Queer Theory and what it apparently advocates

[Darth Robbhi]

Yes.

Assuming a 4.5% homosexual prevalence in the US, and a 50% rape rate, that's something like 1.7 million child rapes nationwide, not counting child rape from all other causes.

That's a lot of child rape. That estimate is greater than the prevalence estimates of all child rape nationwide.

The numbers of homosexuals in america are often inflated.

More Social Justice insanity. I’m not sure how much more thought I’d want to put into it. It’s vile stuff, it’s almost like anti-philosophy. Where as correct thinking can lead us toward behavior and ideas that increase human wellbeing, that lead us to truth, that reveal moral truths. This stuff does the opposite. It’s one of the reasons universities are so terrible, because they are breeding grounds for this sort of horribleness

What’s next, people studying the Dark Side? Maybe Slaanesh worship being recognized as an official religion?

 

[CarlManvers2019]

A particularly corrosive one, at that. Queer theory ultimately destroys even homosexuality itself if you think about it.

How much of this so-called “community” is even made up of people attracted to the same sex or have genuine body dysphoria?

Well, they do have a strong sense of sheer arrogance, and look to essentially be ruling over a self-inflicted rotting carcass of a civilization.

Though they are facing actual resistance to varying degrees

The numbers of homosexuals in america are often inflated.

4.5% is based on self identification in surveys done by Gallup since 2012. Even if you go with just 3.5% as the prevalence of homosexuality (based on their 2012 findings), then you still have a ballpark number equal to the estimates of total child rapes.

Really depends on what you mean by community. You can probably reliably say they're not scantily-clad and dancing at the local gaybar.

You know, I’m pretty sure LGBT only got so accepted by behaving and dressing normal, doing that stuff will lead to people reevaluating them

Thats gay men, correct?

 

[Darth Robbhi]

No, LGBT across the board. Roughly 3.9% of men and 5.1% of women identified as LGBT in 2019.

Why? It hasn't for straight folks, as long as they're pretty, anyway.

There's a big difference between looking skanky at the bar, and looking skanky at the teller's window. People pretty much expect scantily clad folks at a club - eye candy at least is part of the raison d'etre.

Right well we obviously wouldnt count "gay" women.

 

[Strigan44]

The fact that most homosexuals were themselves raped as children would be pretty damming.

And why is that?

Found something interesting over on Kiwifarms. What do you guys think?

...You mean the same site that's been used to organize multiple harassment campaigns? Is that really supposed to be a serious source?

You know, I’m pretty sure LGBT only got so accepted by behaving and dressing normal, doing that stuff will lead to people reevaluating them

Dude, have you ever actually read about the history of the LGBT rights movement?

 

[LifeisTiresome]

And? I don't give a shit.

I just thought it was interesting and wanted to show it to others and see what they think.

I mean, if that were the case. I'm sure it isn't.

I don't think the statistics for this line up as 'all,' but I wouldn't be surprised if there is a correlation.

One thing that I have found to be true, in all except for *one* case of homosexual individuals I have known, is that the individual had an *intensely* dysfunctional relationship with one of their parents in particular. Of course, I've known plenty of non-homosexual people who've had dysfunctional relationships with one parent in particular, but it seems to be the rule with homosexuals.

That one exception I know, I've not actually known well enough to know if that was the case or not.

This obviously isn't systemic statistical evidence, but it is suggestive. Much like how the Suspiciously Specific Denial regarding the 'gay gene' and how it Absolutely Exists even if it has never been located is often mentioned in the same breath or paragraph as 'abuse or sexual abuse is in no way tied to homosexuality!'

Or bisexuals, maybe.

 

[ShadowsOfParadox]

personally I suspect that if sexual preference is genetic it's probably epi-genetic. And epi-genetics are pretty hard to pin down due to the whole "expression changes based on early life". But even if it isn't either that doesn't mean it's a choice either. AFAIK there's no trans-gene, but every genuinely trans person has a brain more like the gender they identify as than their birth gender.

Nonsense, there is no correlation, and you shouldnt look for one, because it isnt there, and it definitely isnt massive.


Lesbians definitely exist too, and they're not just delusional people with some kind of violent parental history, most of which grow out of it.

 

[ReeeFallin]

Do... you not think that they exist?

To be fair, while the membership of Kiwifarms mostly consists of sociopaths obsessed with tearing other people down, the data they dig up is usually sound. I mean I've tried to disprove some of the things they've said, simply out of sheer distaste for their behavior, but whenever I did it always checked out. Now as for their interpretation of the data, that's another matter.
