Why LGBT Representation matters

And because I don’t wish to get banned, I’m stepping away. The desire to quote South Park is becoming just a bit too irresistable LOL

You’re being pedantic.

You know what they meant.

If anything, they are over represented.

Am I quoting south park? I haven’t watched it since I was a kid. Lol.

Well when someone is being passively homophobic about choices and stuff yeah just homophobia. It’s not always about straight people.

statistically, so are white people

I mean… that same person asked me why I didn’t mention homophobia in a comment I made above.

After I made the blanket statement of “I don’t like to see discrimination based on sexual preference” even. So honestly if you are going to say “I know what they meant” you should say the same to that person.

Not only is it fair to ask, it is a real concern.

Well that’s not settled science. It’s not based on solely physical attractions and it is based on choice. There’s plenty of men and women that made the choice to be with the person they were with, even if they weren’t considered by the public as “Attractive”. A lot of people CHOOSE to be with each other because of principles, morals, financial reasons, etc. Some people also CHOOSE to not be a homosexual, because they tried it, and it wasn’t for them.

No. I want to quote South Park. Youtube Kanye West South Park and you’ll see what I’m resisting LOL

Are you trying to beat around the bush and say I’m “heterophobic”? I’m not. It’s just not always about straight people.

Some people handle it better than others. I’m not trying to excuse anybody’s behaviour, just pointing out that the hostility might be defence mechanism developed out of necessity.

But here in WoW, including an LGBT romance subplot hurts nobody, but acknowledges a currently under represented community of people.

And to the people who have that kind of trauma, it matters a great deal.

It doesn’t matter. Been awfully preachy with these type of threads recently.

Two hundred fifty six shades of kek.

Things bi-curious guys say. At least they tried it to be fair.

…what?

No, I’m just wondering why you made it a point to ask why I excluded homophobia when it was strongly implied in my comment that I don’t like it and then you would neglect to comment on the issue of heterophobia.

Well, never took an arrow to the knee either, pretty sure I wouldn’t like that as well.

Heterophobia is not a rampant issue affecting thousands of adolescents’ mental health like homophobia and transphobia is. You (general you) are not oppressed for being straight. Nor are you ordered by society at large for being straight. It’s just not all about straights.

…ok

I actually work for an organization with men that are very frequently homosexuals and are littered with problems. Drug use and alcoholism in the Homosexual community is a very serious problem. We have many, many, many men that come in and have lived an entire life of homosexuality and then find they don’t want that life for themselves anymore. We help them step away from that life and help them with their Drug use and Alcoholism. It’s sad because some of them don’t even make it, the suicide rates in that lifestyle is horrendous.

I’ll just ask i guess
Are you a homophobe?
