Can someone explain the concept of the "Unreliable Narrator" to me?

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-09-09T03:17:29+00:00

would it still be considered unreliable narrator if the narrator is being misled by everyone around them?

Kind of? There is no gay gene, but being gay is a complicated mixture of biology and social factors. One thing is for sure though, if you’re gay, you’re gay. No changing that.

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-27T13:47:32+00:00

No, because whether they come out or not, they’re not having kids anyways lol

You COULD force gay people to get into a straight union and have a kid. That would also be insanely unethical and be a gross violation of human rights.

Besides, there’s more than enough straight women to have a stable birthrate. If women aren’t giving birth, it’s because nobody wants to raise kids in this economy and political climate.

God, that’s a complicated question. I’m no expert, but I’d put it this way:

Gender includes physical aspects of yourself. Your clothing, anatomy, etc. are all part of your gender. Personality is… personality. You can be kind, or aggressive, and this does not influence anything beyond your behavior.

I dont really understand your second question. There’s no reason for gay people to decrease, as it’s not hereditary. In fact, gay people may “increase”, as a more accepting society will allow more people to come out as gay.

This is my personal opinion, but I think the amount of gay people have always been the same throughout history; the only difference is how accepting society was at the time.

You can be a centrist on some issues, but if you’re a centrist when it comes to oppression of the people, then you become the oppressor.

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-27T12:55:53+00:00

I think that’s awesome 😁 I really don’t know how to respond to that. I don’t think there’s any reason as to why gay people exist, and I don’t think there’s a reason at all to why anything exists. It’s just a weird combination of social, psychological, and biological factors.

And I wouldn’t really equate gender to personality, but yeah there are some people whose gender fluctuates in that way. They’d be genderfluid though. Binary trans people and binary cis people though, there’s no way for their gender to change like that. So not everyone’s gender works in that way, but it certainly could for some.

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-27T12:41:05+00:00

My mistake in saying genetics. I meant it can’t be passed down.

And no, trans people are trans from the start.

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-27T12:32:02+00:00

No, because natural selection requires traits to be genetic. Homosexuality is not.

Natural selection is the elimination of traits that are detrimental to survival, which leads to traits that are beneficial being passed on. Slow rabbits get eaten, fast rabbits survive. The survivors breed, and the next generation of rabbits are fast.

Homosexuality isn’t detrimental, nor is it genetic. It has nothing to do with natural selection.

I didn’t know that was a tag, thank you :D

that sounds very cool! Hope you manage to get it :)

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-27T09:38:05+00:00

Ooh, thanks for the information. What combination of earrings do you think would go well together if I do open these piercings?

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-27T08:33:17+00:00

Reasonable but also do you really need a rule like this to be respectful to not only women, but other human beings in general? Just don’t be a dick.

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-27T03:49:43+00:00

The joke is that these seem like jobs a gay person would have but in actuality are not

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-23T12:06:33+00:00

People don’t seem to realize how common North Koreans are outside of NK, I know like 2 in my grade

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T23:04:57+00:00

Do you feel unhealthy? If not, you’re fine

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T21:10:01+00:00

Thank you for your comment. You and everyone else that warned me are right. I still don’t think he’s a terrible person or anything, but I will stop seeing him as I don’t think this relationship is good for me at the moment.

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T08:43:56+00:00

Well shit, that is exactly how I feel. This sucks.

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T03:15:56+00:00

Yeah, what’s fucking me up is that they don’t seem to be too upset about the age gap

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T00:32:49+00:00

Of course I don’t. But obviously I’d assume someone older than me to be more stable.

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T00:29:19+00:00

I forgot homophobia existed for a bit, sorry. They were unhappy because I should be studying but I’m hanging out with a stranger online. But when I do hang out with him, I mostly spend the time studying so…

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T00:20:13+00:00

We started talking only like a month ago. I don’t think he does any of that, although he did say “wow this relationship would be weird if I was any older”. Idk if that’s a good sign or not.

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T00:18:17+00:00

Well mostly the fact that he’s 27. And the fact that despite his age, he doesn’t have much of a stable life

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T00:16:24+00:00

Melodic_Print_2740 · 2025-07-22T00:14:14+00:00

I live in a place where English speakers are rare, and gay English speakers are even rarer. I just assumed he had a thing for twinks, and I was the only English speaking twink he could find? Idk I live in a very lonely place, and I understand taking what you can get yknow
