Was unbanning Libertas the correct decision?

With the power of hindsight.

I don't think Gramps is a prude. I don't have much insight into his views in this particular case, but I'm sure he has his reasons. At the same time, it's not hard to tease out why certain other posters abhor the idea of someone suggesting a sexual encounter with a man (and a very unorthodox and submissive one at that) ended without causing extreme mental anguish. It completely demolishes their entire premise that interacting with a man must, by definition, be a terrible, scarring event. Once you knock away their foundation that sex with a man is a supremely traumatic thing, they have nothing at all to stand on. The reasoning is not so much anti-gay as it is anti-man, but for obvious reasons, the impact is the same.

Calling you that was almost entirely to get the exact reaction you've been giving me.

And again, the silent majority of Atlas gays (like nearly all sexually active Atlas straights) do not tell us about their sex life. This is not homophobia, this is Libertasphobia.

sexually active Atlas straights

These exist? I thought all the Atlas gays had daily gangbangs while all the Atlas straights were virgins.

Most (including yours truly) are, but the Bacon Kings and Gustafs and Polnuts of Atlas are much better at keeping their sex lives off a forum about election maps.

lol, BK and Gustaf have made plenty of posts about their sex lives...

stop your homophobic trolling SS

Well sure, but nothing about vomiting on their partner.

You've vomited on your partner? I thought you just said you were a virgin?

What the hell are you talking about? Why do you have time to flirt with a slack-jawed Clevelander and have orgies with Broadway extras but not to read a post?

The longer this argument goes on the more inclined I am to take Libertas's side. At this point it's difficult for me not to think he's being held to a different standard than somebody straighter or more conventionally masculine would be.

Going way back to when I joined back in '09, I remember discussions of one's sexual exploits were pretty much non-controversial, as evidenced by the BK post quoted above...as long as they were of the hetero nature.

In my uber-controversial story, not only did I admit to engaging in sexual activity with another man, I also made it obvious that I played the passive, submissive, "womanly" role in that activity.

So we have people who would loudly proclaim to be feminists and vehemently deny being homophobic or transphobic in any way (since gender clearly plays a role in this too) nevertheless attacking me and acting all disgusted because I'm a male-bodied person who played a "womanly" role and failed to "act like a man".

I never said this.

He definitely has the potential to be a good poster, but right now he just comes off as self-centered (and the whole retromike-fitzgerald-libertas thing is super creepy and should stop).

You have not seen his original incarnation. Other than now being politically and sexually agreeable to Atlas he has not significantly changed.
