It’s not even about homophobia because the LGBT community has guaranteed rights here in the US. Sure, in some pockets of America, people still get worked up if they hear someone is gay, but most of the population accepts people with those orientations without any issue. I hang out with a few of them myself and I don't have any prejudices. However, I *am* against the public promotion of that kind of sexuality as being "cool" or "trendy," or using the media to present LGBT people as role models for kids. I also don't like how young people are exposed to porn without any limits—including all sorts of paraphilias—while simultaneously being told it’s all perfectly fine and that everyone has the right to enjoy their sexuality no matter what, including those extreme kinks...
Pornography has drifted so far away from those cheesy movies from the 70s and 80s. Now, scenes are basically rape simulations, or they're mostly group stuff, anal, rough sex, bukkake, BDSM, trans content, and endless variations of that. Honestly, all these niche categories are mostly filmed for hardcore porn addicts who can't get high enough off the standard stuff anymore. Those trans categories are mostly watched by straight men who have gone way too far down the rabbit hole of addiction, and that kind of exposure does irreparable damage to their sexual health.
When it comes to kids, I’m totally against pushing things like boys wearing skirts—you know, all that messaging about how being gay is "cool," giving them LGBTQ+ figures as role models, or just this general push to feminize boys as part of some woke agenda. Kids are incredibly easy to influence, and they just soak up whatever is served to them without questioning it...
Look, nobody is out here discriminating against being gay, but why does it feel like it's constantly being shoved down everyone's throats through the media and the school system? Why does a small group—maybe 5 or 10% of the population—get to force their specific worldview on everyone else, leaving the rest of us to just blindly accept it regardless of how it affects how kids learn and act..?
One really should consider the facts here—chimpanzees sit at the peak of the evolutionary hierarchy within the primate lineage, immediately preceding the genus Homo. Given that we share approximately 98 percent of our DNA with them, they are arguably our closest biological relatives.
If we accept that animals engage in sexual behavior for pleasure rather than just for procreation—including instances of same-sex pairings among both males and females—then I suppose that suggests something significant. It would imply that homosexuality is a natural occurrence within the animal kingdom; and if it is indeed natural for them, maybe it is also natural for us. Therefore, one could argue that when a person is homosexual, they were simply born that way, rather than being shaped by social pressures or external circumstances.
I suppose there is a fundamental necessity to distinguish between what is truly natural and what constitutes pure perversion.
I suppose it isn’t really about homophobia, since the LGBTQ+ community has guaranteed rights here in the States. While I guess some people in certain parts of America might still bristle at the mention of someone being gay, the vast majority of the population seems to accept those orientations without much fuss. I personally have several friends in that community and I don't hold any prejudices against them. However, I find myself opposed to the way this kind of sexuality is being pushed as something trendy or "cool," especially when the media presents LGBTQ+ individuals as role models for the youth. It feels like young people are being exposed to pornography without any meaningful boundaries—including all sorts of modern paraphilias—all while being told that everything is perfectly fine and that everyone has the right to indulge in any sexual expression they choose, regardless of whether it involves paraphilias or not.
What exactly do you mean when you suggest that this kind of sexuality is being openly promoted as something popular and cool?
I suppose one might wonder exactly which groups are involved here, who they are, and what specific methods they use to push their agenda regarding LGBT identity.
Regarding the issue of pornography, I suppose I agree that children ought to be shielded from all forms of it, particularly when it comes to more perverse content.
Modern pornography has drifted incredibly far from the classic adult films we saw back in the 70s and 80s. Nowadays, the content seems to revolve around simulated assault, group scenarios, and increasingly aggressive acts like BDSM or extreme fetishes. I suppose most of these niche categories are specifically produced for hardened addicts who have become desensitized to mainstream material. It seems to me that the more transgressive genres are largely consumed by heterosexual men whose addictions have spiraled out of control, and I suspect this constant exposure causes irreparable damage to their actual sexual health.
I can't say I have an exhaustive list of these depravities at hand, though I hear enough about them from industry veterans to get the gist. I remember the first time I caught myself pitying one of those girls—wondering what exactly went wrong in her life that led her to film adult content. I found myself thinking about how she was once just a little girl playing with Barbies, dreaming about the future, and wondering where her parents were to guide her, or why she didn't just find a job as a waitress instead. It is difficult... when you look at a depersonalized human being, reduced merely to physical orifices under the glare of studio lights, and see a lost soul caught in the vortex of time... how does one even continue watching someone sell their dignity for money without feeling a sense of profound sadness?
I don't think anyone is actually discriminating against homosexuality, but I can't help but wonder why it feels like it's being constantly shoved down everyone's throats through the media and the education system. I suppose one has to ask why a mere 5 or 10 percent of the population should have the leverage to push their specific ideologies onto everyone else, forcing the rest of us to just blindly accept it regardless of the potential consequences of such teaching and behavior.
Maybe it's not quite 5 or 10 percent? Based on that Galup anecdote from 2002, about 22 percent of people in the USA identified as homosexual.
If you look at other minority groups that frequently face discrimination, the latest census shows that African Americans make up about 12 percent of the American population.
The Jew population in the USA is roughly 2 percent. I guess if you compare those figures, you can draw your own conclusions about what's really happening here.
