Exodus In The Making ?

For the last 10 years, FuelMix has been observing Fagland in World Class City and telling fags that their days there were numbered. The changing urban landscape and the demographics of Fagland would eventually result in Fagland being watered down to become more mainstream, or worse, fags and Fagland would eventually have to relocate away from the downtown core.

Needless to say, FuelMix received considerable abuse for having the temerity to make such comments and was repeatedly accused of being homophobic.

Last night, the local news on World Class City TV, reported on the apparent “plight” of residents in Fagland: creeping urban re-development, yuppification, and swankier high-rises were resulting in rent increases of 100% or more in the older buildings. Fags and others were squealing in pain.

To those unfamiliar with the demographics of World Class City’s Fagland, it consists of 4 distinct economic groups – none of which have any real purchasing power: fags, foreign language students, the elderly living on pensions and recent Eastern European immigrants, most of whom came in as refugees.

Many of the existing high-rises are 40 years old and owned by absentee landlords. The location may be fabulous, but the buildings aren’t, even though some have been tarted up. The landlords are no fools. They’ve been watching the buoyant real estate market downtown and are imposing massive rent increases or, selling out to developers.

Either way, it’s the fags and the rest of the demographics who will lose. Many fags are sharing with roommates, hold 2 jobs at clerical or retail level, blow their cash on drink and drugs and constantly shift accommodation within Fagland looking for a better deal.

They may finally have to shift out.

Man Sex Without Being Gay ?

There are some men out there who will apparently do anything to differentiate themselves from being labelled “gay” or “fags”. Most of the time it’s the generic “straight but bi-curious” moniker that is intended to make any fag in the vicinity realize that the dude in question, couldn’t possibly be a fag, since he’s just experimenting.

Yeah, right.

Then there are those who engage in label-separation to such a degree, that it just seems odd. Case in point: those that describe themselves as “g0ys”. Their defining characteristic? Absolutely no anal sex. It’s just laughable..you’re not gay because you don’t have anal sex? What would you call men who fuck women in the ass? Not straight?

Then there’s the Man2Man Alliance who describe themselves as “a coalition of gay, bi and straight-identified men who practise frot phallus-to-phallus sex who reject anal penetration, promiscuity and effeminacy among men who have sex with men……..”

OK..FuelMix rejects promiscuity too, especially when there’s supposed to be a committed relationship. But think about that mission statement: if you’re practising frot cock-to-cock sex with other men, what the hell gives you the right to say you’re not promiscuous?

And the rejection of effeminacy? OK, granted, there are fags out there that are just way too fem. But where do you draw the line? FuelMix suspects that this purported rejection of “effeminacy” is in fact an attempt to erase gay labels such as “Top” and “Bottom”.

Perhaps both groups should be praised for having the guts to put out some kind of manifesto. But god, they're so fuckin’ hilarious.
