I mean, you do see the irony of saying that on a website filled with Linux-crazed people, right…?

I can’t remove the downvote, you’ll need to do that yourself.

It’s the same car regardless of location. If you can’t see the parking lines then extrapolate, idiot.

Get a smaller truck, jfc. What if the lines were children?

Agreed!

But there’s also a certain expectation of “flamboyance” from the gay community, or you’re “not gay enough” and I think a lot of self-identifying queer peeps are to blame.

On top of the poor history of the word, I just don’t want to be associated with colourfulness and energy because that’s simply not who I am. People from outside looking into LGBTQ+ assume that that’s who gay men need to be because of media representation… It makes me tired.

Queer. Not all gay men (the one group I can safely speak about) like to be associated with an ex-slur and its connotations.

So just say ‘ad’.

Lmao at people downvoting good advice. I sure hope those mongoloids downvoting you don’t get an aneurysm from their stupidity or something (whoops, almost forgot they wouldn’t understand sarcasm without an /s!)

You sound like you just have a martyr fantasy. That or you actively want your fellow protesters dead.

A racist one, if it isn’t based on data as seen above.

I wish it was, but then there’s posts like the recent Frenchposting in the memes community, you should see the comments.

Non-American here. You all keep making up the vilest “jokes” about French people. The sheer level of ignorance and disrespect deserves nothing but contempt and derision. And that’s what you’ll get from me and most of Europe.

Better learn to cope 😒.

SJW spotted. Getting offended from a pro-lgbt shirt checked off the bingo card.

You must be a troll then. Tagged as such.

I sure am judging you 🤢

We’re literally having this conversation because you just can’t accept that not all men deserve to be placed in your generalisation that men = bad. So when you say I “think it is about me personally”, why not stop generalising then? That’ll solve the issue. Say you pick the bear because of the bad ones out there, and not because no man is trustworthy. That will at least clarify that it’s an argument from emotions and not logic, since if you try to break it down statistically this stops making rational sense.

Everything I asked, since my first comment, was to stop generalising. Why is this so offensive to you that you had to go this far? And for what? You’re basically proving my point that you’re only listening to yourself and have no empathy for the 9/10 other innocent guys you lump together with your generalising.

You’re once again equating me to the worst men you know. Simply because I defend myself from an undeserved insult for being a man. I can’t tell anyone’s orientation either, but what I know is that there is a close to 0 chance of SA from someone who’s not interested in your gender, which is the main “bear” argument.

And of course I’m equating being ostracized and beleaguered by women in general to a punishment, who wouldn’t? Should I stop caring just because I’m not interested in them romantically? No, it fucking sucks to be told along the lines of: you’re part of this group which you have no control over, and thus you deserve all the shit we say online about you, oh but don’t worry it’s not applicable to you specifically, we’d just still pick a bear over your kind, is all.

It’s also permissive to say I can’t complain about you all picking bear and insinuating we’re all equally as bad as the worst out there.

I’m gay, I’m literally part of the group of men who would never be dangerous to a woman. Yet all I hear is all women are scared of the group I belong to (being a man) even though I’ve done nothing to deserve it. Then when I defend myself by bringing up how the math doesn’t check out suddenly I “don’t get it”.

It’s infuriating.

Don’t get me wrong, you’re totally allowed to have fears. But punishing the majority for the mistakes of a minority is literally a war crime. I should be allowed to defend myself as well without backlash.

Of course you’d call it that. Hard to deny your misandry from the past 20 comments though.

Why are you continuously mad at all men?
