“No, don’t worry, Mr. Conservative. I’m male, she’s female, your norms aren’t being broken yet.”
“…Yeh, but partner implies she’s your equal. That don’t sit right.”

Partner sounds more serious than boyfriend or girlfriend anyway.

Very good example, thank you, whenever someone says "partner" I immediately assume they're at least somewhat woke.

I do this. Someone called me out for pretending to be gay. Stolen valor!

I was just like. Sorry? I tried to be inclusive. Oh well, can't win 'em all.

Reminds me of how someone posted that he likes to tell people that he's not gay but his husband is. And then watch the reaction.

Another white not very masculine male here - which I think is every bit as normal as being a woman who isn't an insanely hot babe. It's weird when things that are almost fringe become unattainable standards for a vast majority who really have no reason to feel inadequate.

Yes! Normalize this!

Fuck yeah. Nice

Now I'm thinking about making badges that say "Assigned Child At Birth".

This took me a while

it's like giving them an all tomato.

That's usually when I use my escape goat.

They may be a community watcher, or they may be British. Further investigation required.

I've never seen "Community" and I've never lived in Great Britain but even I know what "streets ahead" means.

I used to do the same thing. Then I decided to actually look up the saying and found out they are both pretty coming British phrases. I was very disappointed.

There was a whole campaign in the 90’s. The license plates were mostly lesbian coded, they included the Wizard of Oz cast or a certain lesbian tennis player, I think another tag line was “let’s go camping”. It was fun finding out about that because I had a lot of the National Geographic magazines that they had add pages in.

That seems like a big stretch of interpretation, no?

While there are definitely some non-nazi creationist, man, creationism is its own right wing agenda. Louise Agasazzi was a fucking racist piece of shit, and hated Darwinism because he thought all the "races" had a different origin. And then contemporary Creationists have their very ownMike Johnson who's an author on the Answers in Genesis website. And Answers in Genesis itself is a Nationalist alt right political organization. Creationism is just excuse for them to hate the gays, the trans, and the abortors.

So yeah, I guess they aren't technically Nazis...they are cut from the same cloth. They may not goose step, but they sure like carrying water for the goose steppers.

A creationist I worked with never used that word. He always described himself as "not an evolutionist" - I think he was trying to paint creationism as normal and evolution as the fringe.

Something not one sole nazi had in the Nuremberg trials according to a journalist investigating evil, so yeah a good sign IMO.
