cough cough chick Fil a

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

Wait, did Chick-Fil-A actually ban gay customers or do they just support anti-LGBT groups

They donated to anti LGBT groups, using funds they got from selling food. It’s kinda wrong because hundreds of LGBT people have bought food from there, and inadvertently supported groups that hate them.

I'm not actually sure how I feel about this one. As a gay person I would be very miffed if someone refused me service, but I see the argument for the other side.

Gah! I'm just gonna state my opinion and then just stalk. I think you should have the right to refuse service, but not simply because that person isn't like you. You should have a reason like, I don't know, THEY'RE RUDE

A business has the right to choose to only serve black people with freckles if they so choose. Their place, their rules. The gov shouldn’t be able to force them to do what they don’t want to do.

It might be morally and ethically wrong to refuse service to people based on looks/otherwise, but it’s not right for the law to stop them

Well said.

okay, another debate topic if y’all are bored: is asexuality part of LGBTQ?

I had this thing which was “It’s just about that you don’t want it, not that it’s different.” In case it wasn’t clear I’m now not 100% certain anymore when I look from the other side.

to be honest, i’ve always thought that the asexual/aromantic community like, deserved their own space. Like they’re all totally valid, but I feel like cramming it into LGBTQ is unnecessary. Something like AVEN, but less bad.

Like maybe a different scale entirely about how ace you are.

AbbyAlways

Ah, I say they should be a part of LGBT+, because they aren't heteroromantic and heterosexual. Just me though.

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

I don't really think it matters, if they want to consider themselves part of it or an entirely different thing that's up to them.

I don't think things should be divided based on sexuality. Creating all these groups is just creating more unrest.

Mhm. I've heard people say that "They aren't in the community unless they're gender-queer." and I'm just like… Boi.

But what if you’re Asexual and heterosexual?

group
@Moxie group

Do you mean asexual and heteroromantic? As in doesn't experience sexual feelings but experiences sexual feelings towards the opposite gender? Because asexual and heterosexual is an oxymoron.

I guess you’re right.

Alright guys give me your thoughts on:

Furries
Otherkins
Trans-species

And other odd forms of people that are popping up out of the snow like daisies lately.

Trans-species

I think furries, and even otherkins are pretty fine, tbh. They’re just doing their Hong and having fun, even if it is a little odd. Trans-species is where I draw the line though, because it can reflect badly on actual trans peopel

group
@Moxie group

Yeah, I agree, it makes the LGBTQ+ community look like a joke, and then cishet people assume every trans person is like that.

I'm intrigued by the fact that most people don't draw similarities between Otherkins and those with DID or MPD because they are really similar from what it sounds like.

(Or maybe they do in psychology I havent researched it yet.)

You’re right, It kinda does, with the phantom limbs and the like.

^^^ Exactly.
If anyone knows a lot about this I'd love to hear it, because to most people these 'labels' actually sound like they may be mental disorders and not a trait like someone's sexuality would be.

group
@Mojack group

I’ve never heard of trans-species so I don’t have a good enough opinion about it to say anything.

Most furries I’d say I’m fine with. I’m in the community myself, after all (wouldn’t say directly involved in it considering all the drama in it that happened a few months back.)

Otherkins.. also unsure about them. They interest me, I should say. I don’t really want to say this, but even then, the idea of otherkin is kinda weird.

^^^ Exactly.

Well I would say that all trans stuff is a mental disorder.

Many would disagree.
