Now you can let everyone on Xbox Live know that you're a fag

A change to the Xbox Live code of conduct this morning now allows gamers to express their sexual orientation in Xbox Live profiles or Gamertags.

The new policy states:

"You may use the following terms to express your relationship orientation in your profile or Gamertag: Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Transgender, Straight.

Other terms regarding relationship orientation are not allowed. In addition you may not use these terms or any other terms regarding relationship orientation to insult, harass, or any other pejorative use against other users."

Furries and pedophiles are still discriminated by those Microsoft fascists.

 

[Unkillable Cat]

It's also missing "nonsexual", which describes a very large percentage of the X-360 gamerbase.

If you're on Xbox Live then you're already a fag.
What's the big deal?

 

[Secretninja]

In addition you may not use these terms or any other terms regarding relationship orientation to insult, harass, or any other pejorative use against other users."

Then what is the point?

 

[FeelTheRads]

Notice how "straight" is last.

I'm a minority.

 

[Gragt]

Straight is the new gay.

 

[Awor Szurkrarz]

Yeah, there's no logic there.

Also, no "Rapist"?

 

[Destroid]

How on earth is transgender a sexual orientation?

 

[FeelTheRads]

I believe their logic was something like:

First lesbians, because they're feminists and they'd sue otherwise.
Second gays, because they're totally cool and happy and they don't mind.
In the middle the bi people, because they don't care either way.
Then transgender, because you have to put them too somewhere.
And finally straight people who couldn't argue the position lest they'd be called politically incorrect.

 

[Yeesh]

How on earth is transgender a sexual orientation?

It's a "relationship orientation", which means you're so oriented as to only be able to have relationships with people who aren't weirded the fuck out by transgendered folks.

 

[spectre]

No, it's sexual orientation, says it right here.

Or is screwing trannes an orienation from now? Though it was a fetish.

 

[LazyD]

Tranny is a sexual orientation b/c either way ur gonna be a fag.

If you begin as a man and change into a woman it doesn't change the people that you sleep with. If you were originally a man sleeping with women and then you became a post-op.. You are still going to sleep with women and be a tranny lezbo.

Thats how my GSA friendly g/f explained it to me. I still don't understand.

There's one thing that has always bugged me about these things, and LGBT in general. Why does "lesbian" even exist? "Gay" is already a word that applies to both males and females. I've not found a commonly-used word that applies solely to male homosexuals, yet females have their own. Why is that? What should a female put down if they are homosexual in one of these sorts of situations? Both "lesbian" and "gay" are wholly accurate.

And this is how I came to the conclusion that the whole LGBT boatload of nonsense was itself sexist. Like I needed more reason to ignore it.

 

[MetalCraze]

Lesbian because all feminists are ones and they can't share shit with those walking cocks who don't want to fuck them because they are fugly

There needs to be a way to distinguish between 2 gay men fucking and 2 gay women fucking for porn purposes. Therefore, a new word is created.

How on earth is transgender a sexual orientation?

It isn't. Sexual orientation is seperate from your gender identity. It's just that there is some overlap in terms of the kind of issues that come up from having a "queer" sexual orientaton or gender identity, so transgender gets lumped into the LGBT(QIA) -- the acronym is constantly growing which is one of the reasons I think it's retarded -- acronym.

 

[anomie]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lesbos is why lesbians are called lesbians btw
