So, my friend used to be in this local rock band out here in San Francisco. They are pretty good and the lead singer's brother is actually VERY famous, so they get to play decent gigs and venues. Well, my friend has since quit the band (her day job is/was taking off), and has been replaced with some new chick. Even though she isn't playing with them any longer, I am still friendly with her former bandmates, and they invite me to their shows all the time. Typically, due to my job, or location at the time, I am usually unable to attend, but I promised them I would go to their next show. Their next show is on Thursday night, in San Francisco, at a gay bar, during gay pride week. Now, I have no problem with the gays. I love me some gays! (I have a feeling this line will come back to haunt me...). But I also don't know if I should be hopping around a gay bar during pride week by myself (the plan was to go alone). Granted, I could probably use the ego boost that comes with a bunch of gay dudes grabbing and groping me, but I have to keep in mind that...it is a bunch of gay dudes grabbing and groping me... And no, I am not thinking awfully high of myself. Gay Pride week is one big fondlefest in the City. In fact, back in 1998, there was a motion to officially change the name of Gay Pride Week to FondleFest 14. So the question is, do I go to the show at the gay bar to support my quasi friends while most assuredly getting my junk fondled by dudes? Or do I risk further alienating my friends and missing a good local band for the sake of not being molested continuously? I leave it up to you all.
For further information on the subject, I present the following: Band: Disgust of Us http://www.myspace.com/disgustofus Bar: The Stud Bar www.studsf.com
Eh just go dude. A guy fondles you.....big deal just back off. I mean it isnt pleasant, but I've had much worse happen at concerts. Just have a good time.
"Hey dude wanna go to a gay pride event with me?" Not that theres anything wrong with it, but it just sends up a bunch of red flags when you ask someone that
The fondling would be a deal-breaker for me. I've got no problem being hit on or flirted with, but as soon as someone grabbed my junk there would be problems. So, I voted to avoid it... You can find good local bands in more comfortable surroundings. ...and you did call them your "quasi" friends.
I invited my friend who used to be in the band, but she is a no go. I invited another lady friend of mine, but she has tests until 9 at night. I am contemplating one other lady, otherwise it is me by myself.
Well, most of my gay friends (and relatives) call it Pride Week (or simply Pride), so I'd probably take it as innocently as was intended.
I have gay friends and relatives but they aren't into the whole pride thing so I dont really know what to call it haha.
Guess it depends on the bar. Depends how you'd deal with getting your *** grabbed by a dude as well. Not saying it'd def happen, but you do look kind of fruity to begin with.
Go ahead and go man. If any guys bother you just say 'I'm hear for the music' or 'I'm with somebody'. I've met a few gay guys before and once they know you're straight, they shouldn't bother you.
Dude, I need to stress that this is PRIDE week. It's not a couple of gay dudes. I have been to PRIDE week before, and it is a ****fest, which is cool, if you're gay. I am not, they won't leave you alone, trust me. I could probably sell tickets like an *** grabbing booth. Say, that isn't a bad idea. Maybe make some money...
wear a "I voted for Bush" button. They'll either leave you alone or kill ya but at least they wont fondle you
I could wear an, "I like Bush," T-shirt. Then it would confuse them on whether it is a political statement or a sexual preference!
Iron on a picture of his pathetic face onto the shirt. That or a guy just doing a face palm. Either way, same thing.
Prob with that is that it could get thrown into a "hate crime" category which would be BS but does happen. Now if you grabbed a girl's *** and she decks you then that's within her rights.
the comedic thing to say is go and drink and get jerked off by a jon lovitz look alike.......but iam being a friend here....and i would stay the **** away....but thats me
is this a serious question? lol. how can i tell you how comfortable you will be with being repeatedly sexually violated? you could wear a cup. wont protect your from the fingers being shoved in your *** though. not to mention the nipple tweaking. but hey, you wouldnt want to "alienate" your friends would ya? lol
We all have to sit back and think in the minds of Teh Gheys. If you were Teh Ghey, would you attack Sam?
You dont even seem to like these people that much to begin with so who cares if you disappoint them? If you arent comfortable with the environment just say you arent comfortable with the environment. They can either deal with that fact or take their quasi friendships and stick em...which they very well may do if theyre in to the whole gay pride week thing.
No way would I go, and if your friends cant understand that then you need some new friends IMO. I mean I'm not homophobic but a gay bar in the middle of gay pride week for a single guy is not a place I would want to be.
Oh those? He's had those since Lucky brought them for him. He sleeps with them every night just for his pal. Agreed, stuff can come out that way but nothing's goin in that way.
I just dont want to find out that "Borderland" is some gay club in the castro district and "Wolf" is the gay version of "cougar". If he posts a Barry Manilow video in the "Whats thumping in your ears" thread....
