He said oxymoron. That's not the same as moron.
@Mike403
He's looking them up now. 🤣🤣🤣
you lot
Seems you discredited the English language.
He probably became offended when I said oxymoron because he thought, “I’m not a moron. I know the difference between meth and oxy. I do both everyday.”
@Trap_Muzik no one is forcing anything onto you by existing, but since it's a special month you chose to disrupt, you can enjoy that long spent in forum timeout... and that's me feeling generous. Cya❤️
Comment flagged & removed. My counter question would be why can't people celebrate who they are without comments like these coming along trying to spark a debate? This site is about comfort, so why is it so hard to let people be? If it's really so hard for you to contain your thoughts, feel free to message me but anymore comments venturing off topic into social politics or ruining the vibe will continue to be deleted. The LGBTQA community already face enough scrutiny in real life as it is. We shouldn't have to face it here too. [Shake49]
We are forced to celebrate men who pretend to be women
Who is forcing you? You can simply carry on with your life and not get so angry. I mean, are you that mentally weak that someone is forcing you?
-If you were born with a wiener than you're a man or male (same thing) and will forever be a man. if you were born with an extra set of lips and reproductive organs, then you are a woman or a female (same thing) and will forever be a woman.
They call this an opinion.
And why, if you consider yourself tolerant, do you not just ignore this thread instead of crapping all over it? That would really be tolerance. No one crapped all over the veterans thread. Nor should they. Just because you confuse your opinion with fact does not mean you need to belittle another group from being honored.
And as much as I thoroughly disagree with your points that is not the point of this post. Tolerance is. Tolerance is allowing that which you may not agree with to live freely without harassment, judgement or verbal condemnation. You show tolerance through silence when you disagree.
@Sooson your rant on a thread supoorting those in the community who are LGBTQ and allies of those who are is really not appropriate. Not the time and place for it. This is not a debate and argue thread. Hell knows I'm certainly not innocent when it comes to rants and vomiting my unsolicited opinions, but you are absolutely in the wrong for this . You can have your opinions and beliefs, I'm not even going to argue that because I don't have to agree with you in order to support your right to free speech and your own thoughts. But read the room .
And FYI my son is LGBTQ and his partner is trans. So I suggest you tread lightly with the disrespect.
@BoomerSpooner I'm tolerant. Very tolerant . I specified clearly what I'm not tolerant of and what should NOT be celebrated. Some of that stuff is quite funny and entertaining but mutilating kids is not and forcing women to shower with men is and compete against men is sports is not.
By "forced" i meant its in my face everywhere I go. Thats all .
Just a quick note, it’s also men’s mental health awareness month
@the_benergy96 thank you for bringing that up , as mens mental health is very often overlooked and under treated.
.But read the room .
@pmvines that definitely cuts to the chase.
Thoughts and blessings to all in the LGBTQ+ community. Just looking at posts from some “tolerant” people you definitely need them.
HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!
You don't have to agree with it. You can simply ignore the thread and it won't affect you.
@BoomerSpooner you know all to well that I can get pissy and hijack a thread or 3, but I try to maintain some semblance of respect and civility. One thing I'm fiercely protective of is my son. I'd murder an army to keep him from harm . So for me at least, an insult to the rainbow community is an insult to him and therefore, an insult to me .
@Sooson I'm going to ignore the bulk of your bullet points that sound like you spent the last few hours watching Fox "news", but I have to call out one false equivalency I am soooooooo sick of hearing:
"Why do Blacks and the LGBTQ community get a whole month and veterans get a day?!?!?!?"
Yes, it is true that Veterans get one day and we also have another special day to remember those who died defending the country (which ironically people of your ilk tend to confuse with Veterans day).
But you do realize that America basically spends the other 363 days of the year respecting Veterans too, right? Veterans get special discounts and even preferential treatments with bank financing. And we are all fine with that. When my dad wears his military cap, countless strangers come up to him and thank him for his service, offer to buy his lunch, carry his bags or salute him. We can't watch any sporting events without them "shoving military pride down our throats" (might as throw a well worn phrase back at you so you can see how insulting it feels).
[EDIT - I took out a longer rant on my own accord so as not to open up a bigger cans of worms]
@pmvines I support your right to get pissy with this thread. It should be a safe zone, not a place for intolerant people to explain how they are tolerant while telling a whole group what they are not.
@pmvines you are an awesome man and I read your posts and know about your son and about what you do for a living. I appreciate you .and by all means no need to return a compliment. Feel free to let me have it . I never flag a post or run to the mods like some here do. If you scroll up this thread you will see quite a few unprovoked comments directed at "transfobes" , so I said what I had to say.
But as you rightly stated , not a debate room so I will stop here.
@Sooson
mutilating kids is not and forcing women to shower with men is and compete against men is sports is not.
And people like you wonder why you get called transphobic when you spew this kind of anti-trans hatemongering. And you have the gall to call yourself tolerant. Clearly, that's a lie.
@Unscented_Lemon please explain what exactly is transfobic about showing concerns about the rights of women and minors ?
@sooson Really? GTFO with this nonsense. What about all the men who abuse the rights of women and minors on a daily basis? Those who live in glass houses......Honestly you are digging an ever deeper hole...and yes it is indeed a fear you have.
Interesting article I just found about LGBTQ refugees within the US. Including a map of where it is actively unsafe to be transgender.
@MrAdmirer the type of abuse you are referring to is not supported by politicians and by institutions. And the offenders are punished when caught (hopefully) And why are you so mad. Debate politely, show some tolerance for opinions of others.
@Sooson There's nothing transphobic (it's spelled with a "ph" not an "f", as has been shown many times) about showing concerns about the rights of women and minors. But that's not what you're doing. You're just showing hatred against transgender people by repeating anti-trans propaganda. Your exclusion of men also helps make that obvious.
If you were concerned about peoples' rights, you wouldn't be supporting making anyone's existence illegal. Yes, that is happening. Look at Florida and Texas or just about any conservative state.
@sooson don't play the "be polite and civil" card. You have been anything but
@Unscented_Lemon i am not against anyone's right to exist. If this is happening I'm 100 percent against it. Equal rights to all. What propaganda? I'm referring to facts. I have nothing against transgender lol. I party with trsnsgenders . You don't even know me.
@Sooson "If"? Are you saying you're not bigoted, you're just incredibly ignorant? I hate to tell you, but misinformation from Fox "News" is propaganda, not facts. Try actually talking to some of those transgender people you supposedly party with. Try reading the article I posted. Then you'll no longer be saying "if" unless you choose to disregard everything it says.
I know your words, and your words are transphobic. That's all I need to know about you.
@Unscented_Lemon I don't even know what channel fox is on. Sean Hannity is a tool and I have zero respect for him. You assume alot about me
On a related note, I was just reading an article about how "45", just a mere decade ago, was pro trans women competing in the Miss Universe pageant. Gee, I wonder what could have POSSIBLY made him do a 180 on this subject? P.T. Barnum knows. I guess his cultists would say he got 'woke' before the term was even coined.
Reported and reviewed. More hate spewed by a forum troll. Removed. [Charlie_Bear]
