Being Politically Correct - August 14, 2008
Okay so I admit it I have a profile on Manhunt. I am not ashamed to say it, more do than are willing to admit it. I am not going to discuss the issues of Manhunt, pros vs cons, etc. However, I do find myself in a dilemma (sort of a political ethics one) as one of the co-owners of MH is a staunch republican and has donated $2300 dollars to the John McCain campagn.
Now as Towleroad notes and I quote "....Jonathan Crutchley, who is raking in millions of dollars from gay men around the world and donating some of it to help elect a presidential candidate who opposes same-sex marriage and adoption by same-sex couples, supports "Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell," and opposes ENDA. He has also also said he doesn't know whether or not condoms prevent the spread of HIV."
So my dilemma is do I take down my profile or not? If I am not a paying member am I supporting him none the less even though he is not getting my money. Does the community need to boycott MH? Obviously not everyone at MH is republican or have those same values, the other co-owner donated money to the Obama campagn granted it was only a mere $250 vs the $2300. So I throw this out to you readers, what do you think on the issue?
