Because it's not the rest of the world that is stupid and silly for stereotyping and thinking like that, it's those gay guys?
I never said that--don't put words in my mouth (or, rather, post
).
Who's to say dressing in women's clothes or having lots of sex or men acting "girly" or theatrical is stupid or silly anyway? It's just what you and a lot of other people don't like.
I never said that either. The first doesn't bother me at all, the second should be obvious (it is to me anyway) and the third is stupid/silly only if the person
is acting.
And once I thought that I could bond with lots of gay guys because we would have more in common than just liking guys. And this Disney love actually proves some of that. Why you're ignoring it is beyond me. I got excited when I heard Disney was something a lot of gay people love. I like the bonding. Now people are trying to destroy it.
I don't get the connection between Disney and fake "girliness" (which is different, in my mind, from simply being the way you are naturally). Gay guys can easily bond, just as
any two people can bond in a friendly way. But that doesn't guarantee that all gay guys will be the same or agree.
I don't understand why you're being so dramatic about this--I've simply been giving an opinion on the subject and for some reason you take that as me trying to "destroy" the common bond that we (and, I would think, everyone else on this forum) share. People still manage to stay friends even when they don't agree on certain subjects.
Also, although I'm not sure it's quite what you meant, I'm actually very liberal. But I personally find it rather extreme for individuals to be conservative or liberal on every subject (the actual act of sex, which is an emotional and loving bond that is beautiful and should be shared and valued between two individuals, is one of the few things I'm "conservative" on, if you could even consider it that; I simply think it devalues human beings and the act of sex itself if you treat it as if it's just pleasure and nothing more--of course, I understand the right that everyone should be able to live and act freely [within harmful limits], I'm simply expressing the fact that discipline is critical to living happily and that it's only reasonable to maintain it in every aspect of life, sex included), simply because there's a time and place for everything.
EDIT: I've been thinking about this for a while, but I probably should stay out of this thread. This section is kind of mostly for blowing off steam and an overly introspective, long-post-making (thread-ruining) poster like me should probably leave well enough alone.
