A teenager in Athens, Georgia successfully fought of a trio of anti-gay peers. The thugs reportedly punched the teen in the head after calling him some homophobic epithets. They also tried to steal his “purse,” but the kid held onto it until the danger passed. Ain’t no separating some boys from their bags! [Athens Banner-Herald>]

We Georgia gay boys don’t put up with shit! My ex and i had to whip some ass in Savannah one night after getting bashed. Not usually a fighter but it did feel damn good.

Some of the people I admired the most in San Francisco, on the streets,when I lived there were the gueens. I was coming home one night from an all nuigght place and we got jumped by a group of thugs-She carried a 12inch scissors and went after them-chasing them down the street .Possibly saving our lives. Big guys too.
It was not that uncommon for guys who worked out to beat the daylights out of bashers.

Gays used to be such ass kickers. What happened to us? Kudos to this young man for showing the rest of us how it’s done.

This is another example of why I state that every gay man should know self-defense + (as a bonus) carry a stun gun at all times, where legal.
And know how to use it.

It really is true! remember when people carried whistes and took self defense classes. People don’t get in good physical shape much. But a lot of it is psycological.
I often carried some sort of weapon; In any case you can always grab something.
But there is a problem having something to do with deteriorating community and self esteem.
