In the grand scheme of things British, how important is "gay history" compared to, say, the Magna Carta or the battle of Trafalgar?

"introduce pupils to sexual and swear words."

Friggen brits

Now they are teaching the swear words we would get our mouths wash out with soap for.

"Sir Ian has promoted gay rights since becoming the Met's chief. He has appointed 24 diversity advisers on £35,000-a-year salaries and spoken at gay events."

UK University major: Diversity Adviser
-guaranteed employment with the Bureaucracy

Beyond belief!

This must be a preemptive sensatizing with the expectation of some significant closet outings.

PLEEZE NOT WINSTON CHURCHILL!

As children they'll learn about the wonderful contributions of butt-worshipers to society.

As adults, they'll be learning to speak Arabic.

I already pity European kids. They'll have a very rough road ahead.

> The organisers also want historical figures labelled homosexual - even if there is no evidence they were gay.

OK. How's about these guys:

Jack the Ripper
Oswald Mosley
Al Capone
Adolf Hitler
Joe Stalin
Pol Pot
Mohammad

Hey, why not...

Shakespeare was married to Anne Hathaway wrote most of his poetry to her, had children, etc etc. Now he is outed as Gay. I have never seen evidence for that. I hate this nonsense it is the same crap that got Richard the LionHeart outed because he slept in the same bed with a man (common medieval practice in no way sexual) and because he wrote about his love for another man (another common medieval practice and not an expression of sexual love).

But organisers say where evidence of homosexuality is missing teachers should still label figures as gay.

Okay.

Jack the Ripper? Gay.

Burke and Hare? Leather boys of a longstanding relationship.

Sweeney Todd? Big maneating sissy boy.

Lord Haw Haw? Made all his broadcasts from Berlin in drag.

Oscar Wilde? Fathered children with different mothers from Edinburgh to Brighton, and was ghostwritten by a Frenchman.

This is fun. History relaly comes alive when you can rewrite it at will!

It would be cold day in Hell before I would submit my child to this sexual socialization program. We never used sexually explicit swear words or references in my home.
I do not doubt that **Namba** endorses this program.

Oh, didn't you know? Of course, he was a cross-dresser. And everyone knows about Admiral Lord Nelson(buggery on the high seas...) Not to mention Douglas Bader with his kinky missing legs engaging in same-sex S&M. Queen Elizabeth? Lesbian. Palace guards? Flaming... Charles? Need you ask? Every member of SAS...of course...the manly exterior is just a front for the feminine side of every SAS agent...

Kind of reminds me of the Team America takeoff on "Rent" where everyone has AIDS...

Among figures labelled gay is Shakespeare, of whom it is said: "It seems likely that some of the greatest love poems in the English language were written by one man to another."

Which does not, if true, make Shakespeare gay. This is a classic literary mystery - who was the "W.H." to whom Shakespeare dedicated the Sonnets in question?

It could, of course, be worse - I read a very plausible argument that "W.H." was one William Hughes, a boy actor who played Shakespeare's female roles, and who was stolen away not by another lover but by another acting company. When NAMBLA gets hold of that one you'll be reading that old Will was a pedophile as well. He isn't, of course, around to defend himself.

Franklin and Adams shared a bed on occasion...like you said, things were a bit different back then.

In Moby Dick (maybe bad example...:)-
"I told him that I never liked to sleep two in a bed; that if I should ever do so, it would depend upon who the harpooneer might be, and that if he (the landlord) really had no other place for me, and the harpooneer was not decidedly objectionable, why rather than wander further about a strange town on so bitter a night, I would put up with the half of any decent man's blanket."
