Just warning you guys that comments like that may get you into trouble on a public messege board.
From the Public Message Board Police?
Seriously, nobody is being homophobic. It's just a comment, and I'm sure it wasn't meant as being offensive. You have to kid people about SOMETHING, and being gay (or not) is just one more thing on the long list of things to accuse people of, like driving a Hyundai or being a Packers fan.
When gauging the "offensiveness" of a comment, you have to take into account the context of the discussion as well as what was said. This was not an attack on gays, just some mild ribbing. I would take it the same if someone accused me of being a Pagan even though I'm Christian. I COULD be offended by it, but why?
