A guy I went to high school with is a constant source of social justice posts, sometimes insightful, often good old slacktivism. He just posted about the real problem with that catcalling video: they edited out the white guys.

I don't have an issue with hunting but this is hilarious.

That is clearly not a package of wild game in that image. What the gently caress is this even supposed to be saying? We don't stock our grocery stores via hunting, and haven't for longer than anyone around has been alive. Farmers, ranchers, and butchers provide our meat, not hunters.

Also the idea that there is a significant number of subsistence hunters is about as insane as trying to make the case that "Never-Nudes" are actually a thing. Less than 6% of Americans hunt regularly and I cannot find any reliable source on the number of Americans that actually hunt to survive. On top of that Firearm hunting for subsistence is goddamned stupid. You might go out and hunt a large game a couple times a year when they're in season, but the majority of the time you're going to be baiting, trapping, and foraging which are more reliable, less expensive, and don't require as much effort.

The only people I've ever met who tried to claim they "subsistence hunted" were Freemen wannabes who decided to run off into the West Virginian wilderness and nearly died by eating nothing but rabbits and wild mushrooms.

This is a literal child whining "But I have to live this way and you're not letting me you're a hypocrite!!!!!!"

Hey, I know this is something awful, but I hope you feel like an asshat for this being your initial reaction to allegations of sexual abuse. It's because of reactions like yours that more women don't report sexual assault.

Yeah, my bad on that. The initial articles I had read about it really painted the picture that she was an angry ex, who used the stigma of BDSM to ruin his career. They didn't even mention that there was abuse in the relationship (outside of what you could consider "normal" for that kind of sex life), but I guess that's what I get for believing the news about allegations of abuse against men.

So apologies to her, dude is a loving shitbag and I hope they crucify him.

A Swedish channel basically did that show, they went to some of the worst trolls in Sweden and asked them why they said what they did etc. All the trolls had both their face and voice distorted, so they were completely anonymous. But without a single exception, they where just as pathetic as you could imagine. And even though they say the vilest things, they sure didn't like being confronted by someone else. They journalist confronting them had a kind of Chris Hansen-esque way of talking, which made it so awesome to watch.

Good on you for being proud!
It can be such a struggle growing up straight.

When did you first realize you were straight?

How long did it take you to realize you weren’t gay like everyone else?

What lengths did you go to in order to hide the fact you were straight from everyone else?

How many dates with someone of the same gender did you go on because you didn’t want people talking about how you never went out with another guy/girl?

Were you worried about telling your parents that you liked people of the opposite sex?

Did you ever overhear your dad talking with friends and saying how any kid of his that was straight he’d kick to the curb?

Did you have a straight friend who wound up homeless after he told his parents that he liked girls?

Or was he just beaten at school and called a pussy-lover or boob-chaser or fish-packer?

Did you ever try to Pray Away the Straight? Get sent to Straight Camp to try and fix your feelings for the opposite sex?

Did you ever have to sit and listen to political and religious leaders on TV talking about how you, yes you specifically, for liking the opposite sex, where not only doomed to hell and eternal hellfire, but were also solely responsible for the destruction of America, the modern world, marriage, and any natural disaster that occurred?

Who was your favorite straight character on TV? I mean, they probably weren’t -written- as straight, but who did you watch and feel that, even though they’d been written hooking up with someone of the same gender, they just had this.. air about them, this connection with an opposite-sexed costar that just… Well, they -had- to be straight. And it made you feel less alone to imagine that they were. That they could be like you. And thus, you could be like them.

Did you ever promise God that you’d do anything you’d want him to if He’d just let you fall in love/lust with someone of the same gender, so you didn’t have to be so different?

What’s your most notable scar? The one you got from your dad’s punch when he found out you were straight? The one you got from some random kids who jumped you and your boy/girlfriend as you were sneaking out of a straightbar one night? The ones you gave yourself after you found ‘Straightmo’ spraypainted over your locker and none of the teachers did anything about it?

Are you lucky enough to live somewhere you can be openly straight and walk hand in hand with your boy/girlfriend? Or do you have to pretend that you’re just roommates and put up pictures of someone of the same sex whenever your parents come to visit so they think you’re in a proper relationship?

I know it can be hard answering these questions, but that’s what Straight Pride is all about. Taking all the hurt and abuse and terror of the world, and forging it into a kind of strength. Remember, we’re right there with you. There’s nothing wrong with being straight. In fact, it’s something to be proud of.

And maybe someday, your opposite-sex relationship will be as natural and accepted as same-sex ones.

Probably not in your lifetime, admittedly, but someday…

My favourite example of this has got to be anti-gay activist Paul Cameron. Jesus Christ.

Paul Cameron, during an interview with Rolling Stone posted:

Marital sex tends toward the boring end. Generally, it doesn't deliver the kind of sheer sexual pleasure that homosexual sex does. If you isolate sexuality as something solely for one's own personal amusement, if all you want is the most satisfying orgasm you can get, then homosexuality seems too powerful to resist.
