Poor Straight Ppl

[u/Biscuitarian23]

[u/trentreynolds]

These guys think about gay people more than gay people do

[u/WiggyStark → u/trentreynolds]

The Venn diagram of people who think of pedos, trans, and gay people more than those in the groups themselves converges on conservatives.

[u/an_actual_T_rex → u/WiggyStark]

Conservative politicians inhabit the same circle as pedophiles.

[u/Yuzumi → u/an_actual_T_rex]

Also members of "The Church".

I know there are good churches out there. I also know that so much harm and abuse has come out of institutions that are designed to keep people under control.

[u/cannykas → u/an_actual_T_rex]

This is a Minnesota state senator who had a bill brought to the state senate floor about Trump Derangement Syndrome being a mental illness. The bill was brought to the floor the day he was arrested.

[u/Comprehensive_End679 → u/cannykas]

It didn't surprise me he was a pedo... the guy's probably jealous of the orange turds visits to epstein Island. I hope someone with a brain and spine replaces that dude

[u/Yuzumi → u/trentreynolds]

One of the things I like to say now "If you think about gay sex every time you see a rainbow then that sounds like a you problem".

I am both trans and gay and nether are on my mind at this point nearly as much as it seems to be on bigots minds

[u/EcstaticRush1049 → u/Yuzumi]

Is being trans and gay basically just being straight with extra steps?

[u/Winterstyres → u/EcstaticRush1049]

In their minds, the bigots I mean, being gay and trans is not only a choice, but it is one that they make just to be difficult. As if the entire LGBTQ? community exists only to be difficult, for the sheer joy of being Contrarian.

[u/w_t_f_justhappened → u/Winterstyres]

They only think it’s a choice because they are actively choosing to be straight instead of accepting that they find the same sex attractive.

[u/Winterstyres → u/w_t_f_justhappened]

Good point, explains the rage also.

[u/CellaSpider → u/EcstaticRush1049]

Only if you ignore the part where they’re not straight.

[u/Scruffersdad → u/trentreynolds]

As a gay, I can tell you it’s true!

[u/jared10011980 → u/trentreynolds]

Reassuring they couldn't find a human to model this Tshirt.

[u/Street_Peace_8831]

As a gay man, I’ve never met gays that are mad or upset that straight people exist. I’ve never met one that wasn’t fully aware that most of us have straight parents and love them.

[u/translove228 → u/Street_Peace_8831]

I don’t mind straight people, after all my friend is straight, but so they really have to shove their straightness down our throats? 

😏

[u/PeanutFreeMeatLoaf → u/translove228]

I saw a man and a woman holding hands at the mall today, and I have no problem with that, but do you really have to do it out in the open? Save it for the bedroom.

[u/EatsCrackers → u/PeanutFreeMeatLoaf]

My son came to me the other day and told me he has a crush…. On a girl!

How do I make him give up this disgusting selfishness and come back to the path of Our True Lord, Elton John?

[u/CadenVanV → u/Street_Peace_8831]

They’re literally the ones mad that gay people exist and are happy

[u/koviko → u/Street_Peace_8831]

💯 The worst that straight people "face" is jokes, and every one of those jokes is just a mirror of the rhetoric non-straight people face non-jokingly.

[u/an_actual_T_rex → u/Street_Peace_8831]

And like the odd queer person who legit hates straight people does not wield the institutional power to oppress them.

[u/butterfunke → u/Street_Peace_8831]

The only time I've ever experienced this IRL was one drunk asshole at a drag bar who got up in my face to tell me "this place isn't for you, you don't belong here" before his friends dragged him away and profusely apologised to me. I must have a noticeably not-gay aura, idk. The point is that these people do exist, and places like r/ AreTheStraightsOK are full of them.

Unfortunately it's just human nature that people will generalise based on the loud 1% of queer people who were nasty to them, because they don't remember the 99% who they didn't have any interaction with.

[u/GoldWallpaper → u/butterfunke]

I'm a straight guy with a lot of gay/lesbian friends and family, so I frequent gay bars, often with my SO. Nobody's ever been a dick about it, but I can say one thing: A lot of gay bars aren't friendly to bachelorette parties because -- and I've witnessed this -- they can be annoying af.

[u/Biffingston → u/GoldWallpaper]

To be fair, women going to a space where gay men congregate and then making it all about them really is a dick move. Especially in the era when gays couldn't marry.

[u/KingSpork → u/Street_Peace_8831]

Yes, the “pride” is not the problem with this shirt , it’s the attitude of “you owe us!” which is hallmark of boomer Karen Trumpist dipshits everywhere.

[u/weaboomemelord69 → u/Street_Peace_8831]

I’ve been waiting my entire life for someone to say this to me because I was not a result of straight sex (sperm donor baby)

[u/Sol-Blackguy]

If you're thinking that much about gay people, I got some news for you

[u/gleaming-the-cubicle]

Lame. Cringey. Embarrassing.

None of these words does justice to what I'm looking at

Does English not have the correct words or do I just not know them?

[u/tuckman496 → u/gleaming-the-cubicle]

None of these words does justice

Been feeling this a lot these days

[u/WiggyStark → u/gleaming-the-cubicle]

English doesn't have them, maybe try German?

[u/Yankee_Jane → u/WiggyStark]

Quatsch, schlecht, verarschen, assi, bescheuert...

[u/WiggyStark → u/Yankee_Jane]

Those are all easily translated to generic English words. We need one of those 20 letter mothers that translate into a whole phrase, like 'my asshole clenched so hard it ate my whole being upon reading that'.

[u/Yankee_Jane → u/WiggyStark]

Yeah I am not a native speaker, but German is the best for compound words.

Once I didn't know the word for colander, so I asked for "das Nudelbleibtwaßergeht" and got laughed at but they knew what I meant.

Not sure I could accurately create one out of what you described though.

[u/WiggyStark → u/Yankee_Jane]

Lol I was wholly exaggerating with my example, but you got the drift. I only know a few words and phrases because of a friend, but sometimes his mom will throw me something totally random and have me guess what it means based on what I do know about the linguistics of German.

[u/JayTNP]

Straight pride arguments are the same as white pride arguments. Dumb as fuck. "Why isn't there a White Entertainment Television!!!!?"

[u/Spiderteacup → u/JayTNP]

It was called segregation lmao

[u/SummerFableSimp → u/JayTNP]

Really wonder what shirt poster and commenter would think about white people wanting a white history month. Or white version of Juneteenth but to remember the whites who died to give them their freedom. Like straight pride, white pride, and cishet pride is just about being the majority who already benefits from a society built by them.

[u/HOLEDESTROYER69420]

Checkmate: my biological dad is gay

[u/zarfle2 → u/HOLEDESTROYER69420]

Cool ✊

And, these straight pride fools also forget that plenty of lesbians give birth using donor sperm.

[u/Ameren → u/zarfle2]

And with ongoing R&D into in vitro gametogenesis (IVG) and artificial wombs, we could easily end up with a future where there are zero differences in reproductive outcomes for everyone because literally any two adults would be able to have a child together.

But even then, I'm sure the straight pride people would find some new way to feel superior to everyone else.

[u/thebond_thecurse → u/zarfle2]

Gay people who realized/came out after already having a kid in a hetero marriage, gay sperm/egg donors to straight couples, gay best friend sperm donor to lesbian couple! (and visa versa), two queer friends who just decided to start a family together without a romantic entanglement, just ... bisexual people??? The bigots' world is a very, very small and supremely uninteresting place. 

[u/zarfle2 → u/thebond_thecurse]

Well said - cheers

[u/just_a_person_maybe → u/HOLEDESTROYER69420]

My great grandfather was gay, and societal expectations and stigma made him marry my great grandmother and hide it for decades, which led to a lot of bitterness, adultery, and abuse. They were really miserable, awful people and sometimes I wonder if a little acceptance and therapy could have changed that. Instead, they got to raise some miserable, awful people who in turn either abused their own kids or disappeared to become depressed, traumatized hermits. The generational trauma caused by those two's shit affected me and how I was raised, and I never even met them.

So... yeah, forcing my ancestors to be "straight" really didn't work out that well.

[u/HOLEDESTROYER69420 → u/just_a_person_maybe]

I empathize with you. A similar thing happened with my father and mother. I no longer have any contact with my mother, and my relationship with my dad is fine now that he’s open and has been living his full truth authentically but it doesn’t absolve him from the infidelity and abuse and neglect. Fuck heteronormativity.

[u/Mrdean2013]

Straight pride is the gayest shit ever.

I bet these people unironically think being gay is a choice.

[u/BlueEyesXP → u/Mrdean2013]

What's wrong with being the gayest?

[u/No-Cartographer2512 → u/BlueEyesXP]

Because that means they outperformed me

[u/wwwdotbummer → u/No-Cartographer2512]

Get back on the gay grind, homie.

[u/cartoonsarcasm → u/No-Cartographer2512]

Your flair is fantastic.

[u/thelocalheatsource → u/No-Cartographer2512]

I see you know of BSTCHLD too

[u/Max_Trollbot_ → u/BlueEyesXP]

Being gay is just life.  Being the gay-est takes commitment.

[u/Mr_Pombastic → u/BlueEyesXP]

Homophobia is so ingrained in our culture that it's even used as an insult by progressives.

[u/x_ray_visions → u/BlueEyesXP]

The gayer the better!!!

[u/radjinwolf → u/Mrdean2013]

What’s worse is that they feel so oppressed or othered that they feel the need to wear this kind of stuff, but it goes right over their heads why the LGBTQ community has and needs Pride.

They’re feeling the tiniest crumb of what is essentially made-up oppression and they have to act out while not having even an iota of self awareness that what they’re feeling is just the smallest, most minuscule feeling that any queer person has.

[u/an_actual_T_rex → u/Mrdean2013]

Nah if it was gay they wouldn’t be so dripless.

I think bisexual people are most likely to think being gay is a choice, because we can choose lol. Their problem is that they're too scared to actually be themselves so they hide their fear behind a wall of anger, rage, and hate.

[u/Karhak]

I'm calling into question the heterosexuality of people who are aggressively straight

[u/Rappy28]

The surest way to tell a picture is AI slop isn't hands, the conspicuous lack of them or incoherent backgrounds, it's that a right-winger posted it because no existing picture could illustrate their stupid disingenuous point.

[u/1nGirum1musNocte]

Wait until they find out gay people aren't sterile

[u/traumatized90skid → u/1nGirum1musNocte]

And bis exist?

[u/x_ray_visions → u/traumatized90skid]

Am bi, can confirm.

[u/EatsCrackers → u/x_ray_visions]

Seconded.

Pan Vers Switch: All Things To All People

[u/Spiderteacup → u/traumatized90skid]

bi erasure is such an oddly specific phenomena

[u/ColtAzayaka → u/Spiderteacup]

"Noooo! YOU HAVE TO PICK ONE 😡😡😡😡🔥🔥🔥🔥🤬🤬🤬"

Some people get so angry over it, you just gotta laugh at the hill they've picked to die on.

[u/EatsCrackers → u/ColtAzayaka]

Right? “Of all the hills, this hill, this one right here, is the one you wanna carve your tomb into? Really? I mean, it’s your choice, buuuuuuut….”

[u/ColtAzayaka → u/EatsCrackers]

"mom! come look at the picture i drew for you!"

"not now sweetie mommy's having a facebook argument"

[u/BlackBoiFlyy]

I would love to know what these people think the definition of hate is. Cause this is like hearing someone venting about their abuser and then calling them "full of hatred" for it. 

[u/tuckman496 → u/BlackBoiFlyy]

From what I’m hearing, as long as you don’t say point blank “I hate gay people,” you’re not spreading hatred. You can say immigrants are “poisoning the blood of our country” but that’s definitely not hate!

[u/PhazonZim]

I've met quite a number of straight women who are pretty unhappy about being straight on account of the kind of guys who prattle on about "straight pride".

Those same straight pride people really, really seem to hate women, for some reason

[u/Opera_haus_blues]

This graphic has always made me giggle. I thank modern science for my existence! I wasn’t made by straight people, I was made in a petri dish. These people truly have the tiniest minds in the world

[u/tomjone5]

Yeah, this image just screams happy as can be.

[u/BoneHugsHominy]

If I ever saw some dude wearing that shirt, I'd immediately suspect he's thinking about some gay dude ramming his homosexuality down his throat.

[u/notRadar_ → u/BoneHugsHominy]

mmmmfffghghhgh,,

[u/-V3R7IGO-]

I hate how the new aesthetic of fascism is Ghibli-esqe AI

[u/LeiningensAnts → u/-V3R7IGO-]

Everything humans love and find joy in, the Party seeks to pervert and despoil. They do it with a smile, because they know it causes pain.

[u/cloud3514]

So, I'm ace. And until I started HRT, I was, as far as I'm aware, completely fertile. And even with the HRT, my doctor made a point to offer the option to freeze my sperm, which I turned down because I hate kids.

And that's me as an ace trans person. To say nothing of bi or pan people who are still have het relationships because they're not just attracted to the same gender. They don't stop being queer just because their relationship looks straight.

[u/ToastyJackson]

The like count of 52k being overwhelmingly “like” and “love” reactions calls into question the idea that any significant amount of “fruit loops” are upset about this post.

[u/hesperoidea]

very weird, seeing as my dad is bisexual. which straight person am I thanking for my existence again? lol

[u/Amelora → u/hesperoidea]

My son has one bi enby parent and one lesbian trans parent, no straights involved

[u/Rose_of_St_Olaf]

.... they do realize people who aren't straight can have child and be parents... right?

this is just embarrassing

[u/zarfle2]

The same people who will also post, without any hint of self awareness how much they resent the LGBTQ+ agenda being pushed down their throats and "why don't you people just shut up about it?"

[u/Komi29920]

Just yesterday I got downvoted in the JustUnsubbed subreddit for saying straight people don't face any systemic oppression, and I'm straight. Some straight people really do wanna be oppressed badly.

[u/active-tumourtroll1]

I am bi I literally haven't a single friend over 4 continents that isn't cis and hetero I don't know why these people think we are some sort of powerful group. In my current workplace only 1 person before me that they knew was transwoman.

[u/model3224]

I'll have you know i am a HARDCORE HETERO.

I spent all my time thinking about DIFFERENT WAYS NON-HETERO PEOPLE CAN FUCK.

[u/Destriod777]

Last time I checked, bisexual people can still have kids

[u/Spiderteacup]

The funniest part to me is that no one is actually stopping them from organising a straight pride event. They just won’t do it cuz they know it would result in a weird circlejerk for a bunch of neonazis. That whole ass event would end up with like five people showing up max.

These people will bitch and complain about it under every pride posts in june with some reactionary bs about how it should be ‘veterans month’ or ‘mental health awareness month’ instead. As if two things can’t exist at once but it’s obvious those are nothing more than cheap talking points and nothing they actually care about.

They want the all glamour and the fun parts of the queer experience like the parties and “special treatment” but none of the discrimination that actually comes with it and get all pissy when they realise they can’t have it both ways. Ofc they’ll think they’re the good guys every time and think they’re being subversive as if they don’t represent the overall status quo of it all (trying to suppress and erase queer existence and all that jazz).

[u/LostRams]

Imagine how pathetic you have to be to actually think this way. It’s almost unbelievable.

[u/blueflloyd]

It's hard to imagine my life being so empty that I'd spend time on posting "Straight Pride" shit. What a loser.

[u/1994californication]

Should an abused child thank their abusive parents for existing? Newsflash asshole Hetero breeders are given enough deference in our society.

[u/gaF-trA]

A man named Bryson is into “straight pride”? Shocker.

[u/FireDragon737]

Do they believe that the sexual organs of a gay person just shrivel up and are rendered unusable just cause they're gay? They truly don't realize that yes, gay people can indeed reproduce. Believe it or not, your sexuality is not a prerequisite for reproduction and there are people who owe their existence to someone who isn't straight.

[u/bytegalaxies]

as much as this person sucks and is being an ass, "every fruit loop in the box" got a slight nose exhale out of me

[u/LemonVillage7]

He’s acting like Bi people can’t reproduce

[u/Haxorz7125]

“Silence is golden, duct tape is silver” middle school vibes

[u/justsayfaux]

Who's gonna tell them gay people can reproduce as well?

[u/ColtAzayaka]

"Gay people are so hateful" yeah somehow I'm not surprised that this has been their experience. I think their feelings are being mirrored back at them.

[u/Embalmed_Darling]

“Straight pride” is the same as “white lives matter” it’s just reactionary bullshit

[u/Sindigo_]

The new chat gpt model is so easily recognizable.

[u/novazemblan]

The psychology behind this is anger and jealousy at the boosterism given to minority groups. They want them back being denigrated but are aware it is socially taboo to do so, so they couch it in terms like this instead.

[u/CouchHam]

Yeah so straight and happy. Spending time on Facebook obsessing over people who aren’t straight. Suuuure you’re so happy.

[u/wafflesthewonderhurs]

last pride someone in the parade (i think from some kind of ally group?) had a bigass sign that had that famous line on it

"STRAIGHT WOMEN ARE PROOF SEXUALITY ISN'T A CHOICE"

[u/APettyBitch]

You know what, this is sorta right, I should thank my older sister for convincing my mum that kids are easy and manageable.

Not sure I know that many other straight people now that I think about it, which is kinda awkward.

[u/cartoonsarcasm]

Bryson Gray is a twat.

[u/berserkzelda]

This looks like AI

[u/Ju5tAnAl13n]

Translation: "I kissed a guy and feel guilty about it."

[u/Longjumping-Log923]

I fucking hate these people bro help

[u/BleedingHeart1996]

Who’s going to tell them about bisexual and pansexual people?

[u/Kineth]

Oh yeah, telling people to bend the knee goes over really well.

[u/amILibertine222]

Soooo, thank you parents?

[u/OscarTheGrouchsCan]

Why are these people so obsessed with gay people?

[u/TheLeshii]

Today I learned that gay people can't have kids... Who knew

[u/kayforpay]

Checkmate librul I don't thank anyone for my existence, I don't want to exist

[u/MSochist]

Post has 52k likes: "Damnnn those fruity loops are MADDDD"

[u/SideWinder18]

I would have much preferred not existing at all so I won’t be thanking anyone

[u/UN47]

Just as true, all of the cruel, evil, sadistic people on earth were also created by straight people.

[u/Aggressive-Story3671]

Heterophobia doesn’t exist. You could make a terrible arguement for why “reverse racism” and “reverse sexism” exist (they don’t) but what argument can be made for “heterophobia”

[u/mstrss9]

I didn’t ask to be born sooooo

Never mind that you don’t have to be straight to procreate

[u/cannykas]

The red hat just makes the shirt so much worse. Because you know it isn't about straight pride, it's about hating LGBTQ. For existing. Why do these miserable clowns have to be so fucking dramatic?!

[u/SopieMunkyy]

But I was born in a petri dish. Straight people had nothing to do with that.

[u/Professional_Taste33]

I like how even the ai image doesn't look happy to be there.

[u/Biffingston]

TIL that as soon as you realize you're gay you become infertile.

[u/LeotasNephew]

As much as these "Straight Pride" jamokes love to brag about being able to pop out kids with reckless abandon, they sure are quiet about all the ones they dump into the foster system.

[u/Hori-kosa]

"chill anime guy" My neckbeard tracker is signaling a presence!

[u/TinyCleric]

They dont get that we arent mad that they're straight, we're mad they make it their entire personality

Fruit loop...boy what is this 1994

[u/31November]

You don’t have to be straight to have a baby. Even ignoring bi or pan people, gay people can have children

[u/ChaosRainbow23]

These people's utterly self-centered mindset is terrifying.

They TRULY believe that there's no more systemic bigotry or oppression happening.

[u/Pokaponz]

of course its ai "art", this people always lack of talent!

[u/R4PHikari]

I'm a radical leftist activist and literally never has anyone in my circles hated on me for being (mostly) straight, except in an obviously joking manner that even my neurodivergent ass could easily identify as such.

[u/BountyHntrKrieg]

Can I get some of this rent free real estate?

Also side note, thanks to the existence of trans people there are actually gay couple out there that can make babies too! Who knows. Maybe you gotta thank the transbian/lesbian couple for the strapping young man they made at his straight wedding!

Where's my thank a gay couple shirt!?

[u/ialsohaveadobro]

I grew up near a dam. I fished there. I liked it. I'm straight.

[u/napalmnacey]

Yes, because we queers never reproduce with other human beings. What, those two noisy rage beasts? They budded off me in the night and I was forced to nurture them so that they did not consume the world with their chaos. Some might assume they are children, but I am queer so apparently I lack the ability to create them.

[u/HeywoodJaBlessMe]

The shirt is fine, the comment is cringe.

[u/LouisWillis98 → u/HeywoodJaBlessMe]

The shirt is also cringe

[u/nottalkinboutbutter → u/HeywoodJaBlessMe]

Gay pride exists as opposition to oppression. Pride in standing strong and being yourself in the face of people trying to deny your right to exist as you are.

Shirts like this exist because of straight people who see this and feel upset that a minority group is getting recognized and are afraid that they will lose their power to continue that oppression against them.

One exists out of protest against oppression. The other exists out of protest against protest against oppression.

[u/HeywoodJaBlessMe → u/nottalkinboutbutter]

I think it is a joke. This is not some savage attack on anybody.

The inability to distinguish between real disagreement and harmless lark is a huge problem for the American left.

[u/nottalkinboutbutter → u/HeywoodJaBlessMe]

Bryson Gray is obsessed with LGBTQ people. He makes songs about how much he hates them constantly. There's no joke here, he's psychotically obsessed with how much he hates them.

[u/1994californication → u/HeywoodJaBlessMe]

The whole "straight pride" is a homophobic dog whistle, it has the same energy as white pride.
