Straightism...

[Rugbypup]

I wonder... homophobia is common and in some instances may even be the accepted norm.

I have a question for the staright guys out there, have you ever faced hetrophobia anywhere, any when in your life?

Have you ever been penalised for being straight?

 

[q'thulu]

Bulldykes hate us.

 

[avg_joe]

No. Personally, I don't hate gays because I have a gay cousin, a gay friend, and a gay teacher.

 

[deepwader]

bull dykes hate everybody except femme dykes. They even suspect each other of having a secret penis and rape fantasies!

We can't even keep homophobia out of a thread that is supposed to be about reverse homophobia. Jeez...

 

[DangerZone8877]

never seen heterophobia. the gay people i have encountered seem more open and accepting of people than most other people i have met.

I've experienced it from a few 'scene' people, but then their 'you could never understand what we've been through' wailing seemed to alienate my gay friends just as much. But generally speaking I'm with Bigbou in as much as most gay people I know have a healthy 'do what you want as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else' attitude.

Bulldykes hate us.

no, maybe they just hate you?

i have several "bull dyke" friends who are seriously some of the best people ive ever met(im thinking of buying an "i <3 lesbians" t-shirt one day), they hate no one, but rather live and let live. theyre even tolerant of people who think and talk with their ass.

Anyone else get a mental image of a bunch of men in dresses handbagging a straight guy to death for being in the wrong part of town?*

"We don't like your type around here..."


*I am aware that's a stereotype, but I thought it was a funny image.

 

[OmahaBeef]

I have...

I cannot fault one for being normally inclined towards their own, however, when there is a display of rudeness and biggotry BY them once respect is delivered by me then there is a problem, and it lies with them.

I have been in a male gay club with a female friend where we were told we weren't allowed in the main area of the club, I was very surprised because I thought most gay people called for tolerance.

I was in a gay club once with my boyfriend at the time! No one gave us any flak for being a straight couple in a gay club. We were there because we like the dance music that they play in a lot of gay clubs, and because I like drag shows (there was one that night). This was not a strictly male gay club though - maybe that makes a difference?

Going point, SP, however groups also like to have their santuaries. Men's clubs (that exclude women), "Women's Weight Rooms" in co-ed gyms, and many religious gatherings (to name a few).

It's a fine line to walk, and I don't think we have all the answers.

how sweet

 

[ganja4me]

I have never experienced that before.

 

[viking1]

I don't remember anything like that ever happening.

Only in LPSG Chat & the galleries. :redface: Occasionally a newbie logs in and thinks that only gay men are entitled to be members here. :frown1:

 

[D_smack ash]

No.i have gay friends.and have been hit on here and outside the site.i kinda of feel flattered.For being str8 i have never been made to feel bad.To each there own i say

 

[SpoiledPrincess]

I'd forgotten all about that nj, you're quite right, there are a few men on here who think the site should be exclusively gay, fortunately they're a very small minority.

 

[B_Hung Jon]

I've been to gay male clubs with my g/f but we usually go with other gay guys or girls & then we all dance together. I think it's cool as long as she & I don't disrespect peeps. I feel that gay folks need to have their space to be themselves without straights hogging it.
