nothing ever gets over 120 upvotes in this group, wtf. why are y’all so eager to back up the idea that it’s weird to talk about being gay
aita for not caring if someone is gay? it sounds bad but like i introduced myself to someone and the first thing out of their mouth was that theyre gay. i was like "cool okay" but the vibe was weird

the OP literally just described learning that someone is gay as “being put in an awkward situation”

i'm OP. i didnt say that person being gay is being put in an awkward situation. its the way they went about it. you are trying to create homophobia where there is none

you ignored all my other responses and pinpointed one out-of-context response

didn’t ignore anything. if you don’t like having your words quoted back to you then you should use different words

but why is them mentioning it off the bat awkward for you? that’s the thing you’re ignoring. we know you’re not talking about them being gay, and instead are talking about them mentioning that they’re gay during their introduction, but why is that an issue for you?

and no, it is not the same as mentioning being straight; but regardless why would either matter? you could easily just have said that “okay cool” like you mentioned, and just moved on; instead of making it a much bigger deal than it actually is. that is why you are being criticized, as far as I can tell.
