[QUOTE=MasterFen006;45826003]I didn't think lisping was even a feminine trait at all.[/QUOTE]
come on, it sounds very dainty and feminine
[QUOTE=nagachief;45824630]Shit like this is why I don't think I'll ever come out. This is what I'm always terrified about happening. And being in Texas (small town no less), I've come to find that being gay is not exactly a safe thing from what I've witnessed.
I think when I get the chance I'm going to get the hell out of this state (or maybe move to Austin).[/QUOTE]
Austin is awes-..... I mean, it's terrible. Don't come here.
After she said that he needed to move out and cut ties with them for good, i would've just went completely silent and started packing my things. No sense continuing to argue with those people, leads to nothing but escalation. You can't change their minds about anything, even if you wave absolute truth in front of their faces. Also i'd file charges, at that point they don't give 1/10th of a shit about you, so why try to protect them from an assault charge?
as a christian myself, this whole video made me sad, jesus christ the guy's parents are such horrible people. thank god im not part of an over-religious family
[QUOTE=BananaChops;45823173]Yes because I will obviously get banned since this place is so pro faggot. You can't disagree without being branded as a troll and getting banned.
As I said, it's fine if they fuck each other in private. It's not fine if they act like faggots, just listen to his voice. It's not fine to do it in public, I don't go to a park to see two faggots kissing. And it's certainly not fine to do what he did to his family.[/QUOTE]
Guys I know he's banned but lets expel the hate and show him the meaning of love train!
faggots unite!

[QUOTE=Covalent;45824193]The one thing I don't understand, is that homosexual males seem to take up a lisp of some sort, that doesn't sound natural at all and almost becomes forced. He seemed to be doing it in the video.
Call it dumb curiosity, but I really ponder, why does that happen? Is it forced? Is it their natural voice?
As for the video, I can believe that people would still react this way. But it's probably better than the reaction he'd get from anywhere in the middle east.[/QUOTE]
It's usually a learned trait, either consciously or subconsciously.

Also, r/atheism picked this up, has some good replies to it imo:
[quote]religion surely is not the only reason why people hate homosexuals
they're different and sometimes that is already enough
also the bible is not that bad of a book, the problem are the people who misread parts or just twist them the way they'd like them to be
the bible should not be referred as the word of god, it should be a book with some nice advice and also clearly stated that the stories are metaphors[/quote]
Which was nicely followed with
[quote]You ask someone why homosexuality is wrong, and they will either be factually wrong or appeal to religion. And it's silly to automatically call all the stories metaphors. You don't know if they are and the bible already has parables,
so you could argue that the authors intended the rest of the book be taken as fact. And even if you teach that it is all metaphors it's not going to stop people from using it to discriminate.[/quote]
[QUOTE=DMGaina;45823454]The united states are a first world country, are they?[/QUOTE]
Little bit of a generalization there, some places are backward as fuck and some places are tolerant/progressive. Hell even in the bible belt of the US, there's pockets of of progressiveness.
Dox in 3...2...
you know I don't blame the parents, I blame the dumb fuck religion they were most likely brought up in.
[QUOTE=DMGaina;45823454]The united states are a first world country, are they?[/QUOTE]
1st world country just refers to the USA and it's allies after WWII. 2nd world refers the the Soviet Union and it's allies after WWII, and 3rd world just refers to non-allied countries after WWII. It has nothing to do with anything related to economy or society or anything.
[QUOTE=Mr Nagasaki;45826961]1st world country just refers to the USA and it's allies during WWII. 2nd world refers the the Soviet Union and it's allies during WWII, and 3rd world just refers to non-allied countries during WWII.

I'm fairly sure First, Second and Third world is about the Cold War not WW2
Just wait till 4chan get ahold of this.
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;45827008]I'm fairly sure First, Second and Third world is about the Cold War not WW2[/QUOTE]
Yeah I meant to write to "after" rather than "during" just fixed it.
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;45826890]you know I don't blame the parents, I blame the dumb fuck religion they were most likely brought up in.[/QUOTE]
Yeah it's horrible, but don't ever think there all religious folks are this way. One of my good friends is a pretty strict christian, with one exception. He doesn't believe his morals should have any influence on others, he constantly stands up in the face of these idiots and says "What is wrong with you?" A good example, when the bill for gay marriage came to his state he did one of the most amazing things. He didn't vote, he put it aside. Even though it's against his beliefs he still knows it is important for his beliefs to stay within his household and his religious group.
I can't tell you how much I respect him because he was brought up in a household a lot like this, to know how to separate your personal beliefs from the rest of society is a trait that people all too often won't accept. If more religious people could abide by that one simple rule then the world would be such a better place, there would be a hell of a lot less conflict at least. But because the bible is such an easy book to interpret in your own way people constantly use it as a brainwashing tool to make simple things a big problem.
It breaks my heart to see a family tore apart because of these stupid beliefs, it also puts a bad taste in the mouths of those who want to come out but are now too scared of the consequences.

I agree with the mother on one thing: He's a son of a bitch :v:
The whole idea of sexuality being a choice is fucking ridiculous to begin with.
If someone ever uses that on you, just simply ask them when they 'chose' to be heterosexual.
Nothing says "Jesus" like assaulting a relative.

I like to use food as an analogy. You don't choose to like ice cream or not; you don't put the ice cream in your mouth and say "Alright, I have to decide whether I want to like the taste of this ice cream or if I want to dislike the taste." You just put the ice cream in your mouth and have a positive reaction to its flavour or a negative one.
I think that's a fairly simple way to convey how subjective tastes aren't choice.

When you have your own house and job and all that , just do it. Make it impossible for them to have any power over you, as well as record it, in case they try to do anything.
they probably won't do anything, as most people aren't psycho's, but you'll have to do it some day.

When the cannon hits, everyone will instantly become flamboyant and like really gay shit, like the Jonas Brothers, and Capri pants.
This is the gay agenda's greatest victory.

Fucking idiot. He's better off without these cunts. How the fuck can you treat your own blood like that?
Edit: Just watched the full thing, Jesus. She (he?) punches the kid and everyone defends her. What the hell? Objectively she was in the wrong for physically hitting him.[/QUOTE]
*texan accent or whatever kind of accent it is* "I believe in the word of God..."
Well, we all know from where this train is coming and where its gonna stop...
(sorry for making the stereotype, but wow, its impressively dead on)
Holy fuck what the fuck man. Exactly how you asked. How can you do that to your own flesh and blood?
Utter pigshit of a dad.
What goes through these people's heads? Do they really think that someone would [B][U]choose [/U][/B]to go out with a guy instead of a girl even if that would mean being disowned?
Why would anyone choose to go through so much shit on purpose?
And it's scary that people value what's written in a book more than their own children...

Essentially if it isn't a choice then it makes their god look like a massive immoral dickhead, therefore they convince themselves it has to be a choice since god can't be wrong.
My dad was born in Oklahoma, and raised in Texas.
My mom was born in backwoods New Hampshire, and grew up in small-town Maine.
My mother is Lutheran Protestant and my dad grew up in a Baptist family.
They didn't care when I came out to them, they were more afraid that I'd be scared of them. They say "You will still be our child, you will still be here with us, and we will always love you"
