Musical Homophobia - or The Homophobia Histories

[ahinton]

Yes, there is. The pattern of yourself endlessly cluttering up these boards with homosexualist tittle-tattle.

Er - have you by chance noticed the thread title? Perhaps not - though, even if not, one might well wonder why you clutter it up with so much stuff about a subject in which you have so often clarified your reluctance even to feign interest...

Why not try commenting on something to do with MUSIC for a change ?
You might actually learn something in the discourse
rather than parade you tired old obsessions with Gay people ?
Or better still just come out of the closet Pee you know you want to and i've been reliably told it's not that bad you know , you might actually make some friends ?

Re Mr Pee's emergence from the closet, I offered to fall in love with him in an earlier posting, even promising to to send flowers, but I'm afraid that his lack of response can only mean rejection !

What a lucky guy I am ! ( Men are such beasts ! )

Very nourishing at this time of year, but usually imported from Israel, I believe...

Time to move on [double thumbs up!]

This bit sums it up..........


"Marriage between a man and a woman is good for society and beneficial for governments to uphold in legislation."

"It is about providing a future for the next generation where they can be raised by their biological parents, wherever possible," the statement said, adding that "it is now time to move on".

"It is about providing a future for the next generation where they can be raised by their biological parents, wherever possible," the statement said, adding that "it is now time to move on".

It's important, however, for the sake of proportionality, to note that this quotation is from the Australian Christian Lobby and, as such, should not and cannot expect to be taken as representative of the Australian adult populace as a whole, any more than could a statement from any other lobby group; in so saying, I do not seek to undermine either the views of that group or their entitlement to hold and publish them, but we are talking a minority group here. It is, however, perhaps more important still to point out that very few people (namely that tiny minority opposed in principle to the institution of marriage in all its forms) would likely argue with the statement that "marriage between a man and a woman is good for society"; the upholding of same sex marriage rights is not for the purpose of undermining opposite sex marriage, as almost any homosexual will tell you if asked.

At the risk of presenting a less than ideal analogy, the late and much lamented Shura Cherkassky once wrote of a Schumann transcription of mine "it is well written, but I do not approve of changing Schumann's works" which, notwithstanding my immense admiration for his work, is a strange statement given that Schumann's works remain intact despite what I'd done, just as Chopin's Études do despite Godowsky's Studien über die Etüden von Chopin (and Cherkassky's statement might seem stranger still given how he habitually altered Schumann's works every time he played them!) - the point here being that opposite sex marriage likewise remains intact and the laws governing it have not changed in Australia.

Ah, Australia, yes; once again, for the sake of proportionality, we should perhaps bear in mind that we're discussing a country whose population is less than 23m - i.e. only some 1 person in 310 in the world is an Australian living in Australia...

What are your thoughts on this development, Mr Pee?

And what about the retrogressive actions of the Indian government?

Can you imagine what it's like being told one moment that you are a full member of the human race and then that the government has changed its mind?

What about gay children who are born into heterosexual marriage where they don't take it well? What about chidren born into a gay or lesbian (or even bisexual) marriage?

As posed the above statements are too simplistic to be credible, in my view.

Do you think perhaps that Shura was kindly telling you that your transcription was insufficiently transmogrified, or difficult or had insufficient hidden melodies? How he loved those three qualities.

Thanks for reminding me of the sheer glee apparent in much of his playing.

Funny how these tunes pop into our heads, isn't it. That's my earworm for the day now, without doubt. Cheers, eighth!

I'm still puzzled why Mr Pee announces any interest in gay matters in Australia, given that he and his chums here tell us that what goes on in Russia is none of our business.
