PartySick 134,805 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I wonder how this rapper feels about his genre beingĀ full of d--gs, murder, s-x, violence, gang lifestyle, all the real "hood sh*t" but god forbid some kid who's trying to find out who they are sees someone on TV reassure them and let them know that it's ok to be you.Get your priorities straight, Lil' Crappy.Ā R u š? š¤Øš· Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 87,548 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 What on Earth is LGBTQTIAĀ Might as well add straight people in there too Ā I do think this acronym thing is out of hand, they just keep adding things and everyone uses a different one and it's so confusing Ā People should just come up with a word that means "non-straights + transgenders".

Tropico 4,145 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 this is honestly the type of thing i was talking about in the PoC thread Ā in the "hood" you cant be soft and even entertaining the idea of something like transgenderdism(is that the right word?) will never come up. Ā True. Before rreading yoyour post in th thread, I'd have just called him a dick. But I understand now that when you grow up in the hood, femininity is a terrible trait to have as a man. Ā Ā I don't think that the amount of support one gets would change tho. But the amount of backlash would be to a greater extent if it was a black trans woman. Ā Currently, with Caitlyn, she is only getting "I don't care"'s and "disgusting"'s from the POC community (as seen with Chris Brown). But if someone who is truly admired in the hood like a big hip hop artist, like Kanye, were to transition, Ā the backlash would be HUGE from fellow POC. Ā It's rather sad but very true.Ā Ā But I'm unimpressed by the "kids shouldn't do that" s--t. Ā No one wishes gender dysmorphia onto a child or ANYONE really but I'd much rather a child transition their s-x to align with their gender than a child kill themselves due to gender dysmorphia. Ā He sounds very ignorant on the matter.Ā I do think this acronym thing is out of hand, they just keep adding things and everyone uses a different one and it's so confusing Ā People should just come up with a word that means "non-straigts + transgenders". That's what queer means. Ā ā¢ Social Justice Enthusiast ā¢ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 87,548 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Ā That's what queer means.

Mister Gaga 21,892 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 You shouldn't teach **** to your children, man.You should tell them that no matter gay, straight or bi, lesbian, transgendered life; they'reĀ on the right track, baby, they wereĀ born to survive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropico 4,145 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Okay so just say "queer", don't add then million letters that no one knows what they mean to the acronym Ā Yes using the term queer is easier but it's about being inclusive. As-xual, Ā inters-x and other peopleĀ who don't just fall into the LGBT category obviously don't appreciate being left out for the sake of making it easier to remember for the masses. It wouldn't kill for people to learn about a few more s-xualitiesĀ which don't fit into the gay and straight binary. This would solve the erasure problem in the community.Ā ā¢ Social Justice Enthusiast ā¢ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would solve the erasure problem in the community.Ā Then come up with something more inclusive than queer Ā I agree with you, I just think it is quite impractical in the daily life being like "LBGTQTIA", and a lot of people even use different acronyms than that with other s-xualities and it would be nice to have a term that unifies and simplifies everything. I don't mean to say some s-xualities matter more than others. If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
