why is it seen as homophobia when a man from turkey doesnt want to endorse homosexuality in public? its merely self preservation imho?

why is this loving probe worthy?

I mean he said 'I fully understand the importance of this action, but because of my religious beliefs, I don't feel the right person to support this' which strikes me as having a disapproving attitude towards gay people rather than 'im Turkish'

Because it's nothing but an apology for homophobia clothed in a disingenuous hypothetical?

Sigh. Corporations having total power to make you wear political slogans: fine. Even considering the idea that anyone, worldwide, is not on board with one armband campaign: homophobia.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

lmao do you seriously not see how hosed up it is to compare wearing a rainbow armband to promote LGBT rights, to wearing an armband to promote taking rights away from a group of people?

Wayne Rooney twin brother aside, for some reason the ridiculousness of that article is giving me flashbacks to the 15-ish year old story of some couple deciding to butt-chug wine and the dude died after basically taking a full two-bottle enema and ending up with a BAC of about 0.5.
