Escaping the 'Gay Culture'

[Ostroeuropa]

Do you play games?

Not really.

(Note, while answering this, that you are posting on a forum for a game.)

An attempt at tu quoque which fails since I do not participate in the game on this site.

It is entirely normal that while one can agree piracy is, on the whole, wrong, and nonetheless engage in the activity.
Doubtless, pyromaniacs are aware they are wasting resources. Nonetheless...

Really? Is that why mathematicians are prized in Baseball? Is that why coach strategy is probably the most valuable asset in American Football?

Are they producing papers or making Fields medal worthy contributions to the field of mathematics?

I confused. Do you hate chess and go as well?

There is a strong divide in the LGBT community over effeminate (sissy) + affected men. The ones who hate them, the ones who hate those hating them, the ones who are them, and the ones wholly indifferent or alienated from the controversy.

In Brazil the latter group is almost non-existent. Perhaps in cultures where gender roles are more liberated there isn't such a strong issue about it, and you both escaped. But I didn't saw people who didn't knew about it, before.

So you presumed we were ignorant then tried to educate us with a source we can't read?

Only insofar as they act to distract humanity from intellectual progress.

I will translate. -__-

[Jello Biafra]

Interesting. Do you tend to associate flamboyance with a particular group of people?

No.

So then you don't have a problem with "gay culture"?

No, she thought we were ignorant and assumed that since we are ignorant we must be straight.
Since gay people are never ignorant about this subject, or are almost-non existent.
Which strikes me as prejudiced.

So does posting here, genius.

[Ifreann]

Get a job, long hairs!

I wonder if the degree of his hatred is proportional to hair length. Then I could be his archenemy! MWAHAHAHA.

With an evil laugh like that you may just have a future in comic book villainy. I don't suppose you have access to a catsuit with a boob window?

I was under the impression that the purpose of this forum was intellectual discussion. In addition, I do not hate games as a whole. As I said, I hate when they become a distraction from intellectual progress.

I am curious how participating in this forum, in and of itself, is a productive use of cognitive and financial resources - and specifically, how it is a MORE productive use of cognitive and financial resources than participating in a forum discussing fashion.

I'm done following this train of questioning. You're fruitlessly trying to create a narrative where disliking flamboyance and associating flamboyance with gays means you hate gays and hate flamboyance for it's association with them.

NA won't let me borrow it.

You've just said that you don't associate flamboyance with gays (or any other group of people).

Hence fruitless.

Do you like Gangsta's?
You know, stereotypical black people.
People who fulfill the stereotype do exist. I dislike them.
In fact, people who fulfill almost any stereotype are bound to be incredibly annoying fucks, since stereotyping is done as a way to denigrate people by other groups. It's an insult. They point to the most annoying or awful people who are in your demographic and say "You are all like them."
What I cannot fathom is why the Gay priders, the people who fulfill the gay stereotype, decided to go out and be all in everyones faces about it.
If a bunch of Gangsta's started doing that, and worse, started calling it "Black culture" how would you react, if you were a black person?
You'd probably be like
"Fucking stop that you asshole."

Perhaps so, because if you don't have a problem with "gay culture" then we don't have a particular reason to be arguing.
Nice pun, by the way.

[Ostroeuropa]

Or better, when the klan starts marching around proclaiming it's a white culture parade.
As a white person, how does that make you react.
As a bisexual, I react the exact same way to the pride parades.
They are a stereotype, a complete parody of who I am. They can be like that if they want. Fine. I dislike it, but fine.
Just stop calling it gay pride.

[The Steel Magnolia]

White culture isn't a subculture.

Missing the point.
Labeling a culture after a demographic when it isn't all-inclusive or even DESCRIPTIVE of that demographic, is discriminatory and perpetuates stereotypes.
Cut it out.
The point of that post was that renaming a culture to something more appropriate isn't someone "Taking" your culture from you, and it's childish to say otherwise.

Except it's not about queer pride, it's about being queer.

if you don't want to be a part of that, fine. You're not queer, you're just gay.

[The Parkus Empire]

I was under the impression that the purpose of this forum was intellectual discussion.

Discussion, yes. Progress, fuck no. You want progress, getting active is how it's done. This is just an intellectual circle jerk and/or dogpile.

In addition, I do not hate games as a whole. As I said, I hate when they become a distraction from intellectual progress.

Define "distract", then source where any game impeded "intellectual progress" (whatever that is).

Can someone be queer and heterosexual cisgendered?

[Jello Biafra]

What I cannot fathom is why the Gay priders, the people who fulfill the gay stereotype, decided to go out and be all in everyones faces about it.

In general, if you do not tell the majority of people that you're gay, they will assume otherwise.

Unintentional.

So mention you are gay.
Thats fine.

Then prove your super-villainy by heisting it.
