Why are people proud to be gay

Lars

Member
OP is confused. Makes sense.
Bisexual. Prefer girls though. I am secure on myself. But being insecure is good. Ever wanted to step on a mountain top and not look around so you dont fall off? Well thats being secure. Which is stupid. So being insecure is good way to double check your mistakes

If i came out pantless and bragged about being straight. Yeah thats lame bragging point. There is nothing proudful about being born a certain way. You just are. Having a date to mark the fight is fine. But the exposure nonsense is pure socialist propaganda

Lars, I think I may have asked you before and gotten no response.

Can you tell me: How do you define socialism?

From everything I've seen you say, you seem to have literally no idea what the word means as it is commonly used. Or are you just trolling us? Engaging in satire? I honestly can't tell.

Wouldnt that be like being proud of being a stripper? (Not judging)
Cant you just... have a day to celebrate Gay liberation movement and call it quits :p

But watched funny video by Denis Miller on it

edit: My theory. Gay pride is socialist authoritarianism.

People that have been marginalized by society are told implicitly and explicitly that they should feel shame for who they are.

As a lesbian that grew up in a small midwestern town, I lived in the closet all through high school because I was ashamed: because of the things I could hear other people say on a weekly basis. I even went so far as to date young men, lying to myself, hating myself for it.

This culture of shame and fear over just existing is what pride is about: pride is saying I’m not going to be ashamed of who I am, I have no reason to be ashamed, I’m beautiful the way I am. I don’t have to lie to myself or anyone else anymore because it’s those that would try to make me feel ashamed that are wrong.

Being gay has nothing to do with being a stripper, I can’t fathom where you made that connection from. But you know what, I did that too as an undergrad, and I’m not ashamed of that either.

Socialists are manipulative and often rely on authoritarian rules and scoffs all form that doesnt comply to their group think, socialists hate free expression and sucks. With how USA is formed, you have two extremes. Extreme Left and Extreme Right. The political system in USA is terrible because you only have two choices, and not several parties that you can ideologically agree with. And vote and see if they can get into power fair and square.

Not in Scandinavia, I think you missed my sarcasm.
USA is a racist country since after or before civil war i think. They literally fund corporations that actively use racism to get cash. People over there are so stupid honestly. Its a way to distract people from real problems like poverty issues or system itself is broken with two party system. The country sucks that way, even if other innovative part is good part of USA. But that culture is so ****

Right, gay pride is a movement meant to directly contrast with and reject gay shame, which has been the overwhelming imposition on homosexuality for centuries. This shouldn't be difficult. I'm not sure why people accepting who they are and loving their humanity without shame would be authoritarian or related to a particular economic system.

Do you realize socialism is an economic approach, and not a personality type? Because you didn't define it that way at all. You seem very confused and narrowminded. Please educate yourself, and stop taking false ideas and associating them generally with entire groups of people.

Ok i do know Liberals in USA love profiting of racism in USA. KKK hasnt left that platform. Basically they evolved. "Coloured people " was racist, then they formed "people of colour" in modern time. So the whole country is racist because of how stupid they are to rely on two party system, rather than creating social democrat party, or more parties to fix the system,. Because Americans are insanely stupid often
Well that just fascinating old boy, I am sure any american posters on here will be impressed with your knowledge of their country.

Well being gay is who you are. Its not a skill is what i mean. If they want a historic day like "Workers day" or "Women`s liberation" or something, fine. You know. Cake, normal clothes. I am just saying
Or we just keep on not giving a damn about living how others expect us to.
Seriously? Why should we change because you're saying "I don't like that"?

I would at least check to make sure I'm using proper and good grammar and spelling before accusing another of being stupid.

Socialism as a model is authoritarian, dont believe me? Take a look at the history of communism. I do know USA is barely democratic. But replacing it with socialist talking points is hardly gonna fix the broken voting system

My point still stands that you have atrocious and hideous grammar and lots of spelling errors for someone who's standing on a house of glass cards and calling someone stupid.
And I'm aware America and England have some differences when it comes to English. But you seem to have no idea what a socialist actually is, what LGBT actually is, or anything you're rambling on about.
So, yes. Keep calling others stupid while showing us how you fit the bill.
