To be fair, I blame women for that partially. Because the massive culture of getting a "gay best friend" is what laid the groundwork for that. And they will push that shit on any even remotely effeminate dude friend they know.
So in a way, its another "women's dog bites her" movement. Like the pitbulls they all obsess over.
A good friend of mine turned out to be gay. I keep telling him he is a cunt for turning me into a fag hag.
Pitbulls. Don't get me started on them. I am 1000% against banning any dog breed. I'm even more against putting them all to sleep just because they are pitbulls or pitbull-like. But FFS, it's not rehabilitation to let weakass, undisciplined, inconsistent, crazy people who can't even control themselves to adopt dogs that are very strong, bred super shittily AND have a history of being raised badly.
This will probably be controversial, but people who brag about their 75 mental illnesses and history of being totally nuts, taking a bunch of psych medication, etc. should not be approved for adopting pitbulls or even any dog at all.
I had a pitbull as a kid. Well raised and sweet thing. Miss her to death. But she always knew her place in the pecking order and it was "dog."
But it feels like 1 in every 5 20something girl has a pitbull who is clearly the "man of the house" and she treats like the baby she can't have. It defines their entire personality, like a lazier horse girl. And god forbid you be a man who comes near her, even if she is inviting it will not be.
Even more controversial opinion, pitbull girls are often girls who are too cowardly to date the thug guys they clearly want. The traits cross over immensely, and both put forth the vibe of "I tame exotic dangerous things with my gurl power."
A friend of a friend is a pitbull girl. She is mentally very unstable (up to constantly talking about killing herself) and just generally not well.
She has zero control over her dog. She could teach it to pick up trash for social media points, which is nice, mentally stimulating a dog in a way that feels like play and fun to it is always good. Feeds it complete meals she cooks that look like human food.
But she can't control it at all in tense situation. That dog hates other dogs, which again, happens. Mine also dislikes most other dogs. But. My dog is 10 pounds soaking wet and she listens. Like I tell her off and she stops. If worst comes to worst I can just freaking pick her up. That girl's dog is a giant and if it's on the move she can't do shit to stop it. If you, your kid, your dog or anything else is in its way... shit.

Seconding everything here.
