Freud would have a field day with somebody reading it that way.
I had to make a couple of passes before I "got" it, myself. Anyway, you are right. Freud would have a field day. Period.

Since we're okay with trying to force Russia to permit gay rights then when are we going to do the same with every Muslim-majority country?
Why shouldn't a gay flag fly over the Kaaba in Mecca?

You go right ahead, Bart!
Just walking into Mecca ...

Best damn use of a gay flag ever. Hell I'd salute that thing while eating a cheeseburger with bacon and a glass of milk.

What exactly are 'gay rights'? I've heard of unalienable, natural, equal and civil rights... nothing about gay rights. Do I get heterosexual rights? How about synesthesia rights? Male rights? Adoptee rights?

Being allowed to marry. Not being jailed for expressing being gay. Not being discriminated against in the workplace, when renting, etc. And so on.
What rights are you as a male, heterosexual, synesthetic, adoptee being denied? If you are you should gather others of your kind and work to be extended the rights you feel you're being denied.

"gay rights" meaning gays have the same rights as heterosexuals, e.g. to marry and not be denied jobs, etc. Read a book or a newspaper or something and give up the assinine questions.

..they don`t have the meat dairy hang up that `some` Jews have

I used to race a sailboat with a Jewish guy who always gratefully accepted a nice ham sandwich, explaining: "It's okay to eat pork as long as the pig was circumcised."
ShepherdsDog @ Thu Feb 13, 2014 5:27 pm
Lots of Jews eat pork, as do a fair number of western Muslims........especially those married to cops 
Jabberwalker @ Thu Feb 13, 2014 8:19 pm
I even know a Jewish pig farmer.
Really!

Based on gold medalist Jamie Anderson's evaluation, those 100,000 free condoms may not be enough.
The 23-year-old women's slopestyle snowboarding champion told US Weekly that the use of Tinder -- a location-based dating app that's been known to facilitate casual encounters and has created more than 500 million matches in a Facematch-style "hot or not" user experience -- has reached epic proportions in Sochi.
"Tinder in the Olympic Village is next level," Anderson told the weekly magazine with a reported laugh. "It's all athletes! In the mountain village it's all athletes. It's hilarious. There are some cuties on there."
Anderson's Tinder addiction reached such a height that she quit cold turkey. "There was a point where I had to be like OK, this is way too distracting," she added. "I deleted my account to focus on the Olympics."
That didn't appear to be the case for New Zealand snowboarder Rebecca Torr, who failed to qualify for the finals in women's slopestyle. Before arriving in Russia, she made her Tinder intentions clear.
Apparently, the Olympic Village Daily quickly picked up on her tweet and distributed it as front-page news to the 7,000 athletes. By Saturday, Torr proclaimed, "Tinder is on form here in Sochi," publicly stating her desire to meet the Jamaican bobsledding team through the dating app. On Sunday, Torr finished 10th in the slopestyle competition, and a correlation between Tinder use and Olympic success began to develop.
