From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I can understand why all the other things would be listed here, and I would understand if sexuality in general was considered inappropriate for children, but why homosexuality in particular? This is strange to me.

I think people are really underestimating how bad some people are starting to feel about it. It's constantly being talked about it the news in fairly negative circumstances. Constantly being shoved in peoples faces, "Pride Parades" where people are walking around almost, (and in many cases fully) nude in the middle of the day. Media constantly being changed (and often for the worse) to accommodate the inclusiveness etc.

a lot of people are fine with this, but even I as a man who likes men, think it's absolutely disgusting to be walking down a public street with your dick and balls, or a woman's crotch fully exposed. but being against this makes me a "heterosexual bigot" somehow.

People are doing so much to generate as much animosity as possible against, and I'm really starting to hate this term myself, LGBT folk. Folk who just want to mind their own business, aren't allowed to anymore. and all of negative bullcrap, people ruining old media, walking down the streets naked, screaming at people for trying to mind their own buisness etc. all winds up getting tied to LGBT stuff.

This is what I mean when I have to tell people that I'm not one of "those gays" because I don't think it's right to do any of this garbage. And this garbage does make people hate the "LGBT" community.
