Example:
Tom: It’s 2025. You can do what you want and it doesn’t mean you’re gay, straight, or bi. No labels, no limits.
Jerry: I agree. Wow, look at that guy. He’s beautiful. His girlfriend is so lucky.
Tom: That’s his girlfriend? No way. Look at him! He must be confused.
Jerry: Didn’t you just say that it’s 2025, and people can do what they want without being labeled gay or straight?

This is what I’m talking about. I always hear that there are no labels, and yet, the same people that say this will turn around and say, “he’s definitely for the boys, just look at him,” or “she’s definitely for the girls, just look at her.” You claim you’re progressive and then you perpetuate the very ignorance that you claim you’re against. Doesn’t this contradict the point of “be who you wanna be without any labels”?
Comments
Just because people say it doesn’t mean they believe it. You can be biased without realising it.
People are far less logical that what they think they are.
There are a lot of biases that we have and we don’t ever notice.
They can be surprised; it’s if it makes them angry that you wanna look out for

It just surprises me when a man is confident enough to have a traditionally feminine interest. It’s nice to see it out there though, needs to happen more.
