An Early AM Question

[deelaundry]

Do you think the male nurse House spoke to in episode 6-8 (the Thanksgiving ep) was gay? Why or why not?

I know some people on my f-list thought the male nurse House spoke to in episode 6-8 (the Thanksgiving ep) was gay. If you thought this, what specifically made you think it?

Linking Onewayfreak to the article was snotty. Jumping into the middle of your conversation with Onewayfreak was particular snotty.

What conversation was Onewayfreak derailing? She was the one engaged in the conversation with Zulu, and Usomitai was the one jumping in the middle.

What conversation was Onewayfreak derailing? She was the one engaged in the conversation with Zulu

Just to explain, I thought she was derailing Zulu's attempts to explain her concerns by saying that her concerns were not appropriate ("If the queer community spent all their time arguing semantics with people who have completely innocent intentions, nothing would ever get done" and "But please, fight gay bashing and oppression of civil rights first, then come back and deal with whatever presumed problem you see in a wonderfully tolerant woman's semantics").

I linked to the article because I do not know Onewayfreak and did not know if she would be familiar with the term "derailing". In retrospect, I should've chosen a better link that was more explanatory and less snarky; I was upset and forgot to check the nature of the link before using it.

But please, fight gay bashing and oppression of civil rights first, then come back and deal with whatever presumed problem you see in a wonderfully tolerant woman's semantics.

This kind of statement is a commonly used one, often meant to imply that the other persons' questions/statements/concerns are pointless at best, harmful at worst.
