a) We were discussing a supposed pattern in someone's supposed relationships. The said person's orientation, whatever it might be is purely co-incidental. In the past Sri Devi was also a subject to the said discussion considering certain similar incidents in her life, and very recent Ananya Pandey as well.
b) Sure there might be certain nuanced understandings of the said issue, which we probably may be unaware or ignorant of. But how does it make sense of you to club us into the category of being Homo phobics? Ignorant...maybe, Homophobic?? I mean before going, "LMAO you all are such homophobics etc etc" would it not be better to actually counter us in a civil manner regarding our supposed 'Homo phobic' statements, instead of blanketing them as homophobia, just because the subject of the matter may or may not be gay? I mean of course you aren't obliged to, but still.
c) Also didn't you take on us for our statements by assuming someone's sexuality? As far as I remember Karan hasn't come out yet. So in a way isn't you also assuming about his sexuality, problematic?
d) Also last I heard the term 'retard' was also offensive. So you are fighting one offense by throwing multiple offenses back is valid?
See, if I have to talk only for myself all I can say is I don't care who loves whom as long as there is consent, respect and love. I genuinely don't see the difference hence I subject it to the same treatment of humor that I would subject any other relationship in. You can say this is me normalizing it. Personally I don't like to use the word normalizing, because when I'm saying I'm normalizing something or making an effort to normalize it, it just perpetuates the fact that there is a difference, wherein 'for me' it is just the same. Sure this might probably be a 'privileged' statement coming from me, considering I'm not the one at the receiving end of certain biases and stereotypes. But for now with whatever mental capacity of understanding that I have, all I can do is just speak for myself.
Again if my statements offended you in anyway, apologies for the same. Hope I have made our stance clear above. Have a nice day ahead.
