Don't post in this thread to say "gay gamers are like everyone else, why do they have a special thread?" It is something that has been posted numerous times, and this isn't the place for that discussion. For regular posters, don't quote the trolls. | ||

However, I'm gonna be 100% honest here, I've only read a grand total of 2 and 1/4th pages in this thread, mainly because (including OP's post) this seems to me, at first glance, a thread where all the gays have come to bitch about how mistreated they are - mostly due to the ignorance of those intolerable savages who constantly pick on you because you're different... which, is true in some way (as evidenced by some of the posts in this very thread by non-gays) but, still, haters gonna hate, and victims are gonna get victimized. So, stop behaving like a bunch of lost, victimized virgins. Thanks. PS: TotalBalanceSC2 - The 'Dating, how's your luck?' thread doesn't specify that it is a straight only thread. In fact, I took the liberty of doing the research for you and found every page in that thread in which the word "gay" is used. Check out the most comprehensive post in there with the word gay in it: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=273445¤tpage=27 It is the very last post on the page. It is fucking advice to a gay introvert on meeting people. The rest of the posts? "He didn't fuck her? Must be gay." <--- totally legit sentence, given that the people I hear throw the word fag around the most, are gays themselves. So, please, for the love of anything anyone finds worthy of loving - You're gay. That does not necessarily mean that you're stupid. It also does not make you a victim. It also doesn't mean that everyone who doesn't like you is a bigot, as I'm sure you've met grown ass gay men before that made you want to smack their mouth shut, just so you didn't have to hear them talk and dance around like a 15 year old school girl in the midst of her worst period, like EVER. I.E: Quit behaving like this thread is your only sanctuary in this website - is this "victim" state of mind that make people hate gays even more. Fuck that. Someone gives you shit, you might be gay, but you still got a man's body, put that bitch in his place and move on. Not everyone's gonna accept you. | ||

Did I hurt you feelings by giving you an honest, down to earth view of a non-gay minority? You know how much shit my brother had to put up with as a poor, skinny, little immigrant gay boy? How many times I had to get into scraps with him against 3 or more people because they wouldn't leave him alone? Yet, you sit from your comfortable little chair in suburbia (I'm not gonna lie, so do I, because I worked for it) crying because people don't understand you. The only point I'm trying to drive home is that maybe, just maybe... JUST maybe, people would like gays a little more if most of them did not behave like such whiny queens. It's not the lawyer that goes home and dresses in drag and takes it all night long that people care about. It's the queen that screams hate crime every time someone calls him a fag for, well, acting like a fag, that people like to pick on. And, from my own personal experiences, a good chunk of the gay community at the very least behaves like the latter. I can name a couple of other minorities that suffer from the same (what I conceive to be) problem. And, yes, the pen may be mightier than the sword. But, damn me if I don't at least try to get good with both. Next time before posting, tell me how anything I've said is oppressive, or insulting to you. No need to call me names for stating my opinion, however invalid it may be to you. We are all equal, remember?  User was temp banned for this post. | ||

Another thing that sometimes suprises or annoys me is people trying to be overly correct about the subject. Just recently when a girl I used to live with told me she had some dude coming over (they are both from my school). I didn't know who she was talking about so when she started describing him I was like: Oh you mean the gay dude?". He is a white guy in a school with mostly white people so him being gay was a distinctive trait. If the guy had a green skin I would've called him the green guy, but still she gets all offended and starts blabbering about me being simple minded etc etc.... People don't know bout the struggles of the demographically avarage ;p | ||

People don't know bout the struggles of the demographically avarage ;p As an american to a dutch there maybe some other cultures. When I hear somebody who uses the word faggot pretty much ever, I generally assume they have some kind of issues with gay folks, or when hearing somebody say "that's so gay" or something of the like, I make the same assumption to a lesser thing. I still hit my roommate from time to time just because after coming back to school he's developed a vocabulary more accepting of things like that. so if that's in your daily speech that might be a reason. Another is, and this is a vast stereotype that most of the gay community holds and is not necessarily true; Religious people scare us. Not all of them of course, but the ones who are very religious such that their religion becomes a defining point about them tend to generally not be accepting of us, and so, in general, we tend to be very wary of coming in closer contact with them. If you find yourself in that kind of position, that's why most people tend to be a little surprised. We're usually fairly defensive on things like that. Also, I don't think I'd use gay as a distinctive trait, but im not in your situation. the flamboyant guy yeah, but there are a lot of gays. Also, excuse the other posts (hopefully) We're a little over-protective from the last poster imo. | ||

That being said, almost always the struggles of the demographic majority pale in comparison to the struggles of the minority. | ||

Anyway I don't assume anyone I meet is likely to be not-ok with gay guys, and none of my friends think that way either, so I find it pretty hard to empathise with your position, BIG. Being 'overly' correct happens I guess (again, not with anyone I know, but meh), as a reaction against what used to be the opposite reaction. Shrugs all round ^^ | ||

The use of struggles is also meant to be And are you comparing non gay bashing white people to unicorns? If so then either things are much much worse than I ever imagined or you are extremely negative. And thanks for the reply silverfoxx. I guess it's just a reaction to years of shitty treatment. Edit: And yeah marvellosity that's usually my reaction as well nowadays. People are just gonna keep surprising you. | ||
