Cornell students demand end to “male heterosexual” Big Red Bear mascot

The person inside the suit does not need to be male, but a controversy is brewing on campus as to whether the Bear should exhibit “male heterosexual” behavior:

[duffee]

They prefer it ti exhibit “male homosexual behavior”?

[EagleUSA]

Liberalism. And this is where parents’ tuition money is going.

What’s this about Cornhole college?

“a controversy is brewing on campus as to whether the Bear should exhibit “male heterosexual” behavior”

If the bear does exhibit heterosexual behavior he would be the only one at Cornell who does.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Holy Toledo.

Now we can’t have mascot who exhibit what might be construed as male heterosexual behavior? Some guy in a costume is bigoted if he is portrayed as male and it’s assumed he’s heterosexual????

So then, we need to have male homosexual mascots? Or “trans-gendered” mascots?????

Are lesbian female mascots permitted????

What the heck type of world are we living in? It’s a freaking mascot, someone in a costume. Why do we have to attach any “sexual” agenda to someone who is a sports team mascot???? What the heck????

What part of “shove it up your collective septic smelly Obamaholes” do those undoubtedly marshmallow majors not understand?

[onedoug]

Cornell? That bear has been queer for years now.

Where’s the Satire tag? I don’t see a Satire tag.

Last month, Samuel Naimi ’16 attended tryouts for the Big Red Bears Club, which recruits volunteers to be the Big Red Bear, Cornell’s mascot. But what club members said at the tryouts soon made Naimi, who prefers to go by the pronoun “they,” realize they might not fit the role.

We're becoming a nation of freaks.

i doubt they'd have a problem with this one...

Words of wisdom from future unemployed occupiers.

Anybody else getting sick of these homosexual perverts attacking anything normal?

[chessplayer]

The mascot needs to be gay AND lesbian AND transgendered all rolled into one. (but cannot be hetero) Plus, the person in the costume must be non-white.

Has Keith Olbermann weighed in on this yet?

[TheGipperWasRight]

You aren’t kidding. He wanted to be referred to as “they”? That used to be known as mentally ill.

What part of “shove it up your collective septic smelly Obamaholes” do those undoubtedly marshmallow majors not understand?

55% of them just smiled and now need to change their underwear.

Not the best turn of a phrase, there.

Put a tutu on it, a pair of pink ballet slippers and move on!
