    Honestly do any of us care that you think homosexuality is unnatural @BrandinoB Saying that we're unnatural is an insult. At the end of the day this squad is for people to come together and make friends. I personally would appreciate it if everyone could put politics aside and leave us alone? This doesn't effect you so don't go around calling us unatural. We don't need your comment. Also when you say we are splitting up the community. I totally reject that, this squad is a safe area for LGBT people to come together.

    @Jellyt0ts Brandino has obviously explained his point. He has expressed an opinion and reasoned it well in a kind manner. Now, it's arguable that my or his posts were necessary here because we're not trying to become part of this community but it's also arguable to make a deal out of that like you are doing.
    And for once, to stop this safe place bull, no one has ever been physically abused through his router, okay? I have seen 0 offensive comments towards Ell-Gee-Bee-Tee-Kew-Ai-Ay people in the global CTF chat or any of the team chats im merc for, either.

    Sentences like "we dont need your comment" kind of, hm, do create a certain tension at the end of the day, hm? And I wonder why that comment was given in the first place. Oh, right, because there's a thread on gender on a minecraft forum

    The thread at hand doesn't pertain to the discussion about Gender Identity nor the implications given through it, it is yet another Squad thread to promote people with a similarity: They are apart of the LGBT+ Community. The thread has been misconstrued into a topic of debate by those against bringing the topic to the forums.

    I agree Jelly was rather late and impulsive on Brandino's honest opinion, so I'd like to take his place and challenge his opinion:
    Long story short, homosexual activity is very apparent in "Nature". Looking it up on Google easily gives some examples:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexual_behavior_in_animals
    http://www.bbc.com/earth/story/20150206-are-there-any-homosexual-animals
    http://www.news-medical.net/news/2006/10/23/1500-animal-species-practice-homosexuality.aspx

    But if we want to go in-depth, "Natural" is a horrible argument for anything.
    What is defined as natural is so vague that it cannot be used properly in argument, as all action is brought about through usage of Nature. We are made of natural biomass, and everything we created is synthesized from nature. A species that is self aware of oneself's existence is far above the idea that they should keep to it's "natural" course in the advancement of civilization.

    When discussing what is Natural, we really mean the idea of Natural Law: What any given thing is supposed to do. This doesn't apply to human's, as we have no definitive purpose and the idea that we exist purely to copulate undermines the centuries of progression we have achieved that doesn't regard copulation.

    You are correct, who cares about it being unnatural? "Unnatural" is but another way to say Change, and without change human evolution would not have even approached the level of intelligence required to contribute to an absurd argument over what gender is meant to be. I can continue about how Gender is a social construct, and that what we see today is the pushback of years of rigid gender ideals that are finally being challenged by those who believe that gender shouldn't be associated with what parts you are given, but that would be far from the original point of this thread.

    God I've had such an awful week and while I usually I'd try to stay relatively uninvolved I'm tired of reading the comments on this thread. You say no one has been physically harmed through a router and while I could argue about possible self harm etc I won't 'cause I already know you'd have some counter argument for it but also I've no personal experience with it. But then you said you haven't seen anyone harm us in chat but I have to stop you there. I get hurt everyday in CTF. And no one outside of the LGBT community understands that or cares. Every time you guys jokingly use f*g & queer & etc as your insults (whether to your friend or a stranger) it ****ing hurts. I don't care if you mean it as a joke or an insult it hurts. Every time I see that I'm just reminded that that's what we are to most of the world- an insult. A joke. Not something to be taken seriously. You don't understand the impact you can have on us. My team doesn't understand the impact they can have on me.

    But this squad? This squad understands. This squad helps. Is it really so much to ask for everyone to leave us alone? To stop turning this thread into some debate? A joke? Because we're more than that.

    I know this wasn't as nicely worded as a lot of the posts here have been but like I said I've had a **** week, I'm in a bad head space, and it's 3am so I don't really care.

    ^^ you go ash <3
    Tbh I'm sick of getting alerts and just seeing it's more pointless arguments. Shut the **** up imo and let these people live their life. To state just one of the stupid reoccurring things; "exclusiveness". F*cking drop it because it's bull****. Did anyone complain about arrow squad or british squad and have massive, long debates on their thread? This is not a cult ffs. You've had your chance to say your opinion you don't need to keep going. Don't you people have something better to do with your time than to passively (or aggressively) insult the very core of who someone is??
    I think it would be a good idea if anything that wasn't application related or something positive could be removed from now on because maturity or intelligence apparently isn't a thing. \_o_/ and I'll personally report any lil **** who wants to keep ranting continuously on this thread. I rarely state my opinions on the forums but this is so ridiculous. kpce c:

    Everyone needs to take a step back from this. This thread was created for people to apply to the squad, not to start a debate about the topic. There has been rude remarks from all parties, who started it doesn't matter, every is accountable. If you'd like to debate about it, take it up in Off Topic, but this is enough. Please do not continue discussing this on this thread, thank you.

    I would like to request a fresh thread @xAsh

    I like having a positive atmosphere, and for the thread to be maintained as Quar mentioned.
