Exactly. Thank you. Going by some, you'd think that James was some poor soul being led astray. James knows what he's doing.

Austin has been a more subtle Tila Tequila with James.

James knows it though, he's sad enough to enjoy the attention.

Austin has a crush on James, I'd agree with that. And they muck about in a way BOTH of them are comfortable with. How that makes Austin a predator is beyond me. I don't particularly like Austin, but I feel it's very unfair to label him like that.

I think Austin fancies him and if given encouragement from James he could be persuaded to stray.

Good point, and I'll add that James looks more than comfortable to be around Austin, stripped off, bathing, showering, strutting shirtless and being what I would describe as "brotherly" with him, because he is confident of his own straight sexuality. Both of them know the score and where the line is between them, and although they have been right up and on the line at times, especially Austin, it has never been crossed and I don't expect it to be either. They clearly both respect each other.

Yes, you are and are implying that he is predatory is deeply offensive

You don't have to go far with the straight community to uncover homophobic language

Oh go away with your homophobic accusations that is deeply offensive, getting into bed naked with a guy and asking him to rub cream on you isn't platonic and brotherly and tonight he was telling James he knows him better than all his mates that makes him a "little" predatory like in the title he's a married man he's got a massive crush on James and James is probably encouraging him with his hand kissing etc but at the end of the day it's Austin who's the married guy here

The two things have nothing to do with each other. If you think that James and Austin are behaving in a disrespectful way because Austin is married, then that is one thing. I completely disagree as Austin's husband seems fine with their friendship.

However 'predatory' suggests something completely different and is a very strong comment to make. It essentially accuses Austin of making James do things he doesn't want to do. This is something that James has vehemently denied.

How is saying Austin comes across as predatory, homophobic. I fail to see why.

I do t think he's predatory just needy

Of course predatory is homophobic

Predatory = preying on people

I'll be the judge whether something is homophobic or not

What the hell do you know about prejudice? Do you have some straight git hurl abuse at you when you walk down the street or not? No? Thought not?

Also they are very comfortable with each other. Comfortable where they know where the barriers are Austin Is gay, James is straight

You know its because of gossipy sanctemonius people like yourself that homophobia spreads. That causes damage. But what is that to a little straight gossip such as yourself

Eh?

[quote=broadshoulder;79681202]Of course predatory is homophobic

I do know what predatory means. Yes I believe he is acting in a predatory way but he just happens to be gay. He could equally have been straight and behaving the same way towards a woman. Predatory is predatory and saying Austin is, is not homophobic

Absolutely. Very unfair on Austin's husband.

[quote=patricia50;79681332]
Yes, it is. Its very homophonic

Are you gay?

Since when do you care for Austins husband?

I'm married. If I was in the house I wouldn't be sleeping in a bed with a woman because it would be disrespectful to my wife.

"the straight community"

The only person linking predatory behaviour and homosexuality is you.

I will ask you again "since when did you care about Austins husband"

No. I will be the judge.

And your the one who started this ghastly thread

[quote=broadshoulder;79681359]
I hope you do not yet an answer to this. Other peoples' sexuality is none of your business.

I don't understand your question.

And how will you do that from your straight lifestyle?
