Sexual identity
Ines "Obviously most disruptive people are on left wing "
Really? Double standards again?
Not at all: @Sin described it perfectly, gays who belong to the right tend to be conservative (that's why they are right-wing ), gays from the most "disruptive" groups are often associations, they are politically linked to the left and the extreme left, at least in my country.
Rina I’m saying about nudity should be less stigmatized on special occasions like pride parades, not a life in “average day”. To be fair there are tons of festivals that people get half naked.
so i have to agree with @Ines on many things here, the question you have to ask yourself is: how would you see it if it is not a parade for sexual openness and sexual identities? what if it is a bdsm parade? i have been to such a parade myself out of interest and showing visibility doesn't have to mean standing naked in the street.
i think it is more important to live together peacefully in everyday life, i kiss my girlfriend in public, but i don't touch her shirt in front of everyone and touch her breasts, that belongs in private.

From the different posting I see we have not comparable situation in our countries. This makes is difficult to understand how it is in your country.
Once I saw a Pride parade in the USA. At first I didn't know what the rainbow flags and rainbow unicorns meant, but quickly found out. I was impressed how openly they showed what big company they were from and how proud they were to be supported by their company. It was a happy parade and they had fun. OK. Two young women couldn't help it and had to keep showing their bare breasts from a float. But was the exception. Other than that, I didn't see any naked or semi-naked people. Since I saw more here in Germany what was considered normal here. However, I have not seen here that they openly show in which company they work nor that the company supports them.
Rina Cry me a river!
There is difference between joking and being against Trans/diverse people. Get that in your head.

A joke that relies entirely on the notion that any gender identity you are unfamiliar with is made-up nonsense.
Do not get me wrong, it is well-written and there may be a time and place for it, but a topic where people discuss their valid, real and difficult struggles with their own gender identity is not it.
Personally, I would consider it somewhat appropriate in the context of X AE A-XIII Musk, but only because their parents had the stupid idea to assign them airplane at birth.

youdontknowme Who says thats the notion? Who says that everyone who posts this meme supports it? Many things can be poked fun at, the fact that the entire gender stuff came pretty much out of nowhere a couple of years ago or the fact that many genders are actually more like character traits than actual sexualities, or a copies of each other, the fact that genderstudies exists and that there are some social media "influencers" who may or may not have capitalized on this trend and so on.
There are many interesting, funny and questionable things about this phenomenon but to instantly throw a fit when someone posts a copypasta (which in itself should tell you that nothing of this post is to be taken seriously) without even knowing their intentions, just cause some sweaty Neckbeard doesn't like trans people or whatever and used it once , is just insane to me. Not being able to handle entry-level banter just makes a very, very bad impression of you.
Because here is how I feel about that stuff: I don't care, do whatever. It's legal, have your fun.
Hell, even a singnificant part of 4chan doesn't give a shit at this point and they are some of the most hostile creatures on this planet and spammed that Copypasta on mass.

I see the problem in the fact that many are simply insecure and therefore very sensitive. Jokes are very quickly hurtful. And that doesn't have to be the case.
Of course it's nice when others have the same sense of humour, but that doesn't have to be the case. I think you should just accept that and let it rest.
By the way, I have problems recognising your jokes as such. That may also be due to the language problem.
BikelockFugitive or the fact that many genders are actually more like character traits than actual sexualities,
this is of course an interesting question, it could also often be the case that men and women who do not feel that they belong to their biological sex describe themselves as non-binary because the stereotypical characteristics of a man or a woman are not present. however, then society would provoke people to perceive themselves as non-binary.
Joh By the way, I have problems recognising your jokes as such
me too, reads more like a naive saying than a joke
Voted A-sexual, because before the belt I didn't have any real attraction to the other person, just wanted sex.
But now that its been off limits for almost 4 years, I have started to feel an actual attraction towards others and have a desire for a relationship now, it's not just a shallow craving anymore, if that makes any sense. So it's affected my sexuality for sure.
