (or faculty, for that matter) as misplaced. That said ..... Thanks for your input. *I haven't watched tv as of yet today though ... I only watch Fox when there's a decent game on ... this new, "off-season" league isn't all that bad, though ... better than nothing!

We're seeing increasingly strident unrest at many Universities/Colleges throughout the country lately, and the issue has become urgent. What presents as anti-"Jewish" demonstrations, is - as I see it - misplaced anger. While the plight of the Palestinians is truly desperate and only getting worse by the day, and the perpetrators of that outrage are obviously guilty of inhumanity and worse, blaming "The Jews" is misplaced, reactionary, and poorly-thought-out - as I see it. The blame doesn't lie with "The Jews" - it lies with the Government of Israel, and particularly with a soulless and utterly corrupt Prime Minister, devoted only to saving his own political skin, which is a completely different issue. He has resisted calls for elections, invents every conceivable excuse for postponing them, because he knows his "war plan" to murder as many Palestinians as possible is a crime against humanity, and not supported by a clear majority of the voting public in Israel. The "eye-for-an-eye" equation of antiquity has morphed, in this depraved P.M.'s limited vision, into visiting that which The Jews suffered in the last century, upon the Palestinian population, a handful of which deserve punishment, with the vast majority of these people remaining innocent of the October attack. I don't have any issue with students everywhere protesting the actions of the Israeli Government, steeping in it's hateful inhumanity. I completely support Bernie Sanders in his stand against allowing one penny of US funds to be used in any way to further this atrocity against men, women, children, babies, that have in no way injured the State of Israel. I well remember the anti-war demonstrations of the last enormous folly of US foreign policy, (when the Draft-Dodger-in-Chief's father hired a quack doctor to diagnose his worthless p.o.s. son with "bone spurs"). That greasy-headed McNamara, with his policy of "containment" is worthy only of contempt, and Westmoreland should have refused to carry out his President's orders, including the "carpet-bombing" of neighboring non-combatant countries. We're seeing parallel examples of misguided and tragic policies today in the Levant, by an equally depraved PM. Making this distinction clear - "Jews" vs the Israeli Government - is critical to the US as well, since it is the US who is Israel's chief ally. Anything else is nothing less than hideously Hitler-esque, and could cost a kind and decent man his re-election.

Assuming the "extended" family (i.e. cousins, second-cousins, etc), none at all. To the OP, I am not in contact with any family (cousins, 1st or more) members, and haven't been for decades, and I miss them not one whit. I have one sibling, who is completely non-judgmental, and supportive of who her brother is. I hear from her family (i.e. her kids) never - which is fine with me. I do have a fairly extensive "chosen" family, who I am very regularly in contact with, and that's all I need to fulfill the "family" need.

That's partially true, with the exception of current office-holders. When a politician has held office, and is seeking reelection, we have his/her voting record to judge them by; what they've actually done, as well as (admittedly the far less weighty) what they say they're going to do.

There is a way to participate, and remain unbothered by insincere stirring-of-the-pot remarks. At the top of the home page, there are a number of things we can click on, one of which is entitled "other". Click on that, and a dropdown will appear, offering a number of choices, one of which is "ignore'. If you "ignore" some particularly offensive participant, you will no longer see the objectional content, (unless it's quoted in a reply by some other guy), and it will be easier to avoid paying attention to the unwanted content from that particular member. I'm hoping you won't abandon the thread, since - at least for some of us - the discourse on many widely-ranging, thought-provoking subjects is important to most of us. Your input is well worth the read and consideration. Some time ago, I blocked one guy whose input was never worth the time (to me) it took to read, and that's that. Please keep participating.

The word "religion" carries a connotation of the Western belief-system, which has served us ill for centuries - about 20 of them. I don't consider Buddhism in that same "basket of deporables" (remember that one?). That particular belief-system is based on decent human behavior, rather than killing off those who don't believe in one singular dogma based on magic.

Agreed - and that applies to any "belief-system" (usually cloaked in religious dogma) that causes separation rather than unity. A while ago, the boy-blunder Speaker of the House was supposedly quoted as believing that he might be able to bring about "the end times" - as in the Old (anciently old) Testament. He's allowed to believe what he wants to believe in (religiously), but no one is allowed to force their magical delusions on everyone else. The Magaroids are getting really close to the dogmatic beliefs of other ancient belief-systems that depend on magical illusions from the ancient past. Yet, some of we humans still cling to that which divides us, in the belief that they will be spared the apocalypse, if and when it happens.

We need another choice added to the 7 choices at the bottom r.h. corner: How about PERFECTION ???

Not at all. You and the the other guy made a deal, and he was the one who broke the agreement. HE's the jerk (I would have used the word "asshole", but I like them too much to denigrate them)

I enjoy the aural aspect of Breeding Hole ... but I'm hardly loud about it. Much prefer bending over the bottom's back and whispering truly filthy Breedtalk in his ear ... no matter how jammed the darkroom is. When they respond in kind, it's appreciated - even if just communicated in grunts and groans of pleasure. When I'm done, sometimes I'll tell the next guy in line something like "that's really good Hole ..."

I reckon it's just more of the "talk is cheap" stuff. What I don't get is, why would a guy say/post that he's into something, when he's not? And then go on to complain about how tough it is to get laid ... Why not just say what you mean, and mean what you say? I don't get it either, which is only one of the reasons I don't bother with the fuck-apps anymore.

I tend to look for the "better" rather than the "non-better", but that's just my bent. When all is said and done, the actual words don't really matter; it's what the intent happens to be that matters. Language - just like a hammer or screwdriver - is our most commonly used "tool" to communicate with others. It's the intent behind the words that's either reinforcing or negative. I see these efforts at making language relating to those of us that are sexually different from the majority as efforts to make language itself less able to be interpreted as negative in connotation. I'll bet that we've all heard Black Americans use a word amongst themselves that would get non-Af/Am's asses kicked if they used the word, and justifiably so. Sure, I'm pleased to know that one of our organizations has taken this step, which can only be interpreted as a step forward, but it won't make the kettle boil over either. It's all in how the language is used that's so important.

Agreed. I don't necessarily care for all the references to the latest pop star, all of that, but it's worth putting up with to watch the rest. And, I'm familiar enough with guys that don't look like me to know that his ass is covered with coarse, black hair, and would be as tasty as any. I do enjoy most of the guests though, however once his show is over, I turn on Netflix, or just turn the tv off. "Some of them have a very DISTANT (if any relation) to law ...." I'll say - lots of the stuff about the latest pop star doesn't interest me at all, but he does, which makes him flash those pearlies. I don't really care for The Woman In Black though - constant, incessant self-promotion tends to turn me off.

Guilty as charged !! To the rest, I'd love to rut in his Hole while he ruts in yours ... and you may have noticed that he doesn't wear a gold ring on his finger either. There must be some reason he's divorced. I must have been doing some guy in the corner when they handed out the "gaydar" - I have almost none - but I know what I like. And, don't forget the ex-wrestler who is an occasional guest on the preceding (week days) show .... grrrrrrrrr ...

Wellllll .... if he works there, and depends on his wages at all, then toeing the "party line" isn't all that surprising. That said, I hope with all my heart (and Cock) that he's 100% correct !!! How was "Sloppy Sunday" last night ???

None taken, none intended. Merely an oblique reference to a regrettable misuse of the term.

They're probably not all as thoughtless as their fingers imply. The state of public education has been deteriorating for years. That said, you're right: it's a bit of a task to excuse some of the poor usage these days ....

Thanks, as always, for that comprehensive explanation.

Thanks for that interesting and important link. As a kid, one of my mothers cousins fits the descriptors in the article. We never knew what/why/how he was different, we just knew he was, and we were not to make fun of him, treat him any differently than any other person. I remember he held a number of low-skill jobs, dishwasher at restaurants, etc. He kept to himself, but attended family gatherings, and none of us kids (or, presumably the adults) knew quite how to interact with him. He was a gentle kind of guy, quiet, kept himself in the background, and we kids seemed to just accept that he was different in some way, and left it at that. Kids don't understand these kinds of abnormalities, but it's not tough to be kind to those folks either. At (extended) family gatherings I was always asked to play requests (piano), and he always asked for a piece called Bumble Boogie - finally I told my mom to go downtown and buy the sheet music*, so he could have his request played too. It seemed like such a simple thing to do for him, and he always appreciated it. Now, I can't even remember how that dull piece even began .... but it served it's purpose back then. *I would have gladly taken my bike and done it myself, but I was forbidden to ride my bike downtown, despite having done it any number of times on the sly. Some things we learn really early on .....

Well said. Often, cloaking the 'message' in 'descriptors' is how some guys are able to excuse their mental/sexual demons. It's a shame that any guy feels the need to do that, but .... Which, at least to my mind, is the entire point. The sexual "connection" doesn't happen every time, but it is worth the effort every time.

Well, neither have I. It was only something I could come up with at the moment that might possibly be helpful. Not the best tool for me either, but - at least a notion that might lead to another more useful one.
