As to all the comments re secret gays beating up on gays, how does that tally with those disgusting **** who beat a poor Goth girl to death. Were they secret Goths?? I don't think so, they are just hate filled morons.

There was once a meet in Manchester of some members of the predecessor to Cable Forum - we went out to the bars in Cable Street & it was one of the best nights out I have had, great music, fantastic atmosphere - and, as far as I can remember, no more overt affection than you'd expect from hetero couples in a similar environment.
I have worked with several 'gay' people, male & female, who were confident enough to be honest about their sexuality. They could be just treated as colleagues once that was 'out of the way' & the whole thing was much easier.
Why anyone could kill another person for being different in any way, be it Goth, Emo, Hippy, Biker - etc, etc, is a mystery to me ...
