GAY RIGHTS BABY SPONGEBOB GIF

The reason so few of are bisexual is bee society ma such a big stk about homosexualy that we got forced to seeg ourselv as eher straight or non-straight. Gays will beg to turn on to women when 1) 's somethg that we do bee we want to, and not bee we should, and 2) when women's liberatn chang the nature of heterosexual relatnships.

The existence of a lbian uc wh the New York Gay Liberatn Front has been very helpful challengg male chvism among gay guys, and anti-gay feelgs among women's lib. The married guy who mak on the si secretly; the guy who will go to bed once but won't velop any gay relatnships; the pretenr at work or school who chang the genr of the iend he's talkg about; the guy who'll suck ck the bh but won't go to bed.

Self-opprsn: As gay liberatn grows, we will fd our uptight brothers and sisters, particularly those who are makg a buck off our ghetto, g on strong to fend the stat quo.

AFTER YEARS OF PROGRS ON GAY RIGHTS, HOW DID THE US BEE SO ANTI-LGBTQ+?

If we are willg to label ourselv publicly not only as homosexual but as sick, then we qualify for ferment; and if we're not ‘discreet’ (dishont) we get dmmed out of the service. At that pot, objectifitn eclips people, and exprs self-hatred: “I hate gay people, and I don't like myself, but if a stud (or chicken) wants to make wh me, I n pretend I'm someone other than me. And as for child moltg, the overwhelmg amount is done by straight guys to ltle girls: is not particularly a gay problem, and is ed by the tratns rultg form anti-sex puranism.

Police or n men who shake down the straight gay return for not revealg him; the bookstor and movie makers who keep raisg pric bee they are the only outlet for pornography; heads of ‘molg’ agenci and other pimps who explo both the htlers and the johns — the are the paras who flourish the ghetto.

2) a lbian uc is probably the bt way to attack gay guys' male chvism, and challenge the straightns of women's liberatn; 3) as mal we mt be sensive to their velopg inti as women, and rpect that; if we know what our eedom is about, they certaly know what's bt for them.

THE RIGHTS OF LBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL AND TRANSGENR PEOPLE

Some years ago a dignary of SDS on a muny anizatn project announced at an ial staff meetg that there would be no homosexualy (or dope) on the project.

And recently New York, a movement group which had a ffee-hoe get-together after a polil rally told the gays to leave when they started dancg together.

Gay Liberatn is stgglg for a self-unrstandg which would probe eply enough to the of our opprsn to give a clear visn of the forms and directns our stggle mt take. Wtman has provid an analysis of homosexual opprsn Ameri which lks the dividual-psychologil experienc of opprsn to the social and enomic facts which are at once the and effects of this suatn. Most importantly, Wtman's “Manifto” provis a clear statement of Gay Liberatn's goal: to ee ourselv as gays and to ee straight society as much as reprs s own homosexual aspects.

GAY COP

Liberatn of the head n never be more than a half-step, a transnal move, until fundamental chang are ma the stutns and cultural forms which create gay opprsn. This problem is pecially acute for our movement sce so much of our opprsn nsists precisely beg forced to choose between a personal life a gay ghetto or a -personalized life straight society — ually to the triment of dividual growth, no matter which optn is taken. The homosexual who his his inty for the sake of the polil movement, the good of his fay or whatever, is likely to n to the dilemma of all “borg om wh”; the abily to effect change bee he is not regnized for what he is or has actually fotten who he is himself.
