What I find particularly interesting is that the Confederacy only existed for 4 years, meaning to run around with an Obama flag would more historically relevant than this shit.
I imagine it's much like the pride flag, where people make it their whole personality. I fully expect people to be brandishing some form of pride flag in 150 years, though it will probably look even more silly by then.
Its not about it being their personality its the fact that being gay and out IS a form of defiance and existence IS a crime. People in the US are still killing people for being gay. im not even gonnna bring up the countries that are LITEREALLY sending people to death by law for being gay imagine being persecuted for being who you are born. Existing can become a death sentence, so you fight for your right to have peace of mind for you and your community to just live.
Its a fight for live, not a personality trait.
I've had people try to incite hate against me for being supposedly gay, which is kind of strange since I'm not. I could feel the disgust and viciousness, and this was from a supposedly super-liberal woman who claims to be bi herself. Irony is both of her kids turned out to be gay, ha. Anyway, some people really do want to kill you. It's insane.
I grew up with men saying that lesbians just needed a good f*****g and they would get in line. My aunt is gay so it was VERY confusing because these men knew that.
Her life was very much surrpunded by "the gay are disgusting but not you, youre a good gay" 🙄
I don't understand German but it doesn't mean the language scares me or that I want to ban it.
why pick on the German language? why not Swahili, Portuguese, or Tamil?
I chose one of the 7000+ that are used.
Would you like to add to this conversion or just focus on something inconsequential?
and then tell everyone else about it, like vegans
