  54. 1:16>> I think that is a American
  55. 1:20>> You know I have no
  56. 1:21>> I actually TO BE HONEST, I DON'T KNOW.
  57. 1:23BUT LISTEN.
  58. 1:23>> WE'RE CELEBRATING SOMETHING YOU HAVE NO
  59. 1:25IDEA WHAT YOU'RE CELEBRATING. [laughter]
  60. 1:27>> IN THE INTEREST OF PRIDE, I'LL TELL you
  61. 1:29what it is.
  62. 1:29>> Oh, great.
  63. 1:29>> They say that two-spirit was this
  64. 1:32ancient Native American sexual identity,
  65. 1:35but it's not actually. It was invented
  66. 1:37in 1990.
  67. 1:39>> Knowles know this and you guys
  68. 1:40>> Because I'll tell you exactly why.
  69. 1:41Because
  70. 1:42Because Michael is more obsessed with
  71. 1:44gay people than even I am, and I sleep
  72. 1:47with men. That's why Michael knows what
  73. 1:49they say.
  74. 1:49>> We always get We social conservatives,
  75. 1:51we're always accused of being obsessed
  76. 1:53with these issues. And I say, "Hey, no,
  77. 1:54no, no, listen."
  78. 1:55>> I I didn't invite myself to sit here and
  79. 1:57talk about this with you.
  80. 1:58>> I'll tell you I'll tell you how we won't
  81. 1:59talk about it anymore. I like the way
  82. 2:01things were before Pride Month. I like
  83. 2:03the way things were for years with the
  84. 2:05with men go to the men's bathroom, women
  85. 2:06go to the women's. People kind of be
  86. 2:08quiet if they're
  87. 2:08>> with gay marriage?
  88. 2:10>> Uh no, before that. I'm happy
  89. 2:11>> Oh, you want to go all the way back? You
  90. 2:12want to go all the way back?
  91. 2:13>> Yeah, to like 2015. Yeah, I want to go
  92. 2:14all the way back to 2015. Yeah, to like
  93. 2:17the real meaning of marriage. So,
  94. 2:18anyway, I'm totally fine with that. And
  95. 2:19then it was the social revolutionaries
  96. 2:21who wanted to change everything.
  97. 2:22>> Why do you have to go all the way back?
  98. 2:23>> And then I just object to it and I say,
  99. 2:25"Hey, I don't think that's a great
  100. 2:26idea." And you say, "Why are you so
  101. 2:27obsessed?" Why?
  102. 2:28>> "I didn't change it."
  103. 2:29>> Why do Why is it not okay for men to
  104. 2:31marry men, women to marry women?
  105. 2:33>> Because they can't. It's like why can't
  106. 2:34a circle be a square? It just isn't.
  107. 2:36>> Well, that doesn't make any sense.
  108. 2:37That's not an answer to my question. Why
  109. 2:38do you believe that that isn't okay?
  110. 2:40>> Because marriage in its nature is the
  111. 2:42union between a a man and a woman for
  112. 2:43the purpose
  113. 2:44>> According to According to marriage,
  114. 2:46according to what it is.
  115. 2:47>> According to the Bible?
  116. 2:49>> No, according to nature.
  117. 2:50>> Right.
  118. 2:51Insane. According to nature.
  119. 2:53>> Yeah, yeah. It's like what
  120. 2:54>> What are you talking about, according to
  121. 2:56nature?
  122. 2:56>> Well, marriage
  123. 2:57>> You've seen in nature that that there
  124. 2:58are gay animals, right?
  125. 3:00>> Yeah, that's not marriage. They're not
  126. 3:01married.
  127. 3:01>> No, because marriage is what? Like
  128. 3:03>> But marriage is the union of a man
  129. 3:06But it's a social connotation.
  130. 3:08But Michael, do you
  131. 3:09Do you accept
  132. 3:10>> Cuz as you just quite rightly pointed
  133. 3:11out, animals don't get married
  134. 3:13naturally in the wild.
  135. 3:14>> I'm about to say something I'm about to
  136. 3:16say something you might agree with. So,
  137. 3:17shut up a minute.
  138. 3:19>> [laughter]
  139. 3:19>> Right?
  140. 3:20Do you accept that his proclivities to
  141. 3:22having sex with other men
  142. 3:24>> But it's also love. I want to make that
  143. 3:26distinction.
  144. 3:27>> but but is a is a natural thing.
  145. 3:29>> Uh yeah, I I think that there are all
  146. 3:31sorts of kind of weird deviancies and
  147. 3:33aberrations that come out
  148. 3:35>> an okay word to use about homosexuals.
  149. 3:37>> If it's natural, why is it deviant?
  150. 3:39>> Well, because we mean natural in two
  151. 3:40different ways. We mean natural like
  152. 3:42things that just happen.
  153. 3:44Like you know, animals will kill each
  154. 3:46other and eat each other. Or the
  155. 3:47cannibalism is natural, I guess, in that
  156. 3:48way. And we also mean natural as uh
  157. 3:51participation in like the moral law and
  158. 3:53the eternal law. So, you say, "Well,
  159. 3:55it's Look, it's maybe cannibalism is
  160. 3:56natural in a certain sense,
  161. 3:58but really it's totally contrary to the
  162. 4:00natural law. It's not good for human
  163. 4:01beings. So, we shouldn't do it." And so,
  164. 4:02when I say marriage is a natural
  165. 4:04institution, all I'm pointing out
  166. 4:05>> he's a deviant
  167. 4:06>> for being gay? Yeah, a little deviant,
  168. 4:08yeah, a little bit. Everybody's a little
  169. 4:09bit.
  170. 4:10>> of it. The thing is, people that are
  171. 4:11homophobic, which you are being a little
  172. 4:13bit right now, are always always
  173. 4:16closeted gay men afraid of their own
  174. 4:17feelings.
  175. 4:17>> Hold on.
  176. 4:18>> The research says it.
  177. 4:19>> Wait a second.
  178. 4:20>> What I think is happening here is that
  179. 4:21you are
  180. 4:21>> [laughter]
  181. 4:21>> so much about afraid of your own
  182. 4:23closeted homosexual feelings. And that's
  183. 4:25why you're saying it's not natural.
  184. 4:27>> What's amazing about
  185. 4:27>> It's interestingly
  186. 4:29Interestingly, they
  187. 4:30did gay version therapy?
  188. 4:31>> Hold on. I I've never made any I've
  189. 4:33never made any claims.
  190. 4:34>> Because it worked on me. Well, that's
  191. 4:35why I'm gay.
  192. 4:36>> What's so amazing about that rejoinder,
  193. 4:38which you always hear, is if you express
  194. 4:39the view of homosexuality held by
  195. 4:42Christians, religious Jews, Muslims,
  196. 4:45like uh perfectly ordinary
  197. 4:46>> Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.
  198. 4:47>> If you just express that view, notice
  199. 4:50what the really pro-LGBT activists will
  200. 4:52always say. The very first thing they'll
  201. 4:54do to insult you is to say, "Well,
  202. 4:55actually you're secretly gay." And I
  203. 4:57say, "I wasn't even using it as an
  204. 4:58insult. You're the one using it as an
  205. 5:00insult."
  206. 5:00>> I didn't say you're secretly gay because
  207. 5:01of that. I said you're secretly gay
  208. 5:02because you're being homophobic and
  209. 5:04saying I'm a deviant.
  210. 5:05>> Well, let me tell you what that is.
  211. 5:06That's the thing.
  212. 5:06>> But that is because you're afraid of gay
  213. 5:08people. And the only reason that would
  214. 5:09be is because of that. And let me just
  215. 5:11come back to what you said about
  216. 5:12religion. Um Leviticus, which is a
  217. 5:14chapter in the Bible that most people
  218. 5:15are drawing on.
  219. 5:16>> of the Bible.
  220. 5:17>> It's a book, sorry, chapter, whatever.
  221. 5:19They I don't mean to offend anyone here,
  222. 5:20but that was written by um the Jewish
  223. 5:22people after the Babylonians invaded as
  224. 5:25a sort of strict moral code, right?
  225. 5:27You're impressed by how intelligent I am
  226. 5:28sounding briefly.
  227. 5:30That is not God's word. That is the word
  228. 5:33of a strict moral code that came in
  229. 5:35after an invasion, after a war. There
  230. 5:37are so many other chapters that are
  231. 5:38ignored, other just texts that are
  232. 5:40ignored.
  233. 5:41>> your edification, uh Christians and Jews
  234. 5:43and Muslims believe that the Bible is in
  235. 5:45fact God's word. It's not that God
  236. 5:47literally
  237. 5:48>> literally isn't God's word.
  238. 5:50>> But I'm just pointing out to you you say
  239. 5:52that a Jewish scribe wrote down the book
  240. 5:54of Leviticus, therefore it's not God's
  241. 5:55word. The Christian belief is not that
  242. 5:56God like literally a hand came out of
  243. 5:58the cloud to write the Bible. It's that
  244. 5:59God inspired the the men who wrote the
  245. 6:02>> Okay, but why are the men that wrote
  246. 6:03that book correct and the other books
  247. 6:05that weren't included incorrect?
  248. 6:07>> What other books?
  249. 6:08>> The other Okay, I want you to read a
  250. 6:09book
  251. 6:10>> Why why are books that are not in the
  252. 6:11Bible
  253. 6:11>> I would like you to read a book called
  254. 6:12The Queer Thing About Sin, which dives
  255. 6:14into this quite deeply.
  256. 6:15>> Can you explain the point though? I'm
  257. 6:16trying to get to the point that
  258. 6:17>> is that a lot of books were written
  259. 6:19around then and only certain ones were
  260. 6:20chosen. Also, you're only having to
  261. 6:22defend yourself from that book.
  262. 6:23>> Yes, books
  263. 6:25that were not the Bible were also
  264. 6:27written at the same
  265. 6:27>> All right, let me just ask you again.
  266. 6:28But let me ask you again.
  267. 6:30>> But regardless of your individual views
  268. 6:32about this, okay?
  269. 6:34Why do you get a month to just go on
  270. 6:37about being gay? But why why do you?
  271. 6:39>> It's not a month to go on about being
  272. 6:41gay.
  273. 6:41>> Have a day. Have a pride day. But why a
  274. 6:43month?
  275. 6:44>> We have lots of different pride events
  276. 6:45all over the world. Um I think it's an
  277. 6:47important month because it shows people
  278. 6:49that we're okay. We're allowed to exist
  279. 6:51and that the world supports us.
  280. 6:52>> But surely you've reached a point now
  281. 6:54where this is This is generally
  282. 6:55>> No, because we haven't because there's
  283. 6:56idiots like Michael here. Bless you.
  284. 6:59>> Listen, I'm I'm a fan. I'm from New
  285. 7:02York.
  286. 7:02>> You're a fan of an idiot.
  287. 7:04>> [laughter]
  288. 7:04>> I don't want to offend you.
  289. 7:08>> I'm a little bit confused. Look, he's
  290. 7:09happy to share a platform with a
  291. 7:10deviant. You think you're a fan of an
  292. 7:13idiot. I mean, forgive me if I'm making
  293. 7:15you feel a little bit confused.
  294. 7:16>> Listen, I don't
  295. 7:17>> Wait, now you're confused? Does that
  296. 7:18mean that you are part of the LGBT
  297. 7:20community?
  298. 7:20>> sexuality, no.
  299. 7:21>> No, listen.
  300. 7:21>> He's not a queer.
  301. 7:22>> I've never harbored any indecent
  302. 7:24thoughts towards you.
  303. 7:24>> I I think your question is a bit you're
  304. 7:27simplifying it slightly and I think you
  305. 7:28know why.
  306. 7:29>> I'm genuinely confused. I get why
  307. 7:32certain days get celebrated as a day,
  308. 7:34right? Where you have a day where the
  309. 7:36world's focus is on Okay, that day, that
  310. 7:39day. And there are many many many days
  311. 7:40like that and I'm all in favor of that's
  312. 7:42fine. And I'd be totally fine with a
  313. 7:44pride day around the world where
  314. 7:46everyone who's LGBTQIA2S,
  315. 7:50you don't even know what 2S means.
  316. 7:53Just to to your point we had a day.
  317. 7:55HANG ON. HANG ON.
  318. 7:56>> It's It's a term used by some indigenous
  319. 7:58North American people to describe
  320. 8:00individuals whose spirits are a blend of
  321. 8:02both masculine and feminine
  322. 8:03>> was invented in 1990 by a woman who said
  323. 8:05it came to her in a dream.
  324. 8:06>> So it's a totally modern
  325. 8:08Let me just explain to you what it is.
  326. 8:10>> nonsense.
  327. 8:11>> And and as always, you know, when when
  328. 8:12people talk about things like two-spirit
  329. 8:14whatever, and I start to say well I can
  330. 8:16identify as whatever I want and I do the
  331. 8:17old okay, I want to be a two-spirit
  332. 8:19penguin. And then you all go but that's
  333. 8:21ridiculous. But who are you supporting a
  334. 8:24month celebrating a series of
  335. 8:26terminology which you don't even know
  336. 8:28what some of it means.
  337. 8:30>> As a gay man, I'm supporting anyone in
  338. 8:32the LGBTQ+ community.
  339. 8:34>> Why would you exclude Why would you
  340. 8:36exclude the two-spirit?
  341. 8:38Why are you excluding the two-spirit?
  342. 8:40>> Like can someone within my own community
  343. 8:43>> I think they'll be assaulted as you will
  344. 8:45be assaulted as I am. In fact,
  345. 8:47describe what a two-spirit penguin
  346. 8:49>> I think in the UK we don't have
  347. 8:50two-spirit, so I'm not completely across
  348. 8:53that. And I don't
  349. 8:54>> like to apologize to the two-spirit
  350. 8:55community?
  351. 8:56>> Would you like to apologize to the
  352. 8:57two-spirit community?
  353. 8:58>> Why?
  354. 8:58>> Because you supports them. He's
  355. 8:59including them.
  356. 9:00>> Right. Great.
  357. 9:00>> I've included them. You haven't.
  358. 9:02>> Yeah.
  359. 9:03What do you want What do you want to say
  360. 9:04to the two-spirit?
  361. 9:05>> Can I tell you
  362. 9:06>> to the two-spirit community for not for
  363. 9:07for not knowing what they mean?
  364. 9:09>> Yeah, sure. I apologize to the
  365. 9:10two-spirit community for not knowing
  366. 9:12what that means.
  367. 9:13>> But do you Do you apologize for not Do
  368. 9:15you accept
  369. 9:15>> But I would like to understand.
  370. 9:17>> this is part of the problem that we're
  371. 9:18We're spending a month celebrating stuff
  372. 9:20which you can't even explain what we're
  373. 9:21celebrating.
  374. 9:22>> let me get a word in. And the reason
  375. 9:24that I don't understand what it is is
  376. 9:25because people like you are just
  377. 9:26shouting over LGBTQ+ people who are
  378. 9:28>> No, you wouldn't have understood it
  379. 9:30however long I gave you.
  380. 9:32You wouldn't
  381. 9:32>> Can I tell you
  382. 9:33>> however LONG I GAVE YOU.
  383. 9:34>> CAN I tell you why I think a pride month
  384. 9:36is important?
  385. 9:37>> Yes.
  386. 9:37>> I think it is important because when I
  387. 9:39grew up as gay at school, I lived in
  388. 9:41section 28, which was a law in the UK
  389. 9:43that banned teachers or anybody
  390. 9:45discussing gay people. So, nobody knew
  391. 9:48what gay was. So, when I was bullied for
  392. 9:50being gay, and people still get bullied
  393. 9:51all the time in the UK for being LGBTQ+
  394. 9:54two-spirit around the world, that is
  395. 9:57very difficult. And I think pride month
  396. 9:59gives TV shows, stations, conversations
  397. 10:02like this a platform
  398. 10:03>> explaining it.
  399. 10:05>> alone that they are not alone.

  404. 10:12>> not gay.
  405. 10:13>> Yeah, but but but so it's why I don't I
  406. 10:15don't I hope you would say I don't have
  407. 10:16a trace of homophobia about me. I've
  408. 10:19always been completely tolerant of LGBT
  409. 10:22community.
  410. 10:23>> Well, you hide behind
  411. 10:24I lose it when you get into all the
  412. 10:25other letters cuz even you don't know
  413. 10:26what they mean.
  414. 10:27>> But I'm not those letters. So, why would
  415. 10:29I necessarily know what they mean?

  430. 10:50other words, am I obligated to believe

  432. 10:55really be a woman? Is that Am I a hater?
