Sorry, I forgot to say the subject matter that this post started with is very upsetting. You may not want to read it.
I didn’t click on the thread but gay men are no more likely to be CSAs than straight men. The problem is depraved men (it is almost always men) finding ways to gain access to victims.

I made the mistake of clicking on the thread and have read all the posts to date, there are some well structured responses but there are also a number of people that say that men shouldn't be allowed to adopt full stop

I did too. Was going to respond but didn’t know which post to start with.

Same, but I don’t have the energy to be going back and forth at the moment. I think @Metropolis said it plain and simple above, if anything it’s the system/process that needs fixing. You can’t just be getting kids adopted and then thinking, ‘oh well, we’ve got our hands free of that now, they’ll be fine’ 🤷‍♂️ To single out just gay men/partners is stupid. If you then go to the next option and single them out, and so on, you’ll basically end up with all these kids living in government run institutions where they’ll be safe and very well looked after….right?......

Bit of a debate going on in The real life crime & murder thread.. (the link will take you to the actual post it starts #367 not the one shown here)

"We will, unfortunately, never get rid of all paedophiles (if only we could! :mad: ) but we can do our best to reduce the risks by not giving young babies to gay men"

I'm a little bit disappointed with the person who posted that.

I've agreed with much of what they say on other threads, not on what they've said in that thread though!

I replied back with what I wrote above but the topic had died down.

Anyways, I feel bad for bringing such a dark topic here, sorry.

No need to feel bad or apologise imo, so hope you continue to post on the thread!

I guess it's that time of year again 🤔
Is this a 1st for Asda? I don't remember them doing anything in the past for trans pride month 🤔
I don’t know for sure but doubt it, I thought all or most of the supermarkets did this with their apps? I checked my Lidl and my Lloyds apps and it hasn’t but my phone is donkeys years old and can no longer update and haven’t been able to for years so don’t know if they have!

I mainly only use Tesco and Asda, and I'm pretty sure I always wondered why Asda didn't make a big fuss like the rest, I'm surprised they've now coloured in their whole name/logo. I was just curious, my stupid brain could be remembering it all wrong 😊
 
Happy Solar Eclipse Day LGB’s :)🐺
Are you going to make the new thread, If so could we have a poll if think the T is affecting the lgb? (Yes, No, etc) would be interesting seeing as from this thread poll 43.9% are straight.. It seems Ensay out of action, can't tag him, I'd be happy to start a new thread and poll later tonight and keep it simple, but would be better started by you 😉

I don’t mind either way, you can start it if you want or if you want me to? It has to have a rhyming title though this time round. Maybe it can be a group effort discussion with suggestions beforehand - most likes/hearts/lols wins? :D

EDIT: I don’t mind including that poll but tbh I would expect it to come back at least 95%+ from regular contributors to this thread, I can only imagine it would be lower if loads of random people signed on purposely to this thread to disagree. Can you do multiple polls on one thread? It could be good to ask different questions

EDIT 2: thought it rude and forgot to open my rhyme suggestion with my own suggestions but the first one i realise is not a rhyme lol but I like it:

“Let’s get one thing straight: I’m not.”

Oh no you should definitely be the one to make the new thread, I only volunteered as an afterthought to help incase you didn't want to, I just wanted a poll 🤭

I get what you're meaning about my poll suggestion and could possibly cause a lot of drama being at the top of the 1st page of a new thread instead of naturally just being brought up in the thread 🤔
Anyways, love your thread suggestion, it's a yes from me 👏 😄

Anyone have any other suggestions? As I just realised some of us are straight here so maybe something else? Open to suggestions!

And tbh I wasn’t even thinking about that question in terms of drama! Just that it’s a been a dominant topic in the last threads of these and huge majority here all agree that T is affecting LGB and wishes it would go away. I can include it as a poll as a visual representation though so anyone - visitors* or otherwise - can see the poll results and see how strongly on a pro UK LGB thread we do not agree with the T?

*Not sure if visitors/non-users can see poll results

I get what you mean with my thread suggestion, it's already been discussed with regulars to the thread, and the fact the thread is titled LGB, don't feel I'm pushing you to make a poll lol, it just popped in my head and thought would be interesting to see, if you did do one, maybe a more light-hearted one, as for a thread title... I still have nothing..

Thread suggestion
LGB Discussion #3 It’s All Now About The Tea 🍵
(Sorry, not being serious but I can only think of the T to rhyme with three 😄)

This is my favourite so far! Everyone agree!? Should I replace tea with T to bring home the point? 😄

And yeah thinking about it and if in line with that thread title if chosen I will do that poll. (That way we can witch-hunt and bully any TRA users that vote against it - joking before anyone reports me lol, as regular users of this thread and topic only know the bullying and witch hunting goes one way )😇

Why do I feel like a bad influence 😄
I was originally going to put it as -T-ea so it brings home the point but also just meaning tea, gossip/drama, it's up to you though 😊
