I can’t imagine putting such weight and personal pride in something as basic and biologically primal/primative as sexuality, that it would merit a discussion of almost 6,000 posts.
You shouldn’t have ‘pride’ in your sexuality, you should have pride in stuff that matters, like your character qualities and accomplishments that allow you to be successful.
I can’t imagine being the umpteenth millionth person to come into one of these threads thinking that this post was anything but a waste of everyone’s time.
Being gay is important to people who are gay, being a person of color is important to people of color, representation matters and is important, if you lack an understanding of that idk what to tell you
I’m gay and a person of color and I am proud of both facts
I’m here. I’m queer. I kill bosses. I loot gear.
I’m working on a double major. I’m an entrepreneur. I run a student org, an LGBT+ discord at University, I’m part of a fraternity. I’ve won an award for my writing. I know seven programming languages. I sold my first painting in second grade for enough money that of adjusted for inflation would pay for a brand new ipad. I’m also trans and asexual and aromantic and childfree. I have a 145 IQ, that’s in the 98th percentile of intelligence, can do calculus in my head.
No, that’s a fact. Both socially and scientifically. It’s in our legislation and in (most) western cultures.
The difference between your statement and mine is that you have to convince people something that’s not in effect will cause more harm than good, even though everyone else agrees its a universal good.
Handing me a survey about how 14% of two-thousand-ish people feel better after getting surgery does not prove anything. It’s not even factual.
ok, yes, technically the statement itself was fact.
What’s nowhere in the same universe as a fact is the idea that caring for the mental health of a person is in any way, shape, or a form supposed to be considered abuse.
This is what you are dancing around.
You’ve got bigoted feelings you’re trying to pass along as fact and you try so so hard to dodge the question when you get called on to back that up with anything other than your barest of assertions.
So come on. If this is harmful, show me the study that says that it is harmful.
Oh yeah I normally post on Lannisterian, but all my characters are Lannister inspired, I did have to make a guild (Casterly Rock for my Horde Tich and another for my Alliance Proudmoore) for my characters though because someone decided to impersonate me which I didn’t appreciate but generally I enjoy posting on what ever character I’m enjoying the most playing which as it so happens is this Paladin
No, I’m just telling you what the bill is for. You’re the one going off on tangents about mental health and suicide rates when you can’t even produce the studies that the bill did increase said suicide rates.
You’re projecting so hard into the argument, it’s a bit concerning.
