i was under the impression that "poofter" was a derogatory term for a man who was either homosexual OR acted in less-than masculine ways. Hmm. Figure you watch Priscilla Queen of the desert enough times, you start understanding these things.
Well, either way, it was meant to be a joke and in no way meant to put down any one(other than miata drivers((actually, i do quite like that car myself but know i'd never hear the end of it here in the states)).
Dropping subject now.
