Board Game Likely To Draw LGBT Scrutiny

[WillParkinson]

(Topeka, Kansas) The son of Gov. Kathleen Sebelius (D) is peddling a board game titled 'Don't Drop the Soap,' a prison-themed game he created as part of a class project at the Rhode Island School of Design.
John Sebelius, 23, has the backing of his mother and father, U.S. Magistrate Judge Gary Sebelius. Sebelius spokeswoman Nicole Corcoran said both parents "are very proud of their son John's creativity and talent."

1. Jesus.

What the fuck is a state GOVERNOR doing endorsing a game like that? I know it's her kid and all, but come on...

4. I don't think his parents are specifically referring to the "game" per se

He also designs and sells custom clothing


From his website:

11. And a Democratic governor at that

Please, tell me again how the Democratic Party supports gay rights and opposes bigotry?

2. On top of everything else it isn't all that orginal

some of it is stolen from Oz, the glass thing, and some of it is stolen from American History X (the Arians in the shower). Unreal to say the least.

3. Bad taste aside, why would this be a cause for LGBT concern?

I don't understand the media expects us to care about a game where you try to avoid straight-identified men who have sex with men.

I'm really tempted to buy this game just so I can add "A Bag of Coke" to my Monopoly pieces. Who wants to be the shoe or the wheelbarrow when you can be a bag of coke?

5. don't drop the soap refers to rape. you wanna be raped in the shower? nt

[La Lioness Priyanka]

6. i think what he means is that straight identified male on male rape

is not really an lgbt concern

[hulklogan]

8. Exactly. What straight guys get up to in prison showers isn't our concern

other than the rape aspect, which is definitely everyone's concern (not just LGBT Americans).

7. What a vulgar thing to teach children.

Sad that people want their kids to grow up talking and thinking like the stereotypical human garbage depicted in some kinds of popular culture.

9. the way I see it

it's equally offensive to everyone

in the grand scheme of things, this is not that important

[La Lioness Priyanka]

10. yeah its the way i see it to. rape is a universal concern, not just ours
