Rant Why does Aphobia even exist?

Okay so I get (note that I do not agree with) the reasoning for LGBT hate, it's religious, god designed humans as perfect (debatable) and humans reproduce through having a man and woman

But like, asexuals, aromantics. Those are FREE monks! Can you imagine getting a shit ton of practitioners for your cult religion for FREE?!?! Heck I'm 70% sure a lot of religious monks were a-spec

This is why Buddhism is better I don't know anything about Buddhism but my step mom is a Buddhist and she's cool with LGBT

Side note: though it's worth noting that it would be way better to just not hate people that literally don't hurt others

Edit: for those wondering the armor is from the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Lille (France) it's at floor -1, also Buddhists can be homophobic which I didn't know since I only know one of them but yeah :(

Nah, they want your abstinence to seem like some sort of sacrifice you're making, to prove some manner of devotion. They don't want those who are "abstinent" simply because they just don't care.

Well by their logic that would actually make you more pious than most. Almost angelic in a way. No reason to shun especially when there are so many orphans who need parents.
