Homophobic group wants to see a "real man" as school board member of Sunnyside

Flyers are being spread about Tucson, Arizona by a group that wants to recall openly gay Sunnyside District School Board Member Daniel Hernandez, Jr.

Along with a picture of Hernandez, the flyer says this:

"Put a REAL Man on the Sunnyside Board

(picture)

Daniel Hernandez is LGBT

We need someone who will support Sports and cares about our kids.

We don't need someone who hates our values

RECALL Daniel Hernandez TODAY"

Yes, because all gay men hate sports and don't care about kids, especially those whom are school board members. Also, to hate sports is to not care about kids apparently.

I think this group may be confused on what LGBT stands for. It would have made sense to have stated that Hernandez is gay or that he is LGBT-friendly, but it's impossible for anyone to be LGBT. Daniel Hernandez may be a lot of things to a lot of people, but he's not a lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender.

The headline of the flyer I found to be both hilarious and infuriating. I'm sorry, but trying to imply that a gay man isn't a "real man," while juxtaposing "real man" and "Sunnyside" I found to be quite amusing. While this group is at it, they should protest the name of the school and suggest they change it to something like "Guns and Ammo," "Grunt," "Big Junk," or "Magnums For All the Criminals and the Hos."

So, what makes a "real man," anonymous homophobic group? Let me guess, wanting to place one's love wand inside a woman does the trick, right? Well, they can believe whatever they wish, but in my opinion, a "real man" won't tear down another due to their sexual orientation. Segueing from that, if this group truly wants to see a "real man" on the school board, they'd be the first ones crossed off the list. Daniel Hernandez, Jr. is more of a "real man" than these imbeciles will ever be.

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i...
