I wonder if it's a twisted attempt to "normalize" aro/ace people. Well, haters thread, I hate what Dark Sun said. What the heck man!! That’s so rude! May I make it clear that I love and accept aro/ace people and I was merely referencing bigots and their motives?

In that case I’m so so so so so so sorry for overreacting over a misunderstanding on my part. Thank you very much for clarifying, I was very upset mostly because I am ace.

No worries, it happens to all of us.
To clarify about what I meant beforehand: I've seen it happen time and time again where (usually) straights will make aro/ace people sexually promiscuous, likely in a bigoted attempt to alienate them and to please their own narrow world view. For example, I once encountered someone taking an official gay character and made them fall in love with a person of the opposite sex in a fanfic of theirs, and their claim was "now they're normal!". It's the bigot taking the person outside of their very small box (minority and oppressed groups) and putting them back in the box with them so the bigot is more comfortable. It's just... ugh.

Actually come to think of it, it may or may not have been a fanfic, and likely just a drawing with a story behind it. Anyway, yeah, it's just gross. I mean, how many times have we heard a parent say to their gay/trans/so forth child that they're going to pretend they're cis/straight/etc. to make them (the parent) feel more "comfortable"?

I hate shovelling mass amounts of snow. Also sudden, unexpected and heavy snowfall events. I hate that, too.
After putting up with a lot of snow this past month as well as about a couple years of major snow, I've told my family that this is the last year I'm going without a snowblower. Heavy snow makes my anxiety worse.

Edit: Or in general, people who fetishize a particular group of people. Like straight men fetishizing lesbians. (Which is another form of bigotry, as it turns out. Don't like them? Fetishize them! )

at first I thought: shipping a gay character with a character of the opposite sex isn't that bad. but when they act like that,(bolded area) now that pisses me off.

Give it another decade, and kids growing up will call their parents by their first names only because all alternatives will have been tarnished.
Also, words like "roleplay" have forever been sexualized in the eyes of many.

it's kinda wild to me how weird people are about it. in the south it is very common for daughters to call their fathers "daddy" well into adulthood. i still call mine that; my 62yro mom still call hers that. it's the people who automatically sexualize it who are the weirdos imo.

Language evolves (for better or worse). I think it's a case (in some places or with some people at least) that by default "daddy" or mom is synonymous with its sexual perversion in a similar light to "roleplay", at least in the sense that they don't want to be caught saying it or have their kid say it. It's similar to why phrases like "I'm coming" or "let them come" have been taken over by perverts, to where many non-perverts cannot detach the word from its "new" meaning.

on similar note. people who automatically sexualize furries. including other furries themselves.
I wont deny that there is a subset of the fandom that are into it (and i dont feel like arguing about their morals/if they should exist or not, thats a subject for another time in another place that probably goes over the line of forum appropriateness.) but there are also quite a lot who are only in it for the creative/oc making aspects or who are literally minors so you shouldn't assume it, and the people who will instantly hate furries for the actions of a few often take it too far. To the point it has resulted in people dying.

To add onto what I said above about social conditioning (presenting an example here), for many people it's similar if they have a favorite song, they hear it play in a movie or a show they absolutely hate, and whenever they hear that song, they cannot separate it from that source anymore, meaning it's effectively tarnished for them for good.
Edit: A better example would probably be if someone hears a remix of a song they like play in a store, and they seriously dislike it. They keep on being bombarded by this (remixed) song for months until they can no longer unhear it whenever they listen to the original.

To the point it has resulted in people dying. To branch off from this... broad generalizations from the mass public (always involving some degenerate or extreme example(s).)
Not going to get into this topic any further (for obvious reasons), but specifically in relation to furries here, I hate it when people point out truly degenerate and ILLEGAL material and go, "See? This is what furries are." Or people who make passing comments like, "I would never trust a furry around my pet."

I hate how my brain doesn't catch similar sounding or spelled words being applied in inappropriate situations. Like when I write "me" in place of "my", "about" instead of "around", "lime" instead of "like". It's always the same 6-7 handful of words as well, it's basically like muscle memory at this point and it gets me almost every single time lol.

That people not only just read the headlines anymore and nothing else, but I've seen a growing pie slice of people who don't even go that far and just seem to read only half the title and let their brain interpret the rest before typing their response in a comment section.

I swear all the people who say "don't shame people for what they're into!" are always weirdos. People are only shamed when the stuff they're into is weird. Like why are you even into that?? Being called a term that young children call their parents?? You're MAD weird if you're into that and I mean that with full disrespect
