In this context, I was having a happy conversation and not really expecting to be called "disgusting". That's not argueing against same sex marriage, and is not helpful in the work place. My mum is a staunch catholic and conservative, but never has she referred to me like that. I feel you're argueing the wrong person. I'm happy to listen to respectful conservatives, just as I am intolerant of intolerant "liberals", but sometimes you've gotta be intolerant of the intolerance.
- morgtheborg 8y agoOh, I misunderstood. Saying that gay marriage is disgusting reads to me as calling out the policy, NOT saying that gays are disgusting. I completely agree that calling a group of human being disgusting is an uncalled for, personal attack that goes beyond sharing your political opinions. Sorry about the misunderstanding :)
- amaccuish 8y agoWell it was more that he couldn't say the gays are disgusting, so used the policy to get round it, so it's a bit of an unusual situation, all understood :)
