In addition, be it heterosexual or homosexual, I don't think that anything of a nature as s*xual preferences should be a public matter, especially if it is as s*xualized as the video shows. I think that it belongs on a individual and private scale, if at all. That is a major reason why I despise the premise of a festival like this. I would dislike it almost as much if it was done for heterosexual people. But nowadays a lot of stuff is səxualized. And what would be the threshold to consider personal preferences to be out of the personal sphere? Would two men holding their hands or kissing in public be too much? Sure, in a gay pride you might see more than that, but then what do you usually see when you go to the beach, for instance? Very scantily clad women, that's what. If I don't have issues with that, why should I have issues with gay prides? I dream of a world where someone expressing their səxual orientation, səxual identification, religious beliefs, etc would be met only with a yawn. But that would probably happen only when Skynet will take over the world (Amazon/Apple/Google are doing a good job so far, it shouldn't take too much). Machines don't judge you. They just kill you. Equality, finally! |

I think that it belongs on a individual and private scale, if at all. That is a major reason why I despise the premise of a festival like this. I would dislike it almost as much if it was done for heterosexual people. Well a lot of the romantic connotations are removed from an act like holding hands or hugging, but I am firmly opposed to public kissing. Like I said, I believe that to be a personal and private matter. On another hand, if a homosexual couple walked up to me and mentioned in passing that they were married, then I would not bat an eye. I would think that they were mistaken, but merely being married is not nearly as scandalous as kissing in public. As for the second arguement, I am certainly unhappy with the rejection of decency in western cultures, but where I live it really isn't a problem, and the expansion of it is certainly unwanted. I would say those qualities are far too important to be met with merely a yawn - they are fundamental qualities that completely shape a person's life. However, if your point is that they should not be seen as the foremost quality in a person, then I completely concur. |

I disagree. I think that, while discrimination is always wrong, that tolerance can often be misplaced. While it is intolerant to tell somebody that their lifestyle is wrong, it may be the right call.

I would dislike it almost as much if it was done for heterosexual people. Your profile used to be William Jennings Bryan and you link to the Babylon Bee. Interesting opinions you have there... Guilty as charged. I have always had "interesting opinions," to speak of. Ironically, my two favorite politicians of the Gilded Age were WJB & Silent Cal, polar opposites. As for the Babylon Bee, they are hilarious, as much as I disagree with their economic ideas. |

However, if your point is that they should not be seen as the foremost quality in a person, then I completely concur. Yes, obviously they can be very important, I meant that they shouldn't be considered as a meter of anyone's morality or immorality, or the proof of anyone's superiority or inferiority. Well, my moral relativism has limits: I wouldn't consider a necrophiliac (just to use an extreme example) as someone that simply has different views from mine, but equally respectable... I'd say that generally my moral compass is founded on Jesus's sermon of the mount (I'm not talking about anything spiritual or metaphysical, just in terms of behavioural norms), though in a less demanding and totally non-religious version. I might be biased due to the catholic education I received, sure. Nonetheless I think that people from any part of the world would agree that it certainly isn't a harmful Weltanschauung, to say the least. Yes, I ruthlessly used the word "Weltanschauung" just for flexing, it would hardly pop up in my mind during an everyday conversation  |
