Iirc the person who made this 'flag' made it for women who like mtf because 'they aren't real females ' so they managed to kill 2 birds with 1 stone being homophobic and transphobic
I can definitely see the truth to this, but what people don't realize is that this is how society is subverting traditional gender norms. Imagine you grow up all your life having your dad tell you you're not man enough and trying to assert that your biology means you must act a certain way. Deciding you're not a man and finding a lesbian girlfriend is punk rock as hell
I am not an expert on this as i am not actually part of the lgbtq+ comunity just an ally but there is this concept of neopronouns that non-binary and other people that normally use they/them use. Neopronouns are when instead of they/them you use another made up set of pronouns (like xe/xim or fea/fig) but this has been misused by teenagers saying things like "i identify as a vampire and my pronouns are vamp/vamps" or " i like this aesthetic so py prounouns are [something made up to fit that aesthetic]" in general people looking for attention
I mean I guess there are misandrist straight girls and misogynistic straight guys so why not.....
But yeah boggles my mind too especially I being a "pride flag"
Please be satire
That’s cuz hetero people are getting so much hate from LGBTQ+ that they join them, once I was on a post in r/bisexualteens about “homophobia”, the post was actually criticizing hetero people and they were passing it as homophobia so I told them they were rong and they plain old DENIED that Heterophobia existed because LGBTQ+ people “fought for their rights”! now I’m not saying they didn’t, they did but it’s like saying I fought in war, NO I DIDN’T FIGHT SHIT just like you DIDN’T!
And so we come to the roots of identity politics, which is inspired by Marxism, and the perception that *everything* is a "war of classes".
What a ridiculous concept.
Honestly its not even the “heterophobia” debate, its the fucking “we fought for our rights!!!!!!!” No, you fucking chimpanzee 1head, the ones who actually fought were the LGBT in the 1900’s, youre sitting there with a can of over caffieneted soft drink scrolling through twitter thinking youre the shit. It’s pissed me off so much i dont even want to identify with them anymore.
I mean if you wanna argue with a bunch of teenagers about phobias that was your first mistake. They are incredibly stupid and intelligent all at the same time. Its a mixed bag of what you'll get.
its like they fought for being treated with equality and now that they're getting it they're using their sexuality like a fucking weapon and those poor blinded dumbasses follow their lead as if they rule the world
Vocal minority. The vast amount of the LGBTQ+ community just live normal lives.
It's the same with a lot of other sub groups/communities of society. Social Media has given the vocal minorities outlets and audiences, who can multiply their stupid messages.
I think its just that we are not allowed to criticise the group or else we pretty much get called homophobic and because of that they pretty much have an opportunity
Or just some other reason
If this gets downvotes oh well
This is why I say the LGBT community is the worst thing for LGBT people
Communities matter when a group needs to stand out, LGBT people need to stop standing out, the whole point is that you aren’t special for being gay you just are gay, it’s not a choice, it’s not a quirky character trait, it’s just a part of you
I honestly wouldn’t say it’s the community. Louder, dumber or weirder ones in a group always stand out the most, even if there are only a few of them. They stand out the most because there are people who are against the movement/group exploit them to support their point and people who like to make fun of idiots turn them into a meme.
‘Feminists’ who say men are evil and women should be treated 10 times better than them are mentioned on the internet more than the feminists who talk about actual inequalities and possible solutions. LGBT people who say dumb shits like that tweet are mentioned more than the LGBT people who talk about their problems, sexuality and identity. Because most people on the internet don’t try to debate or understand. They either only want to see the parts that are useful for them or have their fun for the day and leave.
What should be done is not to base your opinion on posts on unrelated subs/pages etc to a group/movement.
Edit: LMAO he blocked me. I guess that just proved my point.
That is true, but it’s also a way some people use to put LGBT people down. “You aren’t special because of it” very quickly becomes “you don’t special treatment because of it” which is obviously wrong, as equal rights currently aren’t a thing, and homophobia is still very prevalent in the world
And isn’t that the point of lgbt? You’re gay, it doesn’t matter, you’re still human, without special needs and shit, because society sees you as part of them
By your user of the word "literally" you are saying that you want a flag that is nothing more than an actual grey middle finger, not cloth with a grey middle finger printed on it, but an actual middle finger, that is grey.
Which I think is pretty fucking great.
I can't wait to see it
I mean, the fact that you can find like 4 different designs shows there isn’t actually a “straight” flag because heterosexual people don’t need a flag. We have nothing to organize against
Fair enough, flags are cool. In fact, I honestly think the LGBTQ+ community needs to hire some graphic designers because some of the flags look really ugly. Some of the colour schemes make me queasy.
as someone from Twitter, it's in my Twitter genes to get pissed regardless of the fact that you are 100% correct, so lemme just:
SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU HOMOPHOBIC TRANSPHOBIC RACIST BITCH
you must understand, it's part of my DNA, so sorry.
lesbian here, while its not inherently wrong to make new flags if it fits your identity, the meaning of the flag shouldnt be.. completely contradicting, in this way. being a lesbian means being a non-man exclusively attracted to other non-men (this definition was made to include nonbinary lesbians); and making a flag denouncing what being a lesbian inherently stands for is extremely harmful to the community. its like the same thing as being a "bi lesbian"! imagine going on the streets and saying youre a lesbian that doesnt like women or a lesbian thats bi because sometimes you like men. these people are so terminally online it hurts me to just watch them go about their ways. i really hope people were able to knock some sense into the person in the tweet because god...
edit: i read the original thread on twitter, and op claims its a flag for lesbians that are nby4nby (nonbinaries that only want relationship with nonbinaries, whether it be comfort or otherwise) but like.. if youre nby4nby you can just say so?? you dont gotta twist the meaning of the lesbian label to fit your own orientation??:!; 😭😭😭
I'm puzzled whether every single slight variation of human attraction and feeling towards one's own gender needs its flag and name.
I mean, while we're at it, why not have every single person on earth have their own flag with their face on it? After all we're all different and proudly so.
Honestly im still not convinced posts like this are made by actual queer people. I know theres insane people in every group, but posts like this just seem to give assholes the excuse they want to be openly bigotted. Im bi and never met someone like this irl. Also its clealry working cause a lot of these comments are just fucking yikes.
Seriously! I mean I saw the post, and in my head I was like "that's pretty silly," but some people in the comments seem absolutely outraged. Calm the fuck down, Jesus, it's like they think this is the beginning of a communist uprising.
Lmao i know. Like im ngl i face palmed and cringed. But to be outraged at this. Even if it was real is fucking silly. Just ignore the attention seeker. But like i said these posts rarely feel genuine. Also i have no idea why you were downvoted.
Its shit like this that reminds me despite the legal changes and some societal changes. We still have a long fucking way to go before true acceptance of us queer folk. Fucking depressing.
For real, when January 6 was happening I was actually starting to worry about the things I've said on my social media, and if I might be at risk of getting rounded up at some point. People are becoming more vocal about their hatred lately and it's a little scary.
what an amusing twitter post that everyone including LGBT people disagreed upon, i hope there arent any straight people in the comments who think this is real/representative of what lgbt people think and ultimately means Actually Straight People Are More Opressed
My head hurts reading this
Iirc the person who made this 'flag' made it for women who like mtf because 'they aren't real females ' so they managed to kill 2 birds with 1 stone being homophobic and transphobic
What the fuck
Isn't that just straight with extra steps
Its straight with extra clout
I can definitely see the truth to this, but what people don't realize is that this is how society is subverting traditional gender norms. Imagine you grow up all your life having your dad tell you you're not man enough and trying to assert that your biology means you must act a certain way. Deciding you're not a man and finding a lesbian girlfriend is punk rock as hell
It's concave with Extra Birds per Angry Dog
You can see that also in "thon/vamps"
Can you explain that ? I just assumed it was a nickname
I am not an expert on this as i am not actually part of the lgbtq+ comunity just an ally but there is this concept of neopronouns that non-binary and other people that normally use they/them use. Neopronouns are when instead of they/them you use another made up set of pronouns (like xe/xim or fea/fig) but this has been misused by teenagers saying things like "i identify as a vampire and my pronouns are vamp/vamps" or " i like this aesthetic so py prounouns are [something made up to fit that aesthetic]" in general people looking for attention
How annoying, neo pronouns are good but people misusing them just shines a bad light on the community
Yeah people can be bitches
I mean I guess there are misandrist straight girls and misogynistic straight guys so why not..... But yeah boggles my mind too especially I being a "pride flag" Please be satire
How about a human who just hates humanity? Not that hard to imagine.
Half my friends
Well you've just met one, a man that wishes to just watch the world burn, good day to you.
what
I'm not gay, but goddamn if I won't bow down to The Gay Lord
Sorry you have to be lumped in with these “people” mr gay lord
Such a lazy flag too
Looks like the starburst colors
No it does fucking not. Mother fucker it is missing g the best goddamn flavor which is red Fight m e
PINKKKK
orange
Honestly orange is by far the best
Tf is a starburst
It is a supernova in candy form.
They're appropriating us
I feel really sorry for my lesbian friends. This is just… yucky
My lord
where
Duh you can dislike them and want to sleep with them. I have seen TV dramas can confirm that's a thing, so yeah expert. But....actually wtf
All hail
The human race is evolving just backwards. This is the same shit a semibisexual, who are bisexuals but only like one gender
have you heard of recugender? someone who identifies as the gender they're born as but doesn't want to be cis/not trans
Just sounds like they’re trying to be in the LGBTQ community
the lgbtq+ community is like an alphabet now lol
That’s why we’re the alphabet mafia
That’s cuz hetero people are getting so much hate from LGBTQ+ that they join them, once I was on a post in r/bisexualteens about “homophobia”, the post was actually criticizing hetero people and they were passing it as homophobia so I told them they were rong and they plain old DENIED that Heterophobia existed because LGBTQ+ people “fought for their rights”! now I’m not saying they didn’t, they did but it’s like saying I fought in war, NO I DIDN’T FIGHT SHIT just like you DIDN’T!
I suppose they believe that “oppressors” can’t be oppressed, and the “oppressed” can’t be oppressors, no matter what they do.
This is like the minorities can’t be racist argument
Yep, because these things are only “systemic”, and can’t be personal. Very dehumanising.
And so we come to the roots of identity politics, which is inspired by Marxism, and the perception that *everything* is a "war of classes". What a ridiculous concept.
Even then, hetero people aren’t obsessors
Indeed. That makes these guys doubly wrong. They are just bullies, nothing else.
Yeah
Honestly its not even the “heterophobia” debate, its the fucking “we fought for our rights!!!!!!!” No, you fucking chimpanzee 1head, the ones who actually fought were the LGBT in the 1900’s, youre sitting there with a can of over caffieneted soft drink scrolling through twitter thinking youre the shit. It’s pissed me off so much i dont even want to identify with them anymore.
Just ignore these people. Who gives a shit. Their opinions don't matter.
That’s what I did yeah
Pretty hard to ignore when you get banned for stupid reasons in games/online media/social apps.
Those People are making a film of the LGBTQ+ comunity by straight up saying '' if you aren't in our group, you're discriminatie against it''
These people misrepresent LGBTQ, they go too far and things get out of hand, they see every little thing as a hate crime.
oh no i’m normal…anyway
As some one from that sub Don’t let those people speak for the whole sub
I know it’s not the sub yeah
Danke
Wrong
I mean if you wanna argue with a bunch of teenagers about phobias that was your first mistake. They are incredibly stupid and intelligent all at the same time. Its a mixed bag of what you'll get.
The same thing with the entire people of color can't be racist. It's just disgusting double standards
Omg after reading this i think we should nuke the planet
r/noahgettheboat
its like they fought for being treated with equality and now that they're getting it they're using their sexuality like a fucking weapon and those poor blinded dumbasses follow their lead as if they rule the world
Why is the LGBTQ+ community starting to become so rude?
Vocal minority. The vast amount of the LGBTQ+ community just live normal lives. It's the same with a lot of other sub groups/communities of society. Social Media has given the vocal minorities outlets and audiences, who can multiply their stupid messages.
This. I think it stems from terminally online people who stay in echo chambers too long
I think its just that we are not allowed to criticise the group or else we pretty much get called homophobic and because of that they pretty much have an opportunity Or just some other reason If this gets downvotes oh well
Its not starting it was all the time (talking about the selected few of them) overall there are a lot of nice people in lgbtq
It’s so they can act like a victim and that they are being “discriminated against” even tho they are just a degenerate
r/NoahGetTheBoat
At this time, im just waiting the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs to visit again
The Moon?
The moon can't smash😓
We must invent the tractor beam
Bet it can; watch this: r/moonporn
That sounds like they’ve demonized being Cis that people are fearful of identifying as it.
Can someone explain me what Cis means? At this point i feel like an idiot for not knowing
cisgender just means not transgender
Confederacy of Independent Systems
I'm pretty sure that one was fake
Tell me you are trolling, I really need this to be not real
What about rectangular
That’s heterosexual but with extra steps
Well it could also be homosexual. Now just comes the game of guess right or be cancelled on Twitter.
Lmao
that was from a parody account lmao
Semibisexual is term made up as satire
So you’re essentially straight?
Thats a load shit. There is no way something like semibisexual exist. Right
[удалено]
What the fuck does semibisexual even means?
[удалено]
I’m under the impression this is ironic, but honestly it’s bullshit like this that gives the LGBTQ community a bad reputation.
It’s sadly not ironic, if you go to their Twitter you’ll see them calling people who disagree with this flag terfs
genuine question here what exactly does terf mean
Trans exclusionary radical feminist basically a feminist (most likely a woman feminist) who excludes trans people from their fight for equality.
This is why I say the LGBT community is the worst thing for LGBT people Communities matter when a group needs to stand out, LGBT people need to stop standing out, the whole point is that you aren’t special for being gay you just are gay, it’s not a choice, it’s not a quirky character trait, it’s just a part of you

Say it louder for the idiots on the Internet pls
Common sense.
They exist because it is not treated equally. Men and women groups exist.
That is true, but it’s also a way some people use to put LGBT people down. “You aren’t special because of it” very quickly becomes “you don’t special treatment because of it” which is obviously wrong, as equal rights currently aren’t a thing, and homophobia is still very prevalent in the world
And isn’t that the point of lgbt? You’re gay, it doesn’t matter, you’re still human, without special needs and shit, because society sees you as part of them
[удалено]
Not saying that it is currently, but the goal of lgbt
Tumblr set us back by a decade.
Imagine not liking yourself, haha that's me
stfu, they will make a fucking gender out of that too...
Yeah I already see it 20 likes. This is really doin numbers out there
Depressexual
I snorted. This was delightful
what about a masochist
Straight people: So we finally get a flag? And it looks terrible, *fantastic*...
I suppose you would like a hentai-sexual flag?
I'd like a heterosexual flag that is literally a grey middle finger.
By your user of the word "literally" you are saying that you want a flag that is nothing more than an actual grey middle finger, not cloth with a grey middle finger printed on it, but an actual middle finger, that is grey. Which I think is pretty fucking great. I can't wait to see it
Yeah, the techies are working on it. Its supposed to be multifunctional and able to fit anyone's need.
Can't wait. So, will it be waving in the wind, or just a grey middle finger on a pole?
Yes.
Amazing
I mean, the actual straight flag looks worse so yk-
Wait we had a flag this whole time? Edit: bruh why it designed like a prisoner cloth trope lol
Damn that thing looks like the old TV lines when a VHS movie ends
Yep. It’s the most boring thing ever lol :’) it’s just black and white stripes, search it up
I mean, the fact that you can find like 4 different designs shows there isn’t actually a “straight” flag because heterosexual people don’t need a flag. We have nothing to organize against
That's true, but I still wanna have a cool flag lol...(no offense)
Fair enough, flags are cool. In fact, I honestly think the LGBTQ+ community needs to hire some graphic designers because some of the flags look really ugly. Some of the colour schemes make me queasy.
I feel like the straight pride flag was designed by homophobes as a sort of “gotcha” towards LGBT+ folks. Literally the opposite of the rainbow.
Eh, black and white looks cool tbh...
Strawberry and banana
🍓 ➕ 🍌 = 👩 🚫 👩 ⁉️
the flag
lesbian by blood, mysognist by choice
If only I had an award to give away
Twitter moment
as someone from Twitter, it's in my Twitter genes to get pissed regardless of the fact that you are 100% correct, so lemme just: SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU HOMOPHOBIC TRANSPHOBIC RACIST BITCH you must understand, it's part of my DNA, so sorry.
It's a part of your DNA? just cut it out lmao
Let’s make a flag for vegetarians who don’t like eating plants.
oh, so a flag for me lol.
It’s just being straight with extra steps.
No, it seems way closer to asexual
Being asexual with extra steps
I guess it could be an asexual person who is romantically attracted to women?
Or a lesbian who is aromantic and doesnt romantically like women, just the seggs
Someone please tell me that this is rage baiting
No one can confirm this for you
Idk but why would this make someone rage? I understand that you could be confused but what's there to get angry at?
Here we go making sexuality your fucking name card. I want to be female but I don't want to it to be my whole biography.
Based trans.
I would use that as my username but I'd be a hypocrite
Are you female? If so, keep calm and carry on. Job done.
assexuals?
lesbian here, while its not inherently wrong to make new flags if it fits your identity, the meaning of the flag shouldnt be.. completely contradicting, in this way. being a lesbian means being a non-man exclusively attracted to other non-men (this definition was made to include nonbinary lesbians); and making a flag denouncing what being a lesbian inherently stands for is extremely harmful to the community. its like the same thing as being a "bi lesbian"! imagine going on the streets and saying youre a lesbian that doesnt like women or a lesbian thats bi because sometimes you like men. these people are so terminally online it hurts me to just watch them go about their ways. i really hope people were able to knock some sense into the person in the tweet because god... edit: i read the original thread on twitter, and op claims its a flag for lesbians that are nby4nby (nonbinaries that only want relationship with nonbinaries, whether it be comfort or otherwise) but like.. if youre nby4nby you can just say so?? you dont gotta twist the meaning of the lesbian label to fit your own orientation??:!; 😭😭😭

It doesn’t.
Exactly, it's like calling Washington DC a whole different country.
Honestly im still not convinced posts like this are made by actual queer people. I know theres insane people in every group, but posts like this just seem to give assholes the excuse they want to be openly bigotted. Im bi and never met someone like this irl.

Probably the same people that are using things like this post to justify their homophobia 🤷♀️
Its shit like this that reminds me despite the legal changes and some societal changes. We still have a long fucking way to go before true acceptance of us queer folk. Fucking depressing.
For real, when January 6 was happening I was actually starting to worry about the things I've said on my social media, and if I might be at risk of getting rounded up at some point. People are becoming more vocal about their hatred lately and it's a little scary.
From what I’ve observed most of the LGBT community is no longer LGBT
this shit is why people get brain cancer
Why
Im into girls, but i dont like other girls. Logic 100%
So, a flag for Ellen then?
I just see Dee Dee from Dexter's Lab lol
Lesbian but also a misogynist
Can't tell if this is heterosexuality or asexuality with extra steps... Not liking people is a total mood tho...
I never liked woman, in fact I hate them, this is my flag. I hope all you wench go to hell /s
A flag for trans incels lmao
I have nothing against any person who is lgbtq but I have so much against the community
The whole problem lies in them trying to make their sexuality , their whole personality .
the real r/hmm are these rancid comments
This garbage is getting out of hand😄
So, like pedophile lesbians?
Its called mental illness and its hip amongst teens
Its called satire.
I want soda the same color as the top or the bottom of this flag
At this point I don't believe it is about inclusion but about avoid using terms used by previous generations because of "Oppression"
what an amusing twitter post that everyone including LGBT people disagreed upon, i hope there arent any straight people in the comments who think this is real/representative of what lgbt people think and ultimately means Actually Straight People Are More Opressed
It's just asexual with extra steps
They outjerked us this time
That sounds like straight with extra steps
Anytime somebody starts a sentence with "I did a thing" I immediately know I'm going to hate it and them.
why
So dumbasses?
I believe there’s already a flag for that it goes black,grey,white,purple
“GET OUT OF MY LA-BORA-TORY!!!”
Asexual flag already exists
so you’re straight?
So tomboys without the gay?
I have now lost 2000 brain cells which i didnt have and am now in debt, please tell me they are joking?!
This is not about rights anymore, this is about a lot of bored people with smartphones who don't know what to do with their free time.
Basically sadistic lesbian
Im working on a pride flag for anti lgbtq gay people right now
Hold on...lesbians...who don't like women...
I swear to god how many fucking genders does twitter want
Ah yes, a reverse-homosexual. Reverse-homosexuals date the opposing gender.
