[QUOTE=doonbugie2;28379964]I have never seen a "Asian alliance club" at a school.[/QUOTE] Cool, I guess you go to every school in America and can speak for them all?

[QUOTE=doonbugie2;28379886]What about oppressed for being black, asian, etc... They dont have clubs?[/QUOTE] Uh, there's an African American culture/society/whatever club at my school?

[QUOTE=Zeke129;28379971]are there asian people there[/QUOTE] I live in British Columbia. Gold rush, railroad, oldest china towns. [editline]2nd March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Jimpy;28379987]Cool, I guess you go to every school in America and can speak for them all?[/QUOTE] I dont live in America. Why would I ever want to live in america?

[QUOTE=doonbugie2;28379994]I live in British Columbia. Gold rush, railroad, oldest china towns. [editline]2nd March 2011[/editline] I dont live in America. Why would I live in america?[/QUOTE] Ok so maybe they didn't form a club? I don't understand your tortured logic, every oppressed group ever doesn't have a club so none of them should?

[QUOTE=Xen Tricks;28380002]Ok so maybe they didn't form a club? I don't understand your tortured logic, every oppressed group ever doesn't have a club so none of them should?[/QUOTE] I'm trying to say some students could hold these clubs against them, teenagers being teens it is bound to happen.

[QUOTE=doonbugie2;28380017]I'm trying to say some students could hold these clubs against them, teenagers being teens it is bound to happen.[/QUOTE] Ok then, some ignorant cunts are bigoted, this would be the same club or not. And this isn't a gay club, per se, it's a GSA. It's to improve relations and understanding and all that between gay and straight students, in addition to being a group for gay people. Seriously, who gives a shit if some idiot hates gay people more for hanging out together?

[QUOTE=Jimpy;28380022]Then why are you speaking about American high schools?[/QUOTE] I never said I was, yet we have the same clubs here.

I also dont see what is to understand, its just a sexual preference.

Yeah it's a sexual preference, but it's a sexual preference that comes with a massive load of baggage and historical hate and bigotry throughout the world. Things are nowhere near equal.

Things are nowhere near equal.[/QUOTE] Then maybe if people stopped caring about sexual preference it would stop, we do live in the 21st century where sexual preference isnt that big of a describing factor in North America. I also think that stuff like "Gay pride flags" and other symbols separate the community and are counterproductive in the 21st century, but hey obviously the views of a single person are not important at all. If the world wants to be so equal maybe we should remove all labels and instead describe humans as, humans. To me the gay pride flag says "We are separate from the rest of society". You wont understand, but instead find a way to argue with me so I'll finish this post.

It's better to raise awareness to the issue and try and push for acceptance than just, you know, ignore it.

I also would like to propose you update your quotation as I updated it before you posted, though you probably dont care.

Therein lies the whole problem. And I don't think it separates them, it's just part of their identity. They're a part of society and a part of the gay culture, it's not one or the other.

Oh for Fucks Sake, Texas with your Stereotypes and Homophobia the size of your 10 Gallon hats.

[QUOTE=thisispain;28380146]i'm sorry is your ideal world one where every single person is exactly the same?[/QUOTE] You misunderstood, no need to be sorry. I wish for every human being to be described as a human being and not as a "gay", "jew" etc but as a human. I dident mean down to something like "He is a Photographer".

[/QUOTE] yeah but the solution to these things isn't to simply wishy washy it away gay people and straight people are not the same. logical people would accept this. the solution to misogyny is not to simply label women as men

The brain of a gay and straight person look exactly the same.

[QUOTE=doonbugie2;28380159] I blame religion.[/QUOTE] Yea pretty much.

[QUOTE=doonbugie2;28380196]They are the same, the way look at the opposite sex however is different. The brain of a gay and straight person look exactly the same.[/QUOTE] but they aren't though. they have different wants and needs. they identify differently. you can't just go "oh you're just a straight guy but a little weird keep it in the bedroom".

[QUOTE=thisispain;28380238]but they aren't though. they have different wants and needs. they identify differently. you can't just go "oh you're just a straight guy but a little weird keep it in the bedroom".[/QUOTE] you dont understand my logic. I quit :p

you said gay pride was counter-productive but i'm the one who's not understanding something? sounds like your logic isn't worth understanding mate

[QUOTE=thisispain;28380290]you said gay pride was counter-productive but i'm the one who's not understanding something? sounds like your logic isn't worth understanding mate[/QUOTE] That isnt what I said. Im finished, no longer replying in this thread as Its 3AM and I dont feel as if Facepunch is worth missing sleep for.

[QUOTE=SigmaLambda;28378919]straight people don't need clubs because they are not oppressed/denied legal rights that gays have[/QUOTE] You've forgotten this is the US. They don't make a product/service for a dependency, but create the dependency for a service/product.

[QUOTE=doonbugie2;28379994]I live in British Columbia. Gold rush, railroad, oldest china towns. [/QUOTE] Is there anything stopping them from forming an asian club If not, you don't have an argument

[QUOTE=Zeke129;28379816][img_thumb]http://i.cubeupload.com/XVQj7d.png[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] When he herps, he derps as well.

My school in Austin has a GSA. Too bad i hated all the people in it because they irritated the fuck out of me by making sure they were always the center of attention.

holy shit thats the school district next to mine, and I haven't heard anything of it....

[QUOTE=Broseph_;28371894]Fixed that for you! :eng101:[/QUOTE] Catholic cunts are generally conservative cunts as well.

my uncle used to be the super intendendent of that school.
