So your son's lax team has openly gay players. [b]Not that I know of. The gay classmates don't play lacrosse.[/b]

Have you ever thought for 1 second, your son's team is not the same as every other team in the world. [b]I don't think there is anything unusually tolerant about my son or his classmates. If they couldn't care less if someone is gay, no reason to think that is not representative of high school athlete attitudes in this area.

Also, have you ever thought for one second that the whole world does not revolve around whether or not lacrosse &quot;welcomes&quot; gay players?  :roll: [/b]  [/quote][/quote]

1. So again you can’t name 1 openly gay player which means men playing lacrosse choose not to be out. There is a reason for this.

2. You are saying your son’s environment is no different than rural areas when it comes to acceptance of gay children. Are you dense?

3. Nobody is asking “the whole world” to do anything. OP is asking if there are any openly gay children on lacrosse teams and how are they treated. You don’t know so you can’t really say.[/quote]

1. I can't name any openly gay players because my son has not told me there are any. The &quot;reason for this&quot; is he doesn't care, and I don't either.

2. My son's environment is an extremely liberal suburban one, dumb$h!t. If openly gay kids wanted to play lacrosse and were good at it, the other kids on the team would not care that they were gay.

3. The OP is crying like a girl because he wants the world to change so that lacrosse is &quot;welcoming&quot; so that his son won't be sad.[/quote]

Sounds like your son wouldn't tell you because you complain about someone &quot;crying like a girl&quot;  Maybe your misogyny and homophobic bent (&quot;...if openly gay kids....and we're good at it...as if they can't be gay and good) will skip a generation. For your sons sake I hope it does.[/quote]

Nah, he would tell me. He knows that I don't care what any lacrosse player does off the field so long as they play well on the field.

homophobic bent (&quot;...if openly gay kids....and we're good at it...as if they can't be gay and good)  &lt;-- You are very stupid as well as deliberately dishonest.

No lacrosse team is going to &quot;welcome&quot; an openly gay player [i]just because[/i] they are gay. They will welcome any player, regardless of sexual orientation, who is a good player. Nothing about my remark excludes the possibility that a player could be both gay [i]and [/i]good at lacrosse. Therefore your response is stupid and dishonest.

Now go away and cry like a girl.[/quote]

I feel like I must have struck a nerve.  Is it that perhaps your son is gay and maybe you deep down know it but he's afraid to tell his homophobic dad because he would send him to his room to cry like a girl?  [/quote]
