No it's not.
You are the only linking it to LBGTI, not me.
Your my bro so I can't get mad at you but your the hurtful one trying to make me sound like I got something against the the alphabet label.
I'm fucking sick of people who know where I stand, avoiding a question they choose not to answer and deflecting it. Coming back with this consensual crap I'm not asking about or as you tried to do now by trying to make me something I'm not.
Fair go bro
The consensual “crap” is the essence of the answer though... that’s why I get frustrated people don’t see it... the question of whether this ssm debate will lead to debates pushing to normalise other unrelated and unhealthy relationships which revolve around manipulation and control is logically flawed because it compares situations that aren’t comparable and whether offence is intended or not, that comparison is hurtful to people.
I’m not saying I think you’re a hater. You know I consider you a mate and don’t think your harbour any hate in your heart. I’m not saying you’re being intentionally hurtful. I just don’t think any potential debates around bestiality or sexual abuse of minors should be in any way compared to this issue, because the very condition of adult consent that characterises healthy heterosexual and same sex relationships is absent in a case of either of those aforementioned abusive power dynamics.
I just think we should let LGTBI people have the moment they’ve been craving for a long time and leave any other potential debates til they arise.... keeping in mind many of these potential debates could be easily countered with the argument of adult consent.
Sorry dude, you have a right to ask whatever question you like. I don’t mean to flame you for it. It’s just that I do think that basic association does cause offence... and I think it’s also logically flawed due to those basic conditions of consent which exist in healthy same sex and herero relationships...
I’m not saying you’re trying to say gay relationships are abusive, but that’s the inference that is often drawn when that comparison is made, so I think it’s smart to ask is it constructive? Are those concerns really related? Can they be handled in other ways?
Just my two cents mate.
