I would say no, they shouldn't be reprimanded, but you're free to think their opinion is wrong. I would say the same if someone said an LGBT person's opinion on straight LIs is less valid. It's a personal opinion, you can disgagree/refute, but it shouldn't be shut down full stop. I'm in favor of pretty lax moderation, though. Like I said, I don't think either side has ever broken what I'd think deserves moderator intervention in this thread. That's more or less the core principle we've tried to go by here. Unless it's some really heinous shit defined to the best of our ability in the Rules and Expectations, people are free to say their piece, and take or leave the pieces of others. ALOT of those posts are tongue in cheek, it's fuckin' salt. Ah but therein lies the issue. Your tongue in cheek salt post here is the shitpost of the politics thread, the random troll post of the MP board, or the more general form of "just joshin/kiddin/clownin around. Never serious, never meant as a true negative, just for lulz. So how to judge what's serious and what's not? Make a blanket statement that one side is always kidding and one side is always serious? Is that fair? Or rather, take it case by case, determine context and do your best to sort out the lulz from the real crazies? This is where first hand perception becomes important. There's a lot than can be missed when you're in different shoes.

I wasn't posting in the romance thread then, but I understand you think I am responsible for all the sins of my people. Again, I don't care if you were angry. I think I explained that pretty clearly in the post you just replied to. Actually I love your avatar and that altered Jaal quote. Thank you. Enjoying grumpy klee kais is at least meeting a baseline for me, so maybe there's hope yet.

Thank the Maker. We need our forum Dad. If Mom (Nat) would come back, we'd be all set. [edit] I have to throw sandalisthemaker in there too as Dad #2. After seeing sandal's pics, I'd be happy to be forum daddies with him! And, yes, Nat is greatly missed. The question remains... Who's the Gil in this relationship?

Well since I now know what really happened all those months ago and I don't have to protect anyone anymore, since I was lied to, I want to offer a sincere apology from the bottom of my heart to all of you guys. All of you. Here and in the Jaal thread. I learned a lot from this chat and though it'll take time to prove my words, I will do my best to show you I do support you, and you are all welcome in the Jaal thread if you want to post there. I'll make sure of it. I really appreciate the apology and that you see things this way, I hope this means we can all be more amicable in the future.

I believe the argument (concerning @lc and other posters) has made its circle. Why not end it here as a tentative truce (this includes R & J Thread as a whole in regards to each other) and let the actions of both speak for themselves from here on out? Not saying forgive and forget, I'm saying truce. :poop: has flown now its time to see if it can stay on the ground and out of people's hands. *Edit: Lol got 'd

Heterophobic is not a thing, to entertain it as a thing is stupid, ALOT of those posts are tongue in cheek, it's fuckin' salt. I'm sure you guys are doing your best, some don't intend to come off biased but, you have serious blinders on when it comes to the LGBT community here. Really don't think you can get where alot of our complaints are coming from unless you have actually experienced it. I've seen a decent amount of straight up serious anti-straight comments from people(talking in general, not specifically this forum) so while I think it's 100% true fact to say that it certainly is a far smaller beast than anti-LGBT I think it's silly to suggest that it merely doesn't exist. Nobody can fully understand another's experiences. You can't understand mine and I can't understand yours. but using that argument doesn't add to a discussion about the subject at hand so we can reach a mutual agreement.

Cos I'm pretty familiar with the shtick of this community, can see it a mile off. Yay for different life experiences, yay for a different point of view. Diversity is a good thing.

I feel the same way about heterophobia as I do about Blue Lives Matter. How strange it didn't pop up as a thing until the majority starts feeling threatened by a minority.
I don't deny there's some people that probably are straight hating but trying to put that on the same level of a systematic and highly pervasive system that has killed scores more people and negatively effected lives over centuries?
*laughs hysterically*
I'm sorry I can't take that shit seriously. It's a special level of deluded to even attempt a comparison.

This is where first hand perception becomes important. There's a lot than can be missed when you're in different shoes. Ok but whose? The author, who determines intent? Or his audience on which those words make an impression? Obviously things can rub people the wrong way. So which is more important, intent or impression? By both measures, a single group can't claim sole sovereignty on a free pass or automatic condemnation. If intent matters, than neither the straight nor gay joker should be penalized for their antics if done in jest. And if impression is more important, both groups can be hurt by errant words. I think we need to find the balance along both spectrums.

Must be a terrible burden, to be in a majority. And to be discriminated against on the internet too.

Its a good thing literally no one here has done that, then. The term itself suggests it tho. So I'd really suggest not using it because it's an awful term to use. Thus my whole comment about not co-opting terms. It's like reverse racism. It just doesn't work as a term because it's not equivalent.
