If a gay person tells you they’re only attracted to people of the same sex, and your first response is to angrily go “So you have an obsession with genitals? You’re a depraved pervert who only cares about genitals?” Then you’re… homophobic.
if you don’t include trans people in “the same sex” or “the same gender”, you’re transphobic
Congradulations dipshit, you’re a cotton ceiling incel. Go fuck yourself and leave homosexuals alone.
I can’t believe “don’t make sexuality about genitals” is seen as a radical statement to some people
Like if a trans guy asks you out or hits on you or whatever and you’re first response response is “sorry I don’t like vag” then A) you are absolutely making this about genitals and B) you’re making creepy assumptions about somebody’s genitals. I mean they might not even be trans y’all just think that men and women all fit into some weird cookie cutter and anybody outside of it must be a “faker uwu”
Let’s give the benefit of the doubt and say that in your reply you don’t mention genitals (which based on my own experiences plus what I’ve heard from others, most people like this do mention genitals) if you reply by saying “I don’t date women” or “I only date men” and they tell you they are a man but you continue, then you are deliberately misgendering them and there is no excuse for that
It’s really not hard to say “sorry, I’m not interested” if you feel they are too feminine for your liking
As for talking about it online…. well why would you? what reason other than misgendering trans people do you have to tell people about your dating preferences?
I’m thinking all of what I’ve said is pointless though, considering TERFs and transmeds think that white people putting “no blacks or asians” in their dating profile is also okay because “it’s a preference”
“Don’t make sexuality about genitals” HOW DO YOU THINK PEOPLE HAVE SEX
Do you think people attracted to eachother just fuck all the time??? I’m gonna be reasonable and say ‘probably not’
People can be attracted to eachother without thinking about their genitals, espescially if they are minors, and sex isn’t a necessary part of a relationship
I mean some people just aren’t into sex. Not for any reason –they just aren’t that into it, that doesn’t mean they aren’t capable of feeling attraction or aren’t really the sexuality they say they are
Maybe take a step back and think about this, sexuality is romantic too
This is the worst and dumbest rebuttal lmao
No ofc people don’t have sex all the time and ofc there are people who, for whatever reason, don’t have sex currently.
This isn’t about the latter people.
This is, specifically about people who do have and want sex in their relationship, which ofc they won’t be having ALL the time (nice going there implying that gay ppl only care about sex, nice homophobia buddy!) but when they do have sex, as many people do and want, then genitals ARE going to be important for some people. And those people SHOULDN’T be made to be into sexless unsatisfying relationships (or worse, have sex they don’t want because they’re told they must, and yes that happens, especially with young lesbians your lot has been coercing into ignoring their own sexual desires for inclusivity points) because people should be allowed to specifically desire relationships they’re 100% happy in.
You, a minor, do not get to dictate the sexual lives of adults. People who aren’t having sex aren’t relevant to this conversation, you don’t get to strawman like this and make it about them, this whole conversation is specifically about gay people who do want sex in their relationships (and no, that doesn’t negate the romantic part you homophobe), who do care about genitalia and who should be able to seek the kinds of relationships that fulfill them. Dating is inherently exclusionary, and who I invite into my bed and into my life is MY bussiness only and I get to be as picky as I want because it’s about letting someone into the most intimate part of my life, not about activism and making sure everyone feels included. My body and love are not a political space for everyone to be included in, they’re private and I get to choose who comes near it and for what.
If you don’t agree with that, not only are you a homophobe, but you don’t believe in consent either! Have fun being a monster! 😀
@official-loka, I’m straight and I’d never date a transguy or nb afab etc. Even purely romantically and non-sexually. The very idea of being intimate with someone of the same sex, no matter what gender they identify as, and even if they had SRS, is just uncomfortable to me personally. I’d never be able to do it. But you don’t seem to harass the likes of me as much as gay ppl, I wonder why????? /s
“If autism isn’t caused by environmental factors and is natural why didn’t we ever see it in the past?”
We did, except it wasn’t called autism it was called “Little Jonathan is a r*tarded halfwit who bangs his head on things and can’t speak so we’re taking him into the middle of the cold dark forest and leaving him there to die.”
Or “little Jonathan doesn’t talk but does a good job herding the sheep, contributes to the community in his own way, and is, all around, a decent guy.” That happened a lot, too, especially before the 19th century.
Or, backing up FURTHER
and lots of people think this very likely,
“Oh little Sionnat has obviously been taken by the fairies and they’ve left us a Changeling Child who knows too much, and asks strange questions, and uses words she shouldn’t know, and watches everything with her big dark eyes, clearly a Fairy Child and not a Human Like Us.”
The Myth of the Changeling child, a human baby apparently replaced at a young age by a toddler who “suddenly” acts “strange and fey” is an almost textbook depiction of autistic children.
To this day, “autism warrior mommies” talk about autism “stealing” their “sweet normal child” and have this idea of “getting their real baby back” which (in the face of modern science) indicates how the human psyche actually does deal with finding out their kid acts unlike what they expected.
Given this evidence, and how common we now know autism actually is, the Changeling myth is almost definitely the result of people’s confusion at the development of autistic children.
Weirdly enough, that legend is now comforting to me.
I think it’s worth noting that many like me, who are diagnosed with ASD now, would probably have been seen as just a bit odd in centuries past. I’m only a little bit autistic; I can pass for neurotypical for short periods if I work really hard at it. I have a lack of talent in social situations, and I’m prone to sensory overload or you might notice me stimming.
But here’s the thing: life is louder, brighter and more intense and confusing than it has ever been. I live on the edge of London and I rarely go into the centre of town because it’s too overwhelming. If I went back in time and lived on a farm somewhere, would anyone even notice there was anything odd about me? No police sirens, no crowded streets that go on for miles and miles, no flickery electric lights. Working on a farm has a clear routine. I’d be a badass at spinning cloth or churning butter because I find endless repetition soothing rather than boring.
I’m not trying to romanticise the past because I know it was hard, dirty work with a constant risk of premature death. I don’t actually want to be a 16th century farmer! What I’m saying is that disability exists in the context of the environment. Our environment isn’t making people autistic in the sense of some chemical causing brain damage. But we have created a modern environment which is hostile to autistic people in many ways, which effectively makes us more disabled. When you make people more disabled, you start to see more people struggling, failing at school because they’re overwhelmed, freaking out at the sound of electric hand dryers and so on. And suddenly it looks like there’s millions more autistic people than existed before.
“…disability exists in the context of the environment.”

Canada has an Anti-Black Racism problem.
We need to acknowledge this and do something about it. These stats are obscene:
While Black people made up 8.8% of Toronto’s population in 2016, from 2013 to 2017 they comprised:
– 61.5 per cent of police use of force cases that resulted in civilian death
– 70 per cent of police shootings that resulted in civilian death

More here:
That’s:
61.5% of cases where police beat a civilian to death.
70% of cases where police shot a civilian.Don’t let them obscure who or what is happening here.
