I’ve definitely met gay men who hate other gay men that they think “act gay,” and they’re pretty much always racist and incredibly misogynistic, too. I can see them thinking they’re different and special enough that the leopards won’t eat their faces. And then they usually cry about it when no one wants to sleep with them.
To be clear, I haven’t met that many, but as a queer woman, the LGBTQ+ community is sadly not immune to being as shitty as any other. I had to specify no fucking TERFs on my last dating profile.
Ah yes I believe they usually say “I don’t mind other gay people but I wish they wouldn’t make it their identity. You don’t see me flaunting my sexuality”
The best thing about the queer community is that they are just like us and any other community and every community has their shit bags.
I’m just always extra sad when I see Republican women / queer folk, because they are actively hurting their own community. Being a woman and voting to have a rapist have a say over your body is just mind boggling to me.
I think it’s best to not think of them as hurting their own community but rather as intentionally spurning community with those with whom they share experiences. There are queer republicans who are just the idiots, but for these types it really feels like they’re angry about being different and have decided to take it out on those who have built community around those traits.
I’m reminded of Roy Cohn who insisted he wasn’t a homosexual because homosexuals are weak and pitiable, it didn’t matter that he exclusively had sex with men, he saw no issue in purging the queer people from the government
