Pelican,
<<You are delusional for the reason is that you cannot see past your own views, you cherry pick the worst examples of one set of people and display them as the norm. Prevention of Aids/HIV is about safe sex practices, heterosexuals can spread the virus as well.>>
Let me repeat for the slow of learning:
1.5% of the population has an HIV/AIDs prevalency of 40+ times the normal population.
Your <<heterosexuals can spread the virus as well>> claim carries the implication of some sort of equivalency.
The statistics resoundingly refute your misleading claim.
"You (ignore) the (plethora of bad) examples of one set of people and" and pretend they don't exist.
You do this in an effort to normalise a high-risk abnormality.

CJMorgan:"If anything, yours is the 'appeal to popularity', by implying that because most footballers are supposedly homophobic, then it's OK to discriminate against the minority of footballers who are gay."

Not, actually old chap. Your original claim was that because the broader population (including footballers, in their role as citizens) jad moved to a certain view, then the minority in football clubs should just copp ir sweet. A straight-forward "appeal to popularity", as favoured in the tabloid media.

Do you have any other reason for oppressing footballers who just want to be footballers?

'Participating as a spectator '
Good one. I'll use that next time my partner does the housework.

'As I said, it's a simple case of "we don't do that here"'

Like drinking Chardonnay? Does that mean if a player drinks Chardonnay in a cafe in his own time he is threatening football culture even if he has a beer like the rest of them after the match?

Once anyone spots them drinking Chardonnay and it becomes known they are a Chardonnay drinker, no matter how many beers they drink in the change rooms, they're still imposing their Chardonnay culture on football?

You're acting as if someone not hiding their gayness is an aggressive assertion of gay culture over football culture. I say that's more than a little bit bullsh1t.

It's like your putting the onus on the world to protect football players and their fantasy that everyone who plays football is straight.

If that belief is that important and easily justified, the authorities of the game should make it official that no gay players are allowed to play. Have the courage of your convictions.

I repeat for the slow of wit:
"A women's shower room is a desexualised zone.
If men, who are naturally sexually attracted to women, were allowed into a women's shower room it would become a sexualised zone.
Most normal women would feel uncomfortable knowing that men would be looking at them in a sexual, albeit natural, way.

A men's shower room is a desexualised zone.
If open homosexuals, who are unnaturally sexually attracted to men, were allowed into a men's shower room it would become a sexualised zone.
Most normal men would feel uncomfortable knowing that homosexuals would be looking at them in an unnatural, sexual way.

Women have a right to a desexualised shower room.
Men should also have a right to a desexualised shower room."

It's just commonsense,
which is, unfortunately,
exceedingly uncommon
amongst homo-apologists.

Antiseptic, you're just being obtuse. Have a read of Howler's latest comment, with which I agree.

What's your real reason for oppressing gay men and boys who just want to be footballers?

CJ, the real reason has nothing to do with logic, as evidenced by his immature and abusive posts.
It's homophobia, pure and simple (but you already know that). It's pointless engaging in conversation with those types. Logic is a foreign word to them. I don't know why you bother - - - amusement maybe?
