Why are people NOT homophobic??

Religious people have been overrepresented for thousands of years for simply no good reason.Things are finally going the other way.God has never been observed by anyone in the entire history of humanity.Gay people however definitely exist. I can show you a gay person.Show me god and then maybe I'll have time for religious people.Until then I couldn't care less if someone insults someones silly beliefs in magic and superstition.

that statement is inherently false. literally anyone who even has the basic understanding of genes from GCSE understands that there is a significantly higher chance of recessive alleles being expressed if the parents both have one copy of the allele (which is much more likely to be the case if the parents are from the same parents, as there is less genetic diversity).

please read this before continuing to talk to me

also please explain why you're defending incest when it has literally nothing to do homosexuality? like.... how is that helping ur homophobic argument lmfao

So I'm abnormal for having an opinion that's different to the average user on TSR?

we’re coming to an age where being gay is the normal!

There is no place I have defended incest or even related it to homosexuality. If you read without your dogmatic aim, you would see how the incest issue came up.

you initially compared incestual relationships to gay relationships when "testing" PerhapsPhysio's statement in which they said "I think what's most confusing is why someone wouldn't support two PEOPLE in a relationship". clearly you were clearly expecting them to say that they disagree with incest and then ask what makes homosexuality so different, despite the fact the two things are incomparable.

also, you asked them if they would consider a "brother and sister" in a relationship. if you actually read your sources, they would be classed as "first degree", meaning they share 1/2 of their genes. this would give a 25% interbreeding coefficient, a 31.4% chance of death/severe defect and a 11.2-6.8% chance of a significant birth defect, if i read your sources correctly. of course the interbreeding coefficient decreases as they move further away in the family tree but your own example suggests a first degree relationship.

also thanks for clarifying that your other example is unrelated, that really does spare me bothering to respond to it ^_^

Okay, humour me by stating verbatim the comparison I made.

thanks for failing to respond to anything other than one tiny piece of my post
you do that quite a lot, don't you?

also you were clearly trying to test the limits of physio's "support of two people in a relationship", since you were trying to compare a homosexual relationship to a incestual and then ask if they supported the latter despite the obvious differences in either. i'm assuming you used incest because of it's abnormality, but that would suggest that you fail to understand homosexuality on any other basis except how atypical and "abnormal" it is.

I do that EVERYTIME someone chats crap by misrepresenting my statements/position. Ask @shadowdweller, she experienced such in full effect last week.

When you prove your nonsense, then other discussions can be had. I don't tolerate strawmans.

Now again: Humour me by stating verbatim the comparison I made.

Well, if you really insist on going that way, take the liberty to answer all three.

Which do you think is more represented on TV? LGBT or religious people?

1) In the number of people.

2) In the number of shows.

3) In the form of representation that expresses and pushes the community's image, consideration and issues on TV in a non-critical way.

actually, i wasn't misrepresenting your statements at all the relationship you used as an example was first degree, meaning that either you failed to actually read your sources or actually think i'm talking about incest in general, which is totally unrelated to this thread

anyway, i have to ask: why bring up such a relationship in response to physio's statement if not to compare it? explain your reasoning for essentially derailing the thread to go on a pointless argument on the inherent issues with incest?

I did experience you refusing to address points, yes.

The number of people is less clear, given that LGBT tend to be a single character or a few within a show, where religion is a central theme of more shows and as such there will be a considerably higher number within any one.

The number of shows again, it depends what we're talking; I'd actually argue that it's not a huge difference though, given that shows with an LGBT character will quite often have at least one religious character too.

Positive representation is still a huge issue within LGBt characters, so I'm not sure I'd say either has a particularly good expression of community image right now.

You experience my refusal to answer points or experienced me challenging your strawmans?

Be clear now, you know I don't like liars.

I experienced you refusing to answer points. There wasn't a strawman, however, just a misinterpretation of your initial post.
