Being "bisexual" is obviously too passé these days.
And I am gay. I'm just tired of these attention seekers coming up with these super-nuanced sexualities and gender identities just because they're bored middle class teenagers with shit better to do.
There was a time where we hid being LGBT because it meant getting our teeth knocked out at school. Now it's suddenly the most fashionable thing ever and it's a bandwagon everyone wants to jump on.
I'm kind of over the sensationalism "LGBT" has had this decade. It was nice and refreshing for a while, but it's not making our lives any easier now. It's just creating massive right-wing backlash and setting us back decades.
Ha, you are gay, guess you are just a bored middle class teenager with shit better to do.
On a serious note, thinking anyone now included in LGBT finds being considered LGBT cool is ludicrous. Few if any (probably none) of the people being classified in it now are generally accepted, even by gay people, and you are one more living example. Pansexual people are distinct from bisexual people by definition, and the definition is relevant in the dating world. All new groups also suffer from discrimination and violence, so your point is void. You are also completely naive in thinking neocons have become prominent thanks to them, and ieven if that was really their motivation, it would not matter.
The final paragraph is telling, though. Gay people have attained some acceptance after decades of pressure, and now that you are moderately accepted, many of you (obviously including you) have joined the other side, in order to keep everyone else out. Nice. Unfortunately for you it's not going to work, so you are either going to accept it or suffer over it until death.
I agree with you on that. I'm bisexual. And it's becoming a trend. It's honestly disgusting. However, I will stand for pansexuals, since there is a difference. Pansexuality includes nonbinary people, whom I support. Don't get me wrong, I don't think there are infinite genders, but I do think nonbinary people are valid.
I'm on the fence where nonbinaries stand. I feel like they have the right to identify that way, they even have the right to call it some silly nuanced gender if they wish... I just think it's silly for them to expect everyone to take it seriously, if they're going to fabricate some super-nuanced gender with a million different terms. At the end of they day, people who see you in public do see your physical sex, and it's not a social construct to me.
I don't like it when they claim "trans" personally. That's something else entirely, that's having gender dysphoria and going through hormone treatment and surgery to change to the opposite sex. I think to trivialise that and make being "trans" (or gay) about clothing is a bit offensive.
As far as I'll go is he, she, or they, because I understand feeling in between. But all these made up things are just insulting. And yes, people who claim to be trans without dysphoria are just following the "trend".
"Made up things" lol. It'funny to watch you speaking with so much certainty about what you don't know. In the end of the day, you only accept that which is not accepted when you have felt the same way yourself.
Have you seen Blaire White's videos on this topic? She is a transgender YouTuber and your viewpoints in your comment seem similar to hers. Another good trans YouTuber is Matthew C.
Thankfully they don't care about your view. You have the right to link words together and believe you are thinking... It's just silly of you to expect anyone else to take you seriously. At the end of the day, people who see you in public do see your stupidity, and it's not subjective. Is their identity too nuanced for you? Oh, poor you! How mean of gender binary people for being who they are and messing with your head. Don't worry, though, you can come back to school until you are not confused anymore.
I'm just sorry you fall for the bullshit of someone calling themselves a whole list of stupid things really. Someone comes up to you saying they're a "demiqueer pansexual agender", you're supposed to take that seriously?
If you can't see why this trivialisation of being LGBT is offensive to actual LGBT people, then I'm not the ignorant one here.
If someone who wanted to re-criminalise being openly LGBT came into power tomorrow, that would be my fucked up reality I'd have to live with. I'm gay rain or shine, whatever the political climate. Meanwhile Miss Thing with the blue mohawk and black lipstick can simply change her hair and get a makeup wipe, and live the rest of her life as a normal woman. That is why these people don't speak on my behalf, and while they're free to do what they want, they are not LGBT.
You are ignorant, unconscious of your privileges and, really, a total jerk. If they can live in the closet, so do you. Besides, homosexual people cause more aversion and reaction from the right than gender binary people do. Transgender people cause even more reaction, but they are also the ones that suffer the most violence, that have the identity that is the hardest to hide and suffer the most from hiding it. Your identity is merely sexual orientation, which is not even an inherent part of the self in standard social life. You can live single without negating anything, while gender is only repressed by negating the most basic elements of social identity. Besides, you have the right to call yourself true LGBT, but the fight for rights has always been led by the left, and the actual authority has already passed from your hands, so you are the one that sounds silly believing yourself to be "true" LGBT. You are someone that is affected by LGBT agenda and an unimportant member of the LGBT community, but you are not even close to relevance in actual civil rights activism.
They are offensive to you because you are a bad person who wants all the privilege you have to yourself, plain and simple. You just hapen to be too much of a coward as well to actually admit it.
Right so I have to live single to negate any kind of prejudice in society? That's the fucking problem right there. So much for my fucking "privilege" right?
And this pisses me off too. The nerve of these basically straight people, with a bit of gender nonconformity who just want to be edgy. They come into gay and transgender peoples' spaces and accuse US of being the "privileged" ones, when we tell them no, you're trivialising our life experiences down to clothing and that's not ok.
Fuck off with that shit. If your biggest issue in life is that someone tells you "you're attention seeking" when you clearly make up stupidly nuanced terms for your gender identity to be edgy, you're the fucking privileged one. Like I said, you can walk into a room full of people who are hostile to LGBT people, and just drop that shit and pass.
I can't do that (and yes being gay does come into standard social life, because drains your mental health to hide it) neither can a genuine trans person who has gender dysphoria is physically transitioning (or at least has a wish to). This isn't a game of identity politics to us, it's a fucked up reality that follows us through life that ONLY we experience and you don't. Wondering if coming out means being attacked physically, if we'll get fired, how people are going to judge us. So to then see these people revel in their "identities!" like it's a fun fucking game, it's not.
So don't fucking tell me who is "privileged" and that I'm a bad person, for disliking this hijacking of our narratives and movement with attention-seeking, anti-science bollocks.
What exactly is trendy about bisexuality or pansexuality? Do you actually believe people pretend to be bisexual? Really? Some gay people might even do so from fear, but most probably are going to hide their identity altogether, since being bisexual is not going to make a good impression anyway. Besides, it's ridiculous to think people will flock to a less accepted label if they don't actually feel like they belong. Deep down, you are just reluctant to accept that which does not conform to your own lifestyle.
I myself AM bisexual, I think I would know. Lately, it's been "cool" to be LGBT, especially bisexual. It's supposed to be sexy or something. I'm not saying I understand why people do it, but they do.
Of course not outside America, people are persecuted there. But here in America, bored teens who spend too much time on tumblr definitely think it's cool.
would you date a pan romantic ?

Thank you. I'm not saying people can't be what they want to be. I'm just sick of it being about making yourself "interesting".
Ha, you are gay, guess you are just a bored middle class teenager with shit better to do.

Few if any (probably none) of the people being classified in it now are generally accepted, even by gay people, and you are one more living example.

How is this defending your point? I think people who make up genders are attention seeking, now you explain why they aren't.

It's not about clothing, or a costume you put on.
