Everybody here reacts that same way when it comes to their fav . So there is no need to single out a particular fandom . Evetybody here is a bloody hypocrite

I was not even "crying" as you put it .Nor did I say anybody has some personal vendatta. Can you stop twisting somebody s words? Its just that i dont find it cool to make fun of ayan s loneliness specially when society contributes to it

Everyone is trolled to some extent yet no other fan has referred to the members here as bloody hypocrite...at least I haven't seen that recently happening.

If you don't find the jokes funny doesn't mean everyone has to agree with it. Stop with the name calling.

*These people*

LGBTQ are not from Mars. They're human like the rest of us. Same virtues and same moral failings. Some are great, most are decent most of the time, some are bad. Like heterosexuals.

And yeah, 10% of men are supposed to be gay on average. Which would mean there are about 70 million gay men in India and about the same number of lesbians. They are as Indian, as Hindu/muslim/christian/sikh/atheist, as rich/poor/middle class, as smart/dumb/lazy/hardworking as Indians who are straight

Everyone on this forum assumed that Deepika was going to pull some attention seeking stunt. The assumption wasn’t made to mock heterosexuality, or married women or women with depression. It was made specifically about the person Deepika based on how everyone has perceived her to be. Same with Ayan. No one is mocking the LGBTQ community or Ayan for being gay. People are making jokes at Ayan’s expense specifically because it’s long been accepted as an open secret that he’s in love with Ranbir.

It has become a new trend among Ranbir fans here to interpret any mention of his equation with Ayan as some kind of a homophobic attack. I’m curious as to whether this just a “let me defend my favorite” tactic or some sort of projection on their part.

Right. And *these people* was not about passive-aggressive otherizing.

In case you seriously didn't understand:

"These Indians* are so...

"These black men" are so...

"These lower-caste women" are so...

Try to complete any of those sentences without feeling like a bigot.

And then people wonder why LGBTQ community is struggling to find their place.

I understand your frustration M.Wheeler... But for as long as I can remember, Lord_Voldermort has been a supporter of Gay/LGBT rights on the forum. They have always educated and shut-down other members when they express bigotry. I staunchly remember this. Therefore I don't think they were being homophobic themselves.

It is a very fine line between what is considered acceptable and what is offensive sometimes, due to the circumstances. Sometimes the only was is to judge on a case-by-case basis, taking everything into account. And therefore I do not class LV's comment as homophobia.

Other people though, mocking Ayan or Ranbir for not "coming out" about their alleged relationship are in fact offensive in my opinion.

There are a whole lot of things wrong with whatever you said. That being said, just because a lot of people doing it, it doesn't make them right.

I acknowledged that I was wrong about bringing heterosexuality as an example. I shouldn’t have that done that. But I stand by everything else I said in my original post. I never made the argument of “everybody does it” therefor it’s OK. I said, and I still say, that making jokes about Ayan’s years long love for Ranbir is entirely about him being in love for years and not moving on. I have not seen anyone bringing any homophobic tropes into the discussion here on IF in recent times.

As someone who is openly and actively part of the LGBT community (I've even worked in organisations catering to their/our needs in my last job), so I'd like to express my point of view.

Fair enough. It's just that mocking Ayan for his loneliness is not right when society is responsible for why he can express his love publicly
