I'm pretty sure the world's most popular god, as imagined by straights, would best be described as asexual given His lack of wife, girlfriend, etc. Even His earthly son didn't have a romantic / sexual partner (overtly, at least).



This is unlikely to be true. They probably didn't like gay people for no other reason than that they were a) rare and b) different. For much the same reason, left-handedness and red hair were often viewed negatively, too. For instance, the term "sinister" comes from the root for "left-handed".
God is everything so he can't have something like a wife or girlfriend since they'd also be just him too, he's just the top class masturbator in the universe.


The left handed thing is because back then there was no toilet paper so people would wipe with their hands and most people are right handed so they used their left for it but some who would be left handed would still be taught to use their left hand and they would also use it for all other stuff too and that'd cause illness and contamination so they tied it to them being evil rather than to germs because they didn't know any better.

And there's tons of verses in the bible about being fruitful and multiplying because they needed kids to fight the philistines and all other random enemies of the time.

My point wasn't that you can't do it but that it's wrong for very obvious reasons, if that wasn't clear.
It's wrong to blame someone for literally "living in a society", but it's differently wrong to blame a disabled person for having a harder life because of their disability.

You see, as the point of this very thread, we can ask that a person living in a society -- in this case it's one with a straight culture -- tries to imagine a perspective outside of said culture and gaze upon the norms of our sexual relationships. After that you can just throw your hands in the air saying it's all good, if you feel like it. Being in denial and saying such a perspective doesn't reveal anything at all is willful ignorance, and denying straight culture entirely implies one doesn't understand how culture affects people that grow up and live in it. Maybe I'm required to have some patience, as I kinda obsess over straight culture and how it affects me (among other things...), and as I said earlier rejecting it would leave me with nothing. So I have plenty of ruminations to put in here.

I just saw this on TYT. ( Yeah I am getting old)

It would be funny if this wasn't a thinly veiled attempt to marginalized trans-people.

Just to step in here. By saying they generally aren't attracted to them?
It does bring up a slightly concerning question of "Well are people obliged to pretend to be attracted to some people or groups or it's exclusionary now?"
I've always worked on the assumption a person isn't attracted to me until there is an indication they might be like some level of flirting.

Well because being straight is the majority opinion in America, and the majority being proud of themselves leads to policy outcomes that are suboptimal like nationalism, and various ism. Two it pits straight people against each other in a publicly visibly way designed to get straight people who would date trans-women or men into not doing so for fears of social shunning.

It's pretty simple actually, the reason why the super straight movement is transphobic is that they are very clearly saying that they don't see trans people as their gender, the guy in the tik-tok even says "To me that's not a real woman", and it's a sentiment echoed throughout the rest of the people using it, so to be clear the attraction is irrelevant, disregarding the fact that it's impossible to tell who is trans and who isn't purely based on looks, the reason why it is transphobic it's because of what they're saying.

So a bunch of whiny fucks on social media decided to antagonize trans people over a perceived offense. Why do other straight people have to be such a goddamn embarrassment?

Super straight people are the embarrassment, leave the rest of the straight people out of it. Come to think of it, this is a super easy way to recognize people that are utter shitheads, if someone professes to be super straight they can easily be cut out of our lives and nothing of value will be lost.

It's virtue signaling but where the virtue is that one is an asshole. Asshole signalling?

By existing and having their own dumb hashtags?

I've not seen active antagonism it just seems like them existing and people finding they exist has been enough to get a reaction......
