I wouldn't have put "you just haven't found the right one yet" in the discrimination category. That strikes me as helpless and ignorant rather than structurally evil. But I guess it's the repetition of it.
The "good fucking" one I'm with you. That's awful. And the pride-internal groupthink is discriminating too.
Thanks for broadening my horizon.
"You just haven't found the right one yet" is a typical passive aggressive way of telling people that they don't know themselves.
So for me, a lesbian, I got "you just haven't met the right man yet" many times. Most of the people saying that didn't know how many men I have known.
