Yea, TERFs are human garbage piles. Like someone already said you fuckin expect Huckabee and all to be regressive idiots because Jesus Hates Everyone But Me, This I Know, but TERFs pretend to be actual progressives. Like, you can find yourself bamboozled by a TERF. "Oh hey this lady is making some really good points about this feminist issue, awesome. She seems like a smart person, let's see what else she's written." "TRANS PEOPLE ARE ALL RAPISTS AND PART OF A CONSPIRACY TO ENSLAVE WOMEN" "gently caress! TERF'd again!"

Nostalgia4Infinity posted:I remember someone once asked me if I could take a pill to make me straight would I take it. For the longest time I would say yes but then I thought about it and realized I only felt that way because society treats LGBT people like poo poo. So now I say gently caress that noise because I like who I am. Pretty much the path I took on these kinda questions. When you realize 'wait I'm saying yes not because I dislike being gay, but because I dislike how others treat me because of being gay' that's a pretty big 'well gently caress' moment that makes you examine some things.

Megaspel posted:In regards to the pill that would erase transgenderism/gayness whatever. The topic was already discussed and completely solved forever in the hit movie "X-Men The Last Stand™". Please use "X-Men The Last Stand™" for all future reference for any debate and/or discussion centred around a pill that cures people of being different. All I can think about is that terrible scene when Rogue, the mutant who literally cannot touch another living being or she will drain their life force away, says 'yea you know, may wanna go in on that cure, it'd be pretty awesome to touch another human being once in my life'. Then Storm, the literal queen/goddess from her country with lightning powers that do nothing but make her more of a badass says 'hey, we're perfect as we are'. Like, I love X-Men but when you get past the absolute most base levels of comparisons the whole 'they're kinda like ANOTHER minority that has to live in the shadows, huh?' kinda goes out the window. Like, I drain my partners souls away through prolonged contact because I'm a terrible human being, not because I'm gay, thank you  ed: god drat I love that wordfilter

Fittingly enough the best 'x-men more like THE STRUGGLES OF GAY YOUTH' stuff has actually been around Iceman, mostly because a lot of it was lowkey enough so when he came out there were some genuinely solid articles countering the whole 'oh you just randomly did it for PC poo poo' with some genuinely solid cases. Like, since the old comics he's had issues with 'disappointing' his parents especially his dad, most of his relationships with women are friendly rather than romantic, one of his big romances is with an alien that switches gender around because it's made of like...fog I think? See, he works just fine because 'ice poo poo' is a cool power that has both ups and downs and all, so it's reasonable for him to be all mutant and proud while still having issues! Using Rogue as the stand in was just kinda hamfisted and terrible.

So uh, speaking of the pray the gay away camp...has anyone actually looked into Heartlight Ministries? The literal only mention of them being 'pray the gay away' is in this recent story, its main services seem to be rehab, like actual drug rehab and poo poo. There's literally zero record of anyone talking about them being gay conversion until 3 days ago unless I'm really missing something? The most I can see is their founder has made some silly 'we should love gay people but it's totes a choice guys and it's trendy to be gay now anyway' kinda statements which sucks but I'm not seeing, say, Exodus poo poo. They even make it super clear they don't actually require church attendance or anything. I know no poo poo they can be lying but you'd think a gay cure place would, ya know, advertise 'yea we fix those poor confused babies' like everyone else does

That seems like a weird brush to tar the literal concept of rehab for people under 18 with. I've had friends who went to 'juvenile rehab' places for stuff like 'I'm 14 and addicted to pills, my parents think it'd be cool if I didn't OD before I was even an adult' stuff. There's...actually a pretty huge gap between the two concepts! I'm not saying there's zero way there's anything wrong with anything these dudes do but either they were the most stealth gay conversion camp of the lot of them or there's some other factors involved.

LORD OF BOOTY posted:what do you think I was saying with this sentence, because the intended meaning is "next time anything remotely similar to this happens, we start beating the gently caress out of straight cis people, regardless of race or religion." or poo poo, don't even wait for a next time, do it now. "We start beating the gently caress out of straight cis people" wasn't Stonewall, and how dare you invoke that while literally supporting the loving crazy strawperson that revisionists have tried to pretend it was. Stonewall's anger was directed at the people, you know, actively going into their clubs and poo poo. Like, maybe use this anger to actually get involved instead of pining for the gay civil war which spoiler alert we'd lose p. bad. Like, fuckin hell man black people can't even have a protest saying 'maybe stop murdering us so bad' without tear gas and police rear end beatings, you think we can just decide it's the fuckin hetro Purge?

Probably exactly as you just did, Latin person, or like, 'from (wherever they're actually from)' or something. I've heard people say 'latin-ex' out loud and it sounds fine but I have no clue if that's a 'thing' or just something they do.

^^^This is horrible and I'm so sorry for anyone caught up in that but this is the funniest loving story about government sanctioned bigotry I've heard in a while. "WE HAVE TO FIND THIS DORTHY LADY ALL THESE HOMOS ARE FRIENDS WITH" Nostalgia4Infinity posted:And before someone gets it twisted, DADT was a horrible policy that deserved to go away. It was monstrous policy and a nightmare to serve under. Next week marks my 6th anniversary of getting out of the military and I'm still dealing with the emotional and mental scars. Yea we should never pretend DADT was a GOOD thing, but we also can't act like there was some BETTER solution on the table Clinton walked away from. It was a terrible stopgap to fix a horrible problem, there's no excuse for it taking so long to fix but when people act like it was Clinton somehow making GBS threads on gays it's just absurd. It's almost as if up until very recently gay rights were a constant struggle to even get weak, half-assed, reforms to fix absolutely horrific abuses of basic human dignity or something. sexpig by night fucked around with this message at 19:57 on Jun 17, 2016 |

fishmech posted:It's worth remembering the Clinton's platform in 1992 had been to remove restrictions on gay people in the military completely, but conservative democrats had teamed up with the republicans to block it. They were threatening to reaffirm the existing investigate and dishonorable discharge status quo. The Clinton white house was literally the first time in American history we had a white house actively on our side in basically any way. First major (out) gay appointments, major pushes for HIV/AIDS coverage in medical benefits, hell they were even on the 'hey maybe stop bullying gay kids, I bet that's not good for them' train long before everyone else. We literally had people giving impassioned rants about how the clinton white house was the 'most pro-gay administration ever' as a slam on them. poo poo still sucked, it's like we're an oppressed minority or something, but some non-LGBT dude coming in to be all 'hrm I dunno if you think about it wasn't this just basically separate but equal' is loving bonkers.

The Insect Court posted:I find the implication that the Obama FDA is filled with secretly bible-thumping homophobes to be a questionable one. Doubly so when there are perfectly sensible reasons arising from well-regarded mainstream statistical epidemiology as to why the deferral period should remain in place. Who's called them 'secretly bible-thumping homophobes', though? Literally who? We've said they're behind the times, and ignorant, and yea probably a bit bigoted, but I don't think the fuckin head of the FDA is screaming about JAYZUS healing all the queers of their faggotry or whatever. I think it's just a group of old straight people who are still in an AIDS panic mentality about 'well jeepers better safe than sorry with those queers'.
