Victim of "straight O Phobia"

Ok, So after a great night down the pub with a great group of people one guy decides he wants to proposition me.
At first I treat it as a joke, laugh it off but he persists, comments like "don't knock it till you've tried it" start rolling out. I make it clear he is a great guy who makes me laugh and a guy I feel close too but there is no sexual attraction.
He then tells me "straights are so boring" and the image of a man and woman making love is "gross" and I "NEED" to try a guy.
I felt harassed, abused victimised, I'm seriously considering making a hate crime complaint. How would I go about this?

But if I were a homosexual and a "straight" had said such things...............................(I can link posts on this very forum showing how this forums reacts);-)
Imagine a street sign, Banstraights way.....
It never happened. I'm pretty sure that this exact same story was posted by another one of his 'Underscore_Army' not long back.
It happened, it happened tonight, that is a FACT. Yes this actually happened. It happens often, its time it stopped.
But that's not what happened. Someone who fancied you for some reason apparently made a clumsy attempt at a pick up in a pub. Perhaps they were pissed. That's all.
I have to say the 'real name' underscore posters seem to be the most obvious trolls.
I'm aware my username has an underscore but it was force of habit with me as spaces weren't generally allowed for usernames when I started out on my 28.8k modem!
Er, not quite the same though, is it?
Also, I have serious doubts this even happened ;-)
So saying the image of a man and woman making love is gross is not offensive?
Why is'nt is the same? are you saying straights are less worthy?
Troll. Singular. This is one of the more obvious bait-threads though.
Talk about needing a life...
No, it's the opinion of a probably pissed bloke, not someone saying your personal shagging is offensive to them. No more than me saying Man Utd winning makes me puke.
So if he says the image of 2 men making love is offensive thats ok too?
It makes me very sad when people say this.
There. Y'see?!
Of course.
I've had one name in the last 6 years or so, this one. If you think I have had several names please state them. Or report to a moderator. The last time I posted on DS was "around" 2009.
An I wasn't banned, I just slowly posted less and less until I stopped posting. No drama, no reason.
But even I don't believe this OP. It just sounds as contrived as it is unlikely.
Well you just carry on being offended then. Good luck with that one.
I thought you'd never ask! Done & done
Report away,
WOW, So 2 men making love is offensive to you? Love does not see gender, >:(
To be honest, I see the comparison, but I heartily disagree.
It's perfectly possible for somebody to be racist towards somebody who is white. I agree with you there.
But, everywhere in the whole world, straight people are both statistically speaking the vast, vast majority, and as a result amount to what can only be described as the 'cultural norm'. Gay (and others such as bi, trans etc) are always very small, oft-oppressed minorities even in developed and civilised countries.
So, yeah, but no.
