Woman is some countries are forced to marry old farts who are sometimes 5x older then they are. In some countries they don't have any rights. Its the same fucking thing but I don't see the "western" countries making a big issue and spending millions on parades to make people aware what is happening there.
And you just keep on going "NO! MAINSTREAM MEDIA IS NOT IMPORTANT! IT HAS NO INFLUENCE OVER ANYONE! NEITHER DO UNIVERSITIES! NOR "ANTI-MANSPREADING" INITIATIVES BY ACTUAL COMPANIES!"
At this point, the president could probably be the literal incarnation of Tumblr and you'd still say: "You're exaggerating! She doesn't have enough influence!"
Of course they do. And yet it's silly to expect gay men not to talk about sexy men with other people. "Keep it to yourself" is inherently telling people that they shouldn't talk about who they are. Society doesn't expect men and women not to talk about how sexy they find each other. They shouldn't expect men not to talk about how sexy they find other men, or women women.
You may not have paid attention to it, but people absolutely did. Hell, I remember Ellen DeGeneres being forced off her TV show when it became public that she was gay, and that was the mid-90s.In the same place I am right now. Again do people have pointy arrows over their head ? No we don't. talking about sexuality is like talking about politics. It becomes interesting the moment someone mentions it in most cases you wouldnt even pay attention to it.
Look at the origin of the Gay Pride Parade. They've been doing this stuff from the beginning too.Carnival is one thing ( just look at origin ). Parade is something different.
If gay men walk down the street holding hands they should be fined? Should they not be allowed to hold hands? If they hold hands, should that give people the right to ridicule them?Age is something different, same as eye color, hair color it is something you see it is more like a "phase" you go through ( age and hair mostly ). Sexual acts are one thing, if you do them on the street you should be fined no matter what your sexual preference is. That is ahy I said, no one cares if you are gay or not until you tell the world about it.
Pride as a movement helped people begin to move out of the closet so that they didn't have to hide these things. That's good.
'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
Or a yawing hole in a battered head
And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
And there they lay I damn me eyes
All lookouts clapped on Paradise
All souls bound just contrarywise, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
Cool I might tweet a bit. I've also went to a counter protest to the Gay Pride Parade here.
Is this where you went off the rail for good?
Want to quote me on anything that might indicate that? Or me saying that media has no influence at all? Actually, just go back and quote me on anything you are accusing me, that should be fun. Turn back, real life is the other way.
I'm sure they're valid concerns, to you. To me, I don't care because even if this stuff was going on at my school I have absolutely 0 idea because I don't participate in the campus politics and stick to learning and facts, not peoples opinions which waste time that I could use studying.

You don't have to care. Hell, World War 3 could break out and you could not care. The problem is you barge in and tell others they shouldn't care. And that's where I disagree with you.

Yes, I know you can dismiss and call things you disagree with paranoia, but can you actually reply with something of worth? Like, you know - a reason why no one should take the MSM dishing out propaganda, or universities telling white men to hate themselves, or companies fighting and legitimizing the absurd, misandrist concept that is "manspreading".

No, mainstream media is just that.
MAINSTREAM media.
This includes Fox, Huffington Post, Gawker, The Guardian, etc.
If you were to use Fox's conduct as an argument, I wouldn't go "LOL, you just call it mainstream to serve your argument."
You are mixing things now. having sexiest remarks in public isnt really a good thing no matter if you are gay or straight. Between friends is Ok to some degree. I wont be talking about how i think that girl infront of me has < insert the most sexiest word you can think of > ass with my sister, mother, father or female friend. There are always limits....
Because she labeled herself as gay. That's what im tryeng to say. No one cares until you start the topic about something.
yeah but carnivals are few millenias older
Again, most people just don't pay attention until you rub it in their face.
G2G now, need to make dinner and gonna download S vs B and watch it....
