Can we stop this?
This goes for everyone: Stop categorizing mfs by their sexuality or preferences. Its weird, stupid, and wrong.
Onto my actual post: I get so tired of seeing shit like " can all the straights get off this website? " Said person receives backlash, and they usually respond with a very long list of crimes against the LGBTQ+ community, and a rant of how straights will and have never been oppressed (for their sexuality, cause we all know thats not true *cough* Great Britain *cough*)
Now, I don't see the problem with the crime list. (as in, theres nothing thats good about it and i understand that those things have happened repeatedly and it is horrible)
I see the problem, that certain members of the community constantly attempt to victimize themselves when things like this are brought to their attention by straights. Especially when there are actual people who actually fall victim to things like this, on a DAILY BASIS. Dont get me wrong here: im not saying it didn't happen. Im saying that it is horrible that certain members of the community attempt to try and make themselves feel victim, in response to " straights " protecting themselves against seemingly heterophobic comments, and then others being proud of being heterophobic.
And not to mention when others make heterophobic jokes, straights defend themselves but gays come and attack them bc but apparently straights have no right to be angry because its a joke and straights have never been oppressed. But making a stupid and idiotic joke like that is not going to help a singe person. Im not asking for anyone to agree with me or anything, im just saying that maybe things like this should stop.
-remember to stay respectful plz! Cause I will respond to your comment in the same tone you responded to mine (●'◡'●)ﾉ
As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I agree with you. We're not going to convince homophobes that we're normal and deserving of equal rights if we start generalizing them they same way they did to us. In fact this kind of behavior just insights more hatred towards us. 2 reply
I know i'm probably gonna get a lot of shit for saying this: but yes. I agree.
I understand that the lgbtq+ community has been through many things and still continues to be discriminated, but the world is slowly changing. And if hating on straights, who COULD have been potential allies, is the change, then i don't want to be a part of it.

I've literally been held at gunpoint over my sexuality. If the most I could say about my sexuality is that people make jokes about it online, I'd take that in a fucking heartbeat.
Heterophobia isn't real. No one is a victim of their straightness. No one is oppressed or discriminated against for being straight. Y'all just want some oppression point...... reply
Y'all this is the same person who started the topic, on being "fed up" with seeing LGBTQ+ representation on Netflix. So are we really surprised that they think that "heterophobia" and "straights being oppressed " is a real thing . 4 reply
Heterophobic jokes?
Straights are oppressed?
Okay, I can see how someone can be hurt by a mean spirited joke, but if I compare it to how ppl are prosecuted and hated and killed merely because they love someone of the same gender....because they LOVE someone. It puts that into PERSPECTIVE.

as a straight person I would like apologize on behalf of the straight freaks yall have to deal with on this website because if I had to deal with that I would have just offed myself. if heterophobia exists--valid at this point. this thread proves that we are beyond clowns , we are clearly the entire circus.
