Exactly this. I wonder why they done that, someone is repressed on the forums? I don't feel like it is the case.

The colors are fabulous! I love 'em.
And I'm glad TL is showing their support. The heat in this thread is not surprising; if anything it validates the necessity of showing our LGBT support.
I think Liquid'Drone's point about the influence of gaming culture on our youth is spot on.

Go and find any thread that mentions Scarlett and the way she's treated by some people.
You have your answer.

Just stopped by to say I think TL did the right thing here. My parents are currently trying to get their congregational church to declare itself Open and Affirming (IE any gender identity/sexuality friendly), and their efforts seem to be paying off (a paper ballot vote will be taken one of these days, which in itself is great progress). In a religious setting I think declaring this message to be very important, as the literature which forms the core of each sermon/Sunday service has plenty of discriminatory notions and bigoted tenants which can make an entire section of your community shy away.
A gaming site might be just as important a place to declare a stance, since language like "that's so gay" and "u homo?" etc is used frequently without much thought given to it.
If you are put off by the current coloring of the logo, just consider what a minor inconvenience it is to you to have to look at it, compared to the message it sends to those who are still searching for true equality with their hetero countrymen.

Nice to see the TL staff doing its part to advance the sinister homosexual agenda

I'd prefer to pretend your sarcasm towards me didn't exist (I have also been reading the whole thread). Many people seem to forget the purpose of sex, opinionated as we are. It might be a harsh viewpoint, but it is one with valid grounds. Why is there only one purpouse to sex? Sex has plenty of purpouses. Enjoyment being the primary one in society. The prescribed evolutionary purpose of sex is to reproduce. Enjoyment serves as a means to an end. Humans being unlike other mammals, we have attributed other purposes to sex (going against the nature of the act). But that still does not change the fact that offspring are born only one way...
So what about in vitro fertilization? Should we ban or not support Vasectomies anymore either? Condoms? The pill? Should male female anal intercourse also be looked down upon?

You are not supposed to put your P into a B. You can't be fucking serious. You're also "not supposed to" use your H on your P, but I have a feeling you did that before. You are right sir and I would understand it, if you are discriminating me for this. Now I don´t understand why ever one goes like "Oh gays are most normal thing in the world". When I was born gay was an illness! And Pluto was a planet. When you were born people were wrong. Yeah only that never ever ever people will say: Oh look, we can reproduce by using buttsex. NEVER! So? Might be fun.
While a little painful it's so, so fun. :3

What I don't get is why does it matter if sex means one thing with respect to evolution? Are you literally only focusing your life on making sure that your genes are passed on to another generation? Is that your reason to be? If it is I feel bad for you.

it saddens my heart a little bit what some people here think about that issue. i'm a much simpler man in this reggard, to me it's all the same love and who the hell am i to juged anyone: in macklemore's words: "It's human rights for everybody, there is no difference!´Live on and be yourself"
on a more possitiv note, i love the tl logo with the rainbow colors. is there a way to get it as a wallpaper?

Hi. I posed a challenge in one of my previous posts that you chose to ignore (but you answerd my other post that was RIGHT beneath that one, guess you missed it)
Can you honestly say that you can "control" the kind of women (assuming youre male) youre attracted to? If so, prove it by writing down what you find LEAST attractive with a woman and then go date women like that. If attraction is a choice you should just be able to find the least attractive feat of these women the most attractive. Right?
(oh and addition; these are the only women you may date from now on)

Damn those conniving gays, sneaking into positions of power to push their gay agenda and now they've got into Team Liquid! What about us straight people, its only a matter of time before society as we know it collapses.
Seriously though I would hope the majority of team liquid believes in racial equality, it blows my mind that so many people can't see that their homophobic views are no different to racist views. I hope that in 100 years people can look back at now and say "I can't believe our laws used to be so prejudaced towards gay people" in the same way we do now towards old racist and sexist laws. Race and sexual preference are not the same. One is controllable. The other is not. I do not hate or vilify gays. I simply disagree with what they are doing. It goes against our biological design. It is a distortion. But I do not hate a person if they choose to do that. Like many other opinions, I simply disagree with them. I try not to let that color my interactions with that person or group. Part of being rational is learning to carry your opinions rather than dropping them on people with a sledgehammer. Many of the people here choking out anti-gay sentiments should learn to do the same. If you really think that sexual preference are controllable, then you might be bisexual or pansexual. I am heterosexual. I think sexual preference is controllable. I am open to being proven wrong. If not, then there is still the grounds of an evolutionary anomaly. I told you, I simply disagree with your viewpoint. I know that by expressing myself like this I am bound to come under fire. Go have sex with a man and enjoy it. If preference is controllable, decide to be gay for a day. And evolution doesn't have "anomalies." You really don't understand evolution if you think it just makes stuff bad at survival and then lets it keep living.
I told you I was bound to come under fire.
What exactly are you getting at here? Are you telling me that I have no grounds to think what I think? "You really don't understand evolution if you think it makes stuff bad at survival..."
What?
It doesn't matter whether or not I enjoy having sex with a man, I would still be choosing to do it. Is that a harsh viewpoint? Abso-fucking-lutely. Is it still the one I ascribe to? Yes. Psychologically, most behaviors are learned. But there are grounds to think either way.

How would you react if one day....your father revealed to you that he wants to undergone surgery to transform himself to a woman and share the same bed with another man?
Would you be happy? If a genie appeared and allowed you turn him 'straight' and wipe his memory.... would you do it?
I'd be okay with my father being gay. As long as he's happy.
No I would never use a genie to wipe someone's memory or to change who they are.

Yes, when other mammals have sex they are clearly doing so with the intent to reproduce.

Just kidding! I know this is not a political agenda but a matter of supporting a group of people which is oppressed on a daily basis.

Human aren't the only animal who have sex for pleasure. Chimpanzee, bonobos and dolphin also do.
Evolution is not just about individual survival and reproduction. Homosexuality is actually useful in an evolutionary context. For a simple example, in a tribes setting, an homosexual won't have kid so he is more likely to care and protect other children and thus increase the chance of survival.
