TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

@jawa21@startrek.website for realizing that the line used to be "want to be added to the sidebar?" and capitalized on it. Congratulations and welcome to the sidebar. Stamets is both ashamed and proud.

My mother in law has no problem with M/M but complains about lesbians (says it's disgusting) - I then assumed homophobes are bothered more about gays of their own gender in general.
That's fair, most people who are loudly anti-gay tend to be male. Mostly because the "loudly anti-gay" group tends to overlap significantly with the "anti-women- group.
A lot.of anti-gay males are afraid of being treated the way the cis guys treat women as just a sexual object.
I also see a lot of anti-lesbian stuff from women. Tbh, I see more of it in my own personal life than I do anti-gay men, but that's just my experience, I don't know if that's also the reality (I imagine it varies by area/culture too).
And yeah I agree with your theory that people seem more bothered about same-sex relations for their own sex.
I'm curious. What area / culture are you in?
I live in a relatively impoverished area in the north east of England, although I'm originally from India
