ts also nobodies place to probe someone for answers they are not ready for though. If me and someone are on good terms why are we discussing sexual orientation? If a dude talks about his love for his boyfriend, im like good for him but Im not going to sit there and go on and on anout it. If dude his happy with his life that is all that matters.
The issue of this thread were the initial comparison between two stuggles. Comparisons should not be made as there are gays who face racism from each other so struggles are not the same although different. As a black man who faces discrimination the parallel of saying "damn thats messed up and wrong" when hearing about violence against gays is valid and something i have mentioned i felt.l, but recognizing universal wrongs does not = saying yea I rock with same sex people being sleeping together. I dont agree with it as Im not down with the concept this i do mot agree with it. People are fishing for someone to say they hate something when nobody is doing that. The issue at hand is when it comes to homosexuality people dont have the right according to these people to say of they are personally cool with it, yet there are numerous pages advocating for people to not be allowed to practice something such as faith in whatever they want.
The argument is if someone is not taking action to ensure another group does mot achieve what they believe in, then how dan someone be villanized for theor views? Why is it ok for People to call people who have faith in "god" idiots and advocate they need to become atheist? Why is it ok to say Hatians must be deported from "your" land when you land was stolen in the first place?
This is a large part as to why gays stay in the closet. Even if you were sincere about supporting them, in the back of their mind they're thinking "This person is willing to accept everything about me accept my sexuality" so it comes off as disingenuous and disrespectful. You're still purporting that since being gay isn't "normal" you can't be fully accepted for your identity.
