By greatest invention I mean something that had big and positive influence.

        It was…clearly a joke. A silly reaction to something that was wholesome and sweet. Have you never had a sense of humor? Or is the lack of one more recent and something maybe a doctor should know about

        Edit: wow. You really went back in my comment history to try to harass me? It doesn’t bother me as much as it worries me. Real creepy and, honestly, kinda sad behavior? You good?

            It wasn’t bullying. It was meant to make you laugh. It was meant to make everyone laugh. It wasn’t homophobic. It was the absurdity of reacting to flippantly something entirely wholesome and sweet that all comments were gushing over. Because the answer was sweet and wholesome. It’s really the kind of joke you can only make in an accepting and pro-lgtbtq community. Because the response was meant to be absurd. I didn’t realize it’d hit such a sore spot for you. I didn’t think it could, honestly. Because you way fuckin overreacted.

              Of course it’s just humor, it’s always just that. Maybe if you’d been bullied before you would have a clue about it but you definitely don’t since you think just saying “gay” is funny. So either you went in my history and wanted to bully me for being gay, or just randomly thought that saying “gay” is somehow funny. In both case you suck. And yeah I’m gonna keep overreacting when it involves my kid because I now know that the only effective thing against bully’s ‘humor’ is to fight back. What’s next, you gonna get black people banned because they didn’t find it funny to be called them the n word? So funny.

                lol you think I’ve never been bullied? I know full well what bullying is. Of course I didn’t go into your history. I had no idea you were gay. That doesn’t change the joke, though. I’m sorry to have hit a sore spot for you, that definitely wasn’t my intention. The joke was meant to be on me. The joke wasn’t that loving your goddamn kid is “gay.” How the hell could it be? The joke was that the reaction was meant to stand out as absurd and stupid. The joke was meant to point to my reaction as the thing that stood out as backwards. Not your love for your child. Nor being gay. It wasn’t even about the common use of the word “gay.” It was the idiotic caricature of someone who refuses to engage in anything remotely human or sentimental—it was basically a joke on toxic masculinity. Do you see that?

                    Well, not everyone gets every joke. But that one, used in lgbtq spaces, has historically not been reacted to the way you reacted. It was seen for what it was: a stupid joke about the absurdity of the response. Not any commentary whatsoever on any sexual identity/preference. You took it the wrong way. Fine. Sorry it touched a sore spot. But it was definitely not meant to be taken that way. Such is life.
