Rules Of Conduct For Straight People
- Keep your display of affection (kissing, handholding, embracing) to a minimum. Your sexuality is unwanted and offensive to many here.
- If you must slow dance, be as inconspicuous as possible.
- Do not gawk or stare at lesbians or gay men, especially bull dykes or drag queens. We are not your entertainment.
- If you cannot comfortably deal with someone of the same sex making a pass at you, get out.
- Do not flaunt your heterosexuality. Be Discreet. Risk being mistaken for a lezzie or a homo.
- If you feel these rules are unfair, go fight homophobia in straight clubs, or:
- Go Fuck Yourself.
