By that train of thought, are you also asking if someone should be able to lose their job because they're straight? No, neither should. Nor should either one get any type of preferential treatment. I've got a video for you Max, I'll post it soon, it's pretty insightful. It's from an ex-feminist director, and she explains how when she would read or hear something she would automatically apply spin to it in her head, thinking that people were saying and implying something they actually weren't.

[quote]It's from an ex-feminist director[/quote]lol I know exactly what video you're talking about.

  • Of course it's discrimination. Just because it's less extreme doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I bet you're one of those "you lost your sight? I lost my sight and my hearing" type of guys.

  • Again, just because it's less extreme doesn't mean it isn't discrimination. Any actual arguments?

  • [quote]Again, just because it's less extreme doesn't mean it isn't discrimination. Any actual arguments?[/quote]By "less extreme" do you mean "literally doesn't happen"? Because LGBT discrimination happens pretty regularly. You still haven't provided a single instance of a straight person being denied housing, a job, adoption, etc, because they are straight.

  • [quote]You still haven't provided a single instance of a straight person being denied housing, a job, adoption, etc, because they are straight.[/quote] Because, [b]yet again[/b], less extreme discrimination is still discrimination. Straight people are discriminated against, but you don't have to accept that if it challenges your point of view.

  • I already did, and you went on a "I HAVE MORE EXTREME EXAMPLES FROM THE OTHER SIDE" rampage. But fine, have another example - straight people being harassed because "you don't have problems, you're straight." Kind of what you're doing here, actually.

  • [quote]I already did[/quote]No you didn't. None of your posts contain a link to any instance of discrimination against someone for being straight.

  • [quote]Your argument skills have really taken a hit.[/quote]You're the one claiming that straight people are discriminated against for their sexual orientation, yet you can't or won't substantiate your own argument.

  • I have, and you refused to accept my attempts. Why should I bother any further? Give me a good answer to that question, or enjoy the last word.

  • [quote]I have, and you refused to accept my attempts.[/quote]As I said earlier, none of your posts contain any links to such instances of discrimination. You have yet to provide any proof of your claims.
