Title: Sexual Orientation?
Post by Grafwick on Jan 8th, 2008, 9:35pm
Does anyone know of any studies that may link sexual orientation to CH?  Curious as I'm gay and have had episodic CH since a teenager (that's for over 40 years).  BTW, episodes last 8 wks, with 2-3 years remission.  Verapamil and predisone as preventative, cafergot  hot tea and topical ice as needed as treatment works pretty well for me.  I really feel for those who have not found successful treatment.

No, I don't know of any studies that address that.

It would surprise me to discover that there was any relationship, though.  The people here are pretty much across the board as far as sexual orientation goes--gay, straight, bi.....there's even a fellow who seems to have a latex fetish, and a taste for circus midgets.   ;)

Best,

George

We tend to have higher sex drives than normal people.  As far as orientation goes.......... dunno about that one.

Ask anyone on the board... most of us have gone to sleep after dancing with the beast... have woken up to a beast ... I'd say we were tilting toward bestiality if anything.

  Nope, seems to me that it's mostly Heterosexual folks that get CH.  And then there is the one guy who loves Chinese Circus Midgets and Latex. But I'm no expert.

If Homoerotecism counts, I'm more interested in masterbation after a hit, because I know how to do it right....

Seriously, though, the answer is NO.  Genetically, studies have shown some correspondence for some people to parents with clusters OR Migraines, and have shown that clusters are due to overgrowth of grey matter in an area of the hypothalmus.  I've never seen a single study relating them to sexual orientation.

However, I did just read that eating and drinking soy products was making all if our kids gay.  Maybe that causes both?

Oh there are more than one.  I personally, think the percentage is pretty high.  Not complaining.  Doesn't mean nothin'.  I don't care what folks do as long as it makes 'em happy and nobody's gettin' hurt.

Ha!  No reason at all - I figured you weren't, but your responses to idiots make me LMAO, so I figured I'd play the idiot and bait you.  You didn't take the bait.

But Jonny did.

Not that there's anything wrong with being bait, or an ass.hole, or a Chinese circus midget, or Crappy.

I thought at first the poster wasn't serious, 'cause he's basically saying "I'm gay, and I have this disease, so maybe they are related."  I don't know many Gays who think of being Gay as a disease, or related to disease, so it struck me as possibly insincere.

Anyway, I was coming off a kip 9 and in a state of mind my wife calls pain drunk, and thought it would be funny, but I apologize - not funny.  Ass.hole is an apt description.

Still, I wonder where the original poster is, and if the post was serious or a plant.

I'll look him up in my 2008 Gay directory (for those of you who don't know... it's a closely guarded secret that if you are gay... you receive the gay directory which lists everybody of your orientation.)
OOOPS! Damn... I've seemed to misplace the non disclosure agreement (NDA) I signed at birth which prohibits me from telling ANYONE!

there goes 50 princess points... sheesh those queens can be so strict.

I guess that was kind of my point, but it was a stupid joke, and reading it now Jonny's right - I just sounded like an ass.hole.  

Potter's comments always make me laugh my a$$ off, so I thought that would get some epic comedy out of him, but at the time I was coming off of a kip 9 and in a state of mind my wife calls "pain drunk."

Sincerest apologies to Potter, didn't mean anything by it.  Whether he likes circus midgets or not, not that I care either way, because its none of my business.

Honestly, I was suspicious of the sincerity of the original poster, because they basically said, "I'm gay, and I have this disease, are they related?"  I don't know of many gay people thinking ofbeing gay in terms of disease, so the post seemed suspect.

In penance for my sin, I've temporarily changed my name to "Crappy."  Thanks for the idea, Jonny.  The humiliation will do me some good  ;;D.  My original apology to Potter was sincere, and I appreciate how he handled it - hope there aren't any hard feelings there.

I don't know what DJ would think of it, but he put the word "Newbie" under my screen name, so maybe he'd warn me not to make any more newbie mistakes like that, and then let you take off your shirt and spank me with the fish from Potter's screen picture.

I'm glad you have $500, and I'm sure DJ appreciates the service you provide here handing out new ass.holes to newbies that cross the line, like you did to baseball coach when you totally misunderstood him (at least I deserved it).

I've got plenty of extra flesh on my ample body for a few more ass.holes if you want to keep reaming me new ones.  I just can't help now but think if John G. from Adron, OH really is real, and comes back to read this thread -  :o.  Oh, well, at least I didn't start the talk about circus midgets.

Title: Re: Sexual Orientation?
Post by Crappy on Jan 12th, 2008, 4:44am
Oh, crap.  I just graduated from Newbie to Junior with those last two posts.  I swear it said Newbie when I started, so my original plea should still be valid.

Future infractions shall, of course, fall under Junior rules, and Jonny may spank me with two fishes (with my pants down).

Edit: Jonny, if playground rules apply to this forum, you may PM DJ yourself and ask him to tell me I'm a fucking idiot.  I'll stop spamming the forum now.  (I just looked up spamming in my newly acquired Junior handbook).

OMG that is classic!!!!!
It goes along with the directions I was provided on how to let people know I am Jewish.
1) step on left big toe-
2) horns should appear instantaneously
3) pinch nose until it honks
4) tail should appear
5) tattoo on forehead appears saying I control all money and will eat your children

I deserve that - the original post was homophobic, using "you're gay" as a joke.  I apologized already, and sincerely.  Truly sorry to be on your shit list, or anyone else's.

Not usually.  After Jonny called another newbie an ass.hole and threatened deletion of his profile for asking an honest question (http://tinyurl.com/288hn9), I pegged him as a hotheaded bully, who didn't have the decency to apologize after alienating a new member to make him feel more at home, and I've never been able to keep my mouth shut with people like that.  While I've pissed plenty of friends of Jonny's off here, I know of a few privately who've wanted to tell Jonny to shut the f*** up.  As a Newbie myself, I didn't realize he's a friend of DJs, so I'll take Potter's advice now and shut up myself.

Try looking at reply #5, Dickhead!

If Coach had accepted my offer it would have been regulator #29 that I had paid for and shipped to someone I dont even know.

Alright, you have my apology for misjudging your character - honestly.  That really was a great gesture.  I don't know if that gave you the right to jump down his throat later and call him an ass.hole for asking a question about the effectiveness of O2, but I'm living in a glass house on this thread so I won't throw stones.

Shall I change my screen name to Dickhead for awhile now, or do you want to call big bro to delete me, or can I sneak away to lick my wounds in peace?

It is better to keep your mouth shut and be thought an idiot than to open it and remove all doubt.

If you want to shut up, read and get the hang of being here and then start posting again - please do so.

If you want to carry on being a complete and utter arse, then be my guest.

If you want advice on CH or why your dose of verap may be ineffective for you or how to use pred then either read through threads or bloody well ask!

I have three kids already. I don't need mindless drivel here. Not on the meds boards at any rate.


Oh and its MISS Bitch to you.
