Country Dictionary

Such rights include legal protections against discrimination in employment, housing, public accommodations and credit based soley on a person's actual or perceived sexual orientation. Currently only 15 states and the District of Columbia have such laws in effect that protect against such discrimination in the USA. That means that shamefully it's currently legal to discriminate against gays and lesbians in these areas in 35 states!!! In other words, a gay or lesbian person can be denied or fired from a job, refused an apartment or right to buy a house, be denied a hotel room, be denied service at a restaurant, or entrance to a club or credit simply because of who they are in 35 states and can't do a damn thing legally about the injustice! Technically, a heterosexual can be discriminated against too! There are no federal laws in place to protect gay and lesbian people from such discrimination. Although a bill is pending in Congress that would at least outlaw workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation, the republican controlled Congress won't allow it to come up for a vote on the floor!!! Some republicans claim we need hearings to determine the need, but refuse to hold any. Others like to point to costly frivolous lawsuits as an excuse for not supporting it, yet fail to reconcile that against their own claims that homosexuals only make up 1% of the US population! Others who make religious objections, refuse to admit that the bill provides exceptions to religious organizations! Further, passing such laws would not stifle free speech against homosexuals anymore than existing laws against religious bigotry outlaw the right to speak against religious extremism! Contrary to the assertions of right-wing religious extremists these are not special rights but an extension of civil rights that heterosexuals and other minorities take for granted. We already have laws that protect against religious bigotry, which is a choice and a benign characteristic unlike race or gender. Thus a person's choice to live openly as a homosexual should be extended the same protections under the law. In regards to homosexual relationships, gay and lesbian couples currently only have some form of legal protection of their relationships in 4 states through either marriage, civil unions or domestic partnerships. Since such arrangements are only recognized in 4 states, gay relationships have no protection in 46 states! These protections among other things offer security to the couples and promote stability!Such relationships, for example, assure that their assets won't be stolen by the family of a deceased partner upon death leaving the surviving partner in the street. Again, marriage, or whatever you wish to call it, is a right to security that heterosexuals take for granted that extends beyond procreation. Gays and Lesbians shouldn't have to incur unnecessary costs trying to provide for their partner through costly legal documents that are often challenged in court by families and invalidated!

Gay rights are human rights, not special rights!!!! Gay Americans should have some right in the USA to legally have their relationships recognized as a basic human right!

An offensive pejorative term for a low class Cuban or someone who is acting like one. Refers to the fact that Cubans like to eat black beans. Such Cubans may stink of ass gas. When they do, you can hear them coming before you see them since they tend to fart a great deal. They show little if any class and are often rude and obnoxious. They are very loud and like to draw attention to themselves. They frequently have very poor hygiene. They many not use deodorant and may wear ratty clothing. Often they are really narrow-minded and highly opinionated. You can't reason with them. Some might argue justifiably that they have little intellect or are just plain dumb. They frequently are condescending towards other Latin Americans, non-whites and non-Americans neglecting the fact that they are immigrants themselves with diverse racial backgrounds. In fact, the white Cubans see themselves as better than the non-white Cubans in general. Their arrogance typically leads them to believe incorrectly that somehow they are better than anyone else. They hate it when non-Cubans know something that they don't know because it makes them look and feel less educated and superior. Because many of them are too lazy to get a degree, they knock down people who have one thinking that they can easily step into someone's job and do it because they are Cuban. They also hate it when someone can speak Spanish better than they can especially if they are not Cuban but from some other Spanish-speaking country. It defies their airs of superiority.

Those Black Beaners woke us up, farting in chorus the Cuban national Anthemn outside our window one morning in Miami. Juan who is not Cuban, but has a job as an analyst which required a degree. Antonio, who is Cuban, doesn't have a degree. However, Antonio believes that if it weren't for the degree requirement, he could easily do Juan's job with some training. Antonio has the bad attitude of a Black Beaner. Antonio later lied his way into a job claiming skills and knowledge he didn't have, using a phony degree certificate he bought. He got interview tips from Juan in what to say which landed him the job. However, soon Antonio's arrogance and ego gave way to reality as he couldn't deliver on the job. He was fired soon thereafter. What a typical Black Beaner. A los Cuba-Lingas le gusta masturbar sus pingas, which is the same as saying that Black Beaners like to play with their weaners.

Something annoyingly referenced by religious extremists to justify in their narrow minds all the irrational, illogical, vicious and malicious things they do to other people. It is abused as a free pass like the race card to legitimize the actions of such extremists.

My faith as a good christian invokes upon me to bomb the abortion clinics in America and kill all the living inside them to save the lives of the unborn. As a muslim, my faith requires that I suicide bomb and kill innocent people to further my righteous causes. My faith as a nazi requires that I wage a racial holy war to subjugate the non-white masses and execute the Jews. America needs to wake up to the fact that in a society governed by secular laws, we cannot allow religious extremists to invoke faith as a means to bypass such laws and impose their views upon the rest of us! Intelligent design is a matter of faith and not science. It should only be taught at Sunday schools not public schools funded by tax dollars. The christian preacher called upon the US President to assasinate the leftist Venezuelan President and justified it as a matter of defending his faith from communism and America from terrorism. The christian uses the premise of faith to manipulate and scare everyone into denying gay Americans their civil rights so they can oppress and discriminate against them.

A. An Arrogant race of Spanish Speakers who mistakenly think they are superior to all other Latin Americans. They selfishly hate to see non-Cubans get ahead. Often right-wing in politics. They frequently inter-marry with white gringos to whiten their natural dark skin so they can blend into American society better, often denying their African and Indian origins. They often look down upon other Spanish-Speaking people with an air of entitlement. B. A people displaced from their natural homeland for being so arrogant and annoying to the rest of the World.

A. Don't take the condescension from Tony so personally. All Cubans are like that.

A. In the USA: A dangerous political movement dominated by right-wing conservative extremists and fanatics who use religion as a smoke-screen to intimidate, manipulate, control and hurt people and our government. They are bent on destroying our democracy and replacing it with a theocracy to have us live much like an oppressive country such as Iran where people have few if any rights and laws are dictated by religious leaders. They bully mainstream politicians much like gangsters to do their bidding and frequently take tirades when they don't get their way and make threats like in the Terri Schiavo case. B. Describes an organizaton of usually mentally unstable social terrorists or fascists who try to dupe people into believing they only are following the will of god to justify their atrocious actions. They seek to take away your civil rights or deny them to you by manipulating the Republican party, through special legislation in Congress, amending state and federal constitutions, by manipulating the courts or pushing for ballot initiatives to decide your rights when all else fails. Their tactics and goals are much like the Nazi party's in Germany during WWII in regards to the Jews except they can't get away with mass murder here or establish concentration camps for groups they marginalize and detest. At least not yet. C. Something that oppresses and marginalizes. Something that is intolerant. Something that imposes itself on your life like it or not. Something that is often in your face and shoved down your throat. Something that typically shows little if any compassion, love, respect or care for people that are different. D. A religion whose followers mistakenly think they can invoke as an excuse to justify their actions against other people. They arrogantly believe their faith in itself trumps anything else including your privacy, civil rights or saftey. It's followers often use select bible passages to hurt others and justify their obnoxious behavior! E. A religious movement of fanatics that thinks it can justify bombing abortion clinics or gay bars and killing innocent people in the name of faith much like a Muslim may think their faith justifies sucide-bombings that kill innocent people for different political reasons. They often like to scapegoat people. They pretend to fight for democracy while actually doing everything in their power to destroy or undermine it. They want people to be tolerant of them but refuse to tolerate anything or anyone that they claim is against their religious beliefs. Everthing is Black and white to them. There is no compromise. They often try and justify their actions as freedom of religion and free speech while doing all in their power to stifle the free speech of people that disagree with them.

Christianity threatens our democracy by its followers attempts to replace it with a theocracy of the religious elite. The Neo-nazis, KKK and militia men call themselves followers of christianity and use it to justify the horrific acts they commit against racial minorities, Jews and gays. Hitler said he was like Jesus, a messiah of christianity fighting against the communists and Jews in Europe and the world. He subsequently murdered millions while many church leaders including the pope looked the other way to appease the Nazis and keep their power. The fanatical christian preacher and his followers callously picketed the funeral of a gay man that was murdered holding up signs that read...GOD HATES FAGS and SODOMITES BURN IN HELL...all while the dead man's family and friends looked on in disgust and disbelief. A fine example of christianity and its compassion for others. Christianity is responsible for the deaths of many people often women burned as witches who threatened the male-dominated hierarchy of the church! Jews and Muslims who refused to convert or were accused of practicing their relgion in secret after converting to christianity were frequently tortured, forced into exile or murdered! Homosexuals were frequently murdered by the church. Burning them at the stake was the typical form of execution because of the intolerance, ignorance and lack of compassion of christianity! The Knights Templar were murdered by the Pope and a European king for practicing homosexuality but in reality the murderers feared their power and wanted their gold!

Is an anorexic gay male who may or may not be attractive. Twinks are highly effeminate and can be quite obnoxious and annoying. They go out of their way to get attention from others and whine about stupid things thinking it's funny. They often talk trash about other people and are obsessed with superficial things like fashion. They love to shave their armpits, crotches and butts. They often act like vicious girls in high school. They are a sad stereotype of the gay male. Twinks come in all races,not just white anymore.

The Twink started to whine that the taste in his bubble gum had gone away making it a point to have everyone in the room be aware of it and going on about ad nauseaum. The twink maxed out all his credit cards in order to be able to buy Prada shoes just so he could brag about the fact that he had the latest Prada to everyone even though he could not really afford it. We were grossed out by all the Twinks on the dance floor spilling everyeone's drinks as they flapped their arms and who did not stop to apologize to anyone for it. They weren't even drunk yet laughed as they saw the drinks spill over the clothes of others. We saw gaysian (asian gays) twinks while in San Francisco. They were just as repulsive as the white kind. The Twinks made a spectacle of themselves in Victoria's Scret looking at women's underwear and howling while everyone else in the store looked in shock and horror.
