Definitely. I guess you used the faggoty term without putting too much thought into it. Insults on a person can be roughly divided to degrade mental or physical capabilities or distinct features. While using the word 'faggoty', I take it you're not implying Robin's gay, but rather, suggest his outlandish wardrobe is something that could be related to the gay community. The problem is

Robin can dress however he likes...but its not for me and i still thought his image was stupid in gnr...

And that's a perfectly sound opinion on the matter. But when one ties negative connotations to the word 'faggoty', one relates sexual orientation to something [Robin] one feels is out of place / context within the structure [GNR] this something is represented in.

Get my drift here? Faggoty, outlandish, out-of-place.

fine then i'm a biggot...whatever you say

Didn't.

Originally, I was speaking in a general sense, mainly referring to a throwaway comment by Russ' friend, which, to me, had homophobic allusions. I wouldn't dare claiming his friend to be homophobic, as I've never met the man to begin with. The general subject (suspecting / detesting / abhorring the unknown and sometimes, de-humanizing or even demonizing it) is a matter deeply ingrained in the Western culture, and we as humanity still have a lot to learn about tolerance.


But I really want come down from the soapbox now.

unfortunately youths of the 90's have associated the word's gay and/or faggot with a derogatory comment....more of a subconscious thing than anything...i personally know a fair share of people who are gay, even attended a couple same sex marriages (which i 100% am in favor of btw) of freinds, but still sometimes i have a slip of the tongue around our freinds of that persuasion and will inadertantly call something "gay" then my wife shush's me .... i have to think back to what i actually said then i'm like "oops" ... i dont mean anything by it, do what you wanna do, love who you wanna love, be who you are, whatever makes you happy, man

but if i offended any board members by my use of those words i'm truly sorry...like i said i edited my post...its all i can do 19

I dont understand all the hate for DJ...he's got an awesome sound and some killer chops

for example....check out dj's playing on this track...the opening and riff start after a Nikki monologue intro (around 0:40) its nothing like crazy and technical or anything but the riff and swagger is there, with a pretty cool solo starting underneath another Nikki's spoken interlude around 3:10 ... i dig it, i'd love to see what he can come up with collaborating with axl and the boys  9

sorry...i revised my post to edit that out

No prob, man. I used to say it all the time, too. Trying to be better about it myself smile

The thing I never understood about the fashion critiques of the new line up is the fact the same people had no problem with these looks:

And Robin shined on some of my favorite GNR songs: TWAT, Better, Prostitute, Chinese Democracy, TIL... And I loved him on SCOM.

The last one is a classic. 5 However, difference tween Axl and DJ is that Axl is a complete mutt.....DJ is straight Sunstrep Strip rocker...just not my type....as Axl was't in 85-86.

And i'm frankly getting sick of the "word police". No wonder Axl doesn't visit this place.

i agree. we should be as offensive as possible. it's the only way we'll learn. & it's all done in good humour.. well mostly.. i'd say only the minority of people on this board don't have a sense of humour.. but fuck those boring faggots.
