		<description><![CDATA[Why do gay mean have to be so freaking rude, disrespectful, and downright mean to each other?  It&#039;s bad enough that most of the population is antigay and makes assorted jokes.  When someone acts like a child or an idiot you should not lower yourself to their behavior also.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;And, when you get right down to it, most gay men do NOT want to be with a big ol’ nelly queen!!!&quot;

But sadly so many are nelly queens...finding a masculine hot guy is like looking for a needle in a haystack and you seek a top it&#039;s like you&#039;re looking for an ant on Mars from Earth. Maybe that&#039;s why so many gay men are single!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Some bears place importance on presenting a hypermasculine image and may shun interaction with, and even disdain, men who exhibit effeminacy.&quot;

Really? Its seems some are super masculine until they walk or open their mouths. Then it&#039;s an over-sized fur ball of femininity bouncing around like an annoying fly.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This should help Springfield Mo Bars, right from Wikipedia:
&quot;Bear is LGBT slang for those in the bear communities, a subculture in the gay/bisexual male communities and an emerging subset of LGBT communities with events, codes and culture-specific identity. It also describes a physical type.

Bears tend to have hairy bodies and facial hair; some are heavy-set; some project an image of working-class masculinity in their grooming and appearance, though none of these are requirements or unique indicators. Some bears place importance on presenting a hypermasculine image and may shun interaction with, and even disdain, men who exhibit effeminacy.[1] The bear concept can function as an identity, an affiliation, and an ideal to live up to, and there is ongoing debate in bear communities about what constitutes a bear, however a consensus exists that inclusion is an important part of the Bear Community.&quot;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nice, FrankenBerry, do you make fun of anorexics too and cancer patients too?  Obesity is a serious disease and an eating disorder, not something to be made fun of.  What gives you the right to call anyone anything? Stop taking you own inadequacies out on other people.]]></description>
