I created a huge stink here...on accident!!

Excuse me for having a differenence of oppinion.
And NO I'm not anti-gay..I have gay friends and what not that I love and treat just like everyone else. No reason that I should treat them differently because of their sexuality.

The whole "Hate the sin, love the sinner thing." 

Apperently I'm being a bigot.. That I have an intolerence to anyone that has a different opinion than what I think. So not true.


Maybe I'll vent later..but I wanted you guys to see this. Made me laugh..then get really annoyed.

It's because it sounds homophobic on a community where there may be people who are gay men or lesbian women, that's why.

I never understood the term homophobe. It's almost like it wants to intimidate you. Like "If you don't agree with us, you're afraid of something" you know?
14th-Sep-2008 06:30 pm (UTC)
Yes. I got called that too..
And then someone was like: "being homophobic doesn't mean being afraid of it."
Uh..last time I checked -phobic meant you were AFRAID of it..FEAR OF=phobic.

Well, that's the definition of homophobe. "The fear or hate of a homosexual person".

"Oh yeh, Lindsay's dating a girl so its ok!"....no..its not ok.. Lohan is a horrible role model.

That statement comes off as homophobic, which is why people are attacking. This was said in an open community, & while their attacking is wrong as well, what is being said surely has to be watched.

In my own opinion, that's not the reason why Lindsey is a bad role model. Whether a person dates someone of the same gender or not it no one's concern but their own, & it doesn't make them a bad person. Saying she's a bad role model because she's dating a girl is, yes, a homophobic remark, sorry to say. It's a lesson, you have to watch what you say anywhere.

Yes. I did learn a lesson. I will have to watch what I say.
I should have..not said anything or said it better..

If it's locked on your own journal, it's ok to write your opinions, just truth of the matter is, on public communities, opinions don't matter, because I had to deal with that as well when I stated my own opinion as well. Also, it's because it comes off as offensive, as if their were people who actually were homosexual, they may have felt deeply offended >> So yeah, best keep it on your own lj.

OH LAWL. THIS IS SO HYPOCRITICAL.

They're saying you're a bigot while they harass you and make a billion prejudices about you because you don't agree with them. It's the "agree with me or you're a jerk" syndrome. XD
14th-Sep-2008 06:28 pm (UTC)
Yes!! Exactly!
And they don't think that they're being biggots.

Of course, this is what happens when you hang out at a celebrity gossip comm in the first place. No offense, but IMHO, those places are garbage.
14th-Sep-2008 06:32 pm (UTC)
Ahh. Yeh...
I only went there cause there was something about HP.
Then some of the posts were interesting so I decided to stick around.

That was actually my first post there..

The comment you made sounds very bigoted, and they're not just being oversensitive.

I am unfriending you, because I'm not sure why you friended me in the first place - almost every one of my posts contains *gasp* yaoi. Please unfriend me as well.
14th-Sep-2008 07:08 pm (UTC)
i hate those people.

*pops up out of nowhere*

Lindsay is a bad role model all the way around, sexual orientation not applied. I think I got what you were trying to say but yeah, people are oversensitive. But keep in mind that this is the internet, queen of all things 'srs muthafuckin bns'

It's really sad that people got so mad at you over that. You were just expressing your opinion, but as my mother would say "You have to know who you're dealing with."

Folks are complete and utter dumbasses. I almost got ripped a new one over some YouTube comment once (which wasn't even that important).

Well anyway, I didn't know you "hated" Yaoi. (o_o) I personally love Yaoi, but everyone has their own tastes.

I don't think a person has to fully support homosexuals, but they can be respectful of who those people are. That's always been my view. *shrug*

I think you handled the whole situation well. I would have gone off on someone a long time ago.

PS> PHOBIA DOES = FEAR. Hello~ *sigh*

Thank you!! For not chewing me out too. lol
Well, I can tolerate yaoi. I do like the pretty boys lol.

Your right on about supporting homosexuals. Everyone has their oppinion on the matter but it should be common curtesy to resepct them. They are humans too..

Haha. Thank you. I really wish I could have went off on them. I left..cause it was pointless to try to stand up for my point. Which..is sad..
28th-Sep-2008 08:39 am (UTC)
You're welcome! I try not to chew people out, if I can help it. XD

I absolutely hated Yaoi at first, but now I'm almost addicted. Haha~ I love pretty boys too, although now I can't stand looking at hairy American guys. ROTFLMAO~

Folks are so closed-minded these days that it's sad. The internet was supposed to open up lines of communication, but some people seem determined to close them. *shakes head*
