An all welcoming place for Queer Memes of all varieties! Just laugh, be chill, and report anything you feel violates the rules.

Partnered with the Gaywave Discord Server — Check out more here.

Rule 1 — Be Chill. This means everything from just be respectful to no bigotry or discrimination of any kind. That crap will be crucified on sight.

Rule 2 — Naming Structure. Try to keep to the general 'Queer_Irl naming structure. Replacing queer with something you feel might be more appropriate is totally fine.

Rule 3 — I wrote this but got nothing. I'm sure I'll come up with something to stick here eventually.

=========

Pssst. AI didn't write this. I just really like em-dashes. They're neat and good for formatting. Alt+0151 baby. Eat my entire ass.

I love that explanation that goes "homophobic men are worried that gay men will treat them like homophobic men treat women."

i prefer the explanation that goes men have been in locker rooms and heard what shit other men said in grade school. i'd choose the bear too.

Hetero myself, but hung around lots of gay dudes for a few years. Them hitting on me all the time. I realized its not that different from a woman you are not interested in hitting on you. Just politely turn them down and move on.

I've been propositioned by gay men more times than I can remember. Literally every single cruise I've been on. Vegas, bars, house parties, and barbeques. I realize I give off the impression that I myself, might be gay, but I've been married for almost 20 years to a woman. I do not find any men sexually attractive.

Guess what? It's always a huge fucking compliment. I take it as I'm fit enough, dress well, and I'm seen as non-threatening. I always like to joke that I wish I were gay though, lol.

Then they get pissed off when you tell them not to flatter themselves
