^So in other words your saying (and assuming) that any and every "straight-acting" gay male is a closeted, self-loathing, hateful, homophobic person? I call 100% bull-shit on that.
That is no less ignorant or awful than the straight homophobic people who make wide-spread, blanket generalizations about gay people. Or that is no less bull shit than if I claimed all "non straight-acting" gay people must be old, catty, prissy, effeminate queens who drink martinis, go to musicals, and march in pride parades.
Again, I do not understand or get many in the gay communities need to attack or put each other down. Somehow my experience or life as a gay man is less pertinent or valid because I happen to be into some of the same things you would normally identify with a straight male? Again 100% bull shit.
I will never understand or get the attitude of "I'm gayer than you are" in the gay community that people often use to validate or comfort themselves with. You can think or claim I am a "special snowflake" but at the end of the day I am still denied the same rights as you are and still fight for the same rights as you do.
And sadly the gay community will probably not win those rights that we so covet as we are too busy tearing each other down over silly shit like who is "straight acting" and who is effeminate.
