You can't shame and browbeat people into changing their sexual orientation.

I wasn't trying to. no one is trying to. this is completely irrelevant to everything I've said so far in this topic.

But you fail to understand why various cultures perceive beauty the way that they do. Society determines absolutely nothing at all about beauty, only reflects a general consensus. You can tell a person from childhood that the morbidly obese with BMIs well over 40 are the most beautiful people and parade them around as such (just like our fashion industry has done with the extremely underweight). But if you raise the child around people with an average BMI of 20, he'll see those with a BMI of 20 as the truly beautiful, not the obese, because beauty is literally in the eye of the beholder, not in the eyes of society.

you're acting as though this "general consensus" has no effect on the people living in society; that the "eyes of society" have no effect on the "eyes of the beholder." which is false.

smh at these poll numbers. 9.68% is 9.68% too many.

I wonder if the people who voted in that group would date a 80 year old woman or 80 year old man. If you don't, you're discriminating and you are senior-phobic.

You barely try to conceal it in other language but it's exactly what you seek.

How have we as a society let this get so out of hand, that there are posters justifying this and 10% of people are voting yes?

Considering the road we are going down, you cannot reasonably rule out that in 20 years, you could have people saying you're Animalphobic for not fucking animals

Some low intelligence user will try and say I'm comparing transgenders to animals, because they lack basic comprehension abilities. To clarify, for the new ridiculous modding rules, I am not doing that at all. That would be stupid and cruel. I am, however, attacking this bizarre, out of touch with reality bologna that you're able to tell other people who they should be fucking, and call them a bigot if they don't subscribe to your fantasy world

I agree with this, 20 years ago we had the same type of mentalty towards gay people and look where that got us. As soon as we accept that some people are just into what they are into we will all be better off. I wouldn't expect you to be attracted to someone outside of preference anymore then you would expect a gay guy to not be into men right?

Are transpeople discriminating against the sex they were born in? Are gays discriminating against the opposite sex?

When you stop being childish and insecure about yourself, you'll learn that gender doesn't matter

Dickhead, not everyone is pansexual. I'm not gonna act like a salty prick if a lesbian doesn't wanna fuck me, a straight guy.


Why did you say pansexual instead of bisexual
