| Ok, I came across something today that surprised me. Did anyone else know about the "Gay Games"? It's like olympics for gay people, and they have pairs skating. I don't have anything against gay people. I've even had gay friends. But I've never been very comfortable watching them kiss. I feel about that comfortable watching them skate together... Anyway, here is an article, and a pic of two guys in leotards doing a lift: http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/90001/90782/7091183.htmlAnd here is a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ex5rFU6pMI(sorry if anyone thinks thinks is an inappropriate, or lame thread! It's the off season. There's not a whole lot to talk about at the moment!...) | |

| I don't believe that this is a lame thread Star85
Although I have nothing against gay people just as you said i do understand why it may make you feel a little uncomfortable. I don't know if its because its something that we're not used to, but something about it doesn't sit right with me. I don't think it's "wrong" per-say but it's definitely not something i'm into. It is however great that gay people can have their own outlet without being criticized | |

| Wow, this is really interesting...I've never heard or seen it before! I think it's a good thing to have for those who want to participate, but it makes me wonder how it's judged. It has jumps and side-by-side spins like pairs, but it seems it would be difficult for a male-male pair of similar weight and stature to do any "pairs" lifts above the head. I wonder... | |
