I came out to my mom this morning (The Gay Megathread)

[DrenDran]

There has been large amounts of evidence, available for years, showing that it's not a choice.
Plus common sense (why would someone choose a loveuality that gives them a ton of hatred?)

To be fair people can choose how to express their loveuality.
And it's not what you think or believe that matters, it's what you do.
loveuality might as well be a choice.

it does

Nothing he said was inherently offensive or discriminating. It didn't suit you so you got angry. Stop being so sensitive.

As an Egalitarian who believes in equal opportunity for all races, lovees and orientation you're giving the movement a stuffty name. Educate ignorance before you stuff on it. The odds of XR-7 standing for the cause is drastically slimmed when he's confronted with insults.

try to tell your math teacher that 2 plus 2 is not in fact 4 and see how she responds

Well she certainly wouldn't call me disgusting trash pond scum for being wrong. She'd explain to me why I'm wrong with evidence and logic. Not insults.

The only problem is that homoloveuality isn't something everyone agrees on

[Leidoffon]

It still doesn't seem natural

Whenever I see somebody say this, I wonder just what the heck "natural" means in this context.

umm ok, sir, he is claiming that I'm lying about being gay, as well as every other gay person, if you think that isn't offensive or discriminating then I don't need to talk to you

The only problem is that homoloveuality isn't something everyone agrees on

what does this even mean?

you know you could just forgetin' TRY to not be an starfish and just have a little patience and explain to people why you disagree with them.

go back to tumblr lol

It can seem foreign and unnatural easily to someone who is not gay.

It means you can't compare homoloveuality to grass being green and 1 + 1 = 2 because its a stuffty comparison to something that not everyone agrees on to something they do.

You're just going around in your own circles night.
(p.s. im not trying to get involved in the whole gay is yes/no/nature/whatever argument)
You are being hostile out of nowhere, try to counter someone's argument rather than insulting the person themselves.
And honestly there is no point in even paying attention to your whole "no I said he is wrong" phrase as, like you said, you wont provide any input on why/how they are wrong so you're adding nothing to any sort of discussion.
So to make this simple, no night "you're just wrong"

[XR-7]

I'm done arguing with Night Fox. His Titanic seems ready to go.

To the rest of you, I'm probably always going to look at homoloveuality as odd and even wrong due to my Christian beliefs (completely different boat, let's not go there), but I'm not going to hate somebody for it. I find Emo Freak to be cool. I have a panloveual friend (who is actually sitting right behind me). But it doesn't alter them as a person, so I'm not willing to chase someone down for whatever preference they have.

[Tayasaurus]

We know you're better than this Night Fox. I've seen you argue a point really well before

[Leidoffon]

But it's not really the straight person's business in the first place to judge :Y

I mean, if you have a problem with two adults being in love, you're a jerk.

Not understanding something or not being comfortable with something does not mean they are judging it or hating it.

Acceptance =/= tolerance and rejection =/= hate.

[Night Fox]

Well she certainly wouldn't call me disgusting trash pond scum for being wrong. She'd explain to me why I'm wrong with evidence and logic. Not insults.

in that case, tell her she's not a woman. tell her she's hiding a snake in her pants. and don't say "I think" or "in my opinion," no, you have to do what XR did, tell her exactly "you're not actually female"

you know you could just forgetin' TRY to not be an starfish and just have a little patience and explain to people why you disagree with them.

like I said approximately 1000 times I don't disagree with him. you can't disagree with something unless it's a matter of opinion
but I don't need to show any patience. he's heard all of it before. how do I know?? because he said he's saying it "again." so what's the point in repeating it to him

It means you can't compare homoloveuality to grass being green and 1 + 1 = 2 because its a stuffty comparison to something that not everyone agrees on to something they do.

welllllll yes you can because they're both facts. grass is green and that's a fact, just like "homoloveuality is real" is a fact

We know you're better than this Night Fox. I've seen you argue a point really well before

chances are good that this is one of those points you're talking about. possibly even with this same guy. I don't need to do it again, because he isn't going to listen to it. he hasn't before and he won't now

[Clone v.117]

You're the only one not listening, bud.

[Night Fox]

You're the only one not listening, bud.

what am I not listening to? please enlighten me
