hi @yeedak thank you so m uch for replying with what you did. YAY ADHD!!!!! ur partner sounds like she rocks >:) as do u

i found it really illuminating and i agree with all of it. and god as much as i understand reticence when black people are interracially dating (it is so hard) i also hate it when people dictate it and also to a degree that it makes it extremely uncomfortable for the person themselves. to me it really is about a sense of control particularly if you are a woman. constantly trying to pick someone’s life partner for them instead of letting them find out if it’s a) something they want or even want to do b) something they can handle and c) their experience. it can purely cultural as well. my mom is a black american but my father is nigerian and that was basically a sin. however my father’s siblings? the women who had to marry extremely quickly and had to be with nigerian men or at the very least african? divorced. because they had to clamor for love for approval, pop out babies, and look what that got them. i totally understand you and your mother. and you’re right about all of it.

the idea of a man whore is so funny to me too because it’s not about sexual liberation it’s literally about them wanting to use people as disposable which is why sexual liberation for women as well can be confusing. but all of this isn’t so we can develop our own imaginations and find out our own inhibitions. like you said in all of it and i found this part very very interesting and true, “youth is for sex and no mention of asexuality.” when you get older you are not sexual, when you are a child you are unsure about it, but there’s a time in our lives where we shouldn’t waste it, where it’s only acceptable in that window, where it’s dictated. tangentially i think it’s very funny that the people we sleep with also become a point of pride. let’s say if he is a man (as a bisexual~**~ gorl) but he’s ugly, i should be ashamed, too?

so much boxing in and pushing and dictating. they really are here to spread a message. and i know things ar ehard. i can believe people ask you that but it’s still so.....weird? i remember saying something about my sexuality once and it’s not like i knew the people but then they started asking me questions and i honestly felt embarrassed and like an outsider. i dunno.

and your analogy of a mirror was perfect woaaaaaaah that’s what im gonna say now thank you so much credit to you. gENIUS!!! as real life changes, what we see changes. but media doesnt come first.

also totally agree about watching what people consume and not falling into those patterns. and when “bad” things are shown i do not understand why shows are so scared to show them as they are or not romanticize. a real issue to introduce when it comes to age gaps would be why it is frequent in the lgbtq+ community. that is a real thing because when you have to hide yourself of course you can be stuck in a state of arrested development and trying to re-establish times you may never have. that’s a geniuine fear and concern, it’s understandable even if i don’t particularly care for it, but it’s like for these writeres there’s no reason to look deeply or put that into their story. so why are they doing it? and what is the message here? uGH. and what ur mother said makes so much sense we are just constantly absorbing all these messages and culture absolutely aids to it and you’re right about the generations. and sometimes things stop and start but i genuinely think (and know) that for us to continue forward and not have the constant backwards taht means we have to push to get there and demand and that also means we have to make an effort to end the harm we then see on screen. rape culture dictates these shows. it relies on it. it is disgusting but rape culture is the norm, the norm is the oppression so we have to attack it otherwise it sticks and htat’s exactly why we see what we see.

and the unacceptability of gender fluidity is what keeps the genre SO INFLEXIBLE sincerely. it honestly just pulls so heavily from patriarchy and the roles in which we have to follow to uphold that structure.

it’s really just not enough to show us things any more wihtout taking it into consideration. and like ive mentioned there’s soooooooooo much media that has a lot to say that embeds itself. there’s this thing my friend linked me to on re-examining queerness in korean cinema (much like my dad’s country; patriarchal, more “conservative, anti lgbtq+, reliant on capital. africa is different because of the blackness component but the structures aided by colonialism absolutely remain and continue and that’s how we see such similarities. thse countries are more “overt” in this output but still you know. america. sucks) because we are trying to re-evaluate what it means to be heard and seen. the different ways and sort of the message that a lot of us as lgbtq+ can feel. you know, how we can get a feeling on if a person has our same experience, how we kind of have to learn to identify that. not sure if this makes sense...

your mom sounds really cool. and i’m fucking sorry. so many men do that. i live with both my parents but even then i see this power imbalance i can’t stand and you know i would have believed it was normal if i wasnt able to learn aand had to build up thinking skills. there was one day that it hit me that there are parts of my parents relationship i abhor, that are imbalanced, that make me find my father disgusting and make me ashamed of my mother. i don’t want that to happen to me or my potential children. if i have a male partner for life, which i am sure i will because offffffff heteronormativity and homophobia and being half black american half nigerian, he cannot recreate that. i am optimistic on what people can do without needing such grand structures or the support of the elite etc you know? that’s how we know there’s good work that exists and people we can find that arent with the status quou!!!

and who want a better world. we have to know we can rally that together. i think part of that is constant demanding of things to do better. there’s a rage against the machine song called settle for nothing and it’s about 0 compromise. there’s a famous quote i dont remember by who that’s basically like there’s an idea that there’s a limit to asking for dignity and what you deserve because when people realize they can live better lives they want to cultivate that more and more but that means a loss of control and a sharing of power from the top. nothing is ever enough if it can be better and we are allowed to demand it (or take it.) we deserve the world, we are being told that we’re asking fo rtoo much. are we? really?

i was thinking about the children thing as well bc...lmao i was so tightly contorlled as a child and it really messed me up but at the same time, like you, i honestly do not want my children watching drivel. like even with youtube. a friend of mine said that what she thinks she will do is try and hammer home how fantastical these things are, they do not reflect reality, and to get them to understand the spectacle. at the same time i’m like does a child really need to watch these dumb tiktok stars or jake paul? but then im like i really dont want to control them. but like what if ur kid asks u to go to some like fucking BL concert or some shit like what do you say to that?!??! I DONT WANNA SAY NO BUT AT THE SAME TIME UHHHHlmao but at the same time we have to give them tools to analyze and do the right things and follow their hearts

however,

as you know

LOL

tysm for responding, lovely talking to you and hearing your thoughts!!!

oh btw so u r from kashmar? that is very cool......VERY COOL

So I havent been on in a while. My account is as dry as a raisin but I thought I could try to make a comeback with some thoughts I just want to talk about.

Trigger and Content Warnings:

Slurs, bigotry, hatred, violence/the threat of violence, death mention, swearing, mentions of sex/sexual items,

For those of you who dont know, Im a transgender man. Assigned female at birth (AFAB) and am currently 16. I knew i was trans since I was 13 and started socially transitioning a few months after I came out.

I came out at high school when I was 13 and have been openly out and queer ever since I was a sohpmore. I'm a junior now, and I've had a bit of experience with my community, both lgbtq+ and my high school community.

My high school community is red, conservative. I live in the western side of North Dakota, what can you expect?

There are bigots and haters ans anti-trans and anti-lgbtq+ everywhere I walk on tbe daily. Yet despite this I am one of the only lgbtq+ students that remains openly out, despite the fear of where I live.

There's always been transphobia and homophobia around me, I get misgendered on the daily by students and even teachers. Words are thrown without care, like Gay as an insult, or Faggot, or Queer. Other students are called gay any time they dont outwardly talk about other people with different genitals than them. At this point Im apathetic to it when I encounter these situations, because it is so unfortunately common.

Nothing ever makes this right of course, and as much as I would love to be outward against these bigots, its several hundred, even a thousand hormonal immature mostly white religious people versus me and I've got to pick and choose my battles.

Maybe you think that makes me a part of the problem, but quite frankly me and my family cant afford it if I get hurt or even get killed due to ridiculously high hospital debt and the funeral costs even.

Keep in mind, these people I'm around do not even care about saying the n word no matter their skin color. Plenty of skinny white boys have said the n word here, and POC say it carelessly in front of Staff, which is against the rules (uninforced mostly)

Being in such an environment in religious North Dakota has its advantages and disadvantages. The bigotry and hate and traditionalists/traditionalism is a disadvantage but being out here means that major viral issues such as the super straights take a lot longer to get here, if it even gets here at all. Which is also a con, seeing as progressive and liberal items/objects dont reach here that fast either. The biggest recent progressive thing we've had was Black Lives Matter, and even then most of my city bears the Blue Lives Matter flag across their car windows.

Fuck, people still bear Trump2020 and MAGA and throw full hatred towards President Biden (Not that Biden is perfect and has done no wrong). Yeah, it's pretty bad.

But the Super Straights haven't gotten here yet. Im thankful for this, being a trans man with quite possibly zero chance at finding a romantic or sexual relationship with anybody in my city. And i fear that the super straight occurrence, if it comes here, will make everything a lot worse and may make people even more openly transphobic but calling themselves superstraight

Super Straight and the super-whatever movement is toxic and terrible and filled with nothing but hatred and bigotry. As a trans man it hurts me to the core and hurts for my fellow trans men and women across the world. Using trans as an umbrella term too, my nonbinary, genderfliud, genderqueer, etc (Im not that educated in the gender neutral terms and terms that arent cis, trans, and enby so forgive me, I want to be supportive to all) humans across the world as well.

Im just hoping that it doesn't breach the walls of my city and high school and that the super Straight assholes will just die (quiet down, not literal death) out once they realize that everyone wont care about that shitty ridiculous term.

All these people want is attention, and to feel special like all of us LGBTQIA+ humans are, because most of us are unique, caring, and kind people. But the bigots can't handle that we are human and are people too and that their oppressive angry ways aren't working anymore.

That's all, and thank you for reading.

(Pls dont mind any typos, I never catch them all)

this is from a comment section on yt. Am i the asshole

Event Hʘriךּon: when will we realize that otherkin and transgeners are basically the same... xXComplexXx : transgenders* and, that is not even remotely true Event Hʘriךּon: @xXComplexXx where are the differences. Both think they are something they are not, think they are born in the wrong body, and think that feelings make reality. xXComplexXx: @Event Hʘriךּon so what you're saying is, you don't understand the difference between species and gender? Event Hʘriךּon: xXComplexXx oh i do. but i also understand that the concept of gender has been made up. Like, the difference between gender and sex. there is no difference. But the real problem is not me using a similitude, but the lack of ability in certain people to differentiate between fact and fantasy. Now, im quite happy for any sex to wear and act however they want, heck, i even fall in that category. My issue is with people that believe they are one gender they are not. Its alright if you are into playing a child when you are with your partner in a roleplay scenario, another thing is being convinced you are actually 9 year old. Im not conflating all of these things btw, species, race, age, sex. Im just trying to show how you wouldnt accept it if someone took one fact about their person and warped it. Im white, you wouldnt like it if went around saying im black when im not. Now, what if i adore the jewelery they make? the dresses they wear? the songs they sing? (im thinking of a certain part of africa in this case, just for this example) Im free to buy a beautiful dress, go to sing with my choir, buy the jewelry and boost that part of the economy. That is just human culture being shared and spread. But the second i go around and say i identify as black, and even go and actively change my skin color (like a reverse michael jackson, and it already happened in some cases too), not only everyone would see that as disrespectful, but i would be actively be ignoring the fact that im as white as a sheet. And try to put any other part of me in the place of the word "black". and youll see why im concerned. We are in the era of ignoring the facts, and this is one of them. I will end by saying, im actually a transhumanist, if you can believe it. I believe in the power of humans to become whatever they like. But just like natural evolution, you cant outgrow your anchestry. We can evolve ourselves (genetically or by body modification) in something new, but we cant stop being the sons and daughters of our anchestors. We are still monkeys, we are still mammals, we are still amniotes, we are still eukariotes. We can evolve in more branches, not jump between them. A woman can evolve a new way to be woman, that looks like a man, but she cant become a man. That wont stop her being a person either, it just a delusion, and we shouldnt be shaming delusions either. Just not encouraging them, because its a slippery slope, and we already know there is a pit at the end of it. xXComplexXx: @Event Hʘriךּon While it is true that sex is unchangeable, the modern concept of gender as a whole exists as a means to be comfortable in your own skin. there have been many scientific studies showing that being transgender is, in fact, a real thing. And the ones that "prove" it isn't have been debunked. If someone was born as a women but wishes to be acknowledged as as a man or vice versa, would being a decent human and treat them as they ask be harming anyone? No, it wouldn't. So why should you go out of your way to make others feel worthless? Event Hʘriךּon: @xXComplexXxThe sense of "worthless" is not coming from me but from themselves. They would be worth exactly 1 like everyone else to me. If being treated like everyone else is an offense to them, that is a problem, their problem to be exact. If the fact that they are delusional changes how they are treated by society that is because we need to have an honest discussion about mental health in this society, not that we should accept their belief as true.. This gender thing is nonsense. Yes, it exists just like people actually think they are a wolf trapped in a human body. They are 100% convinced of this, so the fact that they believe it is real. Doesnt mean they are tho. And its not harmless. When you depart from reality its never harmless. It seeps in what you do and what you believe, and the second you allow one thing to be departed from reality, there is no stopping it, without special pleading. Event Hʘriךּon: @xXComplexXx Also i have nothing against a man wearing a 'woman's' dress, in fact i find it hella rad. My problem lies with what people believe. I wear mans clothes on the daily, i speak more closely to a masculine type, and i otherwise act more like a man than a woman, apart from the little things that make me me. No quantity of act will change what i am, only i can come to terms with how i was born. I will change what that looks like, but i cant parade around thinking im something else. I can make a new image of me, like a dinosaur can evolve into a bird. But a dinosaur cant become a mammal. It can converge in something similar, but it would be its own thing. That is what i wish people understood and did. xXComplexXx: @Event Hʘriךּon I never said being treated like everyone else was offensive. If that is how it came off, I apologize. I'm saying we should be treated like everyone else and not get shit on. And just because you dress like a man doesn't make you a man. If you dress like a man and don't identify as a man, then you are not. How is this concept so hard to grasp? Gender isn't physical. Yes there are two sexes, but there more genders. Gender is your state of mind. A part of your identity. Event Hʘriךּon: xXComplexXx so its completely made up and useless. i mean it can be a fun concept to throw around,like me feeling a bit alien compared to everyone else. It doesnt mean that if i identify as alien, i am (apart from the literary, metaphorical sense). the problem lays with districating the Man and Woman word from egos. You are a man, a blank sheet that you can costumize. Dont stop being a sheet tho. My problem is that when they "Identify" they think anything is ok. If i identify as a crow, i am mistaken in my identification. its alright if i feel more confortable in a bird suit a beak and with people throwing bread at me. Some people have kinks, or have a lifestyle different than most, its fine. But its not alright when we stop considering reality, and whe Demand that it bends at our own will. State of mind is too merky to have any value. What if people start identifying as two year olds when they are 50? is that state of mind justifyed? is there a limit to what we can ignore just because someone thinks that the act of Identifying is reality altering? Can someone be wrong about identifying? what if i sincerely identify as the qeen of england. 'I identify as X' is a statement that can be proven false or true, like everything else in reality. It is true that they identify as X, it is not true that that identification correlates to reality: they are wrong in their identification. To be fair humans are not perfect at identification, we thought that wind had a mind of its own because we identified movement with agency. xXComplexXx: @Event Hʘriךּon Even if all you said was true, why do you care so much? Why would you go out of your way to tell people who've made a choice ,that affects their life and not yours, that they are wrong? Why force people to be confined to the "limits" of our reality? You really think that they're going to listen to you and force themselves to be miserable living a life they can't stand? Are they hurting anyone? No. Are they hurting themselves? Most cases, no. Event Hʘriךּon: xXComplexXx why do i care about reality? because when people think something, they act upon it. Its not true that it doesnt affect anybody else. we share a reality, what other people do affect everyone. Otherwise we wouldnt take care of schizofrenic people, or narcisistic ones, or we would leave cults alone. You dont get to live in a pocket dimension. If someone in their mind think they are better than everyone else, that will impact how they act, who they vote, influence everything around them. If someone think they are trash, they wont fight for themselves when the time comes, they might think that life doesnt matter and not intervene to save others or themselves when they could. It matters. It matters if someone thinks that god will care for them in the next life, and their loved ones will burn in hell if they dont convince them that their god is real. It affect everybody. They might think that their god has a plan for their children, so they wont cure them if they get a disease. It matters. It matters when we let go of reality because the inside of our mind feels better. Expecially because in your mind you are alone. And we need to be less alone, not more. And inside your mind no one can criticise you, or teach you new things, or make new experiences. You can tell yourself stories and no one can say otherwise. we need to live in the real world. If they feel miserable in the real world, that is a symptom of depression, and psychologists exist for that exact purpose. And detachment and dissociation is unhealty.

SJW’s “Diversity” dogma and Tokenism comments

same with me

YES!!! THANK YOU!!!

good point

same, entertainment is for escapism, not propaganda but this is what happens when ideologues control any business

Pretty much.

muthafucken TRUTH ^

they do because 1) it is their “selling-pitch” and to guilt/shame you into watching/liking it and 2) it is so if you dare criticize it they use the women/POC/GLBT card on you and call you names to smear you and deflect attention away from the criticism that it is a shitty poorly constructed film, game, series, comic, etc they use “diversity” to protect their mediocre propaganda from negative reaction, backlash, criticism

yup, that is why feminism is a sham, by looking at the people in the movement, their mentality and hatred of femininity and healthy women, it is no wonder feminists indulge in fandoms to bash classical feminine characters and project themselves into male characters by stripping them of their masculinity and making them go against their original identity by screwing other male straight characters. Feminism is for self loathing fugly women who are anti femininity and anti masculinity in their natural forms.

exactly, they know they have to get them while they are young, the younger he better because they are at their most vulnerable and impressionable. it is very much like a cult, they’d groom their children too.

True, it is feminism that makes women turn against themselves and each other. it conditions them to hate their femininity, hate being healthy and attractive. It is these land whale types that attack classic and traditional femininity and want to make women more butch and masculine because they think that since masculinity is men’s strength then women should emulate it, when in truth femininity is women’s strength, but feminism views femininity as a weakness, thus they emasculate men to weaken them in society’s eye and promote women to be masculine under the dumb belief it is supposed to give women some magical strength that men possess, lol or in other words: ‘cock envy’. This leads to both men and women being unhealthy, depressed, miserable, they develop self-image issues, and instead of taking responsibility for their lifestyle and their gullibility for buying into feminism and anti-gender norms dogma, they blame attractive people or the air brushed celebrities and models (friendly reminder sex sells for a reason, human beings generally prefer attractive healthy partners, people that a obese is a turn off - unless you have a fetish for it). another fact is women are prone to jealousy, envy, (I’m a woman, I know, and every other women with an honest bone in her body knows it is true too) again it leads back to human nature and our hard wired competitive streak. Majority of society’s problems, men and women, where personal issues and self-image and all that are concerned stem from the backwards ideology of feminism attacking our natural behavior because feminism and its flawed theories attack gender norms for its own interest, not for the majority of people’s interests. it causes more problems than it fixes, the only people that benefit are the ones that are devout followers of that dogma...except they aren’t really because they’re still jealous and resentful to those that are not conforming to their ideology. this is why they are now pushing it onto younger people more than before.

yup, sad but true, this is what happens when they are exposed to conditioning through media for decades and pass it down to the next gen and peer pressure them to hate the natural norms of women, her femininity and nature. feminism is communism in a skirt and marxism in drag. feminists are their own oppressors.

well that is one way of putting it. a channel I watched explained that too with a remarkable collection of articles, studies and polls and surveys and all that stuff and not to mention just observing that behavior by living and experiencing the real world, which these snowflakes dont do, they live on the internet in their safe bubble echo chambers believing the opposite about human nature and then get triggered and shocked and outraged when it doesnt mirror their fantasy expectations

personally I like watching attractive and healthy women, I can identify better with a person of any race, gender, sexuality, creed, etc that takes care of their health and appearance, not an unhealthy smelly thing that makes me feel sick :\ the agenda to promote ugliness and force acceptance of it is truly sad and gross

that is a great point actually, it is why the activists first hijacked online fandoms when the internet began because it was the perfect platform to shove their politics down teens and apolitical people’s throats and peer pressure them by calling dissenters all the usual buzzwords if they didnt re-”interpret” characters to virtue signal and appease the oppression stack.

yeah that is true, that is the women’s jealousy showing itself (and in some cases their control-freak tendencies), tumblr showcases their hypocrisy too with the double standards of sexual objectification

omg ... I have found my soul mate !!! ;D

Yeah and that is racist and sexist, once again SJWs are the thing they claim to hate. Personality and who you are matters, not what you are. for the people that think their entire being revolves around their race, gender and sexuality - that is pretty pathetic, that means they havent discovered themselves outside a group. One is supposed to let go of the ‘group’ after highschool. I think because millennials were given social media while they were still in highschool is why they havent grown up, they use it as an emotional crutch. Naturally a dependent person is going to feel helpless and confused because they arent thinking and evolving outside their surface traits that they cling to and use as victim cards. identity politics is cancer.

yeah... -__- yeah they eat themselves, this is a move of virtue signaling to gain more minority followers, they really are bigoted to think minorities want to be used as their fucking pawns in their self serving agenda

truth. the best a girl can hope for is a best friend and a sister. rumors, gossip and backstabbing is huge problem among girls/women, it is the result of being emotionally driven, lol

because feminist/sjws double standards and jealousy, and their dogma of “not please the male gaze” lol it is not up to them to tell people what to do and dress and be attracted to, but they do because they and their ideology is totalitarian

yup and they get their activists running rampant on damage control to ridicule people who point this out, who do they think they are fooling?? their strategy and co-ordinated efforts to brainwash the youth is fucking blatant at that point, we get students reporting the ideological bias bs they endure in the classrooms

thats why i find the romantic comedies of the past 20 years unbearable lol

there is nothing wrong with liking characters that all fall into one demographic due to great writing. I like characters for their journey+personalities+quality, gender and race is just the wrapping paper they come in. Badly written characters are the types that only focus on their race, gender, sexuality and nothing else, which are boring tokens and unrelatable on personal level. that why im resentful to fanfic writers that change characters recognizable identity traits (race, gender, sexuality), they prove they cant create a character and have no respect for established characters, even though those traits are what i called the “wrapping paper” it is still their image and a part of them. people that change canon characters are the bigots for changing them in the first place and would be the first to screech if a minority character was changed to be a different demographic. hypocrisy is the SJW game.

exactly, they build it up first, gain the following and support and devotion and then flip the switch. Jim Jones did the same thing. He gained his following by enticing a church, and then after filling them up with joy and hope and hoax miracles to convince them he was legit he then threw the bible onto the floor and said “did lightening strike me down?” and then began pushing his own marxist twisted beliefs and because the followers had been duped to sell their homes to donate to the Jim Jones church and live with the rest of the followers, (note it is easier to create a cult when they are isolated and exposed to the dogma all the time, like modern days ppl are hooked up to social media 24/7) it made it harder for them to just walk away. This is what these zealots do, they lure you in and once they have you they make you feel obligated and dependent on it and then switch the dogma an further poison your mind to reality. it is sick but they use this trick so often it is not hard to spot it, and it is always by the same brand of ideologues using the same methods.

Man i was just thinking again about that idea i had for a cliche gijinka app card game where the gijinkas are all Interesting Bugs instead of weird sexy anime george washington.

I've kinda got quite attatched to my idea for a leech gijinka as a super cuddly white mage who just happens to look emo and scary. And they'd be a great opportunity for nonbinary representation cos in real life leeches don't have binary sexes anyway. But i cant decide between whether i want them to look like a full plague doctor mask thing or a more cliche cutesy nurse but theyre like super tall and look like the monster girl from the ring so they get sad that people always run away before they can help them! So then i was thinking "hey, alternate skins!" Not like in the other games ive played where there's always one canon skin and all the others require hours of grinding and/or real money to buy. But just that there's like three or so randomized versions of the base character with all the same stats but a different costume. Just to spice up the pool of options a bit! Or maybe it could even be more than just the costume and you can get entirely different reinterpretations of that job class? Like the medusa jellyfish could be either a young kid or a grandpa!

Oh and i'm not really sure how to name this or anything? Cos its not really a clear category of animals, its not all insects or all worms or whatever. More like just..all the animals that are unfairly hated but have Cool Biology Facts that i can babble at u to maybe make u like them more. So i dunno.. Pests? Creepy crawlies? Some entirely made up fantasy term for them?

Also i think the setting will definately be jrpg fantasy! Just a world where all these critters are actually funky people on a comedically bad D&D quest. I wonder who the villains could be tho? Maybe theyre gijinkas of more commonly loved cute animals? Or like.. Not gijinkas but monsterfied versions? Hilariously over the top evil fluffums! hamsters are this setting's dragons! And i dunno maybe the ultimate dark lord is a dog with a cat for a royal vizier or something, cos theyre the kings of popularity.

This could also make it actually make sense why the Clione character could be a beserker like in real life! Cos theyre the most un-hated rare sea slug for looking cute, but their actual personality is big scary predator. But in this universe being seen as cute by humans = evil, so the Clione's fighty doom personality would make perfect sense! Im not sure if i should make them like a tormented Shadow esque antihero or a paladin-looking knight who has a dark streak or maybe even a viking? Cos in videogames theyre like the epitome of 'loves fighting but is still a nice hugs guy'. And it'd be neat to have a chubby buff clione instead of the more cliche bishie gijinka. But then i mean theyre literally nicknamed 'sea angels' or 'sea fairies' depending on country so yeah? Oh or maybe that could mean i make them an elf or an angel but theyre still mega buff! Viking guy with lil chibi wings and halo!

Also randomly i think that Slug will be the other nonbinary character along with Leech. Cos well there's a lot of bugs who dont fit the human gender binary but i'd probably be a bit too obnoxious if i had like 90% enbies and noone else. I always think about like 'if this is my first game project i need to go at a small and reasonable pace with all the Big LGBT Feels', yknow? But then every idea i do is always my first game project cos ive never completed any of them yet XD

Anyway i think Slug would be a more fashionable bishie kind of androgenous character, while Leech is a relateable cuddly socially awkward one who wears a mask. But definately also looks stylish in their own way, and i'm sure Slug is always complimenting them and trying to bolster their spirits! Aside from being super fashionable i also think maybe Slug would be a wandering bard? Cos somehow slow animal -> lazy human -> free spirited instead to be less cliche -> bard. Also the whole 'bard rolls to seduce every boss' meme, lol! So Slug is a very nyeheheh tricksy flirty adventuring song person who aint take nobody's shit. Instead of being sleepy they sleep on the concept of low self confidence! Full and powerful pride at all times!!! Goal in life is to be beautiful AF and handsome AF and make everyone swoon at your feet and also recite an epic poetry so cool that your enemies straight up die from the sick burn. Tho i mean i don't think anyone could actually ACHIEVE that, lol! It might be obnoxious if i actually have a character who's basically 'enby people are literally perfect in all ways'. So i just think Slug is a big ol dork who's like the Gaston archetype of the comically overconfident flirt, but like a good and heroic version who actually respects when people say no to their advances. And is also a great BFF to Leech and tries to help them get out of their shell, because well of course Slug is out of theirs XD

Also actually i dunno whether they should all just be named after the animal or have thier own names but the animal is mentioned on their profile as a job class name or something? Cos it might get awkward once we get to more specific obscure bugs with longer names or ones who only really have a scientific genus name. I'd feel like i'd have to make them all wizards cos their names sound like spells! Oh MAYBE THEYRE SPELLS!! Like each character could chant their own scientific name when they use their ultimate attack??

Oh and maybe Slug and Leech could be just based on the species in general but have their alternate costumes themed after more specific rare subspecies? Like Slug could have nudibranch themed costumes cos the vibrant colours would fit such an elegant fashioniste~ And leech could just be an opportunity to talk about how there's subspecies of leech that dont drink blood, though this character is based on the ones that do because otherwise they wouldnt really have a unique job class, lol. Maybe their rarest alt costume is a fashionable orange ensemble that symbolizes both Slug taking them out for a night on the town in their finest to feel more comfortabke in their self confidence, and also just the fact there's an orange tropical leech. Its kinda funny cos there isnt such a huge range of different colours for leeches, its mostly just different barely visible patterns and a spectrum from greenish brown to brownish black, lol. And then suddenly a bunch of wildly different red and orange ones! And nothing in between! Really does seem like a surprise makeover from your bestie, yknow?

Oh and then when i was thinking about other potential relationships between different magic bug people, i thought of Daddy Longlegs! Cos thats a name confusingly given to multiple bugs of wildly different species who're all mistaken for spiders when they really arent. And this mythical nonexistant daddy longlegs spider also has the myth of having 'the strongest poison but its fangs are too short to bite you' which is COMPLETE nonsense based on nothibg cos how would it even survive in the wild if it cant hunt? But its a real cool myth so it could be an awesome excuse to make them have a move that gambles on either an instant kill or a self debuff. ALSO THEY ARE MARRIED

I was thinking they could be a duo of fabulous zorro-looking assassin dudes who were sent to assassinate each other but instead fell in love and quit the business for good. Like 'you made me want to live again, and the only reason i threw my life away on this job was cos i wanted to die'. And to atone for all the bad mercenary stuff theyd done in the past, now theyre robin hood esque mercenaries who take jobs with world-saving hero groups like our protagonists. And they work for free as long as the cause is just! And they wish they could settle down someday and dream about having children of their own, but they feel like they dont deserve it after all that theyve done. They'd be a rare goofy bugmans that actually have a real emotional backstory! So anyway they're fancy fencing guys who're both the same class but maybe slightly different variants with different stat builds or abilities? More specialized and all. Like maybe one is speedy but weaker and one is slower but stronger? Or one relies more on luck based attacks and one is a consistant damage dealer but has a lower max damage cap? Or even one is status effects and one is attack and really even though they have the same job name theyre wildly different interpretations of it. Fitting for the entomology mistake husbands! I want them to be balanced so that they have special bonuses together but are still viable to use separately if your party setup only requires one of them. Also randomly i think their names would be Albedo and Rubedo? I was originally gonna make Rubedo the name of the leech cos i mean alchemy words and plague masks and all. But then it doesnt really SOUND like an alchemy word, it sounds like a fancy handsome dancer name. And then i started thinking about the cute once-sad-now-happy young assassin dads fighting together so well that it looks like one big dance between them, rather than a battle. And i got REAL EMOTIONAL over goddamn bug gijinkas! Man my heart is made of paper and mush!! Oh and maybe they have combo attacks together but also with all of the party members that are younger? Like special dad instinct combo! A built in ability that they automatically shield the kids from enemy attacks. YOU HIRED A MERCENARY BUT YOU RECEIVED A NICE MARRIED COUPLE WHO PROMPTLY ADOPT YOU. Oh and maybe their alternate costumes could just be each other's costumes? Like they'd already be wearing matching red and white versions of the same thing, but then albino dad wears ginger dad's version and vice versa. Or maybe their alt costumes are different complimentary colour pairs like black and gold or blue and pink? And maybe their ultra rare special costume is Big Cute Dorky Argyle Dad Sweaters! It must be capitalized cos it is IMPORTANT!

Oh and then i was also thinking about the idea i had before of bugs with a queen hive structure being like the workers are the common unit and the breeders and queens and such are rarer variants? But the workers are the only ones actually good in a fight, the others are just for collectables sake. Rare but useless, just like how the real queen bee is so big that she cant leave the hive, and never figjts a day in her life unless the kingdom has already fallen. So maybe queen bee is still unlockable as a rare character but she's just a support that makes worker bee stronger? Like you get a lil event of worker's boss coming to honor her with a knighthood for her good service, allowing her to upgrade her job class. Tho i think she still fights with construction work equipment, now its just like a golden jewelled shovel XD

#bug app game #if i actually make this it obviously wont be an app game cos im not capable of programming or funding that #itd just be a free rpgmaker project that spoofs all the cliches of this genre of gijinka gatcha nonsense #youd just earn coins to buy randomized new units via regular gameplay #and probably have a lot more ease of enjoyment features to balance it out and stuff #like your odds go up if you get lots of unlucky pulls in a row #i just want everyone to have fun and be able to see as many of my goofy characters as possible!#no need to stretch it out to 120 hours if nobodys getting money for it lol

The Pursuit of Happiness

The most iconic line of the Declaration of Independence of the United States stands out for a reason, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." (The Declaration of Independence, 1776). The right to pursue happiness, and the right to be happy are fundamentally different. While there are infinite theories about what constitutes happiness and how to achieve that happiness, it is not society's role to give each happiness. In Dylan Matthews' article "The Case Against Equality of Opportunity," besides missing the point of Equality of Opportunity overall, Matthews misunderstands the pursuit of happiness with happiness itself.

The purpose of equality of opportunity is to remove discrimination because of a specific trait one has, such as race, color, religion, sex, pregnancy status, transgender status, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information. If this idea were universally applied, unquestionably, that would be the ideal goal of equality of opportunity. This notion is rooted in an idea crystalized in the article "I, Pencil," with the line "[h]ave faith that free men and women will respond to the Invisible Hand." (Read, 1964). However, because the United States, and indeed any endeavor of man, is not perfect, there are additional barriers that might crop up, where further intervention may be necessary. The difficulty is, instead of expanding government control to the point of legislating parental actions, such as Matthews falsely claims would be required, the right method of removing these barriers would look similar to school choice. Instead of forcing inner-city children to go to their neighborhood school, which may have inadequate funding and is academically lagging, families should have the opportunity to send their children to any nearby school. Michael Sandel offers a helpful look at this situation when he explores a homeless man sleeping on the street, "[i]n order to know whether his choice reflects a preference for sleeping out of doors or an inability to afford an apartment, we need to know something about his circumstances. Is he doing this freely or out of necessity?" (Sandel, pg. 46, 2009). By implementing school choice and allowing the student's family to pick, we would then learn the family's preference and what they choose to pursue happiness.

The number of times Matthews confuses Equality of Opportunity and Equality of Outcome is quite interesting for someone who later argues for the implementation of economic Equality of Outcome. Matthews provides what he believes is an example of Equality of Opportunity in two families that teach their children different trades during their childhood. A child knowing how to play the violin is an outcome of the way their parents raised them. This sequence of events has nothing to do with Equality of Opportunity; the Equality of Opportunity discussion would begin if that family were denied a violin's purchase because of their race, religion, and so forth. These two families are enjoying their right to pursue happiness, which is teaching their children a trade.

Economic mobility is presented as a method of measuring equality of opportunity. However, this is merely introduced as a strawman argument used to reject the premise of equality of opportunity as a whole, using the logic "if we cannot measure it, what is the point in trying to obtain it?" Which is, by itself, a flawed notion. There is no quantifiable measurement for happiness, yet most people strive to live a happy life. Matthews goes on to say it would be "madness" to have proper intergeneration elasticity; he justifiably applauds the notion of the lower class being able to reach the middle and upper class but rejects the idea that the upper class could fall to the lower class, citing a father banishing his son from his inheritance (Matthews, 2015). When discussing economics, intergenerational elasticity should be viewed in terms of economic choices, not familial ones. Matthew's example of Megan Ellison can be used as a hypothetical of what could happen with the upper class falling to the lower class. Ellison used her inheritance on filmmaking, as Matthews points out. If Ellison's movies failed and lost all of her money, she would have taken a financial risk and lost, sending her to the middle or even lower class. This is what a free society looks like; this is not madness. Sometimes one fails in their pursuit of happiness. One could argue that the risk of failure is what makes a success so sweet.

Equality of Opportunity is the best solution for a world where people want what is fair, not what is equal, and as Dr. Paul Bloom points out, this is the case in the United States (Bloom, 2015). Matthews explores the idea that Equality of Outcomes will help all, even those who have metaphorically lost the lottery of birth; "equality of outcomes would also help these poor, smart strivers. The difference is that while equality of outcomes promises gains for every poor person, equality of opportunity explicitly leaves some people out" (Matthews, 2015). Matthews leaves out a few things here. First, he fails to remind us that by equalizing the outcomes, the upper class are being heavily taxed, potentially enough to move them out of their current income bracket, which, as he mentioned, would be madness. Second, once basic needs are met, giving someone additional money will inherently not improve their happiness. You cannot merely redistribute wealth and expect an increase in society's overall morale; the pursuit of happiness is from where that comes. It is also interesting to question what outcomes Matthews intends to equalize. Should we only equalize economic outcomes? What about gender distributions in career fields? After all, there is a consensus about a lack of women in STEM fields. Then the question arises, should we mandate equal outcomes in all career fields? No one is going to argue we need more women working in coal mines or on oil rigs. As soon as we begin to pursue Equality of Outcomes, we abandon both fairness and the pursuit of happiness.

I respect Matthew's desire to help the poor. My concerns are his methods for doing so and what appears to me is either a fundamental misunderstanding of Equality of Opportunity or a willful misrepresentation grounded in his belief that Equality of Outcome is a better alternative. The Founding Fathers began this country with a declaration of war rooted in equality and freedom, explicitly stating the right to pursue happiness. The most effective means of pursuing happiness is giving all individuals equal opportunity under the law.

CS Hate at its finest

I’m just gonna leave this here for the next jerk who decides to attack me with this picture.

Let me start off by saying that I do NOT ship Emma with Villain Hook. I ship Emma with Killian, the man who is on his journey to becoming the man he was always meant to be. A good man. And I do NOT excuse anything villain Hook has done. Funny how Rumple & Regina get free passes though? Their past crimes are forgotten and forgiven while Killian’s continue to be used as a weapon against present day CaptainSwan.

But let me address this picture one by one as it relates to the man Killian Jones has become.

Picture 1: Ariel

Our Killian has expressed guilt and remorse for failing to help Ariel. He tried to make it up to her and it’s not his fault it was the Wicked Witch. But they have made their peace. After 6x16, I daresay they are even friends.

Picture 2: Sleeping Beauty

Basically above. One of many of his past mistakes but he didn’t rip her heart out because she was a woman. Lets not mince things here. He ripped her heart out because she was his ticket to his revenge. Is that good? No. He was a villain! But lets not make it about gender.

Also, he endangered himself to save her heart.

Picture 3: Belle

I might be wrong but I think Belle is his biggest regret. He’s shown the most remorse and guilt over his treatment of her - we see this in 6x02. He saw Belle as his key to getting revenge on Gold. Nothing more. He wasn’t abusing her because she was a woman. In fact he says himself, “I hurt his heart. Belle is just where he keeps it.”

I do not excuse Hook for what he did to Belle. But this is a fictional world and this fictional character has done his best to make it up to her. Belle has even seen the change in him and accepted it. She’s sees the good in him now.

Oh and by the way, as a villain Hook has also hit men. He was an evil villain. What gender they were didn’t matter.

Picture 4: Milah

This one just makes my blood boil. Milah is a grown woman and she can make her own choices. She CHOSE to leave with Killian and left her son behind. But lets look at whose the lesser man in this scene? IF we’re to agree that was what Hook was insinuating.

If you want to believe companionship means that, then what does that make Rumple? It makes him the worst kind of coward. Killian WAS trying to bait him. It WAS a test. A test that Rumple failed horribly.

You know what is worse than “insinuating”? A sniveling coward who values his life above his wife’s or even his wife’s honor.

Picture 5: Tinkerbell

What? I dont.. oh wait it never happened.

Offering someone a drink isn’t a crime. Heck, the man even paid off a pre-paid hooker. I don’t think his actions = that of a man who forces himself on women.

Picture 6: Emma

You’ve got to be kidding me. But here it goes.

1. past-drunk-Hook never said he gets women drunk for sex. Women, too drunk & sex aren’t even mentioned in that line.

And you know what? As a woman that notion offends me. No one gets me drunk but me. I can make my own choices. I choose to drink. I can say no to the drinks. The man likes rum. He likes to share rum. Get over it.

Furthermore: that line could even mean obtaining information or distracting someone which Emma was doing & he clearly caught onto it. Fact is that line can be taken in many ways but nothing in his character suggests assault. Big talker & BSer? Full of himself? Yes.

Is the line a stupid one? Yes. But he NEVER outright says he gets women drunk for sex. You want to see a character who does? Go watch how I met your mother and play spot the differences. I’m not saying Barney is evil but he is ten times shadier in that respect than past-Hook

More things to note: 1) Where did his eyes go when he first saw her? It wasn’t down to her cleavage but he was actually fixated on her eyes. What a sleezeball huh? 2) It was a joke. And Jokes don’t = rape. 3) PastHook gave her 2 chances to back out.. he asked her once at the table & once as he was coming down the ladder on his ship. No signs of force.

2. Hook never pursued Emma further than Emma wanted him to pursue it.

He cracks jokes, and flirts but last I checked that isn’t a crime. Remember it was Emma that kisses him. It was Emma that asked him out- once she was ready and her walls were down. But everyone around them could see the attraction was mutual - including Regina who points it out in Neverland.

When she asked him to be patient, he was. He let her know he was there for her, yes. Because everyone else had always abandoned her. He didn’t want her to believe for a moment he’d do the same. He was in it for the long haul, remember?

3. Killian never said Emma was a conquest. He said he loves her. We’ve seen nothing but love & support from Killian to Emma.

4. Killian knocked out past-Hook b/c he hated the villain - shows how he’s changed

5. Dark One Hook

Killian wanted to die over becoming the DO b/c he knew he might not be able to fight it. But he DID fight the darkness & he won. Unlike Rumple who loves the darkness and continues to choose it over everyone (his son, his wife).

Anything he said to Emma during this time wasn’t Killian talking. It was his thirst for revenge that dark CURSE re-awoke and the voices of every DO that ever lived.

Killian regrets this. We see this after Emma rescues him from Hades. But if any CS hater actually bothered to watch S5 they’d know this.

And anyway, he was filled with darkness? Did you think he’d be a perfect angel? Was anyone expecting that?? Mind. Blown.

Dark One Hook is not our Killian. Our Killian fought his darkness and again HE WON.

My conclusion

Killian is still on his journey. We see it now in S6. He’s got a lot of guilt to deal with and a whole lot of years of darkness. He’s going to stumble but what I LOVE is that his HEART is always in the right place.

Now i get it...

Saturday night live did a skit a few weeks ago that touched upon the “difficulty” of people having a discussion about the current state of sexual harassment/sexual assault/objectification/#metoo which ultimately played out into the joke being that you just don’t talk about it and instead have an internal discussion in your head. The thing is that i would love to have a conversation about it, hell bring on an argument so that at least there is discourse and debate and people are freely speaking to experience and want moving forward.There is the absolute need for outrage, but at a point outrage needs to evolve to something greater, something tangible, because right now the outrage seems to have a shelf life and nothing more.

And now to the reason for this...I know that the prevailing direction is that when a woman makes a generalization of what “men” must do, collective of all men, the immediate thing is not for us (men) to individually claim that we are not that “man” and minimize the statement but to just let the message breathe. BUT...BUT...BUT, sometimes you read something that speaks to what men need to do, and yet the underlying story isnt about a vision for a better man, or a better society, or male/female dynamic and reads more like this is what men need to do/be/become to better match for that particular woman and her preference and at that point it is no longer a discussion about Gender/sex but a window to a needed therapy session.

Such is my reaction to an article i read this morning in the Washington Post Entitled “We all want good sex. It’s time for men to do their part” by Shannon Lell. Http://flip.it/5YHy-q . Here are some line from it that struck me.

“As a middle -aged, single, heterosexual, femininst living through this volatile time, when relationship norms are unclear and constantly shifting, the divide between men and women has never felt so wide. And i have never been so lonely. Men can’t seem to get it right, even when they publicly shout their support for women. Case in point: Aziz Ansari”

- First thought...wow, any more labels you want to throw in there for good measure? Sounds like for all that you are simple conversation is a struggle here, and for all that can be said about Aziz Ansari, someone im sure neither of us know...what is known is that his date was not assaulted nor harassed. At best she was not given the respect she thought she was owed, nor did she seem to demand that level of respect if she felt disrespected. Hindsight of a bad hookup its not a litmus test.

“In my experience, the days of using sex appeal to begin a relationship are over. Because if that’s all there is, its dehumanizing. it leads to shallow intimacy, being objectification or coercion.”

- Translation...YOUR days of using sex appeal are over... it may not work for you anymore, and that is okay, but the rest of the world is not responsible for your personal shift. If sex appeal is dehumanizing...then it sounds like there is a disconnect with how you relate to your own sex appeal which isnt to say that unwanted attention is any less unwanted, but you are talking about the context of a relationship...so sex is either a part of your relationship or not, if it is, why then can that not be something to celebrate along with everything else in a relationship?

“I dont need a man to ask permission for every move he makes. We shouldn’t let the battle cry of consent translate into boring sex. Sometimes spontaneity is what makes sex passionate, particularly sex with someone you don’t know well. But men, please check your entitlement at the door. Intentions are important, and everyone’s intentions during sex should be of care, healing, and relief, not of personal appetite and blind conquest.”

- Yes i can see how someone playing 21 questions is a buzzkill, UNLESS that is some kind of mutually enjoyed foreplay. But this line of thought is all over the place because in one moment we are addressing passion and people you “don’t know well” and the next you are talking about intention being about healing, and relief and not about personal appetite!. SEX IS NOT A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT!. THERE ARE NO ESTABLISHED NORMS OF SEX THAT EVERYONE MUST ADHERE TO...aside that it be consensual. To be totally honest I have never thought of sex as ever being healing or about relief. I’ve never wanted to cum or looked at a partner and though she is ideal for my relief. As for entitlement, i am lost here, but also lost as to what the author then sees as passionate sex for everyone, because it sounds a lot like its supposed to be somewhat lustful, but not too lustful, and not about the excitement of who you are having sex with, and that if we could all maybe pray over it first that would be ideal. Sorry but speak that truth to yourself and find your partners accordingly but please stop suggesting that men and men alone adopt this to make your loneliness less palpable. I have known far more women in my life than men who have had sex for reasons of pure lust, of it being hopefully about them getting off, and fucked how they would like, as their only intention and it being nothing about care or healing or relief. In my life i have only even known one guy (pre-tinder) who could even come close to saying he was going out to hook up with someone, meanwhile the number of women i have know who could and did make that happen...point being sex and entitlement seems to only be about a certain group of men of wealth, prestige and who could offer something well beyond themselves. Your everyday guy walking down the street has an entitlement that usually stops at his front door, eveything else is a very wishful ego.

“The trite wisdom of the late 1990′s, early 2000s - that men are from Mars and women are from Venus - allowed men a pass; they weren’t expected to learn the nuance of nonverbal communication. Women were coached to spell out their desires because male brains just “don’t work” at picking up subtleties of feminine persuasion. Men were positioned as needing to be hit over the head with a big stick like a cave man to understand the more emotional female brain.”

- I think this comes down to what someone’s personal take away was from that school of thought. Being in college and plenty of discussions at the time my take away was that the book was not a call of action for women or a pass for men. It was simply a look at how men and women relate differently. Point of fact men do not necessarily see things as women do, or relate emotionally, on the same play and may not be as keen to nonverbal communication. But many of the take aways were that came as a result of social conditioning that told boys to respond and act verbally where girls were told not to, where boys were told that men don’t live in their emotion and girls were told not to shy away from emotion. If anything it was a fresh take on how conditioning has brought us towards certain issues.But that said as an eye opener i took it as a means of saying men need to expand upon emotional perception, and depth and women could facilitate that by not relying upon non verbal communication but begin to speak to verbal communication...the idea being merge through the existing divide. Apparently i guess this authors take was that men need not evolve...im really getting a sense that this author as a declared feminist is not really looking just for sex, or partnership, but also selective control.

“Ive been taking risks and perfecting these communication skills my whole life out of necessity. I’ve been apologizing for myself for decades. It’s time for the men i date to meet me halfway”

- Its it possible that what you perfected, has perfectly led you to your current loneliness because you have insisted that it is the way you must be and how everyone else must receive you? An expert in non verbal communication seems to leave a lot lacking especially if paired against a severe resistance to verbal communication. Not to mention...who insisted that you apologize for yourself? From the sounds of it, it is hardly about the men you date meeting you halfway, its about them fully committing you where you are, based on where you have been that they individually had no part in. Real talk...sounds like your loneliness and lack of sex/lust is the result not of lack of lust or desire, but being really unable to open up the parameters with how you accept people and their existence. And of course that is your very right, but that means it isnt for everyone else to accomodate you....especially ALL MEN.

Morality

If the prostate really felt so good all women would be knocking down men's doors for sex as the female prostate is the skenes gland located in the same place as the urethra at the edge of the vaginal canal, not to mention the male prostate is located at an angle very difficult to reach using a penis without permanently injuring the sphincter and walls of the rectum, the sensation of needing to pee can enhance sex but very few are capable of 'prostate induced orgasm' while the hemorroids, anal fissures, and toxic human waste ensure that its almost never worth pursuing for men, notice it is usually women who claim the prostate feels so great when in reality it feels no different than the skenes gland which is much more accessible Animal sexuality is almost entirely dictated by pheromones, pheromone sensory disorder or residual scent from a female is the only reason males occasionally mount other males with the intention of rubbing their own pheromones on the inferior male but still intended for the females, animals that mount members of the same sex will mount anything including nonliving objects, their owners legs- etcetera, homosexuality is anatomically impossible for the vast majority of animals, the protruding genitals that bonobos have is a serious injury risk, even then homosexual orgasm has never been proven and exclusive oral sex has never been observed in any animal The factors which make sex unenjoyable for lesbians ensure their sons cannot enjoy even benign anal stimulation to enhance hetero sex or masturbation without injury Gays can never be prepared for what goes wrong in children which theyre most likely to cause by having weak genes that dont allow them to enjoy sex to begin with, this includes mental illness genes All energy is dictated by physics, mental illness is a physical illness, the mind is only made of photons and radiation and memory is made of brain cells Gay procreation creates the worst type of disability- an otherwise able bodied person who is completely undesireable, why would any good healthy father choose a lesbian to have his children and why would any healthy straight person procreate with the children of homosexuals Sex is the highest form of empathy which means lack of empathy for the opposite gender is already a sign of weak genes, If gays cant enjoy sex how would their kids enjoy sex regardless of orientation? Inability to enjoy sex is itself a disability, with enough imagination all heterosexuals could choose homosexual behavior but they'd only be settling for less, however, truly dysfunctional sex organs could never hope to enjoy heterosexuality, technology is already able to improve the lack of ability to enjoy hetero sex so to think that homosexuality wont be treated as a disorder in the future once technology can fully cure sexual disability is only ignorance Gays who have children not only ruin things for other gays who know they have incompatible sex organs/genes and would never attempt to spread them, but infinitely worse they bring a new life into the world with the same less sexually-able genes, since we dont plaster the media with other disabilities we should stop promoting gays in the media which children consume the most of, though of course jobs accomodating the truly disabled is in everyones best interest Until every gay can admit they have a physical disability be it in the brain or body, homosexuality will continue to exist under a pathological sense of self perfection where gays can do no wrong and an inflated ego enabled by society Whether its bad sex genes or brain genes (usually both as cells only differ so much) fundamentally they arent worth spreading, sexual dysfunction needs to be the cutoff for procreation otherwise their children not only get stuck with bad genes but are then forced into social obscurity to ensure they never even have a chance to develop properly If a woman desires children but truly cant get enough clit in her mouth she should consider having her ribs removed to end her 'suffering', rather than ruin the lives of her own children and everyone elses hard fought for daughters I would treat gays who choose to spread their genes even worse than a cancer patient who goes and gets pregnant, the social isolation gay parents put their children through is the single worst circumstance imagineable, any gay couple who cant understand that deserves to be locked in a cell with eachother with nothing new to say or do until they cant even stand to look at eachother or anyone (anything) else, that is what they put their children through and no child wants a for-pay artificial friend or family offered by ridiculous companies like 'big brother', especially not the same gender if the child is straight, gay procreation can only create the perfect kamikaze which is an able bodied but sexually disabled person be it a lack of function, aesthetic or both, who only fears more of themselves being created I have been told face to face by a lesbian with a son that she would rather die than be around men and that both the vagina and sex are disgusting, she even believed that the human penis had a bone in it, obviously such a person could never be fit for parenting, this same lesbian mother once hit her 11 year son in the face for disagreeing with homosexuality even though he never laid a finger on her, he grew up to be very, very troubled, and sadly the mother who herself had been abused as a child made a career out of teaching young children April 29, 2017
