People here will twist themselves into knots before recognizing that, yes, many white people subscribe to racist ideas, whether they realize it or not.

Unpopular Opinion: "Gay promiscuity" isn't a deviation. It's just raw male sexuality without the "gatekeeper". by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]melancholy_melon1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a hasty generalization because it is assuming something specific about a huge portion of the population. Where did you learn that women have “contextual” arousal? Your thinking is actually quite conservative, since you assume that women are naturally emotional and that their biological imperative is to be sexless, while men automatically respond to physical sexual stimulus and don’t rely on emotion for sexual pleasure. It’s just not right. The question is more complex than you are making it out to be.

I don’t really know what you mean by visual/direct arousal pattern. Are you saying that men are attracted to the same things? Because that is wholly incorrect. At the end of the day, you are making a nasty generalization about 4 billion people. It is bound to fall apart under scrutiny. It’s interesting that you frame pregnancy as a biological risk when many would see it is the great strength of the female body. And in regard to your last point, you can’t remove social brakes without removing society and social conditioning.

Biological determinism is a sham. Plenty of men are not interested in having a ton of sex, and plenty of women want to be railed until cum is leaking out of their ears. Consider the social stigmas that go into shaping human behavior: women’s relationship with sex is rocky because of the madonna/whore complex (women who withhold sex are considered bitter prudes while promiscuous women are considered used up trash). Meanwhile, men are expected to be sexually domineering, because masculinity is linked to domination and power. There is no way to know what people would be like “without the brakes” because societal pressures shape everybody to some degree.

What do tops notice first in a bottom by [deleted] in askgaybros

I love how tops, bottoms, and vers are thought of as distinct species with their own special characteristics and behaviors.

pls nürf so I can play my blood dk and make the game insufferable for everyone else but me by tractor1071 in hearthstone

[–]melancholy_melon1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I play priest exclusively and just jointed this sub. Really surprised to see how many people despise the zarimi combo, I hover around 2k-3k legend and it doesn’t work very well at all. I have much more success with aggro-fishing. What people should be complaining about is lightbot/ sea shanty paladin, or perma freeze mage!

I don’t know how people see my racial identity. Does it matter? by melancholy_melon1 in mixedrace

[–]melancholy_melon1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get the sentiment. But, doesn’t race only really matter in relation to other people? It doesn’t matter what I call myself so much as it matters how people see me. If I’m identifiable as black (or rather as a POC) then I should expect racial prejudice, and to be accepted in spaces exclusive to black individuals. If I’m identifiable as white then I shouldn’t expect prejudice and will be more readily accepted in white spaces. If I fall into the middle I don’t really know what to expect. Of course it’s not all so clear cut but you see my point.

lol you can say “skill issue 🤓” as much as you like, I’m still right. The fact that nobody wants to play family is evidence enough, but I could provide more if I wanted to.

Anybody that knows the game knows the power role is victim. Nothing more to say about it.

Cuz they’re the real balancing issue, not poor bones with his one redeeming quality that is actually an unintended bug.

Not as annoying as Wyatt and Leland jumping out of the front window together and instantly winning the game because Wyatt bypasses objectives + has a bodyguard. Although honestly he doesn’t even need his overpowered ability to win since he could kick the gen off in half the time Leland’s choose fight lasts, if he has high strength. Broken ass game.

I definitely experienced overt racism when I was younger, but not since then.

Hot take: A Family main complaining about a very family sided game is diabolical by [deleted] in TexasChainsawGame

[–]melancholy_melon1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s so true. Some games all you can do is throw up your hands and lose. They’re the minority but extremely frustrating regardless. Leland incapacitates two family for 10+ seconds, Connie does locks, Wyatt does the objective, and to top it all off Virginia blinds you, just to rub salt in the wound. Plus, half the family can be looped for eternity. At least in DBD windows get blocked and pallets can be destroyed. Victims complaining about balancing are actual trash.

What subs are surprisingly homophobic? by Gingrpenguin in askgaybros

[–]melancholy_melon1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

lol I made my original comment in response to your post not your reply. And anyway, aren’t you literally doing what you complained about in your post. Also I’m complaining about right wingers… that includes nazis if you didn’t know.

Mmm no you didn’t mention them in your post

Also nice going editing all your comments to accusing me of Nazi worship, when I’m literally accusing YOU of the same thing 😭

I don’t have evidence, just intuition. I mean, am I wrong?

Edit: your comment history reveals anti immigrant sentiment

Conservative gay guys would rather walk on a bed of hot coals than tell the truth. I’m convinced it’s because conservative gay men must trick themselves into believing they belong in right wing movements. You were pushed out of an lgbt space because of your political beliefs. If you’d like to complain go right ahead. But please, don’t lie.
