It's the last straw when homers force there way into one of the most male dominated and all-American occupations, roustabouts. Who wants to put homer-based gasoline into their pride and joy?
We are learning homers are infiltrating the oil fields looking for anal sex targets. Oil soaked naked men set their hormones pumping.

BOWMAN, N.D.—Last month, the state Legislature defeated an anti-discrimination bill for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender residents and couples. Still, new residents are joining the gay community in North Dakota looking for new beginnings.
As the country awaits the Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage—a decision is not expected before late June—gay, married couples are making strides and gaining acceptance in small communities in North Dakota.
Their forays into schools, churches and newspapers have not been without some concern, and even fear, on their part. For many, the transition is not all about sexual orientation, it's about being a North Dakotan.
"I don't know why anyone would feel trepidation about moving to North Dakota. Once you get acclimated to the weather, it's a great time," said Ramona Capps, of Underwood.
Here is the story of two couples—one in Bowman, the other in Underwood—and their journey in creating a new home.

When Bryce Martin decided to come out as gay and married, he did it in the local newspaper.
Martin is editor of the Bowman County Pioneer, a weekly newspaper in Bowman, and all 1,500 subscribers learned of his lifestyle with the same stroke of his editorial pen a few weeks ago.
He figured, if he was upset when the Legislature did not approve an anti-discrimination bill for people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender, the least he could do was use himself as an example.
