The Gay Thread

Is it just me, or should there be a "P" in LBGTQZXV6PIL;EFM%.

Pigeosexual is the best.

 

there's a P in that.

 

So has anyone heard the new Ryan Lewis song "Same Love" that's been all over the radio lately? I've been kinda curious as to what members of the gay community think of it.

Talking of course about the message of the song, not the music itself.

 

Excuse u, the correct term is columbisexual.

 

People, learn2english.

Homophobia is a fear of gays, not "lel gaiz r sin. Bad 4kids."

That being said, I must wonder if Heterophobia exists.

 

Homophobia actually isn't a registered phobia. It's an all-encompassing term of people who have a dislike toward gay people because of bias from other sources.


As Morgan Freeman so lightly put it...

 

Watch out, you might just catch the gay.

Anyone else catch wind of this business with the pasta company? It's pretty funny.

 

I'm not gay at all, but I'm here to support you. There's nothimg wrong with it! Just remember,

The ones who care don't matter, but the ones who matter don't care

 

So far I am being accepted for being transgender by most people. Some don't like it like family of friends I have or a few others. But I believe I am way more blessed and lucky than a lot in my community. I am a part of a Tulsa Transgender group, made some friends there, a couple of members are Bronies. My friend Kara (who I met in a local Brony group) is the one who told me about the group. She is like me a M2F transgender who is undergoing transitioning. She like me is into women and a few other trans women in the group are into ciswomen (normal women) although some don't really accept or use the term 'lesbian' to identify themselves. I use the term lesbian myself though. Today is Transgender Rememberance Day and we have a special meeting at a different location than our usual location. I hope I can take my mom. I also told my old friend from years back. He was kind of taken by surprise (he is or was very homophobic) and first question he asked is if I was gay. I told him not all transgender women are into men. And I told him I am lesbian and is still into women like I was before him or anyone else knowing. After that, he became more accepting. But he still refers to me as "Bryant" and uses masculine pronouns. I am going to give him time since this is a surprise to him and accept that calling. But I am getting happier about it. My current girlfriend (who I met through my ex-girlfriend, my ex cosplayed as Rainbow Dash and my current one cosplayed as Fluttershy) accepts me as a transgender, she identifies as bisexual so she isn't seeing it no different than the past relationship with men and women. And I am wondering how I would look like when I become more of a female.

 

Truly an amazing story. Good luck, my friend.

 

I spent some time not sure. then I realised I am straight, but somehow a lot of friends I make (no names) reveal they`re lgbt that for a while I considered if I was for the sheer fact I seem to gravitate to that group.

I know it sounds weird, and Im sorry if I offended anyone, just how I perceieve it.

 

Dunno if this thread is gay, but it went from being in a relationship with the general forum to being with the serious forum, so if those two forums are of different genders then it statistically is not straight.

 

I used to be a homophobic little turd when I was younger, but then I took an arrow to the knee realized that, as long as no one's holding a gun to my head and forcing me to sleep with a man or a transwoman, LGBT lifestyles do not affect my life in any way. As the Wiccans say: "An it harm none, do as ye will." I've got enough on my own plate, so why on earth would I want to burden myself further by worrying about how others choose to live their lives? I'd have to be a very sad individual to do that.

Of course, this isn't to say I'm completely devoid of any prejudices anymore - to be perfectly honest, I still find the stereotypical image of gay men to be quite insufferable. You know, "here they come, floatin' around and making noise", as Peter Griffin puts it. More than anything, it's that personality type that just rubs me the wrong way, so even if I met a straight dude with that type of demeanor, I'd still cringe.

Even so, I've come a long way since the days when I thought the entire gay community was accurately represented by their stereotypes. I'm still continuing to open my mind in many avenues of life...thanks, in no small part, to MLP. Ever since I started watching the show, I've become more tolerant (if not accepting) of people than I've ever been before, so I think there's a pretty bright future ahead of me. A bit strange to think that pastel ponies could do so much to change a person for the better, but I'm not complaining.

I know, old post is old, but I wish I could brohoof you a million times for every point you made here. If there's any type of person in life whom I can honestly say I loathe, it's self-entitled people like these.

 

I still stand by that, too. I just hope gay people aren't pampered with benefits and crap like that when equality finally comes around.

The fact that I will be able to get a job without legally being able to be turned away due to my sexuality is more than enough for me.

 

Even though I am a Republican, I have nothing against homosexuals. I support anyone who is willing to be themselves. Good on ya!

 

Well, for most of my life, I preferred females in pretty much every single way, but when I matured, I started liking guys much more. I'm still, like, 70% gay, but for the most part, gender and gender identity doesn't matter to me.

 

I'm gayer than Neil Patrick Harris.

 

That is a really good preacher. I'd like to shake his hand.
