at the hypocrisy coming from the gays. You say he's generalizing but at the same time I see gays generalizing right back. What a mess.

Not really, I see how people could view my wording as negative but who likes to be called something they are not? Regardless if it is viewed to be negative.

For example, when someone calls you your siblings name by accident, most people get offended. Doesn't mean they don't like their sibling.

its just the way it is ... get used to it

Exactly, just like the thread Kevin made today saying BTW & PLU are gay anthems, why do they have to be gay?

i agree nobody prefers to be called something their not but i still dont get why someone should be offended by it though. that sibling analogy isn't really the same imo. if i were to get offended by it it's not because i was called something i am not but more-so because it's suggesting to me that i'm an unmemorable person so much to the point you can't even differentiate between me and someone else. but i do understand your point somewhat. I think it also depends on how someone goes about what they say. if they're making an honest or sincere inquiry about someone's sexuality with no harmful intentions, i dont think thats a problem. and it's not as bad to make assumptions about a persons sexuality as long as you're open and receptive to how they respond in regards to your assumption. but if someone is actually ACCUSING me yeah I see why I would feel slighted because I'm not really being given any say and the person is basically dismissing anything I say. I would be annoyed offended by that, not because someone called me straight.

Being judgemental doesn't depend on your sexuality. Most gays I know irl are the most understanding and precious people you can possibly know. Most of them

Although it did cross my mind, people on atrl are really judgemental (90% of them are gay males) and many straight men are judgemental irl. Does it make men more judgemental than women?

JK (or am I )

Because gay people are also people.

This thread is dumb and you should feel dumb.

I see your point and I agree. For example, people call me "sis" on here, I say don't call me that because I don't like it. They always just say "everyone is sis on here" Really?

I know some really judgmental women too though

Thanks for your insightful opinion

True. I mean, I realize that not all gays are like that, but I don't see how anyone that is surely used to discrimination in their own life can turn around and do the same thing to other people It's so hypocritical.
