Everyone who is afraid of LGBT shit, is secretly really worried that if they ever felt safe enough to try it, they'd love it. The internal shame they carry causes them to lash out wildly at anything even remotely entwined with the idea that LGBT is normal. Because then that means they could be sucking all the dick they want, but aren't because they're too cowardly and intimidated to follow through. So, instead, they firebomb churches.
Let history remark about all the ugliness thrown our way, boy, they really coulda used a cock to suck. At least in prison he'll be able to suck away to his hearts content.
While that may be true in many cases, it is important to remember that straight people are perfectly capable of being hateful, homophobic monsters. Placing all the blame of LGBT hate on LGBT people, openly or not, isn't nearly the whole story.
And it's the only oppressed group I ever hear this about.
You never hear that all of the bigots who hate Muslims secretly want to be Muslim. Because they don't. They're just bigots. But somehow, according to some people, every homophobic bigot out there secretly wants a big cock down their throat.
I could potentially see some racist people being racist because they're jealous of something; often something that's not even true, but a racist would believe. Like.... Black people are stronger because of slavery or Asian people being really good at math.
At the very least, telling this to a bigot certainly would piss them off and I'm all for that. Hear a dude using the N word? Ask him why he wants to be black so bad.
Although personally I've gotten hate from other LGBT people about as often as straight people, it's definitally a problem
bisexual moment?
I was mocking him, and to anybody who might be impressed by his acts, also mocking them (hopefully) out of their decision. Like, if everyone widely talks about how people who attack the LGBT community secretly love cock, maybe the next perpetrator will be too embarrassed to follow through on their plans. Especially if afterwards the only thing that's said about him and his evil deeds is "man that dude really likes suckin dick."
I'm not blaming LGBT people for LGBT hate. that's... yeah that's not it.
Yes, mocking him by calling him gay, as an insult. I understand you don't think that's an insulting thing to be called and that he would, but using it in a derogatory way at all is still more harmful than helpful.
I'm not calling you hateful or anything, I just wanted to point out the issues with this very common argument.
Gay isn't the insult. Secretly gay is. hes hurting people for doing something he secretly wants to do. it's the hypocrisy. you're reaching.
