I didnt start on sexual preferences - YOU did, when "hetero bashing " entered the equation. I dont see wishing someone a happy anything to be bad posting manners, I see it as a generic courtesy to those who like to be wished happy something - by the inferred rule you set, the congratulations at the topof the forum have nothing to do on this page. Neither have the tons of Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas posts in this forum - I put happy pride day on an equal footing - its an important event for many, and people want to wish eachother a pleasurable/happy event. That's, if nothing else, community SPIRIT. HMatienzo - Don't you think those glasses have nekkid thumbs on them ? ~S
