The man stands at the top of the mountain and beats his chest declaring:
"I'm straight! I'm straight I tell ya!"
"No one thought you weren't" comes the reply
"No really. I'm straight as an arrow. Not even 0.5% curious. 100% straight"
"Nobody really cares if you weren't" they answer
"No. But I REALLY AM straight"
Methinks the lady doth protest too much... |

"If the man is standing on top of the mountain, where is the woman who is protesting ?"
And if she isn't there to tell him what he means, is the guy actually making any sense? |

The crowd who gathered were his peers. The people who pressured him to be a certain way, to conform to an ideal or face persecution.
On another day that man forms part of the crowd. Putting down TV/TS people to prove his heterosexuality. He feels threatened by their mere existence and feels they are somehow pressuring him into homosexual acts. |

If there was no one there to hear him, was he making any sound at all? |

Again you say 'he'. So why do you suggest that the 'lady' doth protest too much |

That's why he stands at the top of the hill. So he doesn't get hit by a tree falling in the forest. |

Because I don't start wondering until people who don't stand accused start to protest their innocence. |

Maybe he is confused...
The genuinely straight guys I know are secure in their sexuality and don't feel the need to do all this male posturing and constantly requiring validation.
This transphobic rage we're seeing on other threads has to come from somewhere. I thinks because people get angry when others have the balls to be who they are and they don't. |

I just find it annoying when someone says they don't believe anyone can be 100% straight. I AM and I'll shout it from the roof tops,well not really.
Ooh I did have a dream about going down on a woman the other night ,the thought of that in broad day light is ewww. Make of that what you will |

After a few dozens messages from guys and a few dozen more from 'women' who's 'friend' would love to do x,y or z. Is it not understandable that some guys would want to state outright on their profile that they are not sexually attracted to other men? I see no harm in it and if they are in denial then let them come to that conclusion on their own. No amount of "you might like it" would ever change my view though. |

I agree with ignite.
There have been far too many threads of late, that have a bullying attitude to those that say they are 100% straight.
Personally I don't care about someone else's sexuality. I am only interested in those people that suit my sexuality. Which is straight. Funnily enough I do know my own mind.
I think a lot of trouble with those, usually men that say they are straight but are wanting to experiment or know they are attracted to members of the same sex, is threads such as these. It just adds to the pressure they feel about being honest with themselves, let alone others. |

Being told often enough that people can't possibly be 100% straight and are in denial will eventually get people saying wtf and answering.
If people are going to say something so silly then why can't people say they are wrong |

Of course people can be 100% straight.
But why then the need to constantly tell everyone about it?
Why the need to go onto forums about trans issues and call people "it"?
I'm not saying all straight people do. I'm talking in particular about people who feel the need to make transphobic, biphobic and homophobic statements to assert to the world that they are in fact straight to remove any doubt. |

Most of these declarations of straightness come up in bi discussions. Which have nothing to do with straight men.
Strangely I very rarely see straight women declaring that no tiny part of them is bi. |

I have done when someone has said that no person is 100% straight and I am not the first on this thread.
Talking about being bi is normally on bi threads funnily enough so probably why straight people answer on it when being told no person is 100% bi. |

This isn't a discussion on bi men. It's a discussion on why some men feel the need to declare themselves as straight.
It's amazing to me that nobody will bat an eyelid if someone declares themselves bi or gay. But say "I'm straight, guys, I'm really not interested" on your profile and all of a sudden you're either in denial or homophobic.
Do as you please and judge others as you'd wish to be judged |

Seen the thread, decided it was just getting ridiculous as eventually the original point is lost with the tangents that are created. When dressed and made up to appear to look like a Woman I'm 100 % bisexual however dressed as a Man I can quite honestly say I'm 100% straight, get your heads around that !
I could try to elaborate about how the dressing changes my personality and how I see myself but I'm not in therapy or wishing to justify myself and my own perceptions for the sake of someone else's belief system. So I won't shout from the same mountain side as I don't honestly care about anyone's sexuality or wish to highlight my own, I'm me like it or lump it |

One of the signs that you have a good argument is when people have to twist what you're saying to prove you wrong.
Of course many people are 100% straight. I have NEVER said otherwise.
But then some people aren't 100% straight and can't accept it and direct the anger of their confusion at those that have accepted their sexuality.
If someone who is not straight offends you with their sexual orientation you have to think of why this makes you so angry... |

I'm not surprised that men want to meet you. I've just read your profile, and you seem like a thoroughly decent chap (with an awesome tash!).

Well there's obviously blatant homophobia which is self explanatory, but it is rather tiresome and patronising to have someone who isn't straight, lecturing those, who are comfortable with their heterosexual status, trying to convince them they don't understand their feelings?
Why question others positions, it really doesn't affect me? |

Also if a man is in a closet and hasn't come out yet. Is he really in the closet? Or is he dead and a cat? Hmmm |

I don't see any harm having a no men bit on the profile if you don't want men. I have a no women one at the moment, no one pays any attention to that either.
Effing and blinding on a "public" forum about it is a different matter.
I can see it being frustrating but a change of filters and a delete or no thanks does the trick. |

The higher he goes the mire evident the curvature of the earth will be making him appear bent.
As for matey in the closet? Lock him in and gaffa tape the doors and bury it in concrete. If he never gets out he's straight for sure. If he manages to get out I don't trust the little feckr |

I'm also talking about the guy on a parallel thread who felt the need to demonstrate his straightness by stereptyping all trans people as people trying to trick straight men into sex and hanging out in dark rooms for a deceitful grope. |

Inless I am really bad at English ...
"TVs and TSs Trying To Swing As Females"
...is plural. He tarred an entire demographic with the same brush because of the actions of one woman. But WHY???
This wasn't in response to anyone of fab suggesting he wasn't straight. He started the thread himself! It was a declaration of straightness at the expense of trans people! Are you saying there's no angst on that thread? |

The title of the thread is plural. Firstly the 's' at the end of each means more than one TV AND more than one TS. So while he may have used one person to form an opinion on millions of others the thead was aimed at a demographic, not a person.
It still doesn't answer why.
Im using that as an example by the way. Yesterday there was the same thing about a teacher, the day before it was about 2 year olds being taught tolerance. Very angry threads.
