Camp(ing) rant.
Admins, this is not homophobic, I just think that it's wrong, however feel free to remove this.

As you know Kirstie and I a doing a fair bit of camping/diving arounf Cornwall and are always looking for new sites - diving and otherwise.

Anyway yesterday she found this site.

Fair enough I thought, they welecome gays and lesbians, I'm cool with that, then I notices that they are exclusively for gays and lesbians.

Surley that's wrong?
Were I to open a campsite or club that was for Heterosexuals only, or white only for that matter, I'd be pilloried until I closed it or accepted the parties I'd excluded - who'd probably only want to come to make a point.

Is GLUG exlusive? I'm suspect just from statistics that there must be a few gay and lesbians on the list.

Is this PC gone mad? To my mind allowing this sort of exclusivity only adds to the problem of discrimination.

I understand your point mate.

Its the totally pc mad world.

What about the MOBO awards, could you imagine the fury if you devised a music of white origin awards ceremony.

personally i don't give a monkeys about anybodies leanings/politics/sexuality/race etc etc etc. Its the self perpetuating liberals that have to propagate this to keep themsleves busy having finished reading the guardian.

Only in that I think discrimination like this is equally as unfair as a majority discriminating against a minority.

There are also a few 'Adults Only' campsites - wonder what goes on there! LOL, nudie camping, perhaps - lots of sideways glances to gauge the size of other people's tentpoles! Competitions for the fastest erection! Hours of fun!
