What’s confusing me about all this is why does someone feel they have the right to tell me with whom I can or can’t sleep, but it doesn’t seem to work the other way and I can’t order them (on pain of imprisonment or worse) to sleep with whom I decide? At the very least, that’s just plain rude; at worst, it’s outright fascist. 🤔

I genuinely don’t get homophobia. I have many petty prejudices, some rational and some irrational, but hating on someone for whom they’re dating isn’t one of them. For one thing, no one consciously chooses who they fancy, but even if it were a conscious decision, it still wouldn’t bother me one iota a man getting with another consenting man or a woman getting with another consenting woman. What I resent is other people being able to dictate by law what another must do or not do in this matter. I always think in these cases: How would the lawmakers/homophobes like it if they were told with whom they could or couldn’t get? I don’t think they would like it at all and they’d be right not to like it. To me, being homophobic is as pointless, irrational and moronic as feeling resentful of someone for digging Uranus because you’re not an astronomer.

@jaijai5250 Because you’re annoyed with a tiny minority of the gay community doesn’t mean you have to criminalise and persecute them all.
