You live in NYC..You dont think you have to deal with HOMOPHOBIC Bullshit
Edited on Mon Oct-02-06 09:11 AM by lionesspriyanka
and then someone tries to run you off the road...how lovely!

Look at this email below....


Second. You'll never guess what happened to me as I was biking to
work...
Riding through greenpoint, theres three construction worker looking like
jack asses sitting on a curb.
One looks at me and yells "Freak!..." and just as I am directly across
from him, passing him on my bike, "Homo

I laughed to myself and raise my middle finger as I rode off....
Whatever, right?... Nope.
So then..... I am riding along... and suddenly a car comes tearing up
the road, pulls up a ways in front of me, hazard lights on, and some
guy gets out of the car...
Some cyclists would only move a few feet out of the way of a person in
the middle of the street... I however, know they're all dumb asses, and
usually go to the complete other side of the road. Luckily I did
today...
As soon as I got near him, he charged at me and yells "You got a
problem, pussy!?" He then tried to grab me off my bike... I was a foot
away from him as he grabbed at the air near me, and only managed to get
out "Dude! Leave me the fuck alone!"...


I looked back and saw him running to his car... Then spent the next 5
minutes of my ride looking over my shoulder...

So anyways.. that was my morning comute, and I am still all shakey...
Bah!
People are so stupid.

1. WHAT A MAN!
Let's beat up women and call them pussies! That's manly.

Bastard Fuckers. So sorry this happened to you. Pieces of shit like this were only taught to hate and continued it on into adulthood.

Just remember that unless you're George W Bush, the universe tends to unfold as it should. And it will on that bag of hot dicks for sure.

7. listen
I used to reply in kind to these fucktards, but I learned, much as your gf no doubt has. It's not worth it...you offend their pitiful sense of masculinity and they may truly hurt you. Just smile and keep on trucking...Sometimes I like to really throw them off and I smile and say "God Bless You." That generally confuses the crap out of their miniscule minds. I am glad she escaped relatively unscathed. Be careful out there.

I'm glad she is okay.

I'm sorry there wasn't a cop around. Something like this probably isn't isolated. If that ass hasn't already gay-bashed someone then I'm sure he will at some point. Someone is going to end up getting seriously hurt because this guy hasn't been stopped.

14. Miriam agrees that you're both really cool.
Lisa strikes me as a resiliant type of person. But stories like that really bother me because his next target might not be so tough.

16. Wow. I find it disgusting that you claim to be queer and yet you consider
a description of a homophobic attack against a lesbian, a diatribe against men.

Homophobia is a-okay once someone decides to turn straight. I think Focus on the Family told me that.

Seriously. I would LOVE to hear an explanation of your statement. It deserves more than a hit & run post.

13. well, if it helps any,
I can't think of anything worse to wish on this guy than to be the pathetic asshole that he so obviously is. Looking in the mirror must be pure hell for this dickhead.

Still, I hope his tiny little balls fall off, too.

15. Sorry this happened to the gf, lioness.
She's a sweetheart, just like you.

Unfortunately, there are homophobes everywhere.

Glad she's ok.

Can I suggest that she acquaint herself with the locations of the police precincts along her route to work? If this happens again, she can ride to the nearest precinct and file a report. Or call 911 on her cell phone. Maybe they would dispatch a car to arrest the assholes.

31. the most homophobic crap I have dealt with or saw was in
San Francisco when I lived there, believe it or not. I think people come into town because of it's notoriety looking for trouble in the known gay areas. I used to see places marked around town that said, "a queer was bashed here." I have seen a few homophobic incidents in NYC also.

32. ugh! you know as a femme i have to deal with a lot of sexism
and sexually aggressive gestures/comments but men rarely try to run me down...

i kind of almost feel guilty that i dont have to deal with the homophobia the way the butches/andro/genderqueers do...
