"The law needs to change, but we'll select to enforce it anyway!" What a slimeball.

You can't ungay people with force, donkey brains. This is how gay(and so on) movements have made the strides they have in the first place. You push against nature, nature pushes back.

I'm aware the people here aren't likely lining up to agree with shitty enforcement of old laws, this is just a rant to people who do agree with this sentiment.

I was thinking exactly the same thing today about trans people. Like no matter how deep your convictions against it lie, you're up against people for who it is a matter of life and death, a force of nature.

This is exactly what I imagined a US fetish club would look like.
