All things English/American
I thought I would start this thread in the hope this English butchie can learn a bit about your culture and you can mine ..
For example :: It has always interested me, can you be gay in every state or can you still be arrested and gay clubs raided ?

One can be gay in every state, its just that there are some states more "tolerant" and gay-friendly than others. Actually...even in tolerant states, there can be areas where it can be dangerous to be openly gay. Sigh...sad but true. I've not heard of gay clubs being raided and arrests being made solely for being gay. I suppose they still are...but I think its done more under another pretense now.

No. Kinda a good question there. About the same as us asking if Spotted Dick is really meat. A corndog, typically purchased at an event such as a fair, is a regular ole hotdog with a sweet corn breading dip and deepfry. Eaten with mustard or mayo or both. Okay now don't tell me Google spotted Dick..wth is it ?

Lmao I haven't had spotted dick since a child (that sounds wrong lol)
It's sponge pudding with Currants in, can be eaten with custard,cream or ice cream .. It's the kind of food your granny makes,you don't tend to hear of it much these days unless you go to ye olde English pubs lol.

More specifically spotted dick is a rolled suet pudding with, as Merlin, says, dried fruits and most often served with custard.

Welcome to the site Merlin. You can also buy corn dogs that are vegetarian at a very popular chain grocery store here in some of the states, Trader Joes.

I love a good corn dog. Yummy. As far as the Eagle raid in Atlanta, the APD found out that things like that are stupid and expensive. I do not think we will be seeing anymore jonny law dumbass moves there anymore.

I am wondering if the raid at the Atlanta Eagle (in 2009) was more about BDSM than about gay. The combination could be irresistable to a prosecutor or the police. We need changes in federal and state laws to protect those of us who are kinky/leather folks from harrassement and jail time. At IMsL (International Ms Leather) this year, petitions were passed around for signatures to actually put something in a CA proprosed crime bill to ensure consensual behavior was exempted from the law. |

Wow...sorry for the derail, but I never realized that this was an issue. I'm stunned that these activities (when consensual, of course) can still get someone in serious legal trouble. Just sitting here like this

Mostly in the summertime, like here.
London's is the last weekend of June (usually the same weekend as NYC & SF pride), Brighton's is in August. They usually have a big parade, followed by a rally, followed by a festival with live music etc.
