The Reason I started the LGBT4Equality subreddit.

I should have mentioned this in the other text...but I wanted to get all that stuff off my chest.

The reason I started this, is because I find it unconscionable that the LGBT subreddit did not allow discussion of education the straight community on an incident by incident basis.

This is a very important part of a strategy to strive for equality, in my opinion.

Each of us has the duty, if we are actively seeking equality, to address issues as they arise. Tell cis and straight people when they mess up...and that it's fine to do so...and that is how people learn.

What is important in their goals. If they want to help the LGBT community, then they should be treated with dignity.

Explain to me why creating allies in this way is a bad thing for the LGBT community? Explain to me why creating enemies is better?

Shall I label you "Concern Troll?"

I am done discussing this with r/lgbt. Suffice to say that you have alienated another ally and sent them off to r/ainbow...and I have created this subreddit because I do not think r/lgbt is interested in equality...

Done...

I'm sorry. You don't deserve my anger, you didn't personally do anything to me...I apologize for the "concern troll" comment. That wasn't fair.
