No this isn't about an actual fight nor a thread for said people to fight each other here, as that would be extremely stupid. xp

Which is harder to be socially in your opinion? They're ALL double minorities.

(Yes I know black gay atheists exist and they OBVIOUSLY have it harder than the others, but I thought it would be interesting seeing which double minority has a harder time socializing). You be the judge and please explain why.
Gay atheists.
For the most part, black society and culture is accepted more then either the Gay or non Christian organizations and religions.
In b4 black, gay atheist.
I have to say gay atheist.
Gay blacks.
Gay atheists are around all the time
Black atheists can happen quite a few times, too.

Gay blacks... never heard of 'em and doubt they'd be accepted much in the ****** part of blackhood.

Agreed. I think a Mexican gay atheist would have a harder time though. That's because even regular Mexicans are like Mondays- Nobody likes Mondays.

Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays
Is this a serious discussion? Oh wait this is Gaia...
I would say that gay blacks have it the hardest. People would never know you were an atheist unless you told them. Ditto for being gay unless you are steriotypically gay. Everybody can see that you are black though. Now I hate to say this because it comes across as racist, but I think that blacks have a tendancy to be more homophobic than whites. So a gay black person would struggle with acceptance from the whities for being black, and he would struggle with all the races for being gay.

Now I am a gay atheist (well agnostic actually), and it isn't easy, but it really isn't that bad either. I think if anything, it would be harder to be gay and religious. You would be rejected by religious people for being gay, and alot of gays would reject you for being religious. You would have to justify yourself to both groups you want to be accepted by. I don't envy someone in that situation.
Lesbian black woman, who is ugly, fat, in a wheelchair, deaf, and poor. She is also a LaVeyan.

She has it hardest in my opinion.
Blacks have already overcome most descimination.

Gay Atheists.

Athiests for first are the number one distrusted minority (But it is harder to descriminate against them, unless they say they are one...or you become convinced)

Gays are probably right behind Atheists, and they're much more obvious and easier to descriminate against.
None of them really have it harder as their second defining feature isn't something that's outright visible unless they're protesting or flamboyantly gay. In face, I don't even get why Atheists are even listed as an attribute that might make life worse. I've never met an artiest who's gotten s**t for being an atheist. I've met numerous Christians, however, who've gotten s**t from atheists just because they're Christians.

Edit: Scratch that. Out of any of them, it would be gay blacks, particularly if they're heavily within the black community. Seeing as, unfortunately, homosexuality is something that is incredibly looked down upon within it, chances are they're going to end up getting a lot more s**t for it.
I actually don't have many problems with my Atheism. However, most religious folks have a problem with me being Gay. I always felt more freed by Atheism than anything else. It allows me to be a good person. And I can sleep better at night knowing I am devoting my life to living and being a good person than being only the visage of a good person. Much like living on merit more than words. But growing up it was very hard being gay. Kids were raised by their parents to be just like them. Most in my area were raised as Christians(which when teaching a child about religion, they aren't going to understand it all the way, so they morph it into something else a lot of the time). So of course there were the Gay bashings. And they continued to hate me without much knowledge as to why other than "It's just bad". Teaching a religion that through most of it's existence was cruel to children(who by their very nature are cruel) usually ends badly for anyone who wasn't raised that way.
I guess gay atheists. i haven't heard too much s**t about people being black, but I've sure heard s**t about being gay and/or atheist.

Within the black culture being gay and black or atheist and black would be more difficult. It's funny how the democrats biggest supporters are infact the wholly religious black community.

Gay atheist is nearly redundant. Because atheists live inspite of religion, so it only makes sense for them to be gay.

But you know what's really difficult? Being a straight, Christian, white male, who has consentual missionary position sex with his wife.
