Which begs the question: how much would the homosexual community need to go through to be considered much of a problem to you?

Hot damn dude.


No I do not believe racism is more of a problem than homophobia. I'm simply
saying that it's a bit more of a sensitive subject because of what happened.
Both racism and homophobia are a bad thing. neither one ups the other.
you're misinterpreting me.
wow that
sucked
Indeed, the homosexual community is making strides in its bids for equality (at least in Europe and the US, in some African countries homosexuality is still a crime punishable by death). But I feel that using derogatory terms perpetuates the ignorance that slows this progression.

I agree with nearlydead. racial slurs are sensitive. with few having an issue with homophobic its not an "issue" when insults occur they will be banned same as racial insults.

in a perfect world, no one would angry.

You both have missed my point, which is that it's disappointing that homophobic remarks aren't met with the same "sensitivity" as racial ones. You claim that racism is more sensitive because of it's history, implying the opposite about homosexuality. You both argue that since the gay community is smaller than the black community it's less important to deal with homophobia than racism. This is an unacceptable viewpoint as far as I'm concerned.

No I have not said anything like that and you have missed my point you utter fucknut.
I said racism is possibly a more sensitive subject than homosexuality. Which answers your
original question. I did not say that homophobia isn't that much of a thing as racism is.
gay marriage is a here and now problem. Racism certainly still exists, but that problem
was dealt with.


It would be great if you could stop putting words in my mouth, please.
wow that
sucked
You keep saying racism is more sensitive and I keep saying homosexuality should be treated with the same sensitivity. What point are you missing?
My signature sucks
You are arguing about what should or shouldn't be.
I am not.


We can go ahead and run in circles all you want, but it's going to end up the same thing.
Abolishing words that "could be hurtful to x y z communities" isn't going to happen.
Your original question was answered anyway, so I don't really understand why you're
still arguing.


If I say anything more on it, then you'd start telling me how much I'm belittling the gays
again. so whatevs, later.
wow that
sucked
Boyos , this will be harsh like a blade.

Because calling someone a nigger\jew etc. is discriminative
Its hate ,and hate is a natural feeling of Human ,whatever generates it(Even if its bullshit)

But invade rectums are not natural, it causes AIDS(I know its not the only way to get aids)
Because rectum is used to get things out of it(if you catch my meaning) and not to let things enter
Btw genetic researches proove that no one born to be gay
Its an aberration , accept it
I'm also against hate towards gays, because we should help those people cure them out of this plague, brain disorder.
