I was once a big supporter of the LGBT community. And why not? Gays are fun. They're sassy and stylish and a girl's best guy friend who isn't sexually threatening. How dare the government ignore the AIDs crisis and shun them and let them die? How dare the Christian right prevent them from marrying just like everyone else? They deserve dignity and the same rights. They just want to live in peace!

Fast forward to Weimar Republic 2 over here. To me realizing that the AIDs crisis was caused by indiscriminate, meaningless sex and orgies that the gay community just refused to stop, and would have actually rather died than stopped (and they did). You know, similar to the spread of monkeypox. To me learning that the rates of childhood sexual abuse, both inflicted upon and committed by, gay men is rather, well, high. To finally understanding the end result of queer theory is the current awfulness we are seeing with TRAs, and the erosion of safeguarding for women and children.

It's a strange thing, to have your previous strongly held beliefs on this completely turned on their head.

Great comment, I feel the same way but don't think I would have written it as well.

As a guy who prefers female friends, I wish this wasn't such a problem, but you know women, all they think about is sex, sex, sex. There's some exceptions, but mostly they just can't respect a platonic friendship.

I can relate to this some. I didn't like the censorship. I felt mislead when I found out about after the ball. I'm not sure what I think overall now.

Congratulations! Now that you see the truth, would you agree with Islam that fags should be tossed off of buildings? It’s only right.
