if heterosexual couples had to go through the same efforts to have a kid

There's still no such thing as an in-person opposite-sex relationship that is happy and stable and I fully admit I only defend long-distance ones for the sake of avoiding hypocrisy as I'm currently in one because my boyfriend and we stabilize eachother's mental health. A home with opposite-sex parents cannot be an adequately safe and caring environment for a child because of this lack of equality and thus stability.

I'm afraid I can't quite make sense of your assertions here, as they sound as dogmatic and disconnected from reality as some of the sentiments of some women on Ovarit.

The only stable, happy couple I've ever met full stop was two lesbians I knew in high school. Meanwhile, my (opposite-sex) parents are both dicks to eachother and are really fukken bad at parenting.

I back my ideas with observation and logic.

That's what most of us here do. Making a blanket statement that's trivially easy to refute—so easy that it isn't worth the effort to do so—is a perplexing choice.

I'm sorry your parents are dicks, nonetheless.

Yeah I'm pretty damn sorry they're dicks too, they're a right pain to put up with.

Lol, what? Are you saying that heterosexual people aren't happy and no heterosexual relationship is good and stable? Like...what the hell? I hope I'm reading this comment wrong because it just makes literally no sense.

What's there not to understand? Due to differences in physical strength and socialization, women cannot even give genuine, uncoerced full consent to sex with men. How could a relationship on such shaky grounds be stable long-term. And mind you, I'm not a lesbian who only understands relationships with males in the theoretical sense, I'm deeply in love with a man and we've been long-distance but exclusive for two years now.

Due to differences in physical strength and socialization

My ex was stronger than me, so I guess I should tell him that he was raping me all this time? Or does it not count because we are both men? What about all the other homosexual men and women in relationships with somebody stronger? Are they being raped as well because of the "differences in physical strength and socialization"?

I'm sorry but your statement is absolutely ridiculous and insane.

Yes, I've been recently made aware, an IRL friend of mine found my Saidit account this evening, read through my comments, and sent me an 11-point bulleted list over Discord of why I'm evidently a goddamn moron for thinking like this, that a bunch of the shit I've written here is fucktarded, and that wherever I originally found these ideas is highly suspect and is almost certainly some form of ideological agitation meant to drive people away from reality (It was some website I followed from a link on Tumblr when I was 13, so that honestly is at least within the realm of possibility).
