Our principles show be to protect all. I am gay, I believe that equality will be reached only through self sacrafice. Puto means whore, and from one whore/courtesan to another, the hardest won asset for a gay man is an education. Well I stole that from Dangerous Beauty but none the less, some of you need to wake up.

I'm gay, but in my opinion, opposing ignorance (Lopez's use of "Masputo") will only get you so far.

Plus I doubt Lopez is homophobic, so we ultimately come off as the censor police and alienate his fans as well.

The best thing to do is to create or discover something pro-gay that becomes even more popular with the masses, than the anti-gay.

Don't like Lopez's comment? Then support comedians who are on your side, make them even more popular, till the opposition is eventually forgotten.

Great!
