I wish it was different. The reality is that Australia is a sexist, racist, homophobic, climate change and sexual harassment denying colony, because that is who has always ruled. You might think there's other options in govt, but when you see actions vs policy, it's interesting times.

I almost had one, then he moved away. It was homophobic

its actually a lot like gay marriage in that liberals wanted to be pro gay rights but they didnt want to examine a single scrap of their own homophobic beliefs, resulting in a vaguely pro-gay stance that collapsed into homophobia once you started asking detailed questions

Ffs he sexually abused a pastor? How bad does quid pro quo harassment have to be to get not 1, not 2, but 3 cops to risk their careers and sue the guy who has total control over NYPD promotions? And somehow he has that control despite no longer working there! archive.is/RPl9W

A close friend and senior adviser to Mayor Eric Adams was vulgar and abusive toward female subordinates, referred to a gay police official using a homophobic slur and denied a woman a promotion because she resisted his suggestion that they engage in a "quid pro quo sexual relationship," a high-ranking New York Police Department official charges in a lawsuit filed on Tuesday.
The adviser, Timothy Pearson, also once sexually abused a female pastor, manipulated her into having sex with him and was abusive during the encounter about 10 years ago
- prompting her to file a criminal complaint against him, the suit says.
The lawsuit is the fourth action this year to accuse Mr.
Pearson of sexual harassment. Like two of the others, it was brought by a male police official who said he was disgusted by Mr. Pearson's treatment of women at a small unit Mr. Adams created to improve government efficiency.

Still, despite the drumbeat of sexual harassment and other accusations, Mr. Pearson has continued to occupy a position of extraordinary influence in Mr. Adams's administration, exercising near absolute control over most discretionary N.Y.P.D. promotions while holding no formal role at the department, Chief Marmara's lawsuit said.
The suit also names the N.Y.P.D?'s highest-ranking uniformed official, Jeffrey B. Maddrey, and its chief of patrol, John M. Chell, as defendants. It accuses Mr.
Pearson of using his power to deny a promotion to the female officer who resisted his overtures for the "quid pro quo sexual relationship." The lawsuit calls Mr. Pearson a
"poster boy" for retaliatory behavior against women who complain of sexual harassment at the N.Y.P.D.
"It just boggles my mind," Chief Marmara, the police official who brought the most recent suit, said in an interview last week. "He looks at females," he said of Mr.
Pearson, asking "what I can get from them, and the first thing he w

It’s low-key ignorant to suggest being a teen boy before online games got huge wasn’t deeply misogynist and homophobic. Early to mid 2000s was all “steers or queers” mentality. Some of us got beat, alienated, and kicked out for just being fluid. That’s a big price to pay for being yourself.

my then partner wanted to see WATCHMEN in iMax and even though iMax usually makes me queasy I agreed because I was excited for the movie. The problem ended up being the homophobic bros behind us giggling and accusing each other of looking every time Dr. Manhattan was full frontal.

What’s everyone’s WORST movie experience? Mine is the time a guy came into a half-full theater late, sat down right in front of another guy, swore at him for “kicking his seat,” wouldn’t move to one of the many seats not in front of anyone, and finally pulled a gun on him and screamed “I’M A COP!”

I think men should send each other dick pics. Among homophobic macho men it's all really a subconscious circle jerk, anyway.

Don't worry everyone, the gay guy who constantly rebuffed her advances because he was so gay she couldn't turn him straight (and who later married a nasty homophobic woman who was cruel to his long-term boyfriend) thought she was super hot when she was 17. McEldowney fucked up a key speech tail.

ohmigod I forgot the homophobic "real men don't eat quiche" thing. It was just a truism to kids-- boys in school circa 1984 just wouldn't eat it.
