I thought about this long and hard and decided it's best for me to not bother posting in this thread anymore. For every one rational post looking to have a discussion I get two to three mocking post looking to incite anger and while they fail they do disrupt my train of thought. So while I was considering many of the valid posts the gravity of those I disagree with concern me.
I think this is a game and games should be fun. Even if that means that you get a toggle to turn everyone bi so you can play it how you like. Or one to turn everyone to traditional gender roles I think games should be about fun and not political statements. Nor meant to challenge your opinions, ideals or Lifestyle choices unless the game's storyline or gameplay is designed for that.
I don't see the offense but I do get that some may feel like they are being marginalized from the option of a toggle. But the reality is people don't have to accept you, they don't have to accept me it is their choice. I'd much rather make 10 friends who want to be friends with me rather then 100 friends made because of and from social pressures.

Ok I think I figured out that nonsense. You are asking for us to tolerate you while you are intolerant of homoesxuality. You think my being intolerant of you is showing that I'm being a hypocrite. If I tolerate you, that's showing I tolerate intolerance. If I tolerate what you say, that shows I have no problem with intolerance. However paradoxical it may seem, I can't tolerate your intolerant words because I don't like people who are intolerant of something that is a human right.
I myself have no problem with how people live their lives so long as it doesn't affect my rights, freedoms and etc.
Unknown to Gamer girl is the fact I've had friends take me to gay parades, pull me into parades gay bar hop with them it was wild, a bunch of craziness. I had fun I found them all to be funny, protective(women and men) and I always had a blast. But at the end of the day I'm straight and they knew it, they were homosexual and I knew it.
Their was no agenda we just enjoyed each others company. But I don't think everyone will have had the same experience I've had and tolerance must given otherwise people won't get to know the individual. Not Tolerating intolerance is in fact intolerance, I think so long as one isn't assaulted verbally or physically it's a none issue. As you can catch more flies with honey.
But too many people assault others over their view that's what needs to stop or we will never understand each other.
Anyway here's to hoping BW creates a game we can all enjoy.
Based on things you said in the past on this thread, what you said here was both contradictory, and complete BS. Either that or what you said in the past posts were complete BS. Take your pick of which side you're on, because it seems like you're having a bit of trouble keeping things straight if you keep flip flopping.
Also if what you posted here was what you were trying to convey by writing this:
"If you aren't tolerant of all up to the point of physical and verbal assualt then why should other tolerate you when you don't tolerate them but simply demand that they tolerate you ? And falling to "fall in line" illicits aggression(as I have seen). Your asking for what you refuse to give."
you need to learn how to articulate your opinion better because that was confusing wording at its best.
