I asked you to give examples about how you personally got left behind


I was not left behind because none of those prides were celebrated down here. We only had parties when we hit good metrics. And those kind of parties should be the only ones celebrated at work. Any other kind of party which has nothing to do with your job should be celebrated in your home.

No, Catholics don't share Muslim pride but we do close most of our shop on Christmas, do we not?


Nobody is pointing at you with a gun telling you to close your shop. You can go ahead and keep it open. Many stores and shops are open 24x7, 365 days a year.

As a straight man, when was the last time you personally felt your job was at risk because you are a straight man?


Never in my entire life. Never in any job. I had 5...which I changed for better ones.

Frankly, what it sounds like isn't that you feel left out but that you want gay people to go back into the closet.


You still don't get it. Anything which has nothing to do with your job shouldn't be celebrated at it.

My List

1. Sex has NO PLACE in the work place. I do not care who or what you like to sex with. It is not my business and i dont wanna know. You dont see Hetrosexual pride week do ya?Nobody gives a shit if youre gay or not.The only one who cant deal with you being gay is YOU! STFU already!

2. No one has to acept you or what you do in your bedroom. I dont care . Its your bedroom and by all means please romp and stomp all you can i know I do in mine. But i am not going to tell you what i do because sex is a personal thing .


3. It is very wrong for me as a PERSON to arrive at work to giant banners of rainbows and gay pride signs and be told that i have to go hear a speech given in order to tell me its ok for someone else to be gay and that i need to be tolerant and accepting of them......excuse me see #1. However my workplace is extremely hostile cause now i am being told i have to feel somthing for someone that i doint give a shit about. I dont feel anything about homosexuality good or bad...i dont care. It exist. But now i am TOLD i have to feel good about it.All religion ,sex,and such should not be allowed in the workplace.


4. Let me be clear gay or not is not the issue. The issue is corperate brainwashing. They want to control what you think and feel. Remember you are ok just because you exist on the world. Therefore you have a place here. Its not my call to say if thats good or bad. It simply is. It is Very wrong for a business to TELl me MY opinion and to subject me to pro--(insert cause here) programing.

Good post Rufus, a little angry though. I agree that a person's sexual preference, religion, or even how them wipe themself has no place at work. maybe someone at Dell will read this and realize we don't want someone's life shoved down our throat for a month.

You're gay. Good for you. Want a fuckin' cookie?

Go fuck off and leave me alone.

I will never be forced to endure a "gay pride" speech of ANY design. EVER. If that's the case then I'll demand to immediately go up and make a "I like to fuck whores and skanks, and I'm proud too" speech and see how they like it. There's no difference, it's all about proclaiming your preference, right? Making sure that ALL are aware and "tolerant" of it?

Jesus Christ people need a clue. Gay pride month...holy Hell. Fuck a hooker month is what we need next.

Do what Paul says. There are 6.5 million websites with "fuck off" as the theme, and 18 million with "fuck you". That should be plenty.

Scoop was right, it's very hard to be calm and objective about this issue, but it IS pertinent to Dell as long as they vocally and extraordinarily support a staff subgroup on the basis of what they like to stick their reproductive plumbing into. Canteloupe Pride? Sofa-cushion Pride? And for the ladies, Cucumber Pride with a separate day for peeled and unpeeled?

There's really only one side to this issue, and virtually ALL institutions already state it in their terms and conditions of employment: Sex is NOT a valid workplace issue AT ALL.

The question becomes, why does Dell then willfully violate their own terms when it comes to homosexuality? In Dell's case, like so many other of their corporate interactions with individuals, it's a dodge. So that when a PIPed gay employee sues them, they can say "look, we support diversity".

All this boo-rah over a simple biological function. Structurally, sexual arousal is most closely akin to a stuffy nose, fer Chrissake. Stuffy nose is a side effect of Viagra, Levitra, Cialis. Sneeze and get over it. (Neurologically, sexual climax IS a sneeze, albeit with more endocrinological ramifications.)

Speaking of Chrissake, He never meant it to be, but the damnation of gays is almost entirely rooted in religion, ANOTHER issue that is specifically excluded from the workplace. How did religion get from their lip-service "do unto others" (live and let live) prime directive, to scourging homosexuality?

Well, two big ones, Judaism and Catholicism, institutionally prohibit any sexual act that doesn't result in more Jews or Catholics. It's a legacy issue from the time when the propagation of organized religion depended upon expanding numbers of 'believers'. Which puts it in exactly the same category as the Afghan dude threatened with the death penalty for converting from Islam.

Homosexuality does NOT appear in any of the original Judeo-Christian scriptures. References to it were added in revisions as religious groups realized and exercised their ability to control people in furtherance of their own agendas.

Religion is a great thing, on paper. But like so many 'great things', when the administration of it is turned over to humans, it gets grossly subverted to serve principles that would have Jesus (Muhammad, Ganesh, Liberace, Whoever) rolling over in his grave.

On an even more South-Parkian note, kudos to Scientology for being the only religion founded on the beliefs of a third-tier science fiction author and not a 'prophet'. Does their finger-ohmmeter gizmo register gayness? If so, the National Enquirer would pay a half million for a look at Tom Cruise's readings.

You know what happened to the first version of this thread. We as moderators are trying to make posters stay on topic and prevent another battle of f*ck this, f*ck that and more.

The tyke sums it up pretty succinctly. And it's hard to censure a 3-month-old.

I'll tell you how i got left behind...no punished is more like it. I'm straight and i don't have to accept ANYBODY for their way of life.I don't give a toss WHO your bugger is. I DO NOT care if someone is GAY or not. The problem is that "There is no sex in the workplace" "By the way its GAY PRIDE MONTH" What the fuck is that shit.
No sex in the work place means no sex in the workplace..period. Whats next lonely masturbation month?
I was off work and 360 miles to the west during "Gay pride month" . Because i was 360 miles to the west AND OFF FROM WORK. I was sent to an HR rep and lectured on tolerance because i didn't attend a meeting to celebrate gay pride month. remember i was 360 miles away and off from work yet I was intolerant of gay people because I didn't come hear so and so speak at a gay pride function. Dell is intolerant of any one who has a family or anything that could overshadow Dell as GOD to its employees. Fuck Dell.
