This is a message to everyone who is upset, angry and annoyed about things that do not directly affect them; Homophobic, trans-phobics, Kink-phobics, Xenophobes. Yes I mean you people. How does it affect your marriage if two women you don’t know get married? Religious Rhetoric you say, yet you wouldn’t stone someone for not being a virgin on their wedding? No.
Why do you care is people want to wear leather and get their ass’s spanked behind closed doors (hopefully of their sexy dungeon)? Or have their nipples pinched? Be a dog or a horse? When people are home doing what they want between two consenting adults…why do you care?
You will still be going to work, doing your own thing and having your vanilla hetero sex. Living your life the way you want to be without worry.
It doesn’t directly affect you. When two men fuck; you will still watch tv, eat on the couch or what ever the fuck it is that you do.
It’s like going to sub shop and because the person in front of you didn’t order the same thing as you; you can’t enjoy your sub.
If people living happy healthy lives keeps you up at night and makes you feel hatred. Maybe…just maybe you need to ask yourself why? If your answer is religion then you need to start living all of it; no more picking and choosing. But also you need to ask why religion gives you license to push your beliefs on everyone? If religion is not the answer maybe you should talk to someone, a friend, priest, a psychologist, doctor… to figure out why you hate. Because when it comes down to it… it sounds like you are just jealous of other peoples happiness. —Fr. Acceptance

Best Bitch Ever!!!!!!! Great post Father Acceptance 🙂
if the people in question care for and/or love each other, then what the hell. they are not asking that you think the match is okay, they are nt even asking your permission to match up.
all they are trying to do, is find a bit of happiness in this rotten fucking world.i say leyt those that choose their lives, live them, and you fucky idiots live yours, with adding more hate and bullshit.
If someone wants to be a bigot, then they should stand up on their hind legs and own it. Don’t hide behind your imaginary friend. (yes, Phil Robertson, I’m talking to you.)
If the physics of the love act make your gorge rise, then so be it. But, and this is where OP’s sub shop analogy comes into play, other peoples private preferences have absolutely nothing to do with anybody else. Consenting adults, legal boundaries, yadda yadda. I’ll repeat something I said a couple of weeks ago. I’ve yet to meet someone so in command of their own life that they had the luxury (or credibility) of sitting in judgement on someone elses.
Excellent bitch I wholeheartedly support.
One group that really pisses me off? “Men” who want to tell women what to do with their bodies … prime example: Right To Lifers. Fuck off and let women choose.
I wonder how many of these right to lifers have ever adopted an unwanted child, HaliOOPs.
They have every right to protest – the Catholics outside the VG are a pretty tame bunch, but it’s the ones who are arseholes about it are the ones who need to fuck off.
Also: great bitch. Moral of the story: mind your own damn business, bigots.
‘Intolerance is evidence of impotence.’ – Aleister Crowley
PK — I agree they have every right to protest but I maintain that “men” shouldn’t be dictating their warped sense of religious “right and wrong”. And yes, I too have wondered how many of these “upstanding” citizens have adopted a child.
…and the last line of Ivanski’s post above, bolded and underlined. Well said, my friend.
While I believe firmly that women have the right to do with their bodies as they please, I do sometimes feel like men get the raw end of the deal. They contribute 50% of the DNA towards conceiving a child, yet have 0% of the say in whether or not that child is aborted or carried to term (works both ways).
I don’t have any answers as to how to equalize this, but it’s just one of those things that can be really unfair.
Just because someone disagrees with something doesn’t mean they hate it. If someone disagrees with the gay, etc etc etc lifestyle, it doesn’t mean they hate gays, etc, etc, etc. I may disagree with one political party or another but it doesn’t mean I hate them or don’t have friends in those parties.
It seems some are trying to equate disagreement with hate.
what on earth do you mean by ‘disagree with’ tim?
do you ‘disagree with’ red hair? brown eyes? short legs? freckles? age 27? that tree over there? blue?
do you ‘disagree with’ sunlight? air? heartbeats? sky?
how do you ‘disagree with’ a natural phenomena?
As far as I’m concerned “disagreeing’ with someone’s lifestyle (which isn’t really a ‘lifestyle’ because that implies a situation is chosen, which in this case it isn’t) is the exact same as breeding hate.
I mean, it’s easy for you to ‘disagree’ with a natural phenomena (good one, Molly) when no one’s ‘disagreeing’ with your sexual preference.
Then again, most LGBTQ folks I know could give two shits who ‘agrees’ and ‘disagrees’ with their ‘lifestyle,’ so, I guess it doesn’t matter if you agree or not. *shrug*
watching dumb lefties get offended is hilarious. dumb lefties.
ASK A PHILOSOPHER
“But also you need to ask why religion gives you licence to push your beliefs on everyone. If religion is not the answer maybe you should ask a friend, priest, a psychologist, doctor … to figure out why you hate.” Fr. Acceptance
But if religion isn’t the answer, why should I ask a priest to figure out why I hate? Is there a failure of simple logic here?
In the same way, why should I ask a psychologist who will only provide empty answers to account for my irrational dysfunctional behaviour? (“You hate because of unresolved Oedipal issues.”) And why should I ask a doctor since hate is not an organic but rather a mental condition?
However, the friend might be a philosopher. He will ask you, “What is the key word in this bitch and what does it presuppose?”
You will reply, “The key word is ‘why’ and it presupposes that rational reasons can be given for one’s hating. One can therefore resolve the dilemma by either engaging the friend in reflective philosophical dialogue or by reflexively introspecting the contents of one’s own mind.”
Your friend will then ask, “But what if hate is irrational and no rational reasons can be given?”
Your will reply, “Then I will ask a psychologist.”
A pleasure as always.
Cheerio!
I think you’re being intolerant of intolerant people. This classifies you as being intolerant.
I don’t like the term ‘sexual preference’ because it implies choice. free will and all that.
if I have a sexual ‘preference’ I would choose Netflix and a pepperoni lovers pizza.
because I have no choice in the matter of who I find attractive.
as i said in another comment on the love side. being gay or whatever, is not a lifestyle, it is just life.
