What is a gay man?
A gay man is a different gender of humans, a combination of male and female genders. Gay men aren't men, but they aren't women, either - we gay men are in a class of our own. This mixture is simply a natural occurrence in nature, and all part of the diversity of life. Gay men can't go away or 'stop being gay' because, we are just a part of nature. And we were born with brains and body chemistry that are a mixture of two genders, observe any gay man and you can see how obviously true this is.
gay men are usually born with:
A female's heart, female emotions
more sensitive than other males, whether this is in a 'receptive way' or a projecting way, ie the macho bully archtype, gay guys let things 'get under their skin' more than most ppl.
A sex drive that's exactly like a straight man's, ie we like nasty throat fucks and spit and hot nasty sex for sex's sake stuff
The possibility to be just as macho as straight guys, but obviously it's not as pure, even if a gay man is good at sports and masculine-stuff, he still almost always knows how to write well and do gender atypical stuff.
Enjoy tv shows like charmed, buffy and xena, and stuff about superheroes. Enjoy lifetime television.
Great aesthetic eye for fashion and visual stimulants. Being addicted to pornography is common, as well as higher increase for drug and alcohol addiction and all forms of addiction.
Understand ideals very well, and philosophy and psychology. Natural brain for that sort of stuff. Not as good with mechanical stuff, generally.
Higher level of intuition, empathy, creativity. Lower levels of violence and aggression.
Isn't as adventurous as straight men, doesn't 'explore' a lot, unless it's for a sexual thrill. Prefers stability and peace. Great at making music because 'getting lost in one's own introversion' is great for making music, as well as writing.
Sure, gay men may have a lot of masculine qualities, and we do- but we also always have a lot more female qualities in us, unlike regular men. This is natural and explains why gay dudes love being taken care of and 'swept off our feet' like women do.
((Straight guys don't talk about their feelings all Oprah-like like gay men do, sorry they just don't. they are tougher, because they are more man than you- but this shouldn't be viewed as a negative thing either. Gay guys are just DIFFERENT, and that's OKAY.))
Therefore it's pointless to get defensive over stereotypes since stereotypes are based on truth. However, it is hurtful when people mock gays because they are exaggerating our natural girlishness. this can be funny but at the same time nobody likes to always be the joke, so instead of getting all emo about it tho, just do it back to straight guys. =)
K some things need to be pointed out.
Now for my response. First this. Is this a joke? I know random shit is posted on hot topics all the time and people like to be sarcastic asses at times. But do you honestly believe this?
A gay man does not have a women's heart, woman's emotions and is more sensitive. First off some people in general do not wish to show their emotions and some do. Some are able to feel more than others do. Some like to feel more than others. This applies to straight, gay, bi, trans, woman, man, and so forth.
Second. Have you EVER heard of teen angst? You ever see all those emo kids getting so sensitive about every damn thing whether or not they are straight and gay. You ever see that sometimes masculine men such as jocks have absolutely no self confidence or inner strength and just create a false image of bullshit and macho-ness. And than any little thing pisses them off.
Yes some men do keep things inside and don't talk about things. These type of men who don't talk about their problems, keep things inside, try to act tough fake, masculine, and so forth. Those aren't even real men. Those are a bunch of pansy ass cowards. Those are the real faggots if you will. If you really think that those types of people are more macho or cool like. You need to see the world.
You are partially correct that stereotypes are based on some truth. But it might not be the whole truth or just part of the truth. The ones who scream the loudest, the ones who wear drag, the ones who act fem, or artistic. They are going to get the spotlight and do you know why? Because those are the ones that feed the stereotype which you and others believe in. That way you don't have to try to understand and explore gay people. Why bother because gays are just a bunch of sensitive sissy artistic pacifists right?
Let's face it. You rarely see a butch man represented as someone who is either a role model or someone in the gay spotlight or media. It's always the twinks, the drag queens, the models, artists, singers, and etc. However not everyone turns to those role models or figures. Some people use non gay figures. Figures or models who represent masculinity, strength, and responsibility. If someone wants to model themselves after the stereotypes because they don't have anyone else than that's either their choice. But let's be realistic do you truly believe that everyone is like that?
If gays are so introverted, so artistic, and so intuitive than do you really think we'd be that retarded stereotype you labelled us as? Ask yourself that.
And the way you wrote this really sounds like a joke or that you are just being an ass. Especially the sex part.
And for the record I'm gay and I like punk, rock, metal, dance, r&b, pop, and even some oldies. I don't give a fuck about glee, desperate housewives, the jersey shore, and dancing with the stars. I like shows that are violent, stupid, controversial, offensive, funny, serious, fantasy, and mystery type. I don't care for twinks that much or muscular guys. I love older guys and furry guys. I have no sense of rhythm, I can't swish, and I'm a gamer. I also fucking love sex. Fucking, sucking, kissing, vanilla, passionate, rough, kink, anonymous, voyeur, and so forth. I'm much more adventuresome and driven than just in the sex area.
And fuck Martha Stewart and Lifetime television. Oh and yeah. I'm not bad at making pastries
I'm not butt hurt or emo because of you're post. It's just that I honesty did at one point think that most gay men are just a bunch of feminine and sensitive creatures. But once you look past the stereotypes, make some gay friends, and immerse yourself in a community, family, or relationship, you'll see that not only are gays creatures that are totally impossible to comprehend in every shape and form. But that people in general are just about the same. I recommend you burn this paper and take the F for not turning in an assignment and right about something else. Explore the world more and I think you'll think much differently than this narrow minded view.
it cold out there
