For whatever reason, a lot of the Hawaiian males in Vegas are gay -- far more than in the average population, and also more than in Hawaii. I'm not sure why this occurred, but it might be because Vegas was a fairly gay-friendly city, long before being gay was widely accepted.
Druff, I love the radio show, and I sometimes find this forum entertaining, so I usually ignore it when you start talking about things you know nothing about... but when you post stupid shit like this...
"A lot of the Hawaiian males in Vegas are gay -- far more than in the average population, and also more than in Hawaii." I have to respond.
How would you possibly know this? Of course... You don't. How many native Hawaiians in Hawaii are gay? How did you find out?.I think it has more to wilt man tit appreciationan does not
I lived in Hawaii and other parts of the South Pacific for 25 years, so I know a little bit about the cultures. Here are a few things most of you will not care about, but a few might find interesting:
People from a particular culture can act very differently when they are living somewhere else. Hawaiians are different in California than they are on Kauai. Samoans who are peaceful and community oriented at home have a reputation for being bloodthirsty thugs in Hawaii, USA. and the NFL.
Same to some degree with Tongans.
Males in some polynesian cultures have more effeminate characteristics than we normally see in White American males. This does not mea they are "gay" or homosexual.
A couple of posts down from yours, a couple of our civics experts proclaim that "Native Hawiians are the most racist people." No... that would be you.
I'm actually surprised at who made this statement. A couple of people who I thought were better than that. There are a number of posters here who you can just laugh at 'cuz you know they're stupid, but you guys don't fall under that which makes it even more disturbing.
