  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ArchNinja64 Such a dumb term. I don't know anyone who is afraid of them even if they disagree with their lifestyle.[/quote] The term refers to both fear of -blam!-s and hate of -blam!-s.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] DarkSunnyboy1 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Dback139 I don't exhibit anger or fear so, no, I'm not homophobic. However, I do disagree with that kind of activity, simply because it is not what nature intended. It's a similar reason to why I don't drink milk: Humans are the only animals that drink milk after infancy, so in my mind, if other species aren't doing it, and it's not necessary to survive, then it's not a practical investment of my time. [/quote] That's stupid, nature didn't "intend" things. There's -blam!--blam!-ity in other species, but homophobia only exists in one.[/quote] Holy crap your coup isn't a rip off of Mister Math's now. Still it's not Batman, so it's crap. =D

[/quote]Except homosex-ual behaviour is exhibited naturally in hundreds of animal species so NOPE unnatural argument has long been invalid

[/quote] Seems rather foolish. I mean the milk bit. Just because we're the only species to do it doesn't mean you shouldn't. For example, I doubt any animal using contraception, doesn't mean we can't do it. It's also an irrelevant argument as other animals have shown gheyness. [Edited on 12.12.2012 11:31 AM PST]

  • I was, until a -blam!- man saved my life. I have learned respect not only for -blam!- people, but just people in general, no matter what -blam!- preference they prefer. It's just time to love people, not their choices.

A more general definition is: [i]1.intolerant person: somebody with strong opinions, especially on politics, religion, or ethnicity, who refuses to accept different views[/i] Which applies to nearly everyone on the Flood in some capicity or another. So as I said, if you are using the term generally I totally agree with what you said. If you are using it to single out those who don't support minorities/special rights groups, then your just twisting it.

[/quote] WAT.[/quote] I'm sorry, you are right. But I'm hetero-blam!-. I'm hetero-blam!-. I'm hetero-blam!-, so I'm hetero-blam!-. Anyway, I probably can't explain it well enough.[/quote] I've never had a homo-blam!- say anything like that. Plus due to the fact that Hetero is the social norm.

But the whole prop 8 thing was interesting. A good number of the marriages would have been just because they could get married. That means after a year or two, they would be getting a divorce. That's a lot of fast money. So, we were looking into how to insinuate my wife's firm into the community center. Its not like we wanted them to get divorces. Hell, we were rooting for them. But some people would get married when they shouldn't, and we wanted to be the ones there to help them.
