http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/word-games-and-others/which-of-the-2-aay-is-more-prone-to-homosexuality/t.72899577/
So I was cruising the Word Games subforum, and came across this thread. It really disgusted me because of the way it's worded. "Prone to homosexuality." I don't necessarily know what the OP intended the thread to be like (a bash on homosexuals overall, or a playful game), but I personally take offense. The fact that he used 'prone' as one of the words in question really irks me. Prone carries a negative connotation, as if those who are homosexual are ill or diseased/infected. You can't be prone to homosexuality, you just are gay/bi/whatnot. I tried getting the attention of some moderators, but I have yet to receive a reply.
What do you guys think about the matter? :
