If you aren't, do you wish it was more socially acceptable if it isn't in your culture?message-squaremessage-square147fedilinkarrow-up1207arrow-down116

minus-squareeldavi@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down3·edit-210 个月前 I can’t seem to shake off the loud “It’s Gay” inside my head when something like that happens. a very small part of me is glad i’m gay when i encounter one of the many ways that straight men are so terrified of being perceived as gay. it’s a bit like watching the video of a child freaking out in shallow water because he couldn’t touch the ground only to be corrected by being pushed into standing; except that this casual homophobia has MASSIVE impacts on people’s psyches and how they treat others.
