    This comment section, holy shit.

    scrolls up

    Yep, this is still the meme with the states of matter.

    Look at yourselves. Bunch of Redditors.

    Thank you, that other meme made me think of this. The world isn’t simple people. Nuance everywhere.

      I want LGBTQ+/Straight people to just shut up about it

      That’s nice. I just want to exist, without the growing fear of being attacked or murdered in the street.

      In my experience, someone who claims to be in the middle is actually on the right but has miraculously realized that makes them an asshole in today’s political climate so they pretend to be “in the middle”.

          As fellow an enlightened centrist myself, I often recommend the compromise of letting gays marry, but taking away their voting right.

          Yet, the liberals are outraged by this idea, unwilling to meet in the middle.

          So who’s the radical now?

          \s

            Honestly, I say split marriage up into a government contract that has all the benefits for everyone, don’t call it marriage but call it something else. THEN, deem “Marriage” a purely theatrical thing that anyone can hold a ceremony for and let that be the end of it. Get rid of the “you have to be in love” requirement, and just call it a day.

      I’m kind of in a gray area too

      You’re just an asshole. How very privileged of you to tell people to shut up about wanting to not be belittled, harassed, and killed for something they have no control over.

      Don’t ask don’t tell failed because the stigma of being different forces you into silence and trying to conform.

      Do I want to hear if you’re a “top” or a “power bottom”? No. I don’t want to hear about anyone’s bedroom preferences.

      That doesn’t mean that I want you to never talk about your significant other, regardless of their gender.

      You can separate bedroom preferences from love preference, and the inability to do so speaks pretty loudly about how you view your own relationships.

      Well said. Keep you personal details to yourself. Keep yourself out of the personal details of others.
