Such largely witty tweets seem to have rather swamped #LGBTfacts. One of my own favorites was this from Queerpup: "Lesbians aren't allowed to go to school parent's evenings because they eat the pasta from the kid's art display. Or this from Bex Bellingham: "#LGBTfacts Lesbians are awarded a Black and Decker power tool by for every 5 straight women they convert."
Take this, from Mike Stuchbery: "When cornered, the male homosexual can shoot glitter into the eyes of an attacker to blind them. Within an instant of cogitation, they seem to have decided to offer some more facts to the #LGBTfacts hashtag. It so happens that, astoundingly, certain members of the Twitter community happened upon this feed.
Here's another: "In fact, AIDS in America originated in a small group of homosexual men in San Francisco, LA & NY. So who would be surprised that there appeared a Twitter feed called whose intention is to offer, well, facts about the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community?īecause Twitter feeds are also subjective, you might wonder about the definition of the "facts" part of this feed.įor example: "Pedophile priests in the Church are closet liberal homosexuals acting out fantasy & trying to tarnish Church's rep #LGBTfacts #lgbt #ssm." There are many sorts of selves in the world. Twitter encourages self-expression and prides itself on not censoring that self-expression.
