Dmo, while i somewhat agree with you... us (straight people) aren't persecuted on anywhat near the same level they are.... which is what results in this... instead of taking things as a joke, they've been programmed by our society, to think everyone's out to get them...

i think they create problems for themselves by taking offense to everything (tho far from even most of them do...) but at the same time, they've been persecuted by everyone under the sun... i know if every corner i turned, i had someone fucking with me, and making more shit for me to handle, eventually enough would be enough and i'd probably be finding some of the same (minimal) things, offensive....
