Closet homo : A big pun?

Well i only agree with half of what hes said, but hes very right about rubbing the whole 'im gay' thing in peoples faces would onyl make them like it less. All my friends are striaght and they never need to rub it in my face that they are, so why should gay people do that aswell. Your right reading ti again some is homophobic but some of it isnt.

I bet none of your straight friends hide the fact that they are straight. I bet they don't hide their affection towards their partners. Yet a gay man doing the same is considered to be rubbing their sexuality in people's faces.

I think you need to get yourself some gay friends.
 
well i dont hide the fact im gay, the fact i dont rub it in there faces means its never had to come up.

Have you ever looked at the 'society' section of your local paper ... its article after article of straight pride! This straight couple engaged, that straight couple getting married, the other straight coule having a baby, another straight couple having a big anniversary. Prime time TV is like a big straight pride parade all night long, often with casual straight sex integrated into the plot lines "for fun".

Already we need to be reminded of the above, and how "gay pride" is mild/equal compared to the "straight pride" we (and especially straight people) never even notice.

If you're not going to say what you think (ex. "he's hot", "my boyfriend...", "being gay, I ..."), you may enrage fewer people, but you're not going to make any friends that really like YOU, just the filtered/censored version of you. There are many people who understand and get used to this "rubbing it in" once they realize how much of it they're doing.

Besides, we usually come to accept ourselves and be open about our sexuality later in life than straight people (who go on auto pilot since birth)...we would deserve some extra pride if we were going over the top, lol.

Reminds me of this (though the "rubbing it in" here is in politics):

(the last scene being the key)
 
I am no flag waver, but I also see no reason why I should not be 100% open and honest with people. If I am asked to supper I am going to take my BF, because we are a couple, as stright people would. I am not going to hide behind, half lies or mis representations, if I am asked if I have a Girl Friend, I say "no, I have a boy friend". If I want a picture of my BF as wallpaper on the computer, thats fine (Co. policy regarding wall paper permitting!) Why is there any reason that I should be embarrassed or try and hide these facts, and if someone does not like it, then they can do what they want, but I am not going to change to suit their prejudices. People can accept me for who I am am, or they can go their way, up to them. I am not going to live my life in hiding, or as if I should be embarrassed about something.

This no different from what a straight person expects in everyday life, and from what all people deserve in my opinion.
