If all men are responsible for misogyny, then all straight people are responsible for homophobia. I don’t believe that either of the two are true, but I don’t understand how you can believe the former and not the latter.

I live in Macedonia, a very conservative country in South-Eastern Europe, where there are currently no anti-discrimination laws. Should I search for a job or a place to live, I could be denied either because of my sexual orientation. When I came out to my parents four months ago, they told me that if I I tell anyone

If a woman thinks of other women as lesser than men or judges them according to different standards compared to the way she judges men, she is a misogynist.

Should I as a gay man assume that every straight person is conspiring against me? Do straight people owe me anything?

No, but why would that matter?

If you can’t comprehend that men are not a monolithic hivemind, maybe it’s best that you not date one.

I get what you’re saying, but the lesser evil is still evil. To talk about the Pope as “cool”, even in jest, seems to be a privilege of those unaffected by his doctrine.

Don’t even get me started on the phenomenon that is known as Cool Pope™...

My mind has been blown. What does that even mean? What does being a “progressive” Mor(m)on blogger even entail?

The problem is that they ARE as accepting as their literature. There is not a single religious book that preaches the acceptance and morality that we need today.

You need to take off those rose-tinted glasses. Mormonism will NEVER, EVER be accepting.

Then again, every self-respecting LGBT person needs Mormonism like a fish needs a harpoon.

Cognitive dissonance is a hell of a drug...

Aww, that is so adorable :D

Unfortunately, there is only so much you can do, because the pressure to look attractive is not just societal. Valuing beauty as a positive trait is in our DNA - and that cannot be erased by anyone’s influence. However, you can teach your daughter that she has value regardless of her appearance and you can teach her

Moral relativism is NEVER a good look on anyone.

I beg your pardon? There’s nothing generic about Daniel Craig.

Hahahaha, “pimple popper MD” - hilarious!

That horse must be part mountain goat!

If JNCO jeans aren’t a precursor to the Apocalypse, I do not know what is...
