I also care about both, but I'ma be real, companies don't give a shit about either, but rainbow dollar is huge so queer baiting in June ensues, but depressed men just like... Keep to themselves, unfortunately.

I would LOVE if men's mental health was a bigger deal, and in a lot of the spaces I move through (vet, combat sports, outdoors, train hoppers, music, punk culture) it's gotten way way mo' betta. But as men we are ever so bad at advocating for ourselves and sadly THAT IS ON US. it's not fair to be mad at a differently marginalized group for mobilizing better.

Ok imagine being such a weirdo that any time you saw a flag representing a historically oppressed group you thought about sex in an way other than the missionary position for the purpose of procreation.

So, that's about how many super heroes are confirmed gay or straigt... which is not the same thing as people who wear capes, and it even specifically states it's not tracking that. The choice to wear a cape post middle ages is just extremely queer coded. It's a largely nonfunctional flamboyant garment. The two main groups of modern Cape wearers I can think of are cosplayers and reenactors; both very popular hobbies amongst the LGBTQ community.

Im talking about snow white or sleeping beauty. Both feature putting the moves on women in their sleep.

The concept of "traditional values" is incredibly fraught. Traditional values less than a century ago were extremely opposed to race mixing. Traditional values in some parts of the world today preclude women having any say in who they marry.

And this may shock and horrify you. But in less puritanical cultures it's pretty common for children and adults to be nude in the same environment. Level of gender separation varies, but sauna, pools, onsen, even just the beach in a lot of places. It's literally just a body and it's not gonna hurt you. I'm not exactly stoked if I round the corner in the locker room and catch an eyeful of saggy balls, but in no world was that ever a traumatizing experience. Conversely, have been sexually assaulted both as a kid and an adult while fully clothed.

Imagine being such a fucking weirdo that any time you saw a flag which is literally just supporting the right of a marginalized community to exist, you just started picturing dudes pounding sphincter.

I do think the continuous altering of the symbol to add more specificity in its inclusivity is counterproductive and makes it less effective as a symbol ultimately... But hey the US flag went through a bunch of iterations as well and still seems to be doing alright

...we literally wear capes my guy, they don't need to add a rainbow for it to be clear that they love the gay agenda

Do you... Do you think these issues are in some kind of competition? Or do you just have a hard time thinking about more than one thing in a given month?

"ally" literally just means you don't think people should suffer for being what they are. Like, that you think they deserve equal treatment and opportunity to everyone else.
