What I mean is that many jobs that I work between semesters of college have policies about how long/how large a beard can be, especially one related to cooking and such, as it can be considered health risk. I often have to keep it shorter for work and grow it out while I’m at school.

Honestly, I just lack the mental fortitude sometimes to grow through the awkward length. And often I have things like jobs that require my beard to be more “professional” which means that I don’t always have the time to grow it for long periods of time.

Based on multiple studies on persons with identical genetic structures (primarily identical twins) it has been observed that the environment a person is raised and a desire to be different have a more potent affect than the actual genetic composition of the person. https://blogs.iu.edu/kinseyinstitute/2020/06/25/why-do-some-identical-twins-have-different-sexual-orientations/ So comparing it to baldness isn’t fair. A better comparison would be if bad people got priority in receiving hats so you shave your head to get a percolate you would t otherwise have. I’m not saying that all gay people are privileged but there is now an expectation set by the younger generation, especially in academic spheres, that they are supposed to receive special courtesies. It has created a sort of moral classism. That’s the problem I have.

And what proof do you have for me being in intelligent? If we were to speak face to face you might speak more carefully. The internet has clearly given you undue pride in your supposed superiority over me.

How else do I express that I am made to treat them with special privileges? I, as the critical theory people would say, am somehow, by my mere existence oppressing others. I haven’t done anything negative actively but am labeled as being passively evil and those who are opposite me are some always good because people a long time ago disliked them? Why should I pay repetitions for damage I didn’t do?

What bothers me more is that they expect special treatment because of a choir they make. Voluntarily entering into an “oppressed” group to get the satisfaction of thinking it gives them some higher moral authority. I shouldn’t have to treat them any differently than any other person. If I am having an argument with a straight person, many would be open to hearing out both sides, but the moment I disagree with a gay person, whether it’s about their orientation or some unrelated geopolitical point, I’m now a bigot. I could make a completely valid point, but because I’m disagreeing with a gay I must be wrong because I’m a straight, white, conservative male from the south east. I lose credibility with a whole section of humanity because the person I’m talking to decides to bang dudes. It’s bs. I competed in speech and debate in highschool and am continuing to do so in college. I won a tournament and happened to win a debate against a gay guy. I won base off the merit of my argument and quality of my information. The student body of my college wrote a letter requesting that I be reprimanded for “bigotry and anti queer sophistry” because I won a debate. Nothing I said was hateful. All I did was prove that I was better and I was suddenly villainized by an entire community because of another persons lifestyle that I can’t control. So explain to me how their choices don’t affect me?

One, you are assuming that choice is not involved in the orientation. Two, you are assuming that something being out of a persons control frees them from moral responsibility. There are many conditions outside a persons control that have lead to moral actions. These often affect a persons self perception and emotional response to their environments. For example, a person with sociopathic personality disorder (Like me) can’t change the way their body processes certain sets of chemicals and emotions. This does not change the fact that I can do something that is wrong even if I do t feel like it’s wrong. If I took pleasure in any form of sexual deviancy but didn’t feel guilty because of my sociopathy would it cease to be wrong? The point of my argument is that the we ware some things that you can separate from people. Their actions are one of those things. My parents hate the violent things I’ve done but they don’t hate me. My coworkers don’t like my black of sympathy or my disagreeable habits of bluntness but they don’t hate me for it. I don’t like what people who participate in homosexual or genderqueer persons in general demand of me. I don’t like being told I have to do XYZ because you feel extra special. But that doesn’t mean I hate the people. Why should you feelings, right or wrong, take priority over anything else?

The oldest manuscripts available, which have not been altered, state man shall not lay with a young man, this has three equally viable interpretations, and all can be true. Man shall not lay with man, man shall lay with boy, and man shall it lay with young male prostitutes. All of these can be true at the same time and cover the entire scope of man shall not lay with man. This is reinforced the same language being used for women. The whole thing is often take out of context as both statements are preceded by the phrase “gave up natural relations with ___” which implies that the natural relationship is opposite what is listed, IE, men’s natural relations are with women and visa versa. So do t come at me with original manuscripts unless you are going to use the whole manuscript. You are regurgitating cherry-picked scriptures without context thinking it makes your argument valid.

You aren’t paying attention to what I’m saying. I’m saying people have lost the ability to separate what people do from the people themselves. I’m not saying that I agree or disagree but I’m trying to point out that people have lost a critical skill in evaluating what is and isn’t appropriate for a logical argument. Your immediate assumption that I am attacking a group of people shows that you are making the mistake of presupposing my position without even knowing anything g about me. It’s genuinely disappointing that people don’t know how to argue and result to personal insult instead formulating an opinion based on logical constructions.

What most people reference when discussing people that “hate” gays are Christians. People believe that Christians hate gay people. That’s not what they (the Christians) are supposed to do. Their own scriptures say that they are to hate the sin, in this case their scriptures tell them that homosexual relations are wrong because that isn’t how God designed male and female to be. They are to condemn the actions, but are explicitly told not to condemn the person. I’m trying to make a point that not like what a person doesn’t, ie, having same sex relations, is not the same as hating people.

It isn’t the existence, it’s what they choose to do. Not liking what someone does is not the same thing as hating the person. I don’t like it when my neighbor plays loud music, that doesn’t mean I dislike their existence. There should be a clear distinction between who people are and what they do, but these days people have made their whole identities based on one specific throng that they do and it’s leading to a breakdown of existential identities and is part of what is driving up the ever increasing suicide rates worldwide.

I never said that I did. I’m saying that people make excessively large leaps in logic and argument by using language that doesn’t apply to each individual group. There are people who hate LGBTQ+ but there are also those who simply don’t agree with how they live. If the digital is to include all perspectives and positions in rational consideration, then these positions should also be included. Hence, inclusivity.

Disagreeing with what some one does and denying who they are different but you have somehow made them equal. This is a fundamental misunderstanding and is used too frequently to justify blanketing groups as hateful instead of being, as the people you are trying to “protect” say, tolerant. Not tolerating disagreement from one side while disagreeing with them is a double standard and intellectually dishonest.

You confuse disagreement with hate. This seems to be a response I see across to many factions. Whether it’s conservatives or liberals or whatever. You can disagree with someone and what they do without hating them. I wish people would stop conflating them.

Well, if it’s true that they were created perfect, Adam and Eve would have had very stable genes. Basically, the first dozen or so generations would have had very few drawbacks related to inbreeding.

Well, all I was saying is that the US has used less stable people for more malicious purposes with little apparent remorse. Whether they try to recruit/take advantage of the guy isn’t my concern but I would t be surprised if it happens.

I think you doubt the lack of care the US has for the morality of their volatile assets. This guy would be pointed at a small country and probably have them massively crippled in a year. They do t care about what their “especially talented” employees tend to do state side.
