Re: Gay Marriage
Hi shipmates, what is allowed in the western world, is still taboo in over half the world. Sodomy still carries the death penalty in many places if caught? What would they do to Gay married couples?... stone and hang them?

Re: Gay Marriage
#62... You"ll find a lot of the western world are very insular in their experiences of life. Apart from their organized tourism trips abroad the people learn nothing about a peoples way of life and beliefs. They are brainwashed into beleiving their way of life is correct. I dont believe Russia has passed laws about same sex intercourse, or most parts of Africa, dont know about China, but if they dont agree either, you have over 50 percent of the worlds people do not agree with. If you break this down even further, it is only an extreme minority who agree in the countries where it has been legalized. Just an inquiry has anyone had an eskimo girlfriend and if so is it true they just rub noses. JS

Brian it has been factually reported that the UK missed the Chinese market upto 5 years ago. The Germans and French have virtually cornered the whole scenario for themselves. It was also reported as to whether we could catch up and the answer was - debatable.

. Hi John
I was in Calleo in January and that west coast of South America was always British trade,
Every day there would be at least 3 sometimes 4 container ships docking full of containers of HAMBURG SUD.
So the Germans appear to have captured all the trade down there.
So while poncy Cameron has been sucking up to the `Gays` the Germans have been snatching our trade away. creating unemployment here and Germany is now the Power House of europe.
I despair.
Brian.

Re: Gay Marriage
#63- Like most of us on here, have tasted the pleasures of many cultures involving the fairer ( or darker) sex, travelling the world , but never actually tasted Eskimo. I doubt few of us have had this experience, would be interesting to find out if it was true that all would be ok once you got past the smell.

Re: Gay Marriage
It bothers me not if they chooser to practice Tounge and Groove or the Scottish version Ben Doon and Phil McCavity as long as it is not compulsory. We have all sailed with them at some time, most were on the liners with UCL, P&O, Cunard and Blue Star. The majority were first class wingers and first class in all they did. So professional in all they did that it would not surprize me if the brushed their teeth and had a grgle before giving a blow job.
But sadly many were unhappy, women trapped in the body of a man, a crule twist of fate where one chromosone was in the wrong place. I have no problem with them having worked with them at sea and ashore. But the bloody media like the vultures they are want to make a grand feast and festival out of it all.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Gay Marriage
That is the most disgusting photos I have seen.
Channel Four should be boycotted, If no one watches then the advertisers who finance it would pull out.
Cheers

Re: Gay Marriage
Do I take it that there is at least two of us not watching it then Brian , This was the second part of my objections to GAy Marriage , one being my own religious and personal feelings , the second being , every step given another step is demanded , 1st decriminalisation that I agreed with , second lowering the age of consent to 18 , sixteen will be the next move I expect , then what fourteen , twelve , where do these things lead to , Then almost every other male presenter camping it up on TV , followed by Civil Partnerships , then Gay Marriage , now the TV wants us to watch it too , I expect some person will want it to be compulsory next , on the if you don't try it How Jolly well DARE You Knock it , . My thought was how much more will they ram down our throats !!!
