Another version I have heard is...Arguing on the internet is like wrestling with a pig in shit. Sooner or later you realize the pig is enjoying it

Try saying that {whatever name} Jenner is a man and see how you are vilified for doing so.

I'm not a celebrity so on a large scale, nobody gives a sh*t what I say on a large scale but just role through the scenario in your mind of what would happen if some celebrity, pick any one you want, made a public statement and referenced Jenner as "he", "him", "man", etc. You know damn well that they would be absolutely crucified for it.

Even as a non-celebrity, hop on the bookface or any other social media platform and make a post of that same nature. What do you think the result would be?

Good point. So is Bruce Jenner the Olympian dead ? Is it like reincarnation ?

There's no doubt about that. Which is really part of the reason that this subject annoys me in general. Whether someone is gay, straight, or somewhere in the middle has absolutely no impact on my life. I simply don't care. The problem is that everywhere I go, someone is trying to tell me that who they screw is important to me. Every time I turn on the TV, it's front and center... some show making a point to be as gay as possible. Every day it seems that someone is holding a damn press conference to tell the world that they are gay.

Really, who cares? Maybe as a straight, white male my perception is skewed but I really do feel like 1 of the biggest drivers behind NEGATIVE reactions to gays is that regular people who are otherwise indifferent keep getting it thrown in their faces to the point that it becomes a negative.

...and yea, I do realize that I clicked and responded to this thread voluntarily.

A bit? Do you honestly believe that the amount of flak on this subject is the same as others?

Any person who is not 100% flag waiving pro-gay is destroyed by these people. I am not talking about someone who is actively seeking to harm or oppress individuals. Simply saying that you don't personally agree with the lifestyle gets you attacked.

Ask Carrie Prejean about that one.

Quote:
Well, I think it's great that Americans are able to choose one way or the other. We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage. And, you know what, in my country, in my family, I think that, I believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman, no offense to anybody out there. But that’s how I was raised and I believe that it should be between a man and a woman.
Remember that? The fact that you even know what I am talking about, the fact that I even know this woman's name is a testament to the situation. Some completely irrelevant beauty pagent contestant becomes public enemy number 1 because of that comment. She stated her OPINION and based on the reaction, you would have thought she was rounding up homosexuals and decapitating them.

If a celebrity used the word "him" in reference to Jenner, it would be the top story on every media outlet and it would not be over until "they" had done everything possible to make sure that the person's career was absolutely destroyed. When it comes to this subject, people are actively LOOKING for villains and LOOKING for things to be offended by.

Acceptance is simply not enough. These people want agreement and they will attack anybody who doesn't comply. I have said it multiple times but it bears repeating. I don't care who someone is attracted to. I don't care who someone screws. It is a zero impact whatsoever on my life, but if you try to FORCE me to be on your side, chances are that I am going to go the other direction. Maybe it's because I am a stubborn asshole, but simply I do not like people telling me what to think.

And they will try to force you. Case in point; Ben Shapiro and Zoey Tur(Robert Albert Tur)

Good video on how they leftest respond to any kind of opposing thought.

A young boy went up to his father and asked him,
'Dad, what is the difference between 'potentially’ and 'realistically'?'

The father thought for a moment, then answered.
'Go ask your mother if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars. Then ask your sister if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars, and then ask your brother if he'd sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars.
Come back and tell me what you learn from that.

So, the boy went to his mother and said, 'Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?'
The mother replied 'Of course I would! We could really use that money to fix up the house and send you kids to a great University!'

The boy then went to his sister and asked, 'Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?' The girl replied 'Oh my Gawde! I LOVE Brad Pitt. I would sleep with him in a heartbeat, are you nuts?'

The boy then went to his brother and asked, 'Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?'
'Of course,' the brother replied. 'Do you know what a million bucks would buy?'

The boy pondered the answers for a few days and then went back to his dad.

His father asked him, 'Did you find out the difference between potentially' and realistically'?'
The boy replied, 'Yes, I think so. “'Potentially' you and I are sitting on three million dollars, but 'realistically', we're living with two whores and a queer.”
