The policy within Family First is to "bash" gays, but not too loudly at election time. She should have asked him to prove he wasn't a paedophile.

How can a woman be gay?

Thanks for the education alanocu.

I think retorting with "prove you're not a pedofile" would, unfortuantely equate homosexuality with pedefilia. How about "Prove you're not a wanton pornographer." I'm sure there's something on his computer, somewhere. The point being it's none of our business whether she's homosexual or not.

"Voters may not give a rats if a candidate is gay," he told The Courier-Mail. "But they have a right to know who you'll bat for."

Statements like this are entirely designed to instil a fear in would be voters that all a gay candidate is interested in, is promoting things gay.
