I don't know about you, Andrew Dear, but you still seem to think that there
is something negative about what you term stereotypical gay behaviour. I think
what others are trying to say here is that acceptance of gay people will not
suddenly make the flamers vanish. Why should they - they're probably having a
marvelous time. Would you expect all the nuances of black culture to disappear
if blacks were 100% accepted by our society ? How about the Asians ? Mexicans ?
Tierra Del Fuegans ? Really now...I myself enjoy a well-placed flame, especially
when the BP (Breeding Public...thanks Owen) needs their comfortable little
cages rattled. After all, if I didn't, some might think me part of that 
invisible faction you spoke about...quiet and assimilated into straight
society. Imagine.
