Jesus Christ, LBGT month is okay, but if you're actually incorporating "gay" to school curriculum you're only giving the Republicunts ammunition.

[QUOTE=sloppy_joes;27595583]This is just some bullshit "politically correct" movement, it'll blow over soon[/QUOTE]
Black History month was to be politically correct, it never blew over.
[QUOTE=FeartheMango;27595933]It's the fact that the month [b]identifies[/b] the group as a minority, and it's because of that that racism thrives. If people didn't identify Black people as someone apart from them, and rather recognized them as 'Bob' or 'Steve' then there would be no reason to desecrate them with derogatory comments.[/QUOTE]
The problem here is that black people are a minority, and will for the most part always be. They will never be apart of the majority. We celebrate them because to forget what they have had to struggle through would be a tradgey.
And why is everyone upset about this? History is not straight history. It has all colors and shapes. Written history is straight history. There are a lot of homosexuals who contributed massive amounts to the world and get completely disregarded because of this washing of history to a white/straight flavor.
What baffles me the most is, why math class?
I'm gay and I don't support this.

What I was saying was that you won't have ___ cars or ____ toilets, it won't realistically go further than this.
A lot of people are having a hissy fit simply from this sort of thing, imagine if anything bigger happened.
I bet in 20 years we'll have islam history month.
It wouldn't surprise me.
[QUOTE=Explosions;27596455]What baffles me the most is, why math class?[/QUOTE]
Because the straight norm is completely embedded in to all aspects of our culture. I don't ever remember a math problem about two guys who are getting married, in fact I absolutely know there would never be one. This reinforces ideas and concepts that make it OK in children's heads to exclude gays and think of them as a subclass.

I fixed your post, seems you made a pretty large typo.
[QUOTE=Fuhrer;27596507]I bet in 20 years we'll have islam history month.[/QUOTE]
Seeing as how Islam has played a very significant role in history I would hope it has a regular place in the curriculum and wouldn't need a month.
What the fuck, why isn't their Straight Pride Month? Everything that's "different" just has to get their own fucking celebration.

This.
I'm all behind a gay history month, but this is just farcical.

No it isn't, so stop propagating that it is.

Funny enough almost every group that espouses "white pride" is really damn racist. Also seeing as how straight people make up the focus of most of history, yea it is.

Okay, so, what's the problem?
This is almost as infuriating as that one time I was asked how many apples Marquel would have if he had 6, gave 1 to his teacher, 2 to his friends Jenny and Will, and got 4 more at the end of the day.
Like I fucking care about some black dude and his apples.

I can't possibly imagine why people think racism against (American, it's different if it's, say, Saudi Arabia) whites is viewed as more acceptable than other groups.

It's not culturally okay to be prejudice against anyone, we have laws forbidding it, but a lot of people hate us because white people are responsible for a lot of the problems in the world.
