Being gay

Question

Being gay

Remember when being gay was respectable and no one cared that you were a fag?
Remember when characters could just BE Gay and no one cared?
Remember when you could watch a cartoon and you'd think, "Oh Patty's gay now. Sure ok" and no one fucking cared?(!)
So why does every other god damn cartoon need to go, "HEY I'M GAY!!! PAY ATTENTION ME BECAUSE I'M GAY AND..." no one fucking cares.

On facebook. I follow a few comic book pages that have been posting Damian and John (super sons) and how John came out Bisexual. I don't care, but a lot of people on facebook don't get that John is a new character and they made him bisexual. I'm not against it as long as it's background and no used to enhance a story unless there's a character that hates on queers cause GOD said so. It's funny as fuck to watch facebookians loose it

I'm not against sexuality as long as you don't use it as ammo about anything and just use it as us straights, "Let me ask my husband what he wants to do tonight and I'll go around that" - Says a gay man. That's all. No one is asking for a life story.

So what the fuck happened? Why do we have so many faggots fucking shit up for the rest of the world? My gay friends are even sick of it.

Blame all the millennial and Gen Z women for forcing it down everyone's throats under the guise of "diversity and inclusion" its a fucking fetish to them.

I don't mind the diversity, I dont mind the inclusion but when they shove it down my throat it gets annoying.

Quit yappin
This is a Mission Hill thread now ya fairy. If ya don't like it, there's the door

Back in my day, men wore shirt and ties, look at ya, you ain't even wearin underpants

You have a very optimistic view of how most people viewed gays back in the day

Remember when being gay was respectable and no one cared that you were a fag?

No?

Same, we were actually more diverse back then. And gays just blended in. You couldn't really tell unless you were right next to them.

It was before the change.

Gus, i think we need to talk about the knife in your head

So why does every other god damn cartoon need to go, "HEY I'M GAY!!! PAY ATTENTION ME BECAUSE I'M GAY AND

a lot of characters exist without yelling it out
what are you talking about?

no one cared

that was like at best 5ish years and even then you'd have a controversy of someone being outted as gay or someone admitting they were afraid of coming out as gay or a story of them being bullied for being gay. whatever historical revisionism you're coming up is almost as bad as the leave it beaver/norman rockwell idea of the 1950s

You seem like a respectable individual. I also hate it. It stopped being just something and instead it's the main theme of the character and all the interactions they have. There's a difference between

hello, I would like to buy an apple

and

uhmm hiii (in the most flamboyant way possible), I would like to buy an apple. By the way, I'm gay

And the other character will either respond

OMG I totally support you. You're beautiful and a warrior. I'm an ally!

or

Uhmm, well you should die. Faggots will burn in hell, hahahaha. Heil Hitler!

Why do we have so many faggots fucking shit up for the rest of the world?

They don't have making media entertaining as their main goal. It's about the message and how we must improve. Because media was always a weapon of persuasion, and now they're abusing it

we were actually more diverse back then.

This is so ironic. And it felt natural

Remember when being gay was respectable and no one cared that you were a fag?

I'll take "Never happened" for ten.

I blame your generation for doing nothing to stop it.

Why do anons keep saying the same thing when it comes to these two characters?

honestly, no. being gay was almost always an issue. there was never acceptance. i'm technically bi (hooked up with another guy once and don't want to again) but it'd be world-ending for me to ever talk about it to anyone i know, even my biggest "ally" friends.

but i also get annoyed by people who make their sexuality their identity, like happens in comics. i dislike seeing a different character in x-books revealed as bi/gay every month. it's not THAT common.

flat out though, being a "gay" isn't accepted.

Looking back, the 2000s were the peak of equality in society. Blacks, whites, spics, and asians were all equally represented in media and everyone was fine with it, with the only people left out being Muslims, for obvious reasons. Everyone else was nice to each other, America was unified, patriotism was at an all-time high, gays were uncommon-but-accepted, trannies didn’t even exist; it all seemed so perfect. And then some minorities started demanding for “equity, not equality”, and relationships between basically every demographic just completely fell apart.

gays were uncommon-but-accepted,

They couldn't marry for most of the 2000's

Remember when characters could just BE Gay and no one cared?

Cant happen anymore because conservatives get offended at any queer/woke/dei shit in their media. They've become SJWs.

Anon gay marriage wasnt federally legalized until 2015

This anon gets it. OP was just a kid when this was airing, this is why it was "acceptable". You learned later to hate it.

What’s the point of marriage if you’re atheist and can’t have kids?

Tax benefits, hospital visitation rights, loads of legal reasons, etc.

Whats the reason we let infertile atheist heteros get married?

You sound like the type of boomer that hates his wife but yells at his 20 year old son to get married as soon as possible

the insane tax benefits

and also enshrining love i guess

Church didn't invent marriage

exactly

this There are plenty of gay characters in cartoons

(talking about Gus and Wally)
They were flamboyant at best but they never really used it as a talking point till the last ep where Wally explained how he fell in love with Gus.

this is my point exactly. No one cared but now if you're not even remotely bisexual today, everyone gets upset at you.

No, no. At the time, they could get married in about three states, Cali being one of them. I THINK Hawaii, too. Not sure. The Gays wanted to marry but didn't care to get married

this is true, but I watch a lot of old cartoons from the 90s, Daria, Mission Hill, Batman/Superman/Spiderman TAS, name a DC comics show form then I might know about it

Not everyone wants kids anon. I consider myself self Straight* who wants to marry a woman with a real pussy and I do not want kids. Gimme dem puppies to love

Insaid federally legalized.

The Gays wanted to marry but didn't care to get married

lol no

Anon, California voted against gay marriage. Their California supreme court over turned the prop.

Remember when being gay was respectable and no one cared that you were a fag?

No, that shit was a big deal in the 90's and early 2000's

Gays were tolerable before. Now they're extremely annoying. At least most the fags I knew could live civilized and in their corner.

then why the hell did everyone want to move to Cali? I thought blue states loved them some queers

Why do anons have this weird utopian idea of the 90s/2000s?

I dont but I'm saying compared to now it's very different. It's not about the 90s being a utopia it's about not giving a fuck

I'm starting to think you're actually quite young.

Zoomers born after 9/11 me thinks

Because they were children and the pre-9/11 days of America are viewed with nostalgia, especially as our country's economy collapses.

33. I dont know anything about cali laws, only what I heard.

Googled:

The first state to legalize gay marriage was Massachusetts, on May 17, 2004. This followed a ruling by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court that same-sex marriage was unconstitutional under the state's constitution. Massachusetts NPR reported that the first legal same-sex marriages in the U.S. were performed in Cambridge City Hall just after midnight on that day.

My bad anons, I swore it was Cali first. I'm in GA

It's about not giving a fuck

Idk man are you sure? I think that's exactly what gays want

No wars
No wokeness
No recessions
The world made sense
Sorry you're a godless animal and can't see that

Nostalgia argument NEVER works because you can ask the same to people there were teenagers, adults and olds and they will answer the same thing.

It's not perfect, but it was a really great time in general compared to any other decade, and probably the most relaxed one

You mean like actual gay characters or gay-coded characters?

No wars

No wokeness

No recessions

The world made sense

lmao
you clearly don't remember the 90s/2000s

Do you mean like a character who happens to be gay but not for the sale of being gay? Then yes. (agaIn) Take Gus and Wally from Mission Hill. Prime example. They are JUST gay and no one cares about it.

I mean it wasn't a problem like it is today where they want to make it a problem and even then it's not even old skool gays, its the zoomer gays

Remember when being gay was respectable and no one cared that you were a fag?

No, "gay" and "fag" have always been used as insults, it was never widely respected.

Remember when characters could just BE Gay and no one cared?

No, there were always people who got vocally bent out of shape about it.

Remember when you could watch a cartoon and you'd think, "Oh Patty's gay now. Sure ok" and no one fucking cared?(!)

No, it was always a stunt.

So why does every other god damn cartoon need to go, "HEY I'M GAY!!! PAY ATTENTION ME BECAUSE I'M GAY AND..." no one fucking cares.

The world was always like this but you were too young to notice.

The 90's were 30 years ago, teenagers, adults and olds will argue that it was better because they view it with nostalgia. Its insane to say people arent nostalgic for the 90's.

I've watched a lot of 90s shows and cartoons and no one ever really brought up that anyone was gay in a show even with gay characters.

Take Gus and Wally from Mission Hill. Prime example. They are JUST gay and no one cares about it.

If Mission Hill came out today Anon Babble would call Gus and Wally wokeshit pandering and forced down our throat (we first meet them kissing, after all). I just dont buy it. Too many easily offended reactionaries hang out here these days.

Flashback to the 2000s

Christianity sucks, DUDE

Let the gays get married, BRO

George Bush is lame as fuck, MAN

Republicans are stupid, RIGHT GUYS?

and now, we have the current landscape

Immigration crisis

Transgenders running amuck

Complete collapse of Western civilization

This is the landscape that not only jews paved but you as well.
Hell, I'm willing to bet none of you noticed the jews until, say, 10 years ago at best?
Before then, you were the smug internet atheists, spreading blasphemy and degeneracy across the world wide web
And now that you have faced the consequences, you are grovling for forgiveness
well, I'm here to assure you
that it is too late
You've abandoned Christ. And now he has abandoned you
you shat your bed, now lie in it

Christianity sucks, DUDE

Let the gays get married, BRO

George Bush is lame as fuck, MAN

Republicans are stupid, RIGHT GUYS?

All of those remain true

modern counter-culture is so fucking ridiculous. i hate zoomers and social media infected by bad actors that they fucking love

Actually, If you ever want to go ask Bill Oakley, you can DM him on any social media. He'll tell you that he wants to bring back mission hill but WB wont do shit with him. He needs to go to Netflix. I read that he wants to continue where the story left off in the late 2000s. Also, they wanted to make a Gus and Wally series at one point

I believe in a fairy tale

At least on Anon Babble I know cartoons and fairytales are made up

The jews

Orthodox Judaism generally prohibits homosexual acts, based on interpretations of the Torah and subsequent rabbinic teachings. If you google it, jews are 100% against gay

It's a shame that you have rejected your culture
Here is a little tune I wrote many moons ago. I think you need to hear it

You've abandoned Christ

Now he has abandoned (you)

You've abandoned Christ

Discard that was right and true

You fought for equal rights

Playing straight into the hand of the Jew

You've abandoned Christ

And now he has abandoned (you)

Thank you for listening

Bush's foreign policy overextending the military and lax oversight of the finance sector are directly responsible for the current landscape. If you're not happy with it, rest assured that G.W. is the one who did it to you.

No wars

First Iraq Invasion, followed by the military/economic embargo period that lasted until the Second invasion.
Yugoslavian War.
The Biggest Radio Show happened in Rwandan
Stingers, guns and Rambo were being shipped to the Taliban
Chechen War

No wokeness

The Gay Agenda was in full swing back then, claiming that half of all men mentioned in history class were homos and the AIDS crisis wasn't yet under control, so kids were being taught about condoms at every street corner.

No recessions

90s

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_1990s_recession_in_the_United_States

The world made sense

Your arse it did.

Remember when fags weren’t obnoxious about their faggotry and just kind of lived their lives? Remember when gay characters didn’t need to constantly fucking flag wave and have big retarded moments that reeked of insecurity just so they can say “WE’RE NORMAL GUYS SEE WE’RE NORMAL NOTHING TO SEE ITS JUST A NORMAL ROMANTIC SITUATION”

No

So marriage seems to not be the issue, that right there.

Whats the reason we let infertile atheist heteros get married

So they don’t waste anyone else’s time and exit the gene pool.

So you’re saying that every gay character was a walking soup box that would rant about how they were totally valid and weren’t just another character with some gimmick to them?
