minus-squaretheangryseal@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up23·17 days agoThis is the part I try so hard to communicate to bigots when they go on about how gayness is just in fashion these days. I’ll pass them this article. That straight world they remember so fondly existed because they pushed men like this into the closet with their bigotry. They’ll probably say something like, “Well they flaunt it and shove it in my face now.” I wish the world would just be cool.
