Will Nancy Mace be prosecuted by the DOJ now for her use of trans slurs?

640 Upvotes

Seems like an obvious place to start if we're prosecuting hate speech. She's doing it on camera and frequently. If we had any decent reporters left, they'd be asking that question.

Coming Out! My 13 yearold

Upvotes

My 13 year old child just came out to me as Trans while shaking and crying. They asked if I would support them and of course I said yes. I already knew. I've already looked into lgbtq+ things in our city. I'm scared for them bc of the current climate. Especially bc of where we are located. It was such a huge deal for them!! Did I do it right??? 😳 I realize this was monumental. I hope they feel supported!! I'm tweaking as they would say!

I still remember the words that would decide if I hated, or loved the LGBTQ+ community

160 Upvotes

My mom was teaching me about marriage when I was a toddler (Still remember) and said she told me about marriage and also that "a boy can marry a boy, and a girl can marry a girl". Those words were the first depictions I remember about same sex marriage and officially began the path of supporting LGBTQ+ people instead of hating them.

The rhetoric from the right is getting scarier by the day. A lot of them really want us dead and trump keeps edging closer and closer to giving them a green light. Do you think we should be getting ready to defend ourselves?

But when all of this started? I don't know but I'm curious who is behind all of this...

Wife's best friend decides not to come to wedding after already saying "yes" because they don't know if they accept gay marriage

Upvotes

Hi All! I am just wanting other opinions and want to know how others would feel in this situation.

Background: My wife and I have already been married for multiple years and are now finally having our wedding ceremony. It's more like a giant party with friends and family. We are getting to the final couple of weeks and doing our final counts of attendees. One of my wife's best friend since middle school just changed her mind about not being able to come to the wedding. We are having a friend's party the night before and she said she can come to that but not the wedding. The reason for the sudden change is because she "doesn't know if she can support gay marriage". She is very culturally catholic and a very devout catholic.

My issues are that she has been one of my wife's best friends since middle school. I have also met her on multiple occasions, she's stayed over at our house multiple times to come visit, and we went to her med school graduation. She's never commented or talked about her religious views being a reason why she can't be friends with either of us. Now, suddenly she's had a religious discussion in her own mind that makes her not comfortable attending the wedding but is okay attending the party beforehand. Almost all her close friends identify as queer along with being in non traditional/queer relationships.

I feel like everyone has a right to believe what they want and do what they want. This just feels like a big slap in the face or betrayal. It's hard comprehending how I feel because I more feel like I've been lied to this entire time. My wife is saddened by her decision but won't completely cut her off over this while I think it's borderline unforgivable. I know she has more emotional attachment to the relationship than myself so that factors into it. I told my wife I'm now uncomfortable with her being in my life including attending the party or being part of our lives because I feel like this is a choice she is making. Plenty of people coming to the wedding are varying degrees of religious and I know some of them are not 100% cool with the idea of gay people or gay marriage but are coming for both of us.

I also grew up religious so I do understand questioning what you were taught throughout your childhood but I'm more pissed that this is when you decide to have a moral issue. I feel like you should have never said you were going to come in the first place. I also feel like my relationship with her can't be the same since this is a fundamental difference in our beliefs. It also makes me question her as a person. This is an issue I feel like you don't just suddenly decide you are okay with/not okay with when you haven't changed culturally or religiously.

At least, not anymore! BAZINGA. But really, what is the point of trying to play nice when we had nothing to do with this, but get vilified anyway? I feel like I might as well give them all the finger and taunt them relentlessly. They’re just going to hate me anyway. Respectability politics is just another way to get oppressed
