You’re Delusional if You Think Queer People Are Responsible for This Moral Panic
There is this tiring argument that happens on the Internet (and in real life), where whenever something bad happens —i.e., an election doesn't go well, a terrible law is passed, a court decision reverses a group's rights, etc.—people try to push the blame onto the person or group hurt.
Alex Mell-TaylorPublished 2 years ago in PrideHomo-Holiday
I’m an authentic homosexual which/witch means at now 51 years old (never having sex with a biological female) and monogamous for 7 years in a 25+ year relationship after “coming out” at 16-17 years old and striking out on my on in the world I’ve had quite a journey. One thing that is very unique to the “gay”/alternative lifestyle community is how many are completely disowned by their families as they go through their own personal “coming out” process. I was also an infant advertised for adoption in the Newark Star Ledger who was adopted and socialized from infancy until I left home with two parents who then divorced and I went through my childhood socialization/“grew up” in a Judeo-Christian cult that did not allow the celebration of holidays. As my now deceased, former adoptive, father got a free turkey from work every year and they were both off work and I was off school Thanksgiving was the closest to celebrating any holiday I was allowed. I wasn’t even able to celebrate my own birthday.
Christopher “CJ” HerringPublished 2 years ago in PrideThis Anti-Trans Moral Panic Was Never About How We Define Gender
There's been a huge debate about the "transgenders" recently. I can hear the "just asking questions" starter pack now. Are trans women real women? What is gender? What is sex? Do we really need to respect these people who are changing the game on this thing that has always existed?

Happy National Coming Out Day… Celebrate With Your VOTE!
We are less than a month out from the US elections on November 8, standing at the crossroads of love and fear, knowing that once again, voters will help determine whose lives matter. In my book, all of the anti-trans legislation across America should be enough to send republicans packing. But of course, that’s not the thing that’ll do it. Overturning Roe, though- seems to have sent motivation to many. Good. It’s all the same conversation, really, a political party that is trying to (continue to) legislate a sickly twisted version of Christianity onto all of us. But the cishet rank and file, unless they both know AND support a trans human, likely wouldn’t rush to the polls in any great numbers to save us.

Why Netflix Should Have Never Labeled 'Dahmer' An LGBTQ+ Series
Since its debut on September 21, 2022, Ryan Murphy's latest offering on Netflix has stirred up a lot of controversy. Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story sought out to tell the story of the notorious serial killer from the perspective of the victims and, with that, tell the story from behind a lens that we haven't really seen before. Lead actor Evan Peters even said in promotional content for the series that the show wasn't even about Jeffrey Dahmer, despite his name being in the title twice.

Why Would Europe Want to Risk (An ALL Out ) Nuclear War
Let’s start with President Putin’s announcement of a partial mobilization of 300,000 troops in support of referendums in southern zones after Donbass regarding Russian intentions to use a vote in the referendum as rationale for joining the seized regions into the Russian Federation. NATO is in an uncertain situation. They forced themselves into the predicament. However, the enigma continues.
