Geekhack LGBTQ+ thread
« on: Mon, 24 August 2015, 12:39:00 »
Hey, so we have off-topic threads for pretty much every other aspect of our lives, so I figured I'd see if any other geekhackers are queer like me! I've found internet communities in general, especially technology-related ones to be very hateful, but I guess I'm hoping that because geekhack has such a strong sense of community it might be better here. I'd love to hear about people's experiences here and in other parts of the keyboard community. Anyways, interested to see what kind of responses I get, positive or negative.

I haven't really noticed people being hateful on tech forums. Maybe I just go to the wrong ones.


But I don't really care about anyones sexuality, I only judge people on them as a person. not who they like to bang or they're lifestyle choices.



I only judge demik and his wrongly flipped spacebar.

from the world i've seen through my eyes, like a lot of spaces, gh is predominantly a boys' club. so if you can hang in that environment, then bully for you. I identify str8, but consider myself an ally.

i appreciate you making a thread for this

I am a lover all of peoples. Everyone should be happy and be allowed to be themselves, without fear of hostility. I honestly can't imagine anyone being negative about anything to do with someone's LGBTQ status. I know they can be, of course, it just makes no sense to me.

Never noticed it on OCN.  In fact, I think I remember seeing people banned for it.  I do know that the internet loves to call people ***got, but that's mainly people thinking they're funny and/or douchebags.  The only legit place I could see it flying is the RedRaider Tech forum, but I don't think they're around anymore. I could see it in parts of Reddit too, but we would remove that content and probably ban the person in /r/buildapc.

I lump myself into the ally category like clacktalk.  Of course, if you come in here with LGBTTIQQ2SA, LGBTQQIAAP, or LGBTTQQ***PBDSM, I will make fun of you for not using the equally inclusive and less absurd LBGTQ+ you used in your title.

People's sexuality is the least of my concerns when it comes to interacting with them.

I find all PDA annoying though, I'll tell you that much.

I got hit on by a very handsome gay guy at Wawa the other day. It ended up with me just hugging him and thanking him for the compliment.

Why didn't you?  The wife gave permission, sounds like fair game.  Not very often you get a free pass.

We'll keep it ongoing as long as demik, nubbs, and tp4 keep trying to get me to bang a guy. I'd probably do Fight Club era Brad Pitt.

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.
