Well, it wasn't a compliment. Perhaps just think about it next time. Especially when you're on the topic of supporting one identity group, being unpleasant to another could be seen as being a tad hypocritical. "Beware that, when fighting monsters...", etc..

I feel for those young people struggling with this.

Obviously, YOU'RE talking about it more than you did 30 years ago. I don't, and IMHO, think they've turned people off with their annoying silliness. Haven't learned anything new, except how annoying and self centered special interest groups are. I actually think I'm less open minded about the issue now than when I was a teen and in my 20s. 30s & 40s I was too busy living, 50s & 60s, just annoying, and I'd have to have kids in a western school. Frankly think they've done themselves a dis-service. Before, most people I know could care less, now, many despise them and don't want to be around them, or their propaganda near their children.

I don't give a toss about what you describe as LBGs "issues", I was commenting about their civil rights which are exactly the same as anyone else of the majority sexual leaning community. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you don't understand is that that civil right, unlike that of straight marriage can be taken away on a whim. This is already being spoken of in some states of the U.S. which is why Biden brought in the Respect for Marriage Act that legally protects same-sex and inter-racial marriages from being banned by state laws. De Santis and possibly Trump would reverse this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVENKEEL Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Here in Thailand it's no big deal. TV sit coms wouldn't be complete without a chubby ladyboy screaming. It's just not a big deal. In Isaan I heard a husky voice outside the bedroom window, looked down and saw a set of chubby legs with daisy dukes. ahahaa goes by the name Pancake. The teller dude at our bank wore deep red lipstick and was flirting for fun. None of this is a problem, nobody cares. Now go to the US and see the difference, JHC. Why do the guys feel the need to dress like clowns. They're their own worst enemy. I worked in an envoronment where everyone was excepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
