My mom explained homosexuality to me at a Burger King, ruined Whoppers for life

I never get tired of this one. One day it just won't matter anymore.

Good intentions, but why do people have to lie? I've had it with kids asking for snacks after having homosexuality explained to them.

I've heard of a great clinic in Arizona for biscuit addiction. the key is isolation from all of the country made fluffy biscuits.

Liking biscuits is a genetic thing. You can't fix that.

I have had a very similar conversation with my little kids (while watching Project Runway), no biscuits were harmed.

Does anyone else just want everyone to hurry up and legalize gay marriage so we can move on to other things?

Is.. this a repost but British-ized? I remember it being a cookie.

It was honestly more difficult to explain to my kid why some people would like to buy bloody weapons at halloween than homosexuality.

This repost is gay.

The hardest thing I've had to explain to my kid is that Christmas isn't in October even though the supermarket has their decorations up.

My nieces have known I'm gay since they were old enough to understand love. They just call my partner 'Uncle' too, and love him like one.

foxearredasshole
right, but if the frat is part of the the school and the school is state owned could that make a difference? It would be considered public.
Definitely. I wouldn't be surprised if the fraternity is somehow a legally separate entity specifically to insulate themselves from suits.

As a Christian, I can't wait until homosexual discrimination is as barbaric a notion as slavery. Equal rights to absolutely everybody.

I'm sure the best way to get the message out is with sarcastic pictures like this. Everyone respects sarcasm.

As an atheist, I can't wait for Christians to not be thought of as all homophobic

Well considering what they claim to be and what they claim to obey... it's not a horrible assumption...
To the LGBTQ community and its allies, it certainly feels barbaric. I wish empathy were more of a thing! You rock.
JackCoughlin
Except for blacks, Jews, Muslims, gays, Asians, Indians, and anyone else who isn't a white male. Actually not even them. No one gets rights.

as a gay man irl you deserve a very big and strong hug! thank you!

I'm usually very wary of religious people because of how fucking mad some of them seem. People like you give me hope, though.

We're not all like that, I promise! Some Christians (like me) believe that God created love and love is never wrong.

Discrimination's bad, but slavery's in a completely different league.
rawrcake
They're both in the same league of uncivilized bullshit that the world doesn't need.
If shouting 'Fag' at strangers was an NFL team, then enslaving and murdering gay men would be the two acts playing in the super bowl.
Do you think that's the only thing that happens? Kids are kicked out of their homes, people are driven to suicide, or even murdered
Oh right, ok, I didn't realise they get it so bad. Most people are cool around gay guys here in the UK.
It's a real fucking problem, it's not insignificant.
You have systematic discrimination in some places, legal discrimination in other places, and crimes that are never investigated elsewhere.
Even the less violent stuff is still awful
(but both are wrong) Obvs
Honestly, claiming that the problems of LGBT people are somehow insignificant compared to slavery, is a load of bullshit. It's bullshit.
I'm sure you're totally cool with 12 year old kids ending up whoring themselves for survival because their parents hated them.
Sweatpantsboner
except pedophiles
myfaceisfullofhotdogs
(U.S) Even pedophiles have equal rights because our rights are only allowed until the point at which they infringe on another's rights. 1/2
Pedophiles would then be perfectly able to enjoy the same rights as everyone else and nobody is allowed to give children the bad touch. 2/2
CindyWho4
I don't think pedophilia and homosexuality even belong in the same conversation and it drives me nuts that they are put together CONSTANTLY.
The uneducated seem to enjoy trying to conflate the two, despite their having no relationship whatsoever.
Well....yeah...
juicebocks
Now that is more of a legal issue, child abuse should always be illegal. If the couples are over 18, I don't really care about the age gap.
enzio64
For now. "Everything you say against pedophilia is discrimination." It's coming, unfortunately...
thefiltersaurus
I'm not sure why this was downvoted... I think its a legit fear to have... NAMBLA, it exists ugh
wizardboy24
Legally, children cannot make their own decisions. Therefore, no one has a child's consent to enter sexual relations with them.
Legally, homosexuals cannot marry (in many places)...for now. That's what I'm saying; the laws are changing. NAMBLA lawsuits inc.
There is a difference between two consenting adults and a consenting adult and a child.
