He Said: The question I will pro-pound to you, and I have a good answer, “Why because some people have various sex tendencies, and they should be treated with extra care?”
Do the people that like the Missionary position get extra laws for their particular “Horizontal Option?” This question is one I ask out of a lack of knowledge/ignorance. Why is it Lesbian dress standard is to have a “bobbed” hair cut? That applies for the flashy Gay men as well. No one really cares how you like to have Sex or eat your eggs in the morning? Why is it necessary to broadcast by your apparel and hair style that you’re gay?
How does that compare to being enslaved from your homeland Africa and the multitude of injustice Blacks people have endured? There was a Constitutional period where Blacks were recognized as only ⅘ of a human. Can you help educate our readers on the balance of this formula? At any point a White L.G.B.T.Q. can merge back into society. Not me; I will be Black till I meet Jesus.
She said: No, no, no! Right off the bat your question/premise is flawed. You miss the whole point of gay rights, which has nothing to do with expecting preferential treatment. It has to do with being treated as a human being.
Picture civil rights as a continuum or a scale, where those to the left of zero are treated like dirt and those to the right of zero are respected. Traditionally, rich White men would peg the scale on the right side. Females, people of color, non-Christians, and anyone else not in the mainstream would fall on the left side. Can you see it?
If our society was truly just and humane, we’d ALL touch down on zero. Nobody would be stigmatized as worse than the next person, or glorified as being better. Gays are not looking for special treatment, just neutrality. The Zero position would be a step up for us.
