A question for straights;

Stella,
Thank you for a thought provoking and insightful thread - as usual. It lacks the incendiary verbal fireworks to bring out the neocons but it is a good question and deserves an honest answer:
If it weren't for an act of unselfish heroism on the part of a gay member of my company, I would not be here today. This individual personally saved about forty of us who'd gotten trapped in a crossfire and if not for his selfless, irrational, and crazy stunt, not one of those forty would have lived to thank him for what any of us would have gladly done for the others.
We knew he was 'queer' but that was his business, not ours. He was a person I could trust and I know that he trusted me. Nuff said.
 
Kentucky, dude. Lemme play you a violin.

I've tried a couple of approaches to an answer here, but-- naw. That is just chock full of self-pity and White Man's Pain and you should be embarrassed.

Try reading my comment as if you were not the center of the universe.

WTF are you talking about now? You threw out a couple of stats, but have spent the vast amount of your time telling me how bigoted I am. By your request, I've not asked you for a previous example of my bigotry. You did say that joining never appealed to you, and that was all the information I was looking for. Yet you keep pressing because you just know that there's some kind of trap. You and SR have convinced yourselves that you know more about me and my single question than I know.

It was an amazingly simple question: Did the policy keep you from joining?

The paranoid neurotic side of the board is off on a witch hunt because there MUST be something more.

Again, this is supposed to be a place full of open minded people, full of acceptance. Current events seem to dictate that it's just the opposite. If you're not a voted in part of the crowd, you're an evil person with subversive agendas. You've truly become everything you've always claimed to hate. Sorry if that doesn't sit well with you, but that's what it is now.

If you don't like that, maybe you should re-examine your approach to people that aren't your enemy asking a simple question.

Your argument that you reacted like that because other people have acted that way carries no weight at all. That makes you no different than the people that persecute all Muslims because of the actions of the terrorists.
 
Seems to me that you're the one making a big deal out of this. This is all about playing the dying swan, right? :rolleyes:

To me, what you asked--and then followed up with, categorized you. But it's no big deal--other than methinks you protest too much.

I'm finding it amusing to be matched with Cloudy one day and Stella the next. What's tomorrow? Scouries (No, Michchick has already done that). Maybe Freddie or Safe-bet. I can't wait for it. :D

Witches are on the endangered species list here. White men are still legal.

Don't ever make a mention of Andy Jackson or the roof will fall in. Ask me how I know? :eek:
 
The Straight man's pain.

It's a terrible pain.

Nobody knows how much the Straight Man hurts. No person of color, no gay or lesbian, can match the hurtness of the poor Straight man.

We must all bow down to the superpower of the Straight butthurt. It's the ruler of the universe!

(you can change "straight" to "white" when necessary-- in fact, you can change "man" to "woman" quite often as well)
 
And this exercise of starting a second thread to mock the first helps reduce the political clutter on the board -- how?

Shouldn't someone be derailing the threads with porn by now?

Sorry, but it needed to be said.
I am not the supreme commander in charge of spamming political threads. You can be the one in charge of spamming for a while. I'm tired.
 
*shrug* Alrighty then. Y'all have fun.

To be fair, these two companion threads aren't political threads--they're lifestyle threads. And it's very much about what sexual preferences are going to be respected on Literotica--and how much gay bashing one needs to put up with here on a Web site supposedly being broadly tolerant.
 
Now that Congress has voted to...

Sounds like politics to me. *shrug*

And now we're up to two mocking threads.

*shrug II* I know where the ignore button is if it gets any more out of hand.

Bring on the porn! Fill up the threads!

But aside from that, "now that congress Has voted" is when the politics are over. or should be, anyway. Now we can figure out how to live with the after effects of the politics, and that's life and lifestyle stuff.

Just a technical note:

Bitching, pissing and moaning about your pain, burden or other various stresses of life is an automatic deduction of man points.

Whining about unfair advantages given to others, at your expense is cause for immediate emasculation and demotion from man to crybaby.

Well sniveled!
 
Now that the DADT act that prevented you from "coming out of the closet" and admitting that you are attracted to members of the opposite sex has been repealed; How many of you are thinking about enlisting?

How many straights would have enlisted if they had been allowed to be "out" about their straightness?

Don't you worry that you might get straightbashed anyway by some heterophobic gorgeous man?

Why did you choose to be straight, anyway?

Thank you for your answers. I'm too lazy to do my own research.
Can't gays just go to Canada like everyone else did during the draft? :p

Bitching and moaning in the military is a way of life. Right up there with hurry up and wait. :rolleyes:

Not all fled. Some were crazy and some didn't care for the snow and cold of Canada.

<<<<< One of the crazy ones. (I have the certificate the Marine Corp. gave me to prove it on the wall over my desk.) Also the beaches were warm and surfing good during the typhoons. (Further proof of crazy)
