I had a cop bust me twice in the one day at two beats I was about 18 he looked to be early 20s, he warned me first time, second time he sat me down for a lecture that ended up him fucking confessing about his sexual confussion and hitting on me, it was very fucking weird.

In hindsight Im guessing he volunteered for "beat" duty haha

I think its more likely that a fatwa will be launched, for what we do with out backsides, rather than making fun of their backsides

pretty much th same

i guess a number of ppl from my era would recall similar stories - and indeed, there was also a 'social' aspect to th beat culture (which has been written about in a number of articles - try journal of homosexuality, or journal of gay and lesbian social issues) - so there were times when i would turn up to a park and there'd be a cpl of ppl i know and rather than any sex it was just an opportunity to chat - which, when i was in my teens, gave me a sense of acceptance of who i was that i wasnt going to find elsewhere

beats served multi-faceted purposes in this regard, for example, and werent simply places where men met for sex although that was th premise on which they were 'founded' (cant think of a better word - thats th closest to what i mean)

and i remember listening to some of th older guys, some who would take me under their wing and offer advice etc and safety tips etc

was never bashed, nor did i ever see anyone bashed, tho i did hear about it

did have a cop question me one time when i was about 17 but liek flounders example, just got a talking to etc and was let go

thanks Sneakos Id forgotten all about the social side and thats absolutely true you would see a couple of guy you knew and go over and sit and chat (mainly about hot guys) and many times thats all it was. Got a lecture from an older guy for being there after dark on my own haha.

True, true. But then again suggesting that you would like to do to their backsides what we do with our backsides surely would only be one step down from suggesting that you would like to the same to the backside of a certain historical figure who's name I won't mention at risk of inciting more riots.

Sneaks didn't you read the title of this thread? They are all BOTTOMS.

Please don't disturb my fantasy by suggesting that some of them are tops (or even versatile) - just one top means I would have to share some of those bottoms and I'm greedy!

Are they really praying?

Because it doesnt make sense if they are - as far as I know when offering prayer, Muslims have to be CLEAN - which is why they have to perform ablution beforehand.

But in this picture, they're wearing shoes and it appears that they're praying on an uncovered ground - both the ground and the shoes are filthy, so how is this prayer, erm kosher (for lack of a better word)?

More than likely an attempted show of defiance than a legitimate prayer, although one would think given how sensitive Islam can be to this topic, they may have taken greater consideration in how they went about putting this show on.
“It's now very common to hear people say, 'I'm rather offended by that.' As if that gives them certain rights. It's actually nothing more... than a whine. 'I find that offensive.' It has no meaning; it has no purpose; it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that.' Well, so fucking what?”

They should be using their prayer rug/mat, however in circumstance where they cannot go to a mosque they are encouraged to pray in a park.

Not that there's anything wrong with that! LOL.

Well, one can only hope that not too many Christian Churches and War Memorials are vandalized by moozies again.

Is it just me, but they seem all to be rather cranky and irritable?

No they are not all cranky - just the Mogan ones.

At least this whole episode has had some positive outcome: Aussie slang has a new addition, the "Mogan" - partly Muslim, mostly bogan.
