Gay men and misogyny; Lesbians and biphobia
I've noticed a big problem in the LGBT+ community specifically between gays and lesbians and I feel like it needs to be properly addressed. Firstly there are many gay men in the community, who for some reason feel the need to hate on woman to validate there own sexuality. You don't even know how many gay men I've talked to who will show disgusted towards gender the whole female gender just because there not sexually attracted to woman and I find it very weird. For example I was talking to a guy in class and somehow the conversation moved towards sexuality he started talking about how he glad he wasn't straight because he wouldn't have to go through the "disgustingness" of watching an woman push a baby out her vigina, I thought he was joking at first so I kinda laughed but then he continued and went on about how woman fluids are gross and other stuff like that. I called him out saying how it was ignorant to write of something natural that many woman go through as gross just because he don't understand it. I thought he would be understanding but he just continued to be unnecessarily rude to a whole gender just because he wasn't attracted to them it made me feel very uncomfortable. That just one example but there are many small things like how a handful of gay men have no problem commenting and criticizing woman's body's and talking shit about woman in general. I think alot of time these time of men get a pass because there gay but I think we should acknowledge that gay men can be misogynistic too and that hating on a whole gender just because your not attracted to them is hella weird.
Okay on to my second topic lesbians and biphobia. I see way to many lesbians who will straight up be biphobic toward bi girls just because they are into men. There are really some lesbians who think that the only way they would date bi woman is if the hate the fact they they are attracted to men or lean more towards woman then they can get a date. Like no sis theres noting wrong with liking men and woman and bisexual woman don't have to hate the fact that they are interested in men to date you. Honestly like for a while it seem like a trend to hate on bi woman in the lesbian community because they were just "confused or faking it" like bisexual people are real and valid and I hate the fact that biphobia is so common in the lesbian community. I think this ties into the fact that these types of lesbian are not attracted to men so they think any bi girl attracted to men it not going to be good for them. I think that logic is so weird like bisexual woman like men and woman and theres nothing wrong with that.
Anyways that was my long rant about these two problems that I've noticed in the LGBT+ community. I don't know how many people are going to see this but please don't be scared to put down your thoughts on these two subjects. If you agree or disagree that fine, I love hearing others opinions lol.
Absolutely agree omg. I had a gay man (a “friend” of mine) physically sexually assault me (when I was still in the closet about being trans) to “prove he was straight” in front of his friends. Blatant misogyny that gets excused because they (gay men) are also oppressed. No amount of oppression gives you a pass to oppress others. That goes f......
