Do you support a public LGBT Subforum?

[Saint Frankenstein]

We have the Rainbow Room but that's private and not very active. There is also really nowhere for transgender/transsexual topics to go and that leaves me feeling very left out and confused as to where to put those topics and so they end up all over the place. So a general subforum for LGBT topics seems like the best fix for this.

What say you?

I was kinda surprised to find out we didn't already have one.

I concur. It is surprising and long overdue.

Well, just as some people said, Capitalism could be discussed in Conservative DIR I would say LGBT stuff could be discussed in Liberal DIR.

Since LGBT people hold a variety of political opinions, no. I'm not a liberal, for one. Funnily, the Capitalist subforum could go in either the Conservative or Liberal forums.

So now you equate someone's sexuality and identity as a person with economics?
Really?

 

[Phil25]

Well since there was opposition to a Capitalism DIR, I think someone has to oppose LGBT DIR, and since I am not a supporter of LGBT stuff, I might as well oppose it.
Well anyway opposition is useless, because if LGBT DIR has enough supporters it would be created. But since I dont have much to do right no, I will oppose it

Thats what you did(kind of). When you said Capitalism could be discussed in Conservative DIR.

If you oppose it, just don't post there. I don't oppose the Capitalist DIR existing. I'm just not going to post there. We do need a place to post transgender/transsexual topics, though, either way.

Why does one have to do with the other?

 

[CynthiaCypher]

I absolutely support this!

 

[Phil25]

Its called Tit for Tat

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

Its called Tit for Tat

How is it "tit for tat" when I voted in support of creating the Capitalist DIR even though I hate capitalism?

Riiiight....

I still don't see how proposing discussing economics as part of a political system somehow equates with comparing someone's identity with a political system.

I'm glad we could have this mature conversation.

OK if you say so. I understand that LGBTs have the right to DIR.
Even though I am not a supporter of LGBT stuff.

Oh, sorry. I thought you opposed it.

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

Even though I am not a supporter of LGBT stuff.

Then vote in favor of being created and then don't post there when it's created. It's not difficult.

Sure, why shouldn't such a DIR exist?

Although I don't think the Rainbow Room would be inappropriate for Transgender issues either. It is supposed to be LGBT, isn't it?

But of course, a public area is also warranted.

Yeah, trans topics can be discussed in the Rainbow Room but it's private and pretty dead, as I said. There needs to be something on the public board.
