MacDailyNews - Where Mac news comes first

Booooozzzzeeeeee!!!

Perhaps we Mac users are simply the type to take being called "gay" as a compliment. I'm not gay, but I often wish I were.

wow... Just wow.

Come on MDN this crap should not have been posted.

Are all Windoze users mongoloid, or do they just behave that way?

Well, obviously TowerTone is gay, so ...

clearly Bill Gates is the personification of well hung manliness.
He's leaving Microsoft to go into action movies.

I'd add if anyone is interested in Porn (i.e. mostly heterosexual males) the mac is their best bet - plenty of excellent media apps, and low risk of catching a virus.

No, please, no: sex everywhere. I hate Macsex & Macdailysex.

I am gay! as in I am happy & gay.....Time was when you were described as being a gay person meant that you were a happy person.

Mac users are a happy lot!!! So by default they are gay!!!

PC user are a grey lot! comes from the constant worrying caused by a unstable OS.

Would you rather be GAY or GREY?

Im sure that while the majority of gays prefer mac, not there's anything wrong with that, the majority of Mac users is most certainly straight. When I think if all the folks I know that use Macs I can only think of a only few that are, or seem, gay.

MDN, you have published a ton of stupid articles in the past, but this has to be the worst. By the way, I am a Mac user, and a "gun grabber".

Ahem.........Drink Camel's Milk, you will quickly realize that we all have two arse holes.......One for farting through! The other PC users who gripe about Mac users!!!!!

I'm gay. Is anyone looking for a date? I blow well.

The gay Mac thing is an American (and maybe UK) thing.
Here in Europe they don't make those comments.

Here in Holland they think you have a lot of money if you have an iMac.

I also like to wear women's underware so...

I was a happy and *very* active heterosexual man and purchased my first PowerBook 5 years ago. Shortly there after I bought several pairs of shoes (weekend, work, and deck. I am now gay gay gay and will never go back. Thank you Steve Jobs, I want to take a bite out of your apple.

This is a great question. Actor John Wayne was one of the first Mac customers way back in 1984 and everybody knows he was gay. Idaho Senator Larry Craig clearly isn't gay and he doesn't use a Mac.

That should answer the question.

Mac users are gay...as in happy. Happy that we are not using WinDOH!s...

MW=mass...as in I got mass off Windows ASAP...

Next to comment this no-news is a little Ballmer

I'm gay, but I have many straight male friends who own Macs. It just took them a long time to come around.

Omfg, no you didn't.

BobM, you're a little gay Ballmer

This has to be the most irrelevant post ever to appear on this website.

This article is DEAD ON. People who hate inanimate objects will go to great lengths to ridicule people who use said objects. They will project until time's end about how "THOSE people are X or Y or Z" with nothing but their own biases and irrational hatreds to back it up. Often, the people who feel such a strong need to hate and deny the freedom of others have deep-rooted psychological issues.

For the gun-grabbers, it's the inability to trust.

For the IT drone, it's the fear of losing his job.

For the Muslim, it's just freedom.

The question is so absurd, so insipid, and so silly that I'm loathe to even bother answering it.

I mean really, if someone actually asked the question, then he could be loathe about it, but nobody asked it. The author presented the question in his headline and didn't say that anyone actually asked it, so why would he need to answer a question that doesn't exist, unless you make up the question yourself for the sake of being disgusted by it. Am I missing something?

How scared are PC Guys getting. MAC USERS ARE FAGS or WOMEN?? Going along that line of thought all PC Users Pull SNOT from their noses and eat it. Tiger makes VISTA look like a popcorn fart. Leopard is an order of magnitude better than TIGER. Might as well cal Vista, ME 2.

Apple = Better Hardware, Software, User Experience, Security etc.

Microsoft = F*** You Gimmy your money!

BustingTheSkullsOfIdiots is gay and he uses a Mac too, just like Mary Cheney and Senator Larry Craig.

Keep fighting for freedom, BustingTheSkullsOfIdiots. We're behind you all the way, just like your lover.

Hum. I think that idea came from the fact that Gay people are usually around gorgeous things. The nice house, the nice clothes, the nice car... The nice computer = a mac.

This is the stupidest post I've ever seen on this site. Seriously. You've got to be kidding me.

So what does it mean if I hate inanimate PCs?r

I'm very, very gay and I am a Mac user.

In my experience gay men and women tend to be smarter than the average neanderthal straight men. Since intelligent people are more likely to use a Mac, a larger percentage of gay men than straight men are likely to be Mac users. However, if you compare them as just total numbers and not weighted percentages, there are certainly more straight men who use Macs than gay men since gay people only make up 10% of the population.

I'm a European heterosexual alien living in France who discovered the only valuable consumer product on this strange planet....an iMAC....Is this good stuff for another bs article written by some "journalist" who has nothing else to do? Gay, yellow, hetero, black, fat, white, thin, green, ...who cares?

I have at least a dozen Macs so, I guess I must be really gay.
I think that in the early days the majority of people using Macs were creative types that were in the graphic and music profession so just because you have god forbid a little flair or personality you are typecast as being a homosexual.

I have no issues with gay people but , if they happen to choose a better computer than the rest of the sheep out there more power to them.

Lets stop the witch hunt you IT (Insecure & Terrified) guys.

Hey Sailor! Ready to go ashore?

This is so stupid I shouldn't even comment it.

If fact, I'll just state it's plain stupid.

I'm an heterosexual, and I love my Mac. My brother is heretosexual too and loves his Mac. I have a friend who is gay and also loves his Mac. What's the difference? We ALL love the Mac because it's an awesome product.

(I was going to say "You know what would be REALLY gay? A pink Zune!", but I don't want to offend all the smart gay people I know)

To qjkqqq:

Being called gay is not a compliment you idiot.

MDN: there must be a better story to post on a Friday afternoon.

Goofball IT Drone got it wrong. It's only all Republicans that are gay, closeted yes but gay just the same.

Wow! It never even crossed my mind that using a Mac was gay?!?

Having thought about it, perhaps the traditional association with graphic arts, has this ignoramus comingling Mac users with gays. I wouldn't at all be surprised if more gays used Macs, though Dell is now offering laptops in cute colors, not Apple.

"There's a good lad, just throw another faggot on the fire".

Always note what gay guys are doing, we have the money and we shop smart! So of course we buy apple computers, gays guys are smarter and know a good deal when they see one.
(this is typed from my mac pro book on wireless internet, in the public wash room while tapping my foot)

gay or not, i think this author needs apple to start making 'genitalia drives' to place inside the mac so you can make sweet love to apple all day.

I think the deciding factor in the Mac vs. PC debate is not your sexual preference, but your intelligence level.

If you've got an ounce of sense, you'll quickly grasp that you get what you pay for (no prostitution pun intended).

Mac users get that...PC users may NEVER get it.

Peace.

Slow day?

I think mac geeks are hot (well most of them!)

"I think that in the early days the majority of people using Macs were creative types that were in the graphic and music profession so just because you have god forbid a little flair or personality you are typecast as being a homosexual."

please stop spreading the myth that straight men have personalities.....

That people use "gay" as an insult is precisely why I absolutely despise that "X is so gay" saying that people have been using. And those people have the nerve to claim it has nothing to do with gay people. Bullshite.

Even after reading the article, as well-intended as it seems to be, I'm still miffed. There's an implicit "gay = effiminate = unmanly" bias through the whole thing. I have gay friends who could intimidate the crap out of a Hell's Angel, and others who have a bolt of chiffon drop out of their mouths when they speak. Whoop-de-freakin'-do. I love my friends either way. I kinda fall in the middle, just a regular guy who happens to be gay, like most of the guys I know.

IMO, the only response to this "Goofball IT Drone" person is, "You're an asshat." But maybe he'll read the article and be embarassed when he recognizes himself in it. And maybe, other people who think the same or similar things will be a little embarrassed, too.

Meh. So is Conservative GOP Congressmen.



You know what, I hear George W. sure likes his iPod....


That would explain Jeff Gannon.

"please stop spreading the myth that straight men have personalities....."

LMFAO! ! !

(I usually lease mine. It's cheaper.)

PC'S ARE FOR FART-HUFFERS AND MACS GET YOU LAID!!!!

Gaygaygaygaygay.

Gay.

The end.
