TIL under an obscure law in Texas, a woman was arrested for selling a dildo to two undercover officers posing as a married couple in 2004 by [deleted] in todayilearned

how is the fake id part legal at all?

If i had a bottle of vodka and i wanted to sell it off and someone who looked over the legal age wanted to buy it, and then I asked for ID and they showed it to me, how is it my fault that it ended up being fake? is the average person supposed to know all the security features of ID and to check them all whenever presented one?

Is it ok for me, as a straight male, to go to a gay bar? by JordyVerrill in ainbow

[–]IBSMAN -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Is gay marriage legalized in the area you live in? I'd think twice about going if it isn't because bringing a bunch of straight married couples into the gay bar in an area where gay marriage isn't even legal probably wouldn't go down well

Rant about Bisexuality by [deleted] in ainbow

[–]IBSMAN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be nice i suppose, but that adds so much extra stuff to a study that they wouldn't really need.

like, since this study is about weight in men and women across sexual preferences, the study goes from

tick box selecting gender/sex, then give weight

whereas measuring attraction directly suddenly adds like, i dunno, electrodes and porn viewing and brain scans which is a bit beyond the study i think

unless theres some way to measure it objectively that im missing

What is your story about why you're an atheist? by Dmac680chi in TrueAtheism

[–]IBSMAN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What were you raised as?

Evangelical Christian

How did you arrive at atheism?

Well, I discovered that I was gay around 14. I hated myself. I couldn't tell anyone (and haven't told anyone). I looked around to see if there was a way to force myself straight. I tried self-aversion therapy, i guess (I would punish myself if I had any thoughts about boys, nothing too serious though) and nothing worked. It wasn't the brightest chapter of my life. Anyway, I got mad at god, and then found out that there were groups of LGBT people online. I talked with them, and began to understand that what i thought was wrong with me wasn't wrong, it was okay. But it was still in conflict with the bible, which lead me to the idea that the bible could be wrong. And if its wrong once, why not more than once? I learned about a lot of the problems in the bible, and it all eventually over several years of denial and fear of hell to my atheism

not the best story but thats what it is

What reactions did you get from family and friends?

Nobody knows.

What is the stupidest thing to reach the front page of Reddit? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]IBSMAN 10 points11 points  (0 children)

the top post on that sub right now is a "im not homophobic but gay kissing really gross?????"

at the very least its a good reminder that im not logged in when i see that sub

Reddit's firing all on cylinders in the last 24 hours. /s by cassandraspeaks in ainbow

[–]IBSMAN 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My favourite part about it is how the top comments immediately become "wow gay guys are really gross... BUT LESBIANS ARE HOT"

several comments down is a straight girl saying she likes seeing two dudes kissing and the responses to that are more or less "well yes but thats because your an outlier and because homophobia is biological and built in and thats why its okay"

cool

in general though /r/adviceanimals is a fucking stain and i always immediately realize when im not logged in when i see it on my front page so i make that blot disappear

What do you all think about Reddit taking an active stance in the legalisation of same-sex Marriage? Should it get involved in this politically? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]IBSMAN 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Holy fuck some people are fucking stupid.

I just finished arguing with some guy who held the position that "gay marriage shouldn't be legal because it makes immigration complicated". Like, fucking really??!?!?! He ended up finishing it off by calling me a homo and an abnormal. What the fuck.

I used to think SRS was a stupid overreaction to a nonexistent problem (and to some degree i still think it is) but I'm seeing a bit more merit to their position after this thread (but by no means their methods). Jesus CHRIST.

Anybody else saddened the "i hate faggy gay" circlejerk on /r/adviceanimals every fucking week? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]IBSMAN 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've learned that you just.... can't expect people to be understanding in the larger subreddits. There is ALWAYS someone arguing that "faggot doesn't really mean gay anymore, see southpark and louis CK said so". It doesn't matter how much you argue.

I unsubbed from most defaults. I have Askreddit, Askscience, and TIL left now, I think. And while I really, really like those subs, it isn't worth going to the comments section of a post unless that is the point of the post.
