Rob Maitner Makes Playbill Headline! — Page 3

Where to start:
First off, I was not saying I dislike gay men. Please. Anyone who knows me, knows I am pro gay rights.
I just made the mistake of taking a date once to a Carol Channing impersonation event and it did not appeal to my date.
He felt uncomfortable at the Duplex. I don't date him anymore but he was hot and I liked him. He thought my friends were to colorful and he was not. Good riddance to him.
This date just wants to spend time with me alone and to be honest if I had to choose on spending a romantic night out with a hot straight guy or a gay event, I would choose the romantic evening with a date.
Gay men are fun but I can't marry them.
But I am and always will be friends with gay men.
I am really sick of all the attacks though.

PS I saw La Cage last week with a straight man.
And my guess if a gay man got asked on a date with a cute guy he liked or he could spend it seeing a show with a girlfriend, my guess is he would go on the date with the hot guy.
It makes perfect sense.

Corine - for a one-time event? Yes, I would. Massages you can get anytime.

Where to start:
Once again, no question mark.

First off, I was not saying I dislike gay men. Please. Anyone who knows me, knows I am pro gay rights.

Once again, you totally miss the point. Are all short people stupid? No one ever said you didn’t like gay men. Quite the contrary, you love gay men just a tad too much, Core. Reread this thread and tell me where anyone accused you of being anti-gay.

I just made the mistake of taking a date once to a Carol Channing impersonation event and it did not appeal to my date.

I have a little secret you need to know. It is a very well kept secret in the gay community, but since you love gay men soooo much I think you should know…A LOT OF GAY MEN HATE CAROL CHANNING AND ESPECIALLY CAROL CHANNING IMPERSONATORS! (Don’t tell any straight people this, it might upset them to know that not all gay people fit your narrow minded stereotypes.)

He felt uncomfortable at the Duplex. I don't date him anymore but he was hot and I liked him. He thought my friends were to colorful and he was not. Good riddance to him.

He was hot and you liked him…so YOU dumped HIM? I wonder if it might be that he dumped you. Thus you are hesitant to take another date there.

This date just wants to spend time with me alone and to be honest if I had to choose on spending a romantic night out with a hot straight guy or a gay event, I would choose the romantic evening with a date.

But God forbid you run into a gay friend or take him to a Movie (cuz straight guys hate theatre, too queer) that may have a gay storyline or character.

Gay men are fun but I can't marry them.

And there is your problem, because you obviously can’t marry a straight man, either. I know all short straight women who are 40 (yes, we know, not till September, but close enough) are totally desperate and will never feel fulfilled unless they are married, even if it is to a homophobe who will not accept her friends.


But I am and always will be friends with gay men.

But will they always be friends with you? Not if you keep displaying such ignorance a stereotype them into a corner.

I am really sick of all the attacks though.
How do you think we feel?

PS I saw La Cage last week with a straight man.
And has he called you back? If not I am sure it has nothing to do with the show.

And my guess if a gay man got asked on a date with a cute guy he liked or he could spend it seeing a show with a girlfriend, my guess is he would go on the date with the hot guy.
Ah, the old Marcia Brady “Something suddenly came up!” excuse. Well, here you may be right. But I know a LOT of people, both gay AND straight, who honor a commitment regardless of what comes through the door. That is what friends do.

So Core, you once again missed the point and avoided answering my questions. And, of course, once again edited your response.

now i am weeping about my exile to the sticks. mrs. mambo just exclaimed that "no robbie, no love" and stormed out to hang the wash on the line. i am beside myself with regret and anguish. oh, yeah, and congrats, b*itch.

only for you, sueleen, only for you.

---

Ditto!

ckeaton, I am sure Robbie could arrange THAT!

I would like to go on record here and let you know that straight men LOVE me!

And I'm not talking about 'straight' boys who like to have sex with me. I mean like, they just love hanging out with me.

I'm not sure what it's about. Maybe it's because I'm a total filthpot. Growing up with three supremely straight older brothers (all of whom NEVER ONCE uttered the word faggot, at least not in front of me) seems to give me the tools (tee hee) to get along with my straight brethern.

---

But you can't "Buy a ticket?"

---

i'd like to apologize to anyone who may have taken offense to my earlier remark. while it was not my intention to be exlusionary in any way i can see how some may have misinterpreted my remarks as a rejection somehow of a special bond. this was in no way my intention. i love you all, you know how you are, and if i were to go over, i think you know, you special one, who i mean, and i'm talking directly to you right now, that you'd be the one, or ones, for whom i'd betray marital bliss. i never meant to hurt anybody.

Break a leg, Robbie! And I just wanted to bump this to remind you all who are in the neighborhood to stop by tonight. And don't forget tomorrow! Sending Gay Angels and wishes for Marvelous Miracles your way for the whole weekend!

gawd, why do gay events have to be so...well...gay?
