This sure does read as "there is zero pressure to come out".
Also, why are you letting a link Guide posted divert you away from people calling you to the mat over your origi--oh, never mind.
Right?! Guide immediately rushed to the defense of his fellow bigot buddy, and TC absolutely took the helpI dont think either of them are bigots. I think TC just wanted to stir the pot, and Guide was defending tc without the context of why the topic was so suspect.
Easiest tags in history.
I'm gonna give you one more chance to save yourself, literally just one.I'll preface this by stating that this has no relevance to anything I've said previously. Objectively, this is revealing new information to the audience that they didn't know before, so it is, in some sense, "announcing" it to the audience, but nowhere close to getting on a soapbox and delivering a speech to the world. It's also much better writing, obviously; a bi person tends to give more kisses to the same sex than announcements that they're bi to the world. As I've been discussing it, though, I wouldn't consider it an announcement. Unpacking (the game) has some really excellent diegetic storytelling to show that the main character is bi, and I love it for that.
Here is the context:
The character didn't go on some soapbox to announce they're bisexual. They didn't announce they're bisexual at all. They just happened to have a scene where they kissed a fellow man.
Do you think this is "announcing" their sexuality? Please explain.
Trans is not a sexuality.True! I made the title before the OP and didn't go back and change it. My bad.

And did any of your friends you opened up to encourage you unprompted to tell anyone else, or to publicly "perform" your identity?Of course not! They know that is my identity, my journey, and that it goes at my pace.
(What was with that "perform" language anyway? Feels sus just reading it.)

No one (outside of maybe a few online wackos) are saying everyone has to. People are saying everyone should be able to do so freely. Huge difference.
This is definitely the main point. Nobody is saying everybody has to, just that everybody should feel free to, if they want to. It's the people that get mad whenever somebody outs, at all, that are the problem.And those people are like "I have no problem with people being whoever they are, but please keep it out of public so it doesn't make me feel queasy!"
I think theres some merit to TCs post. In an ideal non bigoted world, it shouldnt be news worthy when someone comes out.Its not correct to make prescriptions based on ideal circumstances.

There are valid reasons for still needing to "come out" but hopefully in a few decades there won't be.Because everybody would be able to be out without having to agonize over it
It's literally only news-worthy BECAUSE people like TC complained about it, though. If they hadn't complained, it wouldn't have made news, in the first place.

What prompted this topic, tc?
Its not correct to make prescriptions based on ideal circumstances.A prescriptive statement is about how the world should be, also known as "ideal circumstances".
It's literally only news-worthy BECAUSE people like TC complained about it, though. If they hadn't complained, it wouldn't have made news, in the first place.Where have I complained about it?
This. No one complains when a heterosexual couple kisses. We should be aiming to treat everyone the same and TC is decidedly not doing that.I'm literally doing that! That's what this topic is about! Being gay or trans or whatever should be normal and utterly unexceptional! That's what my second post in this topic was about!

Shut the fuck up

Guide is one of the biggest allies on this board
lmaoI'm not Guide, since everyone who knows me knows I'm a brown German Muslim dude, and you're welcome to delve into my post history, especially considering you either pulled that quote out of your ass, or you dug up some stuff from 10 years ago when I was a lot more bigoted than I am now
So are you Guide, or do you just want me to start getting in to your own post history, Mr. "Vibrators are UNNATURAL and WRONG"?

e: 14 year old account with 160 karma. My bad for taking you seriously
By "ten years ago" did you mean three years ago[Citation needed]
Because it was three years ago, and you continued to make similar topics for atleast a year and a half beyond that. Probably longer, but I stopped looking, because I realized you weren't worth it.

You've been nothing but a basic gibberish troll since, which is why nobody typically pays attention to you. I'm already offering you too much.bit overly harshalso is the topic with that post visible now? I still doubt your claim tbh it seems fabricatable

Also hey teep, did you mean to post on that account? Gave yourself away a bit with that "I still doubt" bit. Maybe you'll get better at this, eventually

You seem incredibly upset that I pointed out that you forgot which alt you were on, since you replied to me as if we were already talking when we weren't.you are very off rn look at how theres is 2 different people in the selfie topic with usernames and learn ffs
I still doubt your claim tbh it seems fabricatable
Damn, I can't believe someone would go on the internet and tell lies!
