I think this is supposed to be funny or witty. Really? If you think the criticisms of the sexual orientation poll are about oppression you're pretty ignorant and should read more carefully.
The inclusiveness of genders isn't the problem, just like if this poll were official it's ridiculous to...
Had you read the conversation thoroughly you would see that we acknowledge we don't know the intent of the OP, and no one is claiming he intentionally excluded orientations. It's the attitudes like you're presenting "Well of course it's heterosexual vs the rest, they're a majority!!!!!" that...
The wording isn't controversial. If you want a poll that only gathers how many people are heterosexual vs not then that's on you. It's a pointless poll that gives absolutely no information worth anything. As I said before, the majority of posters are heterosexual. No surprise, the majority of...
LOL! :areyoucra
So when you speak about religion, are you saying only one religion is represented? You said when polls on religion are conducted they never include your religion, you haven't stated whether the poll only allows one viewpoint. Which is the argument being made.
No one has debated that, the only argument has been that heterosexuality seems to be the only orientation represented. Why is every orientation except heterosexuality lumped into one category? It doesn't make sense.
Off topic? My posts have nothing to do with sexual orientation? There is nothing wrong with challenging the views of certain people. Your arrogance is just funny.
Why do you disagree with the statement? You think people want to be offended?
You know exactly what was meant, they aren't referring to the poll they are referring to the people who are being dismissed by ignorant people.
Really? Why is heterosexuality the only orientation represented then...
If you had a point you would have already made it. I don't know what you mean by "showing my true colors so quickly", as I am very opinionated on certain issues. Does it matter that I'm new?
To compare preferences of drinks to sexuality is just laughable. Do you really not see the difference?
If you make a poll asking the SEXUAL ORIENTATION OF FORUM MEMBERS and only want to know who is heterosexual then your poll isn't named correctly. The data you receive means pretty much...
Could you elaborate on your point? I would love to hear it.
I have read the OP's responses, and they have been pretty unconvincing. The only answer I'm getting is ignorance.
Edit: Also, why don't you answer my question. Do you think there are any similarities between pansexuality and asexuality?
Why comment at all if you're going to make sexuality a joke? If the only sexual orientations were "straight" and "not straight" I would understand people being dismissive of people feeling offended. The fact is, this poll does not ask anything about peoples sexuality other than do they fit the...
I haven't claimed to know your intent when you made the poll. It's your non-chalant attitude to people who think this poll is a bit ridiculous that made me comment. In no way am I trying to imply that you intentionally excluded orientations. I don't believe you did.
Either way, it's pretty odd...
