That’s interesting. You get to claim that a gay person was lying about kissing their boyfriend, but when you feel that assumptions are being made about you, you flip out. Do you often find that you treat people in ways that you don’t accept for yourself to be treated?

You said: “There is never a reason for either party to escalate a verbal disagreement to a physical one, but…”

To me, that reads as, “It’s not OK. Except…”

Maybe you should have phrased it differently, e.g.:

There is never a reason for either party to escalate a verbal disagreement to a physical one.

I think that, maybe, the kissing described was more heavy and sexual in nature than they described. This does not mean they deserved to be attacked.

Actually, I’m going to edit my post, because me supposing they were kissing extra hard has no bearing on the violence done against them. I said the violence was wrong, so saying ‘but they might have been kissing offensively hard’ is stupid. It doesn’t matter. I said it didn’t matter, and then I said it like I did matter. I’m going to remove that part, because it’s stupid, and makes me look suspicious.

I ask again:

It’s not okay to spread the idea that strangers store their own sexual secretions in jars. Except, in your case…

Imagine that I finished that sentence by giving spurious reasons as to why I think it’s okay to spread a made up idea like that. Would you say ‘fair enough’ in response? Is it fair that I make you an exception, without evidence?
