Look up the meaning.
Your logical fallacy is not my fault.
I don't. The one who "instinctually" believes it means something other than men hanging out are the people who think it sounds gay.
First, that's you inferring it from me not saying something, not me implying it. You're also wrong, in both that I don't think it and I absolutely called out the bar owner in my very first post.
I clarified the question, which you ignored.
The quote was clearly mean to offend; it was clearly an insult.
Personal bias and logic are too different things. My points are either wrong or they are right. Whether they come from someone who is biased or unbiased does not change whether they are wrong or right.
I don't think you know what an ad hominem is..... Attacking someone's argument is not attacking them as a person. Who was I attacking?
Lol, I think you need to relearn your logical fallacies.
Again, unsubstantiated. And you haven't explained how it would be homophobic.
Insisting a pro lgbtq website is being homophobic because one sentence taken out of context...
Because you didn't add any clarity, you just questioned what the point of context was.
Personal biases affect how you developed an argument in the first place.
Yes, and in this point of the argument you still haven't sufficiently explained how a gay person labeling something as gay is homophobic. You know the entire point of the argument.
Your biases are leading you to draw conclusions from information taken out of context.
