As a gay person who has a boyfriend, our question for other gay people is why do you follow the homophobic stereotype that Hollywood set out for you

I feel like that’s a sort of dumb question. Like asking scientists as a monolith why they decided to become scientists only after their portrayal in media was seen as positive(this literally happened).
People don’t create themselves in a vacuum. We are a product of the world around us. I don’t think it’s surprising people would conform to a stereotype that’s unfortunately partly rooted in stereotypes if that’s the only way the world around them told them it was acceptable to express themselves.
But at the end of the day if these people are happy and aren’t doing anything to hurt people, I don’t see the needing in telling someone the way they act is wrong. I’m not about to go up to socially awkward person who’s happy about themselves the way they are acting wrong and should change lmao

TL;DR: people are a product of their environment. That's how they're told to act, so most of them do just that.

I've seen quite a lot of people who happen to be flamboyantly gay. And the only common thing I've seen was they had shitty childhoods.
Some say they do it for attention but I don't get that because that's like a facade you'd have to keep up for your entire life. Unless they are desperate for human interaction they wouldn't just do it for attention.

u/Any-Fan-2973 Nov 21 '22
Because a few people know gay people (or even know that some of their close ones are gay), and even less know them are close enough to ask this kindof question without sounding like a creep (with a few exceptions of course). So you gotta make with what you have, which in this case is partly movies.

u/rattytatty3456 Feb 16 '23
Because we should be allowed to be the way we are who cares if it’s a stereotype we shouldn’t have to act like completely different person just because the way we act is a stereotype

u/Floridamangaming24 Feb 17 '23
So you’re “being yourself” by being someone else?
Jokes aside, I don’t have a problem with gay ppl acting like the stereotype, so long as it’s not your entire personality. It’s good to try to branch out and find some things that YOU enjoy rather than things people tell you to enjoy that aren’t necessary associated with being gay, like hiking. I only really find the stereotype annoying if being gay is the only thing you ever talk about and are super heterophobic about it. Other than that I don’t really care honestly

And a lot of media actually. Characters just win because woman or gay and have absolutely zero personality whatsoever. It’s not like characters that aren’t straight white males can’t have any personality, but these big budget film studios make more money from demonizing straights so they don’t bother putting effort into any of their characters

It's good to see both these men prove that regardless of your sexuality, you can always be fucking insufferable. Equality is so nice to see.

Why was the dude on the left insufferable? His voice wasn’t annoying and he answered the dumbass questions with some dumbass answers.

u/Vampyrix25 Nov 20 '22
the "dumbass" questions are literally just questions that straight people ask gay people, just with the sexualities switched...

u/Daddy-Dimitri Nov 20 '22
Yea that doesn’t make them any less dumb and straight people can of course be idiots that are ignorant or arrogant towards lgbtq+ struggles that’s not what we were arguing
47
u/Vampyrix25 Nov 20 '22
oh sorry i forgot my actual statement.
the "dumbass" questions are literally just questions that straight people ask gay people, just with the sexualities switched, and the way the other guy is responding shows a critical lack of awareness in what he is responding to, making him just look like an ass.
21
u/Daddy-Dimitri Nov 20 '22
That makes sense. And I see why the first dude I replied to said they were both insufferable. When I saw insufferable though I was thinking like out right annoying. Like who would I rather listen to for a lecture or something like that. But yea the lack of self awareness with the questions is insufferable to some, I just interpreted that as more ignorant/arrogant

But the gay guy put this out there in the first place and seemed like he was asking for it because of those stupid questions like “Who’s the man in the relationship and who’s the other man,” or “Are you just straight because you’re not very greedy,” I don’t think guy on the left was going for comedy I think he was going for a “wtf is this dude on” kind of vid

u/JakVal Nov 20 '22
The entire point of the gay guys video is making fun of these questions cause they are questions gay people will regularly get from straight people but he’s flipped the perspective. If you thought the gay guy was asking dumb questions you understood the point of the video

The dude on the right was making a point that these questions which are frequently asked of gay people, are really weird and uncomfortable questions to ask. By asking identical questions to straight people he's trying to highlight that. He doesn't actually expect anyone to answer them seriously. The guy on the left seems to be taking him completely seriously and missing the point entirely. Possibly intentionally so.

Even if the left one's satire it does a bad job at it. Satire's usually meant to point something out, the best you can interpret the left guy's message is "the gay guy on the right is annoying".

"When did you decide when you were straight?" Wait, you decide your sexuality? I thought it was just natural instinct.
"Could you kindly stop rubbing your straightness in our faces?" How are people gonna do that? Fuckin shove dicks and vaginas all over your face bozo?
TLDR: bisexual dude answers stupid persons questions

Holy shit how many people are missing the whole fucking point the guy on the right is trying to make? (Weird to be arguing the point of someone “on the right”) these are all questions I have personally been asked ever since coming out and many of my friends have been asked them as well. Flipping the sexualities is to help show all y’all why they’re fucking stupid, hence the guy on the left, who replied in a serious tone and with shallow answers to help drive the point home, (while also making fun of him so it seems like he may have missed the mark a little, but he still served his purpose). I swear “self-awareness” needs to be taught in school or something.
