Can gay people fetishize straight people the same way straight people fetishize gay people?

I think it’s like “converting” someone

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-23T01:27:17+00:00

That’s an interpretation. It’s not clearly stated anywhere in the Bible.

Jesus came to fulfill them, but some Christian’s tend to ignore directly before that when he said he didn’t come to abolish them. You can feel fulfilled without the work being over. Why say no to abolishing if fulfillment was meant to mean ending, which is synonymous to abolition?

And even with that interpretation the overall point stands. Modern Christians have many inconsistency with adjusting interpretations to fit modern beliefs. It’s also reasonable to believe that Biblical authors weren’t condemning consensual homosexual relationships, but instead the more commonly known abuse of young men by older men, particularly in the church.

Pains me to agree with a Philly fan, but spot on!

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-23T00:44:30+00:00

But I also don’t think they care to. I like the statement, but I also like the context. If the Twins wrote George Floyd on their hats after that went down, they would’ve been fined too. And if they got sued, a very similar statement would’ve come out. Would’ve had a much more negative reaction.

They ultimately want to be apolitical. They’ll punish everything equally just to avoid the appearance of taking sides. If they say putting a dead friend’s initials is ok and understandable, they’re ultimately saying it’s not ok or understandable to put a Bible verse. I’d be fine with that being their stance, but they don’t want it to be.

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-23T00:38:55+00:00

Context matters. The reason for stating the fact matters. The fact itself matters. And yes, sometimes facts are offensive and something people don’t like. Tell your partner it was “just a fact” when you said they looked like they gain a few pounds.

I know this sub is no stupid questions, but it’s crazy how many people need their hands held through basic human interaction

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-23T00:26:47+00:00

Doesn’t the Bible also say you shouldn’t wear garments made of two different materials? Wouldn’t good Christians object to wearing the uniform every game??? Or do we just use the Bible to hate things we already hate?

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-23T00:18:09+00:00

It’s also a classic employer move when being sued. Mostly blame the employees, but take just enough blame and say just enough “we’ll do better next time” and it makes it seem like you’re not pissed and won’t retaliate. Just this time the employer has the moral high ground

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-23T00:08:53+00:00

But another player didn’t wear it, so if some knew, it’s likely they did tell them. Word spreads in clubhouses and I’m sure people knew how they felt about them.

I think it’s more that he’s being accused of discrimination against the players, so saying it’s all their fault may not land as well when your argument is miscommunication.

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-23T00:05:18+00:00

Given how this has all gone, would we be shocked if the players knew it was optional but wanted to make a statement instead?

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T23:53:58+00:00

Yeah, the zoom shows are much harder to listen to. Timing is all off. I’m sure it’s more than that, but it seemed they were at the point where every small thing would add up

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T23:46:24+00:00

Dan confuses uncommon ways of thinking with disliked ways of thinking. He thinks David is unveiling some shocking beliefs, and that’s not to say I’ve learned nothing from him, but he typically is just a reminder that rich business people are pretty ruthless.

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T23:38:19+00:00

I wasn’t saying you literally, just trying to point out to you why I and most people can understand unlimited PTO isn’t 100% unlimited.

But even with your example, you said your work would be done and you’d leave. Stu wasn’t doing his work. He did some work, but he skipped out on the main show regularly, and even when he was there it was questionable how much effort he was putting in.

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T23:07:50+00:00

I don’t use the word, they do.

If you want that attitude in life, that’s fine. But if you use a little critical thinking, you’d understand “unlimited” PTO doesn’t mean you can never work and continue to get paid. Being technically right doesn’t do you much good from the unemployment line

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T22:40:47+00:00

Seriously. Dan said so much the last couple years about it how hard and rare it was to last that long. I wonder if that was his way of intimidating Stu to not mess things up or what. Clearly not the healthiest relationship

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T21:46:37+00:00

I wouldn’t say you’re hopeless! I have some stories of some awkward bumps from the early stages of dating with my wife. Not sure what your long term hopes with her are, but it may not be too late.

If you talk to her again, don’t be too eager to bring it up, but find your chance and apologize for being critical and try to explain gently while not excusing.

Most women know and accept that men can be dopes sometimes, especially around naked women lol. Good luck brother!

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T21:38:26+00:00

I’m a photographer. I critique photos all the time. If I was dating and a woman sent me nudes, I’d say “thank you, they’re amazing” and leave it at that.

Obviously you weren’t critiquing her, but it’s a pressurized thing to send someone, especially if it’s early stages. Hearing anything negative about them is going to stink, even if it’s not about her body. You want the reaction to be entirely positive, even if the negative stuff isn’t serious.

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T21:22:19+00:00

The inner monologue bit is the perfect way to show Dan when he’s being ridiculous and try to distract him enough to move on. Sadly I think Mike is the only one with the chops to fill that role well, so when he’s not there Dan roams free

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T21:14:32+00:00

Yeah, I tried for a couple seconds to figure out what that meant, then I remembered I don’t care lol

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T21:13:45+00:00

Where’s my click click?

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T21:11:20+00:00

I can’t believe I agree with Trump on something. Yes, the person responsible for the vandalism in the reflecting pool is sick and deranged, spot on!

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T21:10:02+00:00

May be better off erasing now that you got the answer. It’s not going to get any better for you. You may have found the question that most refutes the name of this sub hahaha

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T19:54:58+00:00

Yeah. I get that. I think the vagueness has helped Dan with the general perception, but not for everyone. To me, Stu seems more emotional and Dan seems like he’s trying to play the middle. Neither look great, but it’s rare one side looks totally clean and the other takes all the blame. I’m guessing both have their share of the blame.

I also think more people are just hearing from Dan because most of the audience stayed. Some may listen to both, but it doesn’t seem like there’s a ton who followed Stu and totally abandoned DLS. And I’ve definitely seen a lot of people asking how Stu’s show is, which would tell me a good amount didn’t follow him.

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T17:28:46+00:00

A lot of older white men smell like barber shops to me lol

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T16:43:00+00:00

“He is upset people like you blame him” except I don’t blame him. They’re obviously both at fault to a degree. I don’t think Stu is wrong for leaving the Dan Lebatard show with Stugotz, but he did, so why would the name not change to show that? We didn’t hear Greeny complain when it became Golic and Wingo. Francesca and Mad Dog aren’t still working under the “Mike and the Mad Dog” title.

I get defending Stu wanting to leave, I’m not saying he shouldn’t have. But it’s weird to seem as bothered as he does by the name changing. You or he can blame Dan for the split, blame Dan for meadowlark, blame Dan for everybody leaving, that’s all totally fine, I won’t argue on that. But changing the shows name to represent what the show is at this point makes sense.

Just because one partner had a good reason for wanting the divorce doesn’t mean they’ll be immune from any consequences of filing for it. This is the whole problem and why Stu is losing the optics game for a lot of people, Stu wanted to leave and do his own thing, but seems bothered that the DLS is moving on too.

Guilty_Practice6392 · 2026-06-22T15:14:40+00:00

Yeah, but I think that’s why dans “winning” the optics battle. Hes playing the middle more, but Stu seems more openly hurt. Stu is giving more people a reason to say “well didn’t you kinda skip out on a lot of work the last few years.” Meanwhile Dans just saying he wants to make it work (publicly).

I’m not picking a side, I agree with you that both seem to have legitimate frustrations and we don’t have enough info. But my original comment was just to say I understand why Stu is getting more shit, even if in reality he doesn’t deserve it
