Redd er xeverxsleepx, who also self-intifi as a gay cel, nfirms this. In xeverxsleepx’s experience, most other cels he has spoken to onle were straight, “anti-gay”, and likely to downvote gay ers.

But now, ‘cel’ is cultural shorthand for a muny bound largely by rage and misogyny – and, cintally, the same is often (although not always) te of ‘gay cels’, who generally glorify masculy and vilify femy the same way as their straight unterparts. This pattern was intified by Redd er zanmato1109, who also happens to be a PhD ndidate, and summarised a mi-say: The New Internalised Homophobia, or, Revenge of the Gay Incels.
