  • A gay journalist says he was briefly detained by security after he booed President Donald Trump during the opening night of the musical Chicago at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, according to the Washington Blade.

    Emphasis mine.

    I have no issue with gay people, but why was it relevant to the article to call out the guys sexual orientation? Based on the article it didn’t seem to have anything to do with why he was prevented from exercising his first amendment rights. Is it just because the outlet is focused on gay, lesbian, and trans topics primarily, so they feel the need to bring orientation up anytime they cover something even if it has nothing to do with those topics?




  • Appreciate the feedback, you are correct I didn’t mean it in a derogatory way.

    I meant someone born biologically male that identifies as a woman but because of that underlying biology has some male looking characteristics.

    Perhaps just a very poorly way of saying “what happens when the black and white nature of the rule they have set runs into the reality of a woman that doesn’t look like a traditional woman, and the passenger has an issue with that based on their own expectations?”
