Maybe we are getting to Porno Petey

Peter LaBarbera is on another one of his crusades about bondage events:

BREAKING STORY — Columbus, Ohio Holiday Inn Hotel Hosts ‘Winter Wickedness’ Perversion-Fest

But this one is different.

LaBarbera is generally known for attending gay subcultural events (such as Folsom Street Fair), taking pictures of the most outrageous things he sees there, and then describing the events as indicative of the entire lgbt community.

So imagine my shock when I see that the event he has attacked this time (wait for it) has absolutely nothing to do with lgbts.

I kid you not. This alleged Winter Wickedness Perversion Fest seems to be strictly heterosexual.

Will wonders ever cease? And it brings up two points.

In the past, when Peter went on his jags about "homosexual perversion," he was accused of unfairly targeting the entire lgbt community. He would never talk about heterosexual subcultural events.

You think maybe he has taken the criticism to heart?

And one other thing. When talking about Folsom Street Fair and the like, he would use the events to generalize about the alleged perversions of homosexuality - thereby inferring that what he took pictures of was indicative of all lgbts, including those who have never attended Folsom Street Fair or any gay subcultural event.

His commentary today was free of such generalizations about the alleged "radical heterosexuals" or how heterosexuals are behind the "perversion of America."

It's an important point to remember when Peter does in fact try to use another gay subcultural event to stigmatize the entire lgbt community.

His article almost reads like an advertisement for the event!

Perhaps Peter should show up and take some pictures for his collection.

I am NOT going there, anonymous. LOL

Just what possesses him to throw out unneccessary details? Who knows.

His own lurid nature, and that of his readers. They claim to be disgusted but you know they're enjoying every last drop of it. It's much the same way they claim to detest gay sex yet obsess about it more than any gay man I've ever known.
