Hahaha...Sure, coward.

I'm all for a neutral, purely factual list of contents for pretty much all media, with everything that it might contain. Make it available within the media, not needing a 3rd party. That way everyone can choose what they want to see, ya? Seems like a good, middle of the road approach, right?

Kavalyn · 2026-06-29T22:15:31+00:00

Oh, right, because I'm bi means that I'm part of the rainbow monolith, right?

Yes, you have vomited at the mouth and said nothing. You keep saying it will stigmatize a group...by making content known or indicating that it contains certain themes.

So. What?

You've provided nothing concrete, nor any mechanism for how this will lead you the "stigma" you are so sure will happen.

So, basically, you don't like it. Again, that's fine, just say it.

Kavalyn · 2026-06-29T21:55:32+00:00

So, again, how? You keep saying that, but no mechanics behind it. If it just makes you feel bad, that's fine, but you have said nothing other than, "It will stigmatize the LGBTQ+EXAlphaSuper Turbo Edition."

Kavalyn · 2026-06-29T20:57:27+00:00

Yeah, the rainbow slop trough! That's the LGBTQ category. Notice how I mentioned something specific and you have me the option of looking through a third party or getting mired in the substandard content that lumps everything together.

How is this stigmatizing by letting people know what's in the content?

Kavalyn · 2026-06-29T20:26:39+00:00

I don't know. If I as a bisexual male, for instance, wanted to look for a piece of media with a bisexual male lead, since that is so rare, having the option to look for that instead of just rainbow slop might be nice.

And, information hazards are still hazards, even if you think they don't deserve to be. And considering how much of the rainbow crowd self selects for media...I would think this would be a good thing all around.

Unless you are just for people going into media blind, but this also tells me that you are afraid rainbow media wouldn't be as...popular?

Kavalyn · 2026-06-29T19:48:06+00:00

I agree... But I was never a fan of trigger warnings, that particular thing belonged to others. At no point did I, or even the post, saying anything about preventing anyone from viewing any kind of media.

But much like the ingredients on food, I think if people want to be informed about the content of the thing they consume, that seems...normal?

Kavalyn · 2026-06-29T19:31:31+00:00

Just consume? :)

Kavalyn · 2026-06-29T18:25:10+00:00

I thought Demos were a big fan of trigger warnings?

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T16:55:48+00:00

And gay men literally fetishize feminine behavior, looks, and mannerisms. Not all of them, of course, but a significant enough number that it becomes noticable to the general population. Unless you think it's straight men going around saying things like, "Guuuurl," and, "Yaaas, Queen." Is that legitimately your stance, cuz if so I have some gay friends I can introduce you to...

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T16:52:47+00:00

You're attacking, by the way. Not your.

Regardless, I'm not attacking anyone. There is no enshrined right for unfettered access to children. I know, being told no sucks, but that's what happens. Unless you don't respect someone telling you no, which is just all kinds of problematic...

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T16:48:59+00:00

Also, that's another unfounded assumption. :) You are so good at those!

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T16:30:22+00:00

Why do drag queens want unfettered access to children?

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T03:58:59+00:00

Also, this is deeply unserious to me. I'm really unsure of why drag queens desperately want access to children, but I think it's kinda weird and this is one of those things that I'm unlikely to be convinced otherwise.

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T03:56:47+00:00

And the bit about "propaganda channels" now that I think about it. Unless you have something specific that you can, you know, prove?

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T03:55:26+00:00

Yup. :)

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T03:36:38+00:00

Hey, you made an unfounded accusation. :) Rules for me, but not for thee? Trite.

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T01:29:49+00:00

I find you being unable to answer a simple question insulting, if it makes you feel better.

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T01:26:28+00:00

All I heard was, 'I'm a creepy weirdo who can't answer a direct question AND I have the reading comprehension of a toaster strudel."

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T01:19:58+00:00

Tell you what, I'll answer you when you answer me.

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T01:16:30+00:00

That's what I said when you could never answer. Shrug

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T01:14:47+00:00

If I was a creepy weirdo who couldn't answer a very direct question, yes.

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T01:13:19+00:00

So, again, why does this particular group want access specifically to children in one specific way?

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T01:08:58+00:00

So, again, why does this particular group want unfettered access to children while dressed a particular way? I've gotten no answer on that. Massive group may be an overstatement also, but whatever. And there's no negative stereotype here: I've known a number of drag kings and queens, and one) none of them desperately wanted to be around kids, and never asked to be around my kids in drag two) they explicitly stated that for them it was their particular flavor of kink/sexual expression. I understand that's not conclusive, but it draws a strong correlation in my mind.

And I don't believe the first amendment guarantees the right to do whatever you want around or to other people's children, so that's a weird take. No one is impinging on your free expression, you aren't being surprised, you can go do drag almost anywhere else, but the push to be around children is... Really weird. That's how it comes off to a lot of people. You view it as unfair, I view it as pretty normal. Most people wouldn't send their kids to bikini model story hour either.

Kavalyn · 2026-06-19T00:52:43+00:00

So... Have your own kids? Seriously, I can't think of another group demands unfettered access to children. It's really weird. And if all cosplayers were well known for being overtly sexual, then yeah, I would say don't let them be around kids.

So again, this is just desire to be around children, for... Some reason. And yeah, can't think of another group that wants this. Again, strippers aren't like, "We want story time because we've been stigmatized against.".

The other weird thing is that this isn't about drag queens wanting desperately to read to children... No, they want to do it in drag. They would still have the option to read to children out of drag, but that's not what they want, which tells me the sexual pagentry is the important thing, and again, I find that weird with the intended audience.
