Re: Junk yard stalker
I wouldn't have the slightest clue how Dean Laidley feels about himself, neither do I care. I'm reading less and less media news these day and rarely watch TV news, when I do I'm very grateful that I limit it
What a weird and wonderful world we live in.

Talking about pictures, how many file photos do you think Fox Sports trawled through to find the one used in this article where Laidley looks like he's " puckering up to don some lippy" !
I do not think his photo should have been taken on a Police station and circulated, and I may be naive however if you choose to go out in public in drag and refer to yourself by a feminine name you would expect that the content of the photo being the attire and his appearance should not be of concern to Laidley.

Re: DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LAIDLEY
Gutter press. The arrest is relevant I guess but how is it in the public interest that the man dresses in drag?
Vultures.

Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

Re: DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LAIDLEY
Public fascination with the obscure and different.
The Moe people and their life styles exposed after the horrendous Jaiden Leskie murder. The public fascination with how these people lived was unprecedented.
Tiger Kings is another example.
Its gutter press but human nature.
The truth is always stranger than fiction.

Re: DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LAIDLEY
Yes it has Saynta and in fact that was my initial reaction, and time will tell if that is so. However I am more persuaded by the expression of support from his former teammates which tends me to conclude that Laidley's cross-dressing is perhaps a sign of a pre-existing serious mental condition.saynta wrote: ↑Wed 06 May 2020 12:32pmHas the thought crossed your mind that he was maybe trying to disguise himself whilst stalking somebody?Sanctorum wrote: ↑Wed 06 May 2020 11:21amYou are being quite callous and presumptuous "True Believer".True Believer wrote: ↑Tue 05 May 2020 4:57pmWith your username, I think you spelled Sanctimonious wrong...…..Sanctorum wrote: ↑Tue 05 May 2020 4:18pm This is an incredibly sad story and should never be trivialised in the way that some on this forum have done.

Either way, do you really believe that mocking Dean Laidley's public humiliation as has been expressed by a number of Saints supporters on this forum is worthy or deserving??
Don't you think that his mother and children would find this open discussion terribly humiliating and painful for them??

Re: DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LAIDLEY
Not that I particularly care personnally, but wouldn't associating cross dressing with a serious mental condition be considered incredibly offensive to those that do it?

I always found Bugs Bunnys willingness and pure bliss when dressed in drag somewhat disturbing.

Re: Junk yard stalker
And make threats to kill, and breaching an intervention order, and committing indictable offences whilst on bail as he allegedly did similar things approx 1 month ago (hence why he wouldn't have bothered applying for bail) Not to mention the ICE. If he was Jo Blow off the street we'd dismiss him as a loser but because he has a footy profile we feel sorry for him and ppl are reaching out. My sympathy goes to the victim who was stalked and threatenedSydneySainter wrote: ↑Tue 05 May 2020 7:57pmI wouldn’t be so quick to assume that Laidley is a victim just yet.

There is no question that this is a gross breach of privacy and I feel for him in that respect.
But, he is being charged for stalking, let’s not forget that.

I’m impressed this can stay on the main page as Laidley is a former Saints coach. Good pick up!

Re: DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LAIDLEY
Human nature, its in all of Deans behaviour, and in the cops who couldn't wait to circulate pics of him, the media running with it out of 'good conscience' , our chit-chat. It's a continuum and yet we are forced to think of it as 0 or 1, i.e. Dean is or isn't 'sick', 2. He is or isn't a 'victim', 3. Cops were or were not 'rotten', 4. Footy coaches should or shouldn't play out fantasies, etc.. 5. Drugs are categorically 'bad'
You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

But I'd imagine the former is the issue here.
If you don't want to be seen in drag, you wouldn't go out in public in drag I wouldn't have thought.
FWIW, too many of us grew up with movies like Silence of The Lambs and s***, and associate a cross dressing male with smeared makeup with a deranged serial killer.
That's obviously a pathetically ignorant generalisation.
But even though I try to be, and consider myself to be, a progressive dude - I still naturally draw that association. If I really cared about the topic, I'd be ashamed of myself for doing so.
But instead, I'm just happy to say good luck to him (in regards to the dresses and s***, not the stalking), and I'll continue trying to show empathy to people in society that do s*** that I grew up thinking was wrong.

Re: DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LAIDLEY
Sorry slightly OT but to your point about stereotypes and transgender it's actually made specifically clear in both the book and the film that Jame Gum is NOT transexual but a monster with a pathology 'a thousand times more terrifying' and they make it clear there isn't a link between transexuals and violence. So anyone who got that message from watching Silence wasn't paying attention.BarryGrogan wrote: ↑Fri 08 May 2020 12:06amObviously wouldn't have a clue.Joffa Burns wrote: ↑Thu 07 May 2020 4:48pmWould he be upset the photos were taken in a Police station or upset because he'd been photographed in drag?BarryGrogan wrote: ↑Wed 06 May 2020 1:04pmNot that I particularly care personnally, but wouldn't associating cross dressing with a serious mental condition be considered incredibly offensive to those that do it?
