this is another form of hypocrisy or whatever.
muslims are significantly responsible for the use of alcohol.
why you ask in incredulity?
its because they make such tasty curries. and no decent curry can be consumed without a beer.
and there you have it. plot the growth of alcoholism against the curry industry and i bet the are neck and neck!

If you are a hotel or B&B.....you sell rooms for hire in reality. You should not be able to discrimiate on grounds of colour, religion, age, or sexual preferance. Simple.
I don't actually believe it is anything to do with religion, in this case but pure discrimination . However if you really do have strong religious views, then don't run a business that allows you to come into contact with people that may offend you.
It has everything to do with religion... or rather the religious beliefs of the people running the B&B/hotel. They believe that homosexuality is wrong and didn't want a gay couple staying in their establishment.
I agree with duncanlondon... why didn't the gay couple accept this and find another place to stay?

the gay couple should have booked a hotel where they would not have encountered this problem.
oh right so you think the people who own the B&B should be allowed to break the law, and discriminate. The law abiding couple, that just happen to be Gay, who are not breaking any law, should be made to move on and find alternative accommadation !!
I think when things get like this between people, mixed thoughts and feelings escalate and aggravate. Then it becomes a battle. And that takes some motivation and determination to carry out. Why were the gay guys so committed to this course of action?
I mean did they want a nice quiet night in the country or did they want all this? It seems that is what they got. Why didn't they just walk away and get on with having some fun?
And how can you reason with or try to persuade people who have strongly held opinions and are so ignorant that they can't change? In most case its just not worth fighting for.
So I think the gay guys could see this and pushed for what they got. They made it happen as much as the hoteliers.
To be fair, hearing what the guys experienced might throw another perspective on this fairly common 'problem'. As a couple you present admirable credentials, but something is not working for you.
It might be that you are focussing on the outcome and not investing in the process. Are you spending enough time and effort in working with the partners or just expecting a result? Your relationship may need all your energy and focus in what you normally do. Do you have the capacity to take on other people, really?
Most people think that they are okay with sex when they are already in a good relationship and having fab sex. Change things slightly and it may not be the case anymore. Then that comfortable feeling goes and you are on edge again.
Most of us are conditioned to monogamistic thinking, and despite wanting to swing and even doing it, may still be deeply fundamentally not content about doing it. So is it really for you?
Some couples present an impenetrable quality brought about by a strong love and commitment. Its a powerful shield, which you have to switch off when swinging. Otherwise the extra partner may feel excluded.
Well some ideas to think about.
