So how come straight people aren't allowed to have flags?

I have a co worker who's lesbian.

I had NO IDEA she was lesbian until I saw her facebook profile with her hand in hand with another woman.

Know what I did? Shrugged and moved on like it was normal.

That's how it's suppose to be.

Now if she's waving a flag and preaching gay pride in my face I'd get annoyed now. I don't think she wants that. I certainly don't want that.

I don't parade around in her face that I like to sleep with asian woman. She wouldn't want that. And I certainly don't feel the need to do it.
Exactly. Just live your life. No need to grand stand. When they do that, they are hunting for attention.
 
Who do you think would be crying, exactly? I think you're a victim of propaganda and dont realize it yet, sammy.
Well there would certainly be outrage. Noone can ever explain why it's ok to have a BET and not a WET except the same old argument, "Because every other channel is WET!"
 
Look man...I get your frustration and you have a point. But if you're interested in honest engagement I'll tell you this...I live on the border of a gay community in San Diego and I love the city I am in. I have 0 issue with any of it and I always supported peoples right to live and let live.

But there are gay flags everywhere here...constant reminders every where you go of who owns this town. It's almost like if Isis took over a city except replace the Isis flags and constant reminders with gay rights stuff. Many of the criticisms I had of old white Christians growing up including things like 1) Their perspective on life was invasive 2) Constantly telling us what is right and what is wrong etc are now philosophies the gay rights organizations have adopted.

In fact the gay rights organizations unfortunately stole the hand book on Christian values and just put their values in and now they're forcing children in the local area to learn the gay lingo, etc. I am not saying gay people are like this but the gay rights organization is unfortunately doing their best job to impersonate the Christian groups I dealt with as a kid growing up here.

My point simply being that the irritation with gay tribalism is very valid and not all of us are constantly going to be stuck in the past about what they went through and try to justify it by their irrational actions today.

This is a valid argument.

I will respond to this properly later tonight or tomorrow. work beckons (well lunch and then some work deliverables/meeting).
 
See, you come off as disingenuous when you support ones rights, but discount others. You could have made a great point in this post without the last sentence.

Discounting other people's rights? Show me a part of the post where I do that?

You have every right to start a parade for straight people. It will be my right to laugh at your efforts for being a sensitive little cunt cause the argument apparently is "LGBTQ have flags and do a parade.. why can't we straight people have one!?..."
 
Weird day for me ... Find myself agreeing with Ripskater. (Probably to different reasons though.)

Straight people have never been persecuted for their sexual orientation and have never had to fight for their right to be treated as equals. Thus, no need for a flag to rally behind.

Having a straight pride flag doesn't really have a point other than to diminish the importance of the pride flag or to create a feeling of hostility towards LGBTQ people.

So you are an Islamaphobe?
 
It was more or less an all-white miss American from 1921 to 1970 with a few exceptions...

Rule #7: contestants must be of good health and of the white race" - that rule was in effect till the 1950 and people had to prove that their lineage had no black ancestry. The first black contestant was in 1970. Surprisingly the first Asian contestant was from Hawaii back in 1948 and the first Jewish contestant won it all in 1945 although she was pressured to change her name to something less Jewish and she refused. After she won the tourney, 5 pageant sponsors withdrew from having her represent their company as the Miss America representative.

But yes please pretend history of institutionalized racism wasn't part of the USA's past...
wow, you sure read a lot into my post. where did i say racism wasnt part of our past? in your desperation to be a victim (or put victimhood on a race you are not part of), did you assume members of the lgbqt community did not suffer from discrimination as well? Obviously not. all i said is that the arguments are the same. so please, go cry to someone who gives a shit

I personally don’t give a shit about a straight people anything...I only scoff at the hypocracy. I’m just having fun with all of this.

I agreed with your point. You just seem like a dick by throwing in a jab that you didn’t need.
 
It's not "seem"... I am a dick...
Well, there it is.

No worries dude. Unfortunately a lot of people with your views come off the same way, which makes the debates more fun.

Carry on dick.

Better than to be thought of as a cunt which is what I think you and the others are in this thread...

last I checked dicks fuck cunts...
then again... maybe not in this thread...
 
Rampant steroid abuse, fixed fights, yakuza pulling the strings, freekshow fights (not totally opposed to those mind you). So much better.

Oh I was just making the standard Pride comments as a joke.

Pride did have some great entrances and that crazy screaming Japanese woman.
 
Actually, it is. It highlights a vapid counterargument. That in itself is a counterargument.

This, on the other hand, is more empty whinging.
I guess it's an argument the same way saying the sky is blue is an argument.
But either way saying what he said isn't an argument is pretty dumb, nowhere on sherdog does it say every post is an argument.
To me he was just making an observation which you felt the need to comment on and try to demean, you big man you.
 
Taking pride in something you were born as is dumb. It's not an accomplishment. It's nothing to be proud of.
 
Cause they already have one TS...

His was a glib comment intended to mock and deflect, but you seized on my comment, which points that out, rather than on his, which was the first cause.

You guys don't have an argument to defend this hypocritical, discriminatory attitude, but you appear to passively support it. Find an argument, or be "demeaned" for not having the courtesy to be quiet in the absence of one.

Are you guys arguing about arguments?

This is some next level war room stuff
 
No I don't want the flag or even like it

I just can't believe the hatred and people wanting the flag taken down - offended by a flag ffs - saying they wouldn't support any village businesses and ruin the town what the fuck

And yes I'm everywheres
Most people out rallying for these “causes” are pieces of garbage
