Do you think I'm being homophobic by wanting to hear your experience from the person who experienced it? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] Thelaststandn@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago I think the emphasis comes across wrong. When I read that in my head it sounds… condoning? permalink fedilink source parent [–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Both of you are coming vague. His “leaning more hetero at the time” and your emphasis on ACTUALLY, you sound like you’re doubting that a person can like penises and vaginas, or just straight up not care. He’s probably bi or pan. Probably always had been. He probably didn’t realize it in school, or wouldn’t admit it to himself due to societal pressure. He seems to be more comfortable about it now. It really doesn’t need much more detail. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] tias@discuss.tchncs.de 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Sheesh, have some good faith folks permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 1 point 2 years ago I feel like lemmy is sticking more to the old reddiquette upvote/downvote culture of “upvote if it contributes to the conversation, downvote if not”, and not the modern culture of “upvote is if lols”. permalink fedilink source parent [–] MacAnus@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago Idk man people are weird...

Maybe restating to "were you just curious at the time, or did you have experience?" would help? permalink fedilink source parent
