Straight Pride Parade

[Phil C. McNasty]

Then make it a Phil McNasty parade, one where people of every sexual orientation can join

I dont mind that all, Crimson. You can join!

In fact, I want you to be our Grand Marshall :thumb:

Don't make it "straight pride" because that's just offensive to LGBTQIA+ people

Uhm, you guys have your "Gay Pride Parade" also, dont you??
Isnt that offensive to straight people??
Why not make it more inclusive and include all sexually orientated people??

 

[Phil C. McNasty]

Thanks but no thanks

Don't hate the Straight :biggrin1:

 

[Smallcock]

you hate because you fear your own impulses

wigglee you have no credibility to make that comment toward TeeJay. You once asked me on right on this board how my dad's cock tasted. That's the most perverted thing I've read in my adult life.

Or because their parents are alcoholics, abusers, and the like. And a kid is still out on the streets. For no other reason than the parents are assholes.

Which has nothing to do with one's sexuality, which was OP's point. So your point of asshole parents is irrelevant to the discussion.

There are many LGBTQIA+ spaces; it's just that the queer pride parade is a "space" that allows them to demonstrate their pride in front of other people. Straight people can watch but they are not allowed to attend or march in it, because they are not queer. Straight people do not need to demonstrate their pride because they are not marginalized.

Whether the media can cover it or whether the corporations can try to make a few bucks from it is another discussion. I am personally against corporations using marginalized groups as tokens for their own personal benefit.

The right honourable Justin Trudeau marched in your parade. And took his requisite selfies.

How did that sit with you?

What difference does it make if your parent throws you out of the house because he's a jerk, or because he hates gays??!!

Answer this please

So that has nothing to do with the child, let alone their sexuality, which is the topic at hand. As such, that point is not germane to the discussion.

Was it in the retarded thread you made asking if your cock is bigger than your dad's?

I agree that the end result is the same. However, if the discussion is about discrimination, then the reason is very pertinent.

It is the exact same that when every time there is a mass shooting, they always want to know WHY the perp did it. What was the motivation?

It’s like the difference between a black man being lynched and dying in a random shooting. Yes, he winds up dead either way, so the outcome is the same, but intent matters. One is a hate crime, the other is not. They’re both bad, but one is certainly more reprehensible than the other.

So hetero kids tossed out aren't deserving of the same help? Or even acknowledgement, because of their sexual orientation?

How about a hetero female tossed out because of religious reasons? Or, hetero males from tossed out from those incestuous polyamory religious cults like Bountiful? Are they not relevant?

 

[Grimnul]

No one said they weren’t relevant, or didn’t deserve help (except, perhaps, that anti-hetero bigot, Crimson). The point was that there’s a difference between someone being thrown out because of their sexual orientation and someone being thrown out because their parents are assholes. Both are bad, both deserve help, it’s just that the motivation is different.

It's quite sad that people of all political stripes can't see how they are being manipulated with clickbait stories like this. Critical and rational thinking have gone out the window on both sides. Clearly, it's is far easier to hide behind a keyboard instead of actually talking with another human being about these issues. I see no issue with parades, pronouns, etc. and if they help you feel better about yourself then go ahead and celebrate them. Makes no difference at all to my daily life and I'll bet most people feel the same way.

I don't know the depth of discrimination against straight people or how it stacks up to that of gay people, but I think many are playing the victim. They would rather claim discrimination instead of taking personal responsibility for their mistakes. It's very convenient that people can claim that they were terminated, for example, just because of there sexual orientation. There were likely many other factors at play.

We should also realize that high profile people from one group do not speak for everyone. Just because someone is a Liberal, Conservative, etc does not mean they agree with everything a high profile person says.

So instead of "She is going to the store", you'd prefer if I said "They is going to the store"?

Or instead of "she likes cookies" you prefer "they like cookies" even though it's only referring to you?

Same concept as the royal we
lol


You know CM is just trolling but man some of the idiocy they post is just too funny

 

[TeeJay]

I'm not gay; I'm trans and bisexual.

Um... do you even know what the term bisexual means?
Bisexual on its own makes you gay since you are doing both

No straight person would be with someone of the same sex

Second. This kind of rhetoric is completely unhelpful. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: people like this are why Trump won. People by and large are supportive of LGBTQ rights, but people don’t like being preached at. This sort of nonsense, if anything, pushes people to oppose progressive policies just to spite the obnoxious safe-space, social justice types. Regressive liberalism is every bit as harmful as regressive conservatism.

This is the wrong platform, and this bullshit is just cluttering up the board and causing drama. There’s no reason for Crimson to be here. A ban would be appropriate, in my opinion.

I'm glad I'm not the only sane person around here.

The problem is that ''they'' are not trolling ''they'' are dead serious.

And the Ontario Human Rights Commission agrees with ''them''.

Jordan Peterson has been fighting this nonsense for some time now. Please check out this short video which describes the lunacy going on.

Okay, tell me what do YOU do to contribute to the TERB community aside from crying out your white male tears and starting circlejerks on how you think white cis-gendered men are so oppressed? Do you make reviews? Are you an SP?

I have been providing reviews since 2005, thats 14 years in case math is not your strong point. And I have reviewed on the Niagara boards and the defunct Windsor board, the latter since 2002. I cry no tears, I am not involved in any proverbial circle-jerking and according to SPs and MPs that I see, a damn good client.

People of every sexual persuasion have struggles, why do you think I travel 5 hours for quality women? And I don't have to justify my activity to you either.
