Now, that's how a trained singer blows out candles! Not one gigantic puff, leaving one or two burning, but slowly going in a circle extinguishing each individually. Hahaha. Breath support! Even though I know this is going to show up on page 23/24, I have to say that I noticed that as well. I even watched it twice, I was so impressed. ;D |

Good night, Gelly!  I’d almost go as far as to say that it’s more accepted to accept homosexuality than to be homophobic, if that makes any sense. Exactly! Very well said. |

Hey, I am curious about something for our non-American friends. Do you find that tolerance is pretty widespread in your countries for gays and lesbians or is it better in big cities? I am just curious. Gays and lesbians here often face hardship while in school, and when growing up or trying to live in more rural or small town areas. Big cities are more free and tolerant of the gay lifestyle. How does it compare? PM me if you want. This is just something I have always wondered about. I'm a gay man and haven't had any homophobia directed towards me here in the UK. Most people don't think twice about it, cause at the end of the day, it doesn't matter! |

Alright, need to come back to the video for a moment: I think we sorted out the common air supply and the heartbeat on the left side of the picture vs the straight line on the right. But have we sorted out the meaning between the different ear rings. If I see it right, he has the silver, ring shaped ones on the left, the solid black ones on the right and the solid silver ones in the final frame. So besides the third being a combination of the two, which is an obvious observation, do you think that it is intention that dark Adam and hollow go together and light Adam and solid, because I am not sure that that really fits with the two personalities. But clearly the ear rings are not chosen accidentally. Furthermore: re the chessgame: I saw it more as a symbol of a chess game that was already in progress (interaction between the two persons) and that DA had undermined the game by taking some pieces off the game board, as in he is undermining his own game by his actions. Is the figure he is playing with in his hands before he throws it into the fire one of his own game pieces? Also, I thought the knight was put into play, because it is the only chess figure who can truly trespass (meaning across and over an existing line of other chess pieces). Finally, besides the shared oxygen intake and the heartbeat on the left, did we find any other elements to represent a person? And if we have the child-me on the left and parent-me on the right, we do have the heart / pomegranate symbolism on the left, but where is the brain / reasoning symbolism on the right?Just a few questions that I have not found a ton of answers around. #timetowatchthevideoagain Perhaps reading and chess? |

OT Yes, rural areas and smaller cities are difficult for gays and lesbians. The people living there tend to be more conservative and narrow-minded in every respect (not only in sexuality issues) because the social pressure is higher in a community where everyone knows everyone and everybody will hear about it if you do something unconventional that deviates the norm. We might seem to be quite tolerant people but there is still a long way to go. Eh. I live in a smaller town and it's not so hard in here. :  Glad to hear that. I come originally from a town of 24 000 people and when I visit (quite often) I have felt the pressure and have come across with some very strict opinions. I could also refer to the elections, look where the votes for the gay candidate came from and where the other was most voted (or activity percentage was low when people on the left could not get around to vote either one on the second round - for some reason). I sincerely hope that the new generation gets to live more freely and acceptance will be more widely spread because that is the true goal. |

Big cities are more free and tolerant of the gay lifestyle. How does it compare? PM me if you want. This is just something I have always wondered about. Actually this one isn't easy to answer. But it seems to me that talking about homosexuality, America is a bit small-minded country. American glamberts, don't take it as an offence, please. I have a feeling that, thank God, in my country situation is getting better but it will take much time to reach the perfection. Recently there has been a scandal because two men made a couple in the dancing competion called Let's dance. At first majority of people was like OMG, two men dancing together, that's gross and blah blah blah... But what happened next surprised me in the very positive way. Those two men made it into the semifinals. Some months ago I was watching one programme in TV. There was a story about two young lesbian girls. But to the topic, one of them said that she thought two women couples are cute, but two men not. Then I was like wtf, double standards? Is it normal when lesbians slam gays? I'm not a homosexual and tbh I used to even disdain them but thanks to Adam I completely changed my point of view on that. He actually made me a better person. Of course, like some of you mentioned, that city-village contrast is pretty obvious also in my country. OMG, my longest post ever. I'm sorry :-/ |
