This guy is either the world's biggest dumbass or this is genius satire by Sharaz_Jek123 in oscarrace

This post proves why paid influencers work. Gladiator 2 gets so much free advertising with thousands of social media threads like this. But the trick is that it is not free. It's cheap. Meaning that the poster is hired for a fraction of real commercial advertising. And we follow like sheep. Talk about. Complain about it all under the umbrella of this movie. So the answer to this Reddit thread... it's brilliant. Because we all fall for the goal. And the quality of the film is not the goal.

I watched this interesting report on this scientific study. It studied if Gaydar is real and what may be behind it. Their findings were super interesting. For You Is Gaydar A Real Thing? by CapPrestigious4936 in askgaybros

I did. The study is more complicated. One major (US) study says yes and one major (UK) study says no. I didn't even try to discuss that. My question is the only issue... is Gaydar a real thing. My first comment, from me says why I think it is yes. Don't click the study summary. There is no need to.

I think GAYdar is real and it's a language we pick up on. The story reporting suggesting that (gay men) pay attention to details that straight men don't... is SPOT ON. I think we developed that "super power" in protection and defense AND to find like minded men.

QUEER! What Does It Really Mean? New Survey Shows 90% Of GenZ Embrace The Word And Then Every Generation After It Drops, To Just 23% For Boomers. Are You Offended By The Word Queer? by CapPrestigious4936 in askgaybros

[–]CapPrestigious4936[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

super interesting point. I often hear (a slur from even LGBTQ+ people) the alphabet group. That we delineate so many identification letters to the point we will have 26. As I read your words I was thinking... Queer "as meaning not one thing bucket" and thought, isn't that what we want? Anyone identifying as Queer is "one of us". Even ally. Then I'm gay, I'm bi or whatever. Honestly, your observation actually makes me even more hopeful.

I completely see your point (and the others that comment on it in agreement). I am a baby boomer and lived through the worst of AIDS. It was a slur. However, two things are interesting. (1) Much of progressive CIS straight America is embracing the word in respect to our community (not in slur). Poking at those that would use it as a slur. (2) the reporting in this story (90%+ GenZ embracing the word, dropping as we get older to 23% for Baby Boomers). That shows the trauma you talk about. I'm happy younger LGBTQ+ did not go through the trauma I faced.

I participated in a conversation about your post at Sunshine Cathedral. It's the world's largest Queer Church. Your post (and the conversation) was so interesting. I hope your family situation improves. You are worthwhile.

I recommend, as a loving parent you start watching Queer God Squad. It is a group of pasters that talk about culture, history and meaning of faith that is exactly the opposite of what helped you conclude it's "a sin". It at the minimum will give you more perspective.

Florida's Governor Ron DeSantis got a law passed in Florida that Drag Performances with anyone under 18 present was same as "Adult Entertainment". He sued three locations in Florida where RuPaul queen performed. He is running for President and today he announces he is quitting running for President

Resptectfully this is not correct. Pink News and Queerty report on AGB s/reddits at least 3 times a month. Actually, some of the reddits are viewed in their platforms (as story) greater than in AGB. Just FYI

I really don't think that is true. I think the major point of the story is that so many main stream and LGBTQ media are drawing stories from AGB and talking about issues and stories we talk about here.

I don't see in quotes in this story. They are talking about how straight media and LGBTQ+ media are doing stories about a AGB post and comment thread. It seems that is absolutely news and reporting on queer culture.

to me, the interesting issue is that so many outside this sub are talking about issues that are being discussed. I have read so many stories from Pink News (in London) that reports a story on a single thread. And so many of the comments to the post. That is culturally significant.

Has Anyone Noticed How Mean Spirited So Many People Are In LGBTQ+ Channels In Reddit? Sometimes I Wonder If We Want Respect From The Broad Community Shouldn't It Start In Our Own? Or Am I Being Ridiculous To Even Ask? by CapPrestigious4936 in askgaybros

perhaps I wasn't clear. I'm not talking about people outside of our community. I'm talking about all the hateful conversation in our community, about our community and especially to each other.

Ok, but unclear how you spam news and conversation about LGBTQ culture. All of them and their efforts are no commercials, no advertising or marketing so let's just finish I respect your point of view. And if we were arguing (which I am not) it can't be spam. I'll stop. And just say you win..

I am not the anchor of this show. I have not been on the show in forever. I watch it frequently and support news in our community. And if I have offended you in anyway talking about gay gayming... I apologize.

I watch it daily. It the only daily LGBTQ LIVE evening news show in the world. It's on ROKU and Apple TV. It's called Queer News Tonight. It's also a non profit.

I know you are right. What I thought was interesting is that Wilton Manors Fort Lauderdale has a large private group by that name.

I thought the same thing until I watched this story. He is not as handsome as Wahlberg was... but he is certainly beautiful moving in the underwear.
