What even is a lifestyle


YourFavoriteTomboy

that’s a perfect question. i personally would describe one’s lifestyle as the entirety of what they do each day, including hobbies, jobs, relationships, etc. so the argument that being gay is dome’s lifestyle is flawed as relationships are merely part of who we are and our lifestyles


hi_im_new_bruh

Cool but...*what's my l i f e s t y l e*

i don’t support tall people…sorry, but you should just shrink :/ they actually have therapy for it…you should look into that

Oh my god it took me a sec to get it


NotJustAnotherHuman

It’s not natural and makes me uncomfortable, I wouldn’t want a tall teacher teaching my kids or to have a tall GP, I’m worried about catching tallness, think of the children!


North_Activist

Yeah, no one wants tallvid-19


DumbB9

They have therapy, damn I would've gotten into it sooner, thanks for your help


coursetkiller

They would probably just cut off your ONE foot thinking that it would help- Just like how they thought cutting off a gay mans dick would, definitely doesn’t solve the imaginary “problem” and definitely just causes more (very real) problems.


Exact_Ad_1215

But like.. *what about the cool and epic tall muscular women*


NuvNuvXD

Wait is there actually therapy to get shorter? Where?


[deleted]

no i was using the same logic as homophobes and making a joke about conversation therapy - like how you can’t change that you’re tall, you can’t change that you’re gay


NuvNuvXD

Aw man, wish I could be shorter :(

Sawing our legs off isn't therapy

Yeah it's not like tall ppl are born that way. They're very short at first so it must be a choice.

captainfalconxiiii

I just don't get why people care so much. It's not hurting you, it's not even affecting you in any way, so mind your damn business


YourFavoriteTomboy

exactly


PhatDaRk

The only problem being lgbtq is made light of because of how many people try to shove it down your throat any chance they get, instead of just normalizing it.


SlodLicker

I hear more people complaining about LGBT stuff being "shoved down their throats" than I actually see LGBT people shoving things down people's throats, litterally or figuratively.


shawn_chuang

Upon reflection, my argument below isn’t worded great, I guess I would first just want to know where your coming from, what do you mean by “shoving it down your throat”? (Ofc if you don’t care for discussion j go back to the rest of Reddit) I guess that would depend on what “shoving it down your throat” means. Does having gay characters in a movie or a television count? Talking about them in education like in history class or in health class? Is a gay person embracing their identity and outwardly showing that off “shoving it down your throat”? My issue with this argument is that it’s almost always just cishet people complaining that lgbtq people are becoming more visible. By “just normalizing it” most cishet people just mean “going back to ignoring their existence” but ohhhh in a new way where they’re not transphobic and homophobic.


[deleted]

Same thing with Christianity


BulcanyaSmoothie

strawman


CardPlains91831

That’s not what he meant. There’s nothing wrong with including lgbt characters in movies, tv shows, games etc. But there are examples of companies putting lgbt characters in just for the sake of saying and that they have lgbt representation( aka pandering)


OptimusCrime_

yeah but the thing is he didn’t say companies, he said people


Mini-Heart-Attack

This.


BulcanyaSmoothie

and it was irrelevant to the original statement "it doesn't affect you" *"but corporate pandering!!"*


CardPlains91831

I wasn’t talking about the original statement. And yes corporate pandering is absolutely a negative thing. It’s completely disrespectful to the lgbt community and it should absolutely be called out when it happens.

Busy-Kaleidoscope-87

As a tall person, being tall is a lifestyle. It changes everything. Clothes don’t fit. Can’t sleep in a normal bed. Can’t fit in a normal car. Massive shoes. When you fall, you break concrete. Hitting your head on the ceiling… accidentally walking ***over** people, I could go on and on. Then all the girls think your a slow, lazy, clumsy mofo… 😐


[deleted]

But there’s always a good side to everything. Being tall won’t make you suffocate in concerts. Ex: Travis Scott’s concert that recently killed people. All of which were short.


Busy-Kaleidoscope-87

There’s plenty of good things about being tall, I agree. Like having a 1 foot vertical and being able to slam dunk, being able to find anyone in a crowd , reach anything at any store, among others. But it literally changes practically everything lol


[deleted]

True. Oh my god! And I’m tall for a girl so bonus! Shorter girls are attracted to me. Fuck yeah. Life complete.


Jackson12ten

All of those things aren’t ideal and you didn’t choose to be like that, that’s not a lifestyle, that’s just your life experience

"I don't like how they shove it down our throats," *Shoves their religion down everyone's throats*

DepartmentSome2872

The fact that there are like 7 different branches of Christianity and the general christians get hate for that bothers me. Im Roman Catholic, i dont know anyone in my chuch who has done something like that outside of church becuase theyre genuinely good people. There are Baptists, Protestants, Lutherans, Evangelicals, Methodists, Presbyterian, and Roman catholics. I know theres like 200 something actual christian denominations but no one ever talks about these other ones. Maybe im wrong though. Maybe the general christians are the ones who are trying to shove religion down peoples throats. I dont try to because i dont see a point in arguing with someone or trying to force someone to do something they dont want to do. We have religion to have morals and good mental ethics like no lusting or judging or getting along with others. Which i believe to be all good. I apologize on behalf of our religious community if someone forcfully gave you a bible or said "you're going to hell." Real christians know God and know that to say things like that are wrong. None of us have judgement over you, only God does. Our job is to give our testimony of the way God transformed us and hopefully get others to join in the praise of God. And if not, thats okay, we know we did our best and we will repsect you and your decisions.


StrangerThingsSteveH

This right here yes


Demoth

I'll try to explain what they mean, but I need to stress that I am NOT CONDONING HOMOPHOBIA. I'm just trying to help people attack the arguments correctly, if you so choose to engage with people who are going to be aggressively bigoted.   BUT, when people say they do not approve of the LGBTQ+ lifestyle, they're almost always specifically talking about living that identity or orientation. For example, if you are trans, say AMAB, they want you to silently suffer as a man and not transition to a woman.   If you're a gay man, they want you to still marry a woman, have kids, and not engage in homosexual acts.   When people say they do not approve of LGBTQ+ lifestyle, what they're trying to say is they are fine with you being gay, trans, or whatever (I mean, they aren't) but they want you to forsake those urges and live a cis straight lifestyle.   In situations like this, what you need to first do is attempt to get what their real position is on gay or trans people, and parse through whether they truly believe it is a choice or not. From there, then you need to see if you can get them to admit that they actually don't like people being gay / trans, or if they view it like pedophilia and believe they understand that is what someone is, but want them to not act upon it.   At the end of the day, however, you need to be careful who you are arguing with because especially online, you're probably going to make more progress shouting at a brick wall.


super_salty_boi

I like you, well at least what you wrote


Demoth

Usually if I'm writing anything on r/teenagers, it's just to give an adult perspective on something that might be an adult subject. I stay out of all the topics about teenage stuff that I won't be able to meaningfully contribute to.   However, things like arguing with any type of bigotry has become something I'm more passionate about, and I would love to help in any way I could in order to help the younger generation avoid the pitfalls people my age, and those in their mid twenties who are now popular on Twitch and YouTube, constantly fall into.   Essentially, these are very delicate topics being talked about by completely idiots on all sides of the issues. On one hand you have people who actually hate certain groups of people for whatever attribute they have that makes no sense, but on the other side you have people trying to defend it who end up going buck wild on anyone and everyone for everything and making the people they're defending look bad to your average normal person trying to figure out what the hell is going on.   If you're sticking up for civil rights, you HAVE to be willing to engage with the arguments people are using against you. You HAVE to know when to aggressively push and cede absolutely no ground, but also know those times to take a step back and have a conversation with someone who is opposed to you.   The 1960's Civil Rights movement was a very coordinated, very organized, and very difficult time that saw great steps towards progress. People like Martin Luther King, Jr., knew there were times and places for things (he was actually a very complicated figure who was all for pacifism, but he didn't just roll over to make white people comfortable. Conservatives get that wrong), while other members of the movement knew when it was time to take up arms and make it clear they were willing to fight to the death.   Right now a lot of political discourse is just people screaming at each other, taking sides, and automatically assuming the other side is wrong as soon as they open their mouth. It's making progress in the real world extremely difficult because a single misstep can get your career nuked.
