Who told you we don’t ? It’s normal to worry about what your offspring will become… when you love and care for your child more than for your ego of course.
What if they want to be a lady? The world’s richest cunt already went off the deep end over that one.
As someone who was almost kidnapped by a woam at the age of 7 I am getting a bit tired if people acting like this sort of shit is only carried out by men.
I think people do fear those things…
Yeah, and more than that, I think that people just don’t bring it up much because they all feel there has to be such a low chance that their little angel and bundle of joy could possibly turn out so poorly
Oh no, my son’s gay! Why, oh why, couldn’t he have been a child molester instead?
Yeah, this meme is completely idiotic, lol.
All I know is that a lot of families will protect their rapist son and kick their gay kid out of the house.
A lot yes. Most? I find hard to believe.
The meme is not really a falsifiable statement and it doesn’t need to be.
Sure it is. Its obvious what its implying even if its left with some plausible deniability.
I hate this weak minded shit where people don’t just say what they mean for fear of criticism, and so they just leave a convenient motte to retreat behind.
Do you expect every meme to be backed up with demographic data? Or are you just prickly that someone suggested that homophobia exists and you need to argue about something?
Motte and Bailey. Lol. Get a grip.
Do you expect every meme to be backed up with demographic data?
If we just go hog wild with “its just a meme” we end up with the far right. Thats a huge part of how they latched onto the social common ground for white men online.
“It’s just a meme!” for generalizing large groups of people is shitty, particularly when it seems many believe the implied demographic level of popularity of said meme.
Your “Lol. Get a grip.” in response to this is anti thought.
I’m absolutely certain more people fear their kids being those things over homosexual.
so this meme is literally asking for more people to be homophobic
garbage meme
I think they may be more horrified finding out their children become those things, but I don’t think they actively fear that possibility in advance. Contrast with the gay scenario where a fair number of parents actively fear that possibility well in advance of any signs that might even be a thing.
Even if it were backwards the post would be asking for people to care less about the first stuff, since you’re saying they don’t care that much about having gay sons. The level of homophobia does not change and the post is wouldn’t be asking for that in any valid interpretation.
Reading comprehension isn’t that hard, dude.
This post is turning into an impromptu reading comprehension test for a lot of people it seems
I feared them being an asshole. I dont want to live with an asshole for ~20 years
They would. Without religion being fed from birth.
I’m seeing a pretty grim trend in the metal community, where old opponents of organized religion suddenly have become religious.
When the singer of WASP(we are satans people) and Iced earth (vocal opponent of Christianity and the cruelty of religious leaders) all of a sudden are born again christians, i start to get worried. The second also got arrested during 6th jan…
Its because Christianity is the religion of white supremacy now, clearer than day, and thats what these people are.
Don’t single out one of them. By that logic, islam is the religion of Arab supremacy.
There is definitely stronger links between religion and white supremacy in the us. But us is not even half of the Christians in the world. Most of which are black och hispanic.
This isn’t about singling anyone out. islam isnt relevant to this conversation about fascist white supremacist christians overtaking the us government.
Yes, but thats not “christianity”. Do you see what i mean?
And i mean that in no way to defend Christianity, i detest those institutions of backward thinking. All of them. Equally.
I really well and truly do not care for no true scottsman arguments. Some christians are horrible people. They’re still christian even if they’re hypocrites, because every religious person inherently is because no one could possibly follow every single one of their rules, and in fact in many instances the rules themselves demand people pick and choose.
But you where completely fine in making that argument when it came to islam. Why is that? Other than the likely fact that you come the US and have a different relationship with that religion.
I think you missed the point of my post. I’m talking about people that absolutely are not racist, they are some of the few in society that stood up to religious norms in a time when they where ostrasized for it. They where simply against religion and fought against it. I want them to fight the powers that be again.
Kind of like some of the Iranian guys that fled here after being arrested for wearing metal shirts in Teheran. They still have warrants out for 14 year old sentences. But they still play and they are on the right side of things.
But you where completely fine in making that argument when it came to islam. Why is that?
This just literally makes no sense. You are so stuck with the initial irrelevant strawman you made that you’ve latched on to believing Im making some random argument that hasn’t been made and continues to be irrelevant because we are currently talking about the white supremacy takeover in the US, where christianity is the religion they’ve picked.
The groups you mentioned, the point of my post, most likely changed to christianity as they want to align with what white supremacy has choosen as the white supremacy religion.
Your example with arab supremacy makes no sense, because there is no arab supremacy in the US making islam their religion.
Its whataboutism where there isnt even the subject of the whatabout.

If they arent racist, why the switch to religion? I truly don’t get what you’re trying to get at.
I don’t think I know a single person, male or female, who’d rather their son be a pedophile or a rapist instead of gay…
You can’t imagine a person who would excuse getting someone so drunk they no longer refuse sex as “boys will be boys” behavior or similar nonsense, but would express actual disapproval of their child entering a same-sex relationship? It doesn’t just mean “convicted of assaulting a young white woman at gunpoint”.
Yes, I can imagine it. I’m talking about reality, not my imagination.
So, congrats on having good taste in friends, I guess? What was your point?
What is your point? I never said anything about friends. I made a simple assertion that, for some reason, seemed to bother you.
If you are limiting your statement to people you personally know, then it’s not responding to the statement in the image, so why would we assume that was your intended interpretation? If you are stating that you can imagine a person like I described exists, but no real person could possibly match that description, you are talking nonsense. If you are merely stating your personal ignorance of other people, then congratulations, weird flex but educate yourself.
Since you don’t know, it would be bothersome to normal people if someone says something about the world (as they interpret that statement, as mentioned) that is untrue, or if they perceive someone to be making efforts to detract from good-faith conversation. Perhaps that alleviates your uncertainty about the reason.
Dude, I’m not biting. I said my piece, interpret it however you want.
There are tens of millions of people in the states making excuses for rapists and creeps while demanding the rights be stripped from gay people.
The biggest probably is that they don’t consider half of those things to be real problems and will do as much mental gymnastics as possible to get away from that. A adult fucks a minor but marries them and suddenly it’s “love” and ok by them and they don’t ever need to think any harder about it. They can rage against pedophilia to their hearts content because to them those things are not the same but if a dude dresses better than shit and likes to draw they’ll bust out “GAY” as an insult.
I don’t live in “the states”.
Neither do I, but I do have the barest ability to understand that my personal experience is not everyone’s experience.
Yeah I’m also not in the States but I’m seeing an increase of people who support the folks who would likely try the same evil shit here because of stuff like “they’ll deal with the queers”.
The key difference between being gay and one of those things: Power. The ability to trample other peoples lives is the highest morality one can possess.
At least, in the eyes of horrible people.
I do not fear my son being gay in the slightest. I only want him to be happy. Also, if he happens to be gay or trans, what with the current climate in society and all the hate coming from the right… it’s when he would need me as a supportive dad the most.
There’s SO much of all of those in the Bible I imagine they feel more comfortable writing that off as a “little whoopsie” but GOOD LORD if you’re gay that’s a direct reflection on my failure as a parent, how could I ever show up to the annual pot luck dinner knowing my child made me look bad?
The monkey’s paw curls, and people fear their children being gay, because they think gay people are groomers/rapists/pedophiles.
No /s, because this is an actual basis for people hating on trans people, drag queens, and gay people
as much as
She wants an equal amount of fear between those?
that’s… certainly one way to interpret that saying. it’s more like… “the thing you currently fear? i wish you’d put that energy into what you should actually fear”
I understood the intent. I just thought it was poorly phrased (and that it potentially could have been satirical bait).
I don’t think parents should really be afraid of either. Parents have enough scaremongering aimed at them as is. “What if my kid turns out to be a pedophile?” isn’t actually a helpful thought that’s likely to encourage good parenting.
Equating the desired fear of the former to the present fear of the gay (in some people). I also infer the desired fear of gay sons should be equal to present fear of the former or, better yet, none.
We’ve got such a long way to go. Just breaking even would be a huge improvement.
It’s a start.
Full disclosure: I totally worried about that.
Surely you cannot be this stupid.
No. This much stupid requires effort.
So quit it.
How much effort did you put into convincing yourself that I was saying that in earnest?
We all suffer together.
Shit, I’m just worrying they’ll be fucking idiots. I’ll be a happy dad if they’re just good dudes, you know?
Obligatory Let’s Generalize About Men because it’s a bop.
Thanks for introducing me to this song lmao, it slaps!
The whole series is great if you’re into musicals about being an insecure middle aged millennial.
I’ll have to watch it lol, thanks!
Thing is, its easy to teach your kid not to do those things, but you cant teach them not to be gay. No reason to be afraid of it, but its definitely understandable that you would have more concerns over things that are beyond your control than things that are.
Its easy to teach them to not rape or abuse but you can’t “teach” them to not be attracted to anyone or thing, unfortunately, including children…
(or feet)
Hmm yeah, i guess fair. You can certainly teach them not to act on those impulses though.
including children…
(or feet)
As if these were equivalent.
Second one was to lighten the mood of my post.
