But I really hate how some people think of gays as women with a penis. They don't have high-pitched voices. They don't wear PANK all the time. They don't worry about hair and their looks and clothes. Those are stereotypes.
Shit I'm a stereotype.

And yes Banana, I'm a guy.
Could a man and women get shot for holding hands? Maybe, but it's about 400% more likely with two women/men. In fact, I'd wager to say that, outside of left-wing towns (San Francisco), you have a 10% chance of getting beaten for holding hands if you're gay. 30% chance of a lecture about how sinful you are. 2% chance of just being up and killed.
And that's just for holding hands.
(This is all pure speculation, mind you, but I'm just trying to make a point.)

Gay as springtime, if seasons could have a sexuality.

Is it bad that the first thing I thought of was this?
...I've seen The Producers too many times.

Not that bad, considering I was thinking of the same thing as I posted it.

What is 90% of a city's populations, possibly up to 1000 people a day or more, walking down the street, holding the opposite sex's hand/arm?
There are straight parades, they're just in the regular crowds of people. It's painful to us to have to watch all these men and women be able to freely express their love when they are out together, but we can't?
Those same people would persecute us were the situation reversed. Now gay pride parades may not be the right way to go about it, but it's true that these people do need to just get used to the fact that we're here and we're not going anywhere.
I thought the gender thread would clear this up.
Another thing is: I think if a homophobe sees 200+ gay people walking down the street, he may be less likely to try to intimidate or beat any of us. There is strength in numbers.
That's not exactly straight pride parades. I've seen gay couples holding hands in public before and no one giving a shit.

Huh. Maybe it's the fact that Epona in the games is a mare....
No, I'm afraid to say I'm actually the exact opposite of that stereotype. I don't like PANK, I has no lisp, and about half of my clothes are shit. :/

Why should we take anything less than equality?
There are men who do that kind of thing all the time 'HEY BRO I TOTALLY FUCKING BANGED THAT CHICK, IT WAS SO GREAT, LET ME TELL YOU....' sure some people may think he's a bit of a booty, but no one would (usually) throw a hissey fit, get violent, or become extremely offended.

They do that with their friends. If there's a woman around they'll get extremely offended and other people would, like you said, think he's a booty. They'll also think he's some sort of pervert.
It's the same when homosexuals do it, except they'll think all gay people are perverts. Why? You tell me.
If you're gonna do something like that just do it with your friends.

It doesn't matter what your orientation is, if you feel you have to brag about it to your friends (or complete strangers) you must be insecure or an attention seeker of sorts.
I thought the only people who needed to know about what went on in a relationship were the two individuals directly involved. I guess that makes me either old fashioned or means I don't give a rat's arse what people think, or both.
Also, the majority of this thread is about people bragging about their orientation to complete strangers.
You all win the internet.
