Men love to be like “iF mEN diDN’t ExiST, Who’S gOINg to pRoTect YoU?”

Why men need to wear skirts

I will say this about everyone calling people that don't like gay people or say something negative about them homophobic. YOU'RE USING THAT WORD SO WRONG IT ISN'T EVEN FUNNY. Not liking something doesn't warrant the use of the word. I don't like spiders, at all. That doesn't make me an arachnaphobe. A phobia is an IRRATIONAL FEAR of something, not disliking it, and the fact that everyone misuses the word so frequently that people just take it to mean hating something drives me nuts. If someone doesn't like homosexuals, or even if they hate homosexuals that does not make them a homophobe. If they're irrationally afraid of homosexuals and/or their culture then by all means they would then be homophobic. But you aren't homophobic because you don't like it. Further more, you can't just demand someone not think that way. You wouldn't like it if someone told you that you had to change your opinion on something, because you're entitled to that opinion even if a lot of people think that your opinion is wrong. Some people are going to spend their entire life hating something and nothing you say or do will change that. Is it wrong of us to treat anyone (male, female, gay, straight, trans, pan, black, white, hispanic, any of that) worse than anyone else, I absolutely think so. But that's my opinion on it. At the same time, the same people I've seen supporting equality will at the same time be talking down on people's religions or acting like all straight white people (especially ones that have a religion and especially Christians) are these terrible people and that isn't any more fair than saying that all black people are (insert typical comment here) or gays are (insert nasty comment here). You can't say you support any sort of equality unless you're supporting it for anyone. Yes there are a lot of hypocrites in Christian religions, but those are the ones the media wants you to focus on, they don't want to show you the ones that use their own money and time to go to places that desperately need help and do it for no reason other than that is what the Bible told them to do (go out and help people). You see all the (white) cops that shoot innocent people but you don't see the ones that are doing their best to help people. They'll show black people robbing a store or committing crimes but they won't show you the ones bettering their communities. They'll have you think that all Muslims are terrible people and they're all terrorists but they bypass the fact that these terrorist are extremists who happen to be Muslim. Basically what I'm getting at is that you're making yourself look like a hypocrite when you're saying how oppressed and mistreated all these groups are, but at the same time generalizing anyone straight and white (and especially Christian) as terrible people. There is nothing wrong with having your Christian religion. There is nothing wrong with being a straight white person (because they've got issues too). There is nothing more wrong with that (and people have no right to demonize them) than there is if you're black or you're gay or transgender or whatever you identify you as. People need to stop taking things out of context and acting like people are being bigots because even if that is how that person is, they're entitled to their opinion even if you disagree with it. We all need to start treating each other as human beings and treat ourselves that way too.
