Kinda got on this tangent in the POTUS/scrotus thread, but i always wonder about the fucking cherry picking people do with the Bible. Like, we're not stoning women who defy their husbands, or selling daughters as objects, but we're really gonna hang up on man lying with another man?

I have a lot of issues with Christianity (two millenia of imperialism, the complete dominion of western thought, one ought to), but this shit is so ludicrous. Let's ignore that the current cultural conception of homosexuality is a Victorian invention, and just look at the book that tghese people claim to be worshipping. Where does it say "people with different sexual desires shall be forbidden from buying our pizza" Exactly? And what about the several hundred odd insane rules people don't follow anymore. Hell this is the book whose Mark of Cain and Mark of Ham was used to justify chattel slavery. Fuck. I am not even coherent but also not sorry.



Out of curiosity, how many people here are gay?

We have a few LGBT members who post with varying frequency.

Yeah, i figured as much, and have inferred from a few people's posts. Was just curious who else there is. Kinda wonder when these conversations happen. Not that one needs to be gay to have an opinion on this, but it is interesting how it feels like people react differently to this news.

Yeah I would agree with that, insofar as the levels of empathy have fundamentally different ceilings.

i'd guess basically everyone here at least has some gay friends/family etc and at minimum a general idea of how shitty the discrimination people face is.
i'm somewhere in the pansexual/bisexual camp. never bothered too much identifying as anything specific but it's an awkward thing, socially.

precisely why i don't normally bother with that label

you could have done better than that though

We definitely have no shortage of straight males. That said, I'm proud of our behavior much more often than not.

HARD ANODIZED

Yeah, you might be right. Don't want to trivialize that though -- some of my earliest memories as far as this sort of discriminatory stuff is concerned was watching people who were HIV positive interacting with the general public in the mid 90's (not exactly the most understanding environment) and so I kind of shy away from anything that might be construed as 'bashing' as a result, even if I'm one of those dreaded cis males or w/e.

The Jamie Oliver cookware used to be really good, but stay the fuck away from the newer, cheaper shit. It is fucking terrible.

skilletsexual?

Maybe important to note once again, that despite being fit into a whole slew of identities, i really don't appreciate any of them being put on me. I don't think queerness imparts any meaningful qualities onto a person besides who they might fuck (and really most queers i know are terrified of sex, or have complicated relationships at best). I actually think people on this board have really great opinions about these matters, for the most part, and when i started posting here i had been lurking for a while on/off, i re-read a Devi thread and was pumped to see several posters call out miserable transphobic insults, and definitely felt more comfortable posting here as a result.

Gender and sexuality are complicated things, and i personally don't believe most people fit the straighg or "cis" tags as cleanly as many people on "both sides of the issue" want to believe. Mostly just asking because when these laws passed in other states, my reaction has largely been "well, of course" bc the people who were going to take advantage of these laws, that underlying behavior was already there, and I was jist curious but in hindsight it doesn't actually matter, nor do i care so much.

I'm trisexual.

On of my favorite jokes to make. Thank you.

Agree that labels are all too simplistic, and I could never fit into any one label (most certainly not in the bedroom)...but I'm gayer than a wooden watch. One of THE dreaded gays.

Or as the poet laureate, Andrew Dice Clay puts it...There is no "bisexual". Either you suck dick, or you do NOT suck dick.
