See Z-lock is smart - double degree? - and I think he's nailed it - again.

Harry has a wife and kids, definitely not gay lol

that really isn't what the issue's about lol, it's pretty unlikely harry's gay. The issue is using a word that describes homosexuals used as a demeaning insult.

In response to the last two posts... ehhh it kinda is.

If you're saying the issue here and the reason why people are making a big deal over it is that harry might be gay then you're misinformed and have completely misinterpreted the problem.

Hang on, Ele was just responding to the guys above him who actually questioned whether Harry was gay.

Yeah, I wasn't certain what he was responding to, which is why I tried to ask for a bit of clarificaiton

This thread needs stickying!

I wasnt suggesting Harry was by the way if it came across like that.
Still say there is a lot wrong with what went on, the stupidity of it none the least. Depending on our personalities we place the wrongs in order of worst to least. It's interesting to see people's reactions.

I saw this on the internet

I've always seen insults to be seen how the person who receives it thinks they should be seen. Harry didn't have an obvious issue with it at the time so I really think it shouldn't be pressed. Stuff happens, BT has publicly apologised. It's always better to leave it here and just finish with the sorry and that is shouldn't be said again.

The issue is that it wasn't harry who was being insulted.

The only real insult was to the Gay community, Harry may feel a little insulted i don't know but i doubt it.

And luckily because you are open minded and willing to learn, you will realize after reading this thread that the insult was (intentionally or otherwise) aimed at homosexuals not Harry and therefore it was offensive.

Glad we cleared that up then.

Ziplock is right - again.

Yep, Rico's got it. Thought it was pretty obvious given the proximity of mine and Grazz's posts but hey, maybe not. #shouldhavequoted

Nah, I've read in a couple of articles that Harry said he wasn't insulted by it at all #goodblokeharry

Classic Ziplock. :P

[elephants]

Zip and Doc should:

A) get a room

Or

B) Get a life because it sounds like the same person runs both accounts :p

[Ziplock]

Maybe the same person runs zip, doc and let, and we're just trying to throw everyone off the scent :p


Or maybe, god forbid, there are multiple intelligent, cultured and modern thinking people on fanfooty :p
