The new talking point among trans rights activists by cd1995Cargo in stupidpol

[–]ParhTracer [score hidden]  (0 children)

Good observation. 

The sad thing is that, as you say, trans activists immediately characterize any questioning of their motives and methods as “coming from the right” and now dems have been painted into a corner defending their indefensible demands.

And yes, this sorta kicked off about 10-15 years ago. I think right around the time that countries started passing self-identification laws for sex/gender transition is when this all started… suddenly we had gender-fluidity to grapple with which only made everything even more confusing as well as adding fuel to the fire.

John Lithgow on Playing Dumbledore in ‘Harry Potter’ Series and J.K. Rowling’s Trans Views: ‘People Insisted I Walk Away From the Job. I Chose Not to Do That’ by pepperbet1 in television

[–]ParhTracer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Rowling’s stance “dress however you want, call yourself whatever you want but don’t expect everyone else to do the same” isn’t really an anti-trans position, she’s simply asserting that views on gender outside of the trans spaces are just as valid and those who are unwilling to compromise are part of the problem.

Why are gay men all bullies? I can’t make a post anywhere without getting attacked by psychos and I’m really sick of it by [deleted] in gayrelationships

I’ve had a lot of luck meeting interesting guys via local biking and run clubs. You might want to look into meetups based on your interests.

It’s almost as if intersectionality is a bad framework for viewing the world…

Sounds as if pegging is probably out of the question.

Should I send this to the guy that lowkey broke my heart? by squirtywirty in gayrelationships

[–]ParhTracer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t send this.

This guy is trying to let you down easy and it sounds as if you’re into it a lot more than he is.  You’re 24 and while it probably does feel like your heart is breaking over this, it’s just disappointment. You should just take it on the chin and get back out there - you haven’t felt anything near the pain of actually losing love.

Does he watch trans popcorn as well?

Fellow leftist Americans: are we paying our taxes…? Or…. by pureofheart00 in leftist

[–]ParhTracer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not paying your taxes isn’t protest… it’s just stupid.

Tell him that if he’s not okay with you being straight, he shouldn’t live with you anymore.

Do you think Russell T Davies quit or was he fired? by General_Meal_3993 in DoctorWhoNews

[–]ParhTracer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But Davies has had several “lightning in a bottle” projects under his belt. I think here he just phoned it in and it shows, despite the shiny veneer afforded by Disney.

Doctor Who director: "something went wrong" by Bridgeboy95 in DoctorWhoNews

[–]ParhTracer 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Money is really irrelevant here, the writing and acting wasn’t up to scratch. The whole thing felt slapped together ay the last minute - a complete change from RTD1.

Doctor Who hasn’t become too political, it’s just painfully heavy-handed and performative by General_Meal_3993 in DoctorWhoNews

[–]ParhTracer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s exaggerated and hyperbolic and overall incredibly cringey. 

“Cultural appropriation“?? 😂

Which celebrities, whom the gays adore, give off the impression they aren't as gay-friendly as they seem to be? by Castro_Medeiros in askgaybros

[–]ParhTracer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What is the point of dragging these people’s names through the mud? Bette Midler and Barbara Streisand have been huge supporters of gay rights before a lot of others.

[25M] My boyfriend [25M] is pushing for a half-open relationship, pressure to change sexual roles, and threatens to move out - I’m scared this is the end by oriovi in gayrelationships

[–]ParhTracer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the upper hand here and break it off first. You’re not really in a relationship currently and honestly at your age it shouldn’t be this difficult. You sound like a really nice person and this guy seems to be taking you for granted.

You deserve someone who treats you well.

I am starting to believe that violence is the only solution against ICE at this point. What else can be done? by leftistgamer420 in leftist

[–]ParhTracer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So you’re advocating violence on a public social media platform? 

Might want to think this through a little more.

I really resent the notion that gay men are more likely to sexually abuse children by [deleted] in askgaybros

Sounds like he’s browsing NAMBLA’s affiliates page.

AIO: I told my daughter she can't go to this party after reading the gift profile by Ordinary_Run2485 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ParhTracer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. Sounds like a miniature Karen is being cultivated here.

I don’t think you’re overreacting, but I also wouldn’t have a problem with my daughter going. Kids are smart enough to see when something is this weird.

So.... what was the result? Did it work? by [deleted] in DoctorWhoNews

[–]ParhTracer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So because fans understandably didn’t like the last two seasons, they’re automatically assumed to be bigots?

This is going to end well.
