Was that copied verbatim from the young republicans' rant on why gay pride needs to be ended or was that just a happy accident?
Wow, you're really good at beating that strawman. I make no difference between homo or heterosexual in this situation. I don't stop anyone from being a slut or a manwhore and I don't shame them either. You are just full of it.
A "strawman" argument is attacking a viewpoint not espoused by the person making the initial argument. Comparing the similarities in your argument with another group's bullshit a strawman is not. I addressed the points you directly made, come up with a better retort. Saying someone shouldn't be proud is shaming them even if it is not to their face. The point is that your viewpoint is as stuck up as the anti-gay movement in the 90s and that recycling the exact arguments they had then does not lend credence to it.
Anyone can be proud of anything, but that is not reality and never will be. Perhaps promiscuity will be normalized one day alongside polygamy and whatever else, but the consequences of that lifestyle exist right now and that's a fact.
The idea that someone shoudln't be proud of something because there are social consequences is bullshit. That is the whole fucking point of pride, the courage it takes to stand up to essentialism and bullshit and be proud despite it. That in spite of the same tired fearmongering you stand up and say that this is your lifestyle and you're not changing it for blowhards.
Those aren't even closely related to each other none the less this, but neither of those are things to be ashamed of either or not proud of so long as it's not toxic. "Emo kids" too, that's some LUG style nonsense.
This all reads like those cunty "what do they have to be proud of, why can't there be straight pride" trashspews, go fuck yourself and your essentialism.
These things (junkfood enthusiasm and emo cutters) are related in so far that they have averse consequences on your life and you can easily avoid them. It's your lifestyle choice unlike a sexuality or something you were born with.
First off cutting and eating disorders can very much be caused mental issues someone is born with, even promiscuity can be part of someone's sex addiction which as most addiction is not something someone can control. More importantly there is no false equivalency here, the line about homosexuality being a negative "lifestyle choice" with consequences like AIDS has always been a big assault on homosexuals. Beyond just being gay the idea of the "homosexual lifestyle" being something people should not be proud of is a huge issue. Even if these were all choices none of them are things that someone should be ashamed of anymore than anyone else. Why should someone be proud to have a stable single relationship? Or be proud of being vegan? Or of being good at videogames? Certainly all choices, many with destructive side effects, but saying any of these should not give someone pride so long as they don't view them toxically would be very insulting.
So please, go away with your false equivalencies and appeals to outrage culture. You can't turn this on me.
I have never heard someone use the term "outrage culture" who wasn't just trying to excuse being a cunt. The idea that someone's lifestyle is shameful because you disagree with it, worse because it socially unacceptable, is incredibly toxic. "False equivalencies" only works if they're, you know, false. Simply because the subject is different does not make it unfit, that is the whole point of equivalency. You actually brought up STDs and domestic violence being the result of someone's lifestyle (which saying that about DV is so very far beyond the pale it is physically revolting but I digress), this is so literally close to the Regan era talking points on "homosexual lifestyles" that being any closer would get you a hotel stay with a chimpanzee.
