Can I call you a fruitcake? Can I call black people n--whatever-it-is?
I'm neither gay nor black nor female nor abnormally short. Why does that
mean that when I call you 'fruitcake', it's discriminatory?
What you've implied is that gay people mean 'fruitcake' as a joke or
something, but us 'breeders' can only mean it derogatorily ('Gay guys
can call me a fruitcake... The difference is who means it'). That sounds
like discrimination to me.
(Sorry, I'm just annoyed at the fact that straight, white,
regular-height males can be discriminated against and if they complain
they're called absurd. Now waiting for posts to call me absurd. But it's
no more absurd than what some minority groups get other people into
trouble for. Maybe I have to become gay or something to get equality...)
Tristan.
