Vapid, I'm asking you if the straight people in that country count as LGBT, and if the gay people there don't count as LGBT..


Do straight people count as lesbian, gay, bi or trans? no.


BZZZT there are straight trans people

internalized homophobia is not the same thing as homophobia


Explain how someone has internalised homophobia for liking guys only romantically and not sexually.

Mind you, they feel nothing romantic or sexual towards girls.

So it's not about the oppression? You said the definition relies on oppression. If straight people were being oppressed in a country, how would they NOT fall under LGBT according to the logic of yours I stated above?

were you oppressed for this?


I was asking ulmaridae how me liking men as a straight girl makes me homophobic. I'm not saying it makes me LGBT.




their homophobic comment was clearly a troll.
you're arguing that asexual people should be considered part of the LGBT // or are marginalized

honestly i have no clue what you're arguing.

ultimately certain things just don't need a movement behind them

this is one of those things that just don't need a movement.

please reread what i said..... it's completely in line with the meaning asexuality


I know it is...I literally said it was in my comment. Did you skim or something?


you made a case that heteroromantic asexuals should be considered lgbt. romantic attraction is completely relevant lmao


If you consider asexuals to be LGBT then they'd fall under it because they are, by definition, NOT sexual. Not having sexual urges = asexual.

Straight people are straight, and gay people are gay. The LGBT movement revolves around oppression for sexuality. In that world, it would be LGBTS or something (assuming the LGBT is oppressed too).

if you like someone romantically but not sexually you very clearly have a case of internalized homophobia or just the shіtties


Er, I'm a straight girl and I've liked 2 guys romantically without feeling anything sexual towards them. How does that make me have...internalized homophobia? That literally makes no sense whatsoever.

How can I be homophobic by liking men?

if you're straight(the heteroromantic type) but not physically attracted.... how is that special? a whole ton of people who don't id as ace already only care about emotional chemisty and are completely prone to cishet dumbаssery


Not feeling sexual urges makes one asexual by default. Asexuality has nothing to do with romantic feelings, just sexual feelings; however, someone can be both asexual and aromantic.

The distinction matters because romantic feelings aren't always tied to sexual urges. Haven't you ever liked someone romantically, but not sexually? It's like that, but permanent.

Being prone to "cishet dumbassery" has absolutely nothing to do with someone's orientation lmao. Many asexual people don't identify as such and that is fine.
