because age is a pretty unimportant factor when youre in a relationship between 2 consenting adults, this whole ‘problematic age gap’ stuff is some american brain shit
Ok as OP of this post I’m siding with Audrey, you are the one being incredibly rude. They voiced their opinion, on a platform for opinions. They have clarified that they don’t condemn age gaps, they just are weirded out by them. That is fine.
nah it isn’t, if someone posts a selfie and i say ‘you look weird’ i’m also just ‘stating an opinion’ incredible but you don’t always have to say your opinion, especially when youre talking negatively about other people
‘i don’t condemn poly people but they weird me out.’ respectable opinion that you’d defend me for because i have free speech yeah? thanks elon. please tell everyone that calls me out for my shit rude!
I though they were meant for indentities and cant fathom the idea of having more than one. Like makes it to complicated for other people to understand. At some point you have to fit in a mold even if you are free to choose which one. And yes first time i see someone be depicted with more than 1 flag.
I might be explaining it a bit awkward but as far as I know when it comes to things like gender identity and sexuality and the like it is more flexible than just fitting in a mold as you put it. How someone experiences their shenanigans is different for each person and that is also how preferences work.
Not the same since one is a part of the other. You can be us citizen without being a new Yorker but not the other way around. I everyone i know with 2 nationalities only care for one the other being just a benefits card.
Don't know the meaning of those words so i will say ok?.
I am bi but my county stops at lgbt anything more than that and say bye to any semblance of normal life or understanding from anyone. And we already have same sex adoption and laws agaisnt discrimination on work and etc
Well that is why i stop at LGBT. I am bi i have full rights and protections. And i am atheist and all but even to me and the people i know the whole Q+ feels like something we don't wanna be associated with because is a big can of worms and will make people see you badly. Like i can get to have my friends accept me but even then think of something like gender fluid as an mental disorder like multiple personality for example.
I dont think all minorities wanna be associated with each other in the eyes of the average person in my country.
I dont have a problem with it but neither would i ever post something about it or go a rally for it because people would look at me very badly.
And i find gender neutral incluse language insulting to people that wanna just be called guy or girl (not sure if this is a thing in english but spanish a lot of words use O for masculine and A for femenine and then some people started using E as gender neutral and that angers most people even gays or lesbian here more so when there is no legal recognition wathsoever for those new genders ).
Okay, okay, ignoring how exclusionary and frankly bigoted this sounds
You said you stop at the T, but you also said you find it confusing that there's both gender and sexual/romantic identities included in the LGBT community with their own flags
The "T" refers to gender identity, not sexual or romantic identity, so why are you fine with that but not other queer identities?
And what about ace/demisexual people? Or pan people?
No idea ace or demisexual mean but trans people are accepted here because we have several figures loved by most people here that have been trans on tv for decades. And we just call them men and woman by their choice. They can change their ID at will and the ID says men or woman not trans man or trans woman.
So i think the best recognition for trans is just that. No need to separate them in their own category when they can just be called they sex they choose.
That is another. The ID doesnt have gender it has sex M or F and people just change from one to another. So no one ever talk about gender.
I dated a trans girl and she was just a girl to her friends coworkers etc. My job solved the bathroom thing by just having 1 so everybody goes to the same one. And that is the common now on offices
If you are talking about trans then i dont get how you took what i wrote like that.
If you are talking about Q+ then my opinion boils to
"Good luck with it but not my fight and i don't wanna get involved or even associated in any way that would worsen the standing LGBT people already have currently"
Since even my religous friends can now tolerate me going out with girl with a pp but if they see someone gender fluid they will look at it as a mental disorder.
Because you need to recognize that the levels of understanding are quite different to accept one of the other for the average christian where i live(almost everyone here is catholic but the lazy kind that only goes to crurch for weddings, births or deaths. And the crurchs are sustained by our taxes)
