Was today a particular day for homosexuals at the fest or am I just getting old and they're all homeosexuals theses days (apart from the Italians)...
I don't particularly like heteros procreating in the open and can also do without the homos trying... it's hard enough trying to explain to U-10's what the world is all about...

It was indeed Gay Sunday at the Wiesn, something that is common knowledge so to be honest, your attitude is the one that was out of place.

Sorry Katrina but I don't think my attitude is out of place. If it's shoved in my kids faces during the afternoon then I can complain about it (straight or gay)...

Dunno if it's such a big deal. My kids and a couple others were racing around "the hill" yesterday afternoon out the back of our tent - past the sleeping drunks and a fumbling couple - and they didn't even bat an eye or care. However, if they see someone they know getting a hug or a peck they start yelling "kissy kissy", kids seem to differentiate things well.

It is as big a deal as people want to make of it and I'm sad to see intolerance passed through generations.
Plus I like seeing PDAs, better that than fighting! Yeah, I'm a bit of a hippy there - show the love!

Gay Sunday is a well-known and extremely popular event, like it is also well known that Italians descend en masse particularly on the middle weekend.
If you'd like to avoid a large amount of
gays or Italians or indeed huge crowds, pick your days. They do too.
Because otherwise it is like complaining you saw drunk people as well...

Lads and Lassies,
Corcaigh is a liberal humanitarian. He wants his kids to be well educated in the fine art of imbibing - as does every Irishman - and rightly frowns upon hetero/homo public displays of the "quare thing" interfering with his lessons. Am I right or am I right, Corcaigh?

I sat very close to a table of gays on Sunday, is there a possibility I caught gayness? I'm up to date with most of my shots, but I am a little concerned, I hear it is quite contagious.

Timmeh, stay with me here man. Focus, this is important.
Do you have a sudden affection for cats or really small dogs?
Do you think that you would look good in white capri pants?
Did you notice that your curtains didn't match your other furnishings?
Do you think you might like a flavored martini after work today?
If you have any of these symptoms you must immediately get a crate of beer, porn (straight or girl on girl), sports (real sports here football, soccer, rugby, baseball), Doner and alot of beans or cabbage. Sit on the couch in your boxers, one hand down the front, watch the porn and sports while drinking copious amounts of beer. finally and heres the where it gets technical, eat the doner and beans/cabbage, wait for your gastrointestinal tract to hurt with gas pain. Then rip the loudest farts you can muster. Laugh at the farts, out loud. call a friend and fart on the phone to then.
If you follow my instructions preceisely you may be ok.
Gods Speed.

For those of you afraid of getting it "rammed down your throat", the other popular days for gays are next Monday (Fischer Vroni)
and the last Sunday (Schottenhammel).
But lesbians and gay men will be at the Wiesn every day.
Munich is just as much our city and the Wiesn is just as much our fest.
I've even heard some of the people working there are "good with colours" too!

I didn't get home until 0830 this morning!

Normally this is the kind of thread I have to add my "senf" to but since everything has already been well said by the others I'll just say this to the topic starter:
I hope for your children's sake that they can learn tolerance from a source other than yourself, such an attitude, while still more or less acceptable for your generation, will cause them problems in the future.

Hey, my first question was to ask was yesterday a particular day or normal. Turns out it was a special day. Had I known that yesterday was gay Sunday then it wouldn't have stopped me going to the fest. I do however object to such a public display of sex (as distinct to affection) in front of my (2 youngest) kids but that is probably more my problem that theirs. I know I have brought my kids up to be tolerant (they are all Munich born & bred) and they accept and have amongst their relatives all possible types of sexual orientation (except priest/nun - alter-boy/girl, at least not that I'm aware of). I still don't feel comfortable sitting on the S-bahn with a couple of any sex (yesterday it happened to be same sex) trying to see if they can get their tongue so far down their partners throat that it sticks out their arse...

The way I read it was heavy kissing, which is a far cry from sex. One act is illegal in public, the other isn't. Perhaps Corcaigh can clarify exactly what he saw?

No, not what I said. I have no problem with public displays of affection but for me personally there is a level after which I find it not very appetizing (as an observer)...

For the sake of clearing up this misunderstanding between parnell and I. Were the men you observed having sex? Oral sex? Snogging? It seems you did use the term procreating but that doesn't really apply in homosexual relations and then you posted an explanation that was something more akin snogging. So which was it?
