Would I do it? No. Not my thing but I respect their right to. Cmon man im not really PC but I wouldn't call em the F word. I just don't use it in my vocabulary. Do you though I don't really care.
Reminds of the Louis CK ep where hes playing cards with his mates and they keep ragging on their gay friend calling him that. He tells em where the origin of it comes from and its pretty gross dude, I wouldn't use it.
Yeah, watched the same episode and never used the word again (not that I've used it that much before). Don't know if it's true though. I just realized it's a nasty word and there's absolutely no reason to use it in any situation.
When you're spewing shit, some of it sticks on you.
Bars r u serious? U think some word is nasty in ur vocabulary so u think its same for everybody and therefore u go to "authorities" to make order/piece? And after u go expose urself as a informer/denunciator/rat/delator/telltale and u are ok with it? :D. I assure u that people just lie to you only because u r doing such things and when they express themselves openly and freely in way u dont agree with they learn very fast that u can not be their friend.
In communist era it was quite popular to be rat for some people.. I heard in Germany people are afraid to say what they think only not to be expelled from some social group or job, but rats have still mouth full of free speech, tolerance and understanding. Hypocrisy of some people has no limits.
How long did it take you to realize you weren’t gay like everyone else?
What lengths did you go to in order to hide the fact you were straight from everyone else?
How many dates with someone of the same gender did you go on because you didn’t want people talking about how you never went out with another guy/girl?
Were you worried about telling your parents that you liked people of the opposite sex?
Did you ever overhear your dad talking with friends and saying how any kid of his that was straight he’d kick to the curb?
Did you have a straight friend who wound up homeless after he told his parents that he liked girls?
Or was he just beaten at school and called a pussy-lover or boob-chaser or fish-packer?
Did you ever try to Pray Away the Straight? Get sent to Straight Camp to try and fix your feelings for the opposite sex?
Did you ever have to sit and listen to political and religious leaders on TV talking about how you, yes you specifically, for liking the opposite sex, were not only doomed to hell and eternal hellfire, but were also solely responsible for the destruction of America, the modern world, marriage, and any natural disaster that occurred?
Who was your favorite straight character on TV? I mean, they probably weren’t -written- as straight, but who did you watch and feel that, even though they’d been written hooking up with someone of the same gender, they just had this.. air about them, this connection with an opposite-sexed costar that just… Well, they -had- to be straight. And it made you feel less alone to imagine that they were. That they could be like you. And thus, you could be like them.
Did you ever promise God that you’d do anything you’d want him to if He’d just let you fall in love/lust with someone of the same gender, so you didn’t have to be so different?
What’s your most notable scar? The one you got from your dad’s punch when he found out you were straight? The one you got from some random kids who jumped you and your boy/girlfriend as you were sneaking out of a straight bar one night? The ones you gave yourself after you found ‘Straightmo’ spraypainted over your locker and none of the teachers did anything about it?
Are you lucky enough to live somewhere you can be openly straight and walk hand in hand with your boy/girlfriend? Or do you have to pretend that you’re just roommates and put up pictures of someone of the same sex whenever your parents come to visit so they think you’re in a proper relationship?
I know it can be hard answering these questions, but that’s what Straight Pride is all about. Taking all the hurt and abuse and terror of the world, and forging it into a kind of strength. Remember, we’re right there with you. There’s nothing wrong with being straight. In fact, it’s something to be proud of.
And maybe someday, your opposite-sex relationship will be as natural and accepted as same-sex ones.
Probably not in your lifetime, admittedly, but someday…
I really don't have anything to say in response to this, but thanks for writing that post. Hopefully it can help give some perspective on why this thread's topic is absurd.
Yeah Jennik, in such context I agree. But for record what was written is "win" over traumatizing experience. Its something different from pride but pride after reaching such success for adequate period of time is healthy.

Rexeos, you are employing a typical bully tactic - unknowingly or not. First you are extremely rude, then you receive a slap at the wrist (which could have been a punch in the teeth) and you immediately assume the position of a victim and try to counter-blame others.
I don't know if you're even realizing it, but take it as a bit of friendly advice - here in an internet forum no one gives a fuck about your behaviour, but if you act like that in real life, you're probably an extremely unpleasant person to be around.
You have to be realistic about these things.

Last post for u as you simply instead of hold to topic you always opening another one and going from one theme to another like some manipulator. I was rude only in ur mind where you instead of taking to consider whole message and stay on philosophical level you focused only what part of context and lowered it to emotional level. In your world homosexual and (removed by support) are equal and when I used word "pervert" not to harm ur soul and to show you the difference and what massage was about you still not getting the point of it. I received no slap and I am no victim. You are rat. Period. If nobody give a fuck about my behavior so why r you doing it? You are hyporcite. And if somebody act like a rat and manipulator he will learn fast that his surrounding is unpleasant. You "extremly" guy.
You act like a Paladin. People like u have problem by hunting your eminent ideals that shield you are holding in hand is stained with blood.
I am not whiling to loose time and energy on you anymore as its actually your "bully tactic" that tries to provoke more absurd conversation here. The question is if word (removed by support) would be on place here and addressed to you. Rat.

This also can be called being a professional victim.

There could be no better way to counter this cynical, pseudo-advocatus-diaboli-shit this thread tried to be. What a shitty thread, what a beautiful posting.
