The San Jose Sharks' James Reimer became the second player in two months to publicly opt out of wearing a "Pride"-themed warm-up jersey, joining the Philadelphia Flyers' Ivan Provorov, who also cited his Christian beliefs as the reason not to participate.B...
Well, hello fellow teammate. 😂 For me the worst part about it is they separate us into a specialty group versus letting us live our lives. For years and years and years the gays just wanted to be normal and be included in every day life. Then as soon as they were, they wanted to be special and different outside of normal life. Except for military and veterans (etc), nobody needs a special shirt day for their group or a month for their group or all that garbage. I hate that I get treated differently because of the way the gays act. If someone mentions having a kid, another person might say “how old is your son” and the first person replies with “oh it’s my daughter and she’s eight” and then the other person says “oh OK that’s nice”. If I say “I am married” and someone says “Oh tell me about your wife” and I respond “Actually I have a husband” then before I can start telling the person about him the other person jumps in with “I’m so sorry that I made an assumption I guess I shouldn’t make assumptions like that”. And so I will reply with “don’t apologize I’m not that type of gay”. I don’t get how having people walk on eggshells around us afraid to say something wrong is where we really want to be as a group. When Jesus said we should love one another it seemed pretty straightforward. I don’t remember the part about singling everybody out as different and dwelling on those differences.
Have you tried telling people "I'm just gay, not a flaming faggot?"
Hahaha. No. But I should add that to my response list!
