THE FACT NO ONE LIK TO ADM: MANY GAY MEN ULD JT HAVE EASILY BEEN STRAIGHT
LGBT is still a popular term ed to discs genr and sexual mori, but all GSRM are wele beyond lbian, gay, bisexual, and transgenr people who nsent to participate a safe space.
Speakg as a 22 year-old gay man, I n nfirm that makg through sendary school as a gay guy often sucks, and there are some difficulti that you won't be able to fd a way around. However, llege I found gay men who were all different lors of the rabow and a group of non-queer iends who actually took an tert gay issu and an tert me far beyond stereotyp.
THERE IS NO ‘GAY GENE.’ THERE IS NO ‘STRAIGHT GENE.’ SEXUALY IS JT PLEX, STUDY NFIRMS
I'm often the only queer person a room, I still enunter people wh homophobic views that they n't even nceive are any way discrimatory, and some days I feel like I'm livg a world that don't unrstand or value me. Take time to foc on your profsnal aspiratns, fd hobbi that you really enjoy, do thgs to treat yourself every once a while, take time to exercise and do what you need to do to feel good about your appearance for no one's sake but your own, and know that when you do face those difficulti associated wh beg gay, you will e out wh experience, self-awarens, and nfince that most of the populatn has to fd some other path toward.
Majory of heterosexuals assume that bee you're gay you will jt tomatilly be terted and click wh any other gay person that they throw at you or your way.

But ually who is gay don't have this hope, bee he often enunters many obstacl: maybe he don't want to let people know he is homosexual, bee the environment where he liv he might be accepted wh difficulty (the real trouble for a gay is not to accept himself, for he knows he's born wh this natural stct or disposn, and was not his choice, but beg accepted by society), or simply bee he feels unfortable to say . ), but classmat accepted him serenely as he was, while a boy who was a technil school (almost exclively male) was simply spected of homosexualy by classmat bee he did not look tough enough, and was spised and teased hardly. When I was young, I was told the whole world was divid to heterosexual men and heterosexual women, bar a small number of unfortunate ‘homosexuals’ of both genrs and possibly an even smaller number a third tegory, ‘bisexuals’, who ‘swung both ways’; pl, fally, a ty band of wretched creatur who were physilly not que one thg or the other.

All all, I’ve probably slept wh as many straight men as self–intifyg gay or bisexual on: I doubt most were lyg, and some s have reason to know they weren’t. In what pass for the gay ‘muny’, there’s somethg of a taboo about admtg, even to ourselv, that que a few of (not me) uld, wh a ltle axg and self-disciple, be ‘straight’.
There exist strong reasons for this taboo among gays: first, ‘we n’t help ’ was absolutely central to our early pch for equaly, and we need to believe .
