A HANDY GUI TO ALL GAY MEN
The gay world is often reprented as some sort of monolhic whole that has the same culture. That is a lie. It is actually broken down to a handful of substrata to which each gay belongs. Here they are. * gawker gay *
That said, when the gays see a fellow homosexual the public sphere, we try to plug them to the nvenient taxonomy the muny has ma for self. They may not be very faiar to the world at large, but they are certaly faiar to the brothers butt say that each gay person belongs to one of the typ is a b ceptive.
Dcriptn: This young breed of gays is never over 30 and tends to be on the queeny si and hews closely to the nventnal stereotyp of gay man.
WHAT'S UP WH "GENR CRIL" GAY GUYS?
* gawker gay *
Wild, ornery, and still gettg over their g out issu, the twk is the gay gone wild, and is ba to olr men who are to tryg to suck off their youthful energy. Celebry Example: This is such a specific type don't really exists the world at large, but the Platonic ial of a circu boy is DJ Brett HenrichsenGay-Listers.

The drag queens are not only the urt jters of the gay muny, drsg up like clowns for our entertament, but they are also a bridge to the straight world. The LGB Alliance, a chary found by both gay men and lbians which has been scribed as a hate group by a number of proment figur and anizatns, remas the most notor example of this velopment, but this year also saw the lnch of a trans-exclive media outlet, Lbian and Gay News (there is no news about bisexuals, I gus.

HOW TO KNOW WHEN GAY RUMORS ARE TE
By now, you've likely heard how Peter Thiel parlayed a $500,000 vtment Facebook to a stake now worth $750 ln. There's been a csh of verage on his $220 ln Founrs Fund, which may well change the way entreprenrs get paid the Valley. We know about his mansn (he rents — clever!), his butler, his early-morng jogs. But what no one ever says out loud: Thiel is gay. * gawker gay *
The UK’s high rate of homelsns amongst LGBT youth, the risk of portatn faced by gay asylum seekers, or the fact that homophobic hate crime has soared sce 2015 — all of the issu fall outsi of the LGB Alliance’s rem, favor of more prsg ncerns like “ensurg that people are asked about their blogil sex while fillg the cens” and “makg harr for trans people to change their birth certifite.
” Gay people Bra n breath a sigh of relief that an anizatn is here at last to advance their terts, all of which, for some reason, volve antagonisg trans people. Havg succsfully persuad pole society that “TERF” is a slur, the Brish anti-trans movement now aniz unr the banner of “genr cril” — a phemistic moniker ma nsirably funnier by the fact that nobody is more cril of genr than someone who 's a certa kd of gay man who embodi the genr-cril vibe. ” He’s not pecially terted gay culture, and stead prefers the standard fare of middle-brow English liberals: Gee Orwell and The Great Brish Bake-Off; Solzhensyn and Strictly Come Dancg; edy panel shows lled “I’m Aaid I Haven’t the Foggit!
However, stark ntrast, I fd the transphobia of so-lled ‘genr-cril gay men’ utterly self dulgent, nsirg that cisgenr men tend to hold the most stctural and terpersonal power wh LGBTQ+ spac. “For some of them ’s all jt a post-hoc jtifitn for regular populatn-level transphobia, ” he says, “or a symptom of beg too-onle or too much other people's bs (classic gay tras). ” There seems to be the ncern that if gay men lump ourselv together wh trans people — a group subject to greater discrimatn — we risk beg damned by associatn.
GAY SCERY IS SRY
It’s a very succsful sort of divi-and-nquer where straight society tells a certa — often more middle-class, wealthier — strata of gay men that 's on them now to make sure that the weirdo are kept at bay so that the really sry queerns, the msy, le-blurrg stuff, don't force that straight society to roll back all the gas civil rights there were ma the late 20th and early 21st century. ” This brand of anti-intarian transphobia has yet to make ser -roads wh the Brish left, gay or otherwise, though that’s likely jt bee beg anti-trans is a wholly tablishment posn the UK.
”Frankly, I thk the ia that trans men beg on Grdr pos some existential threat to cisgenr gay men is ls a se of misguid anxiety and more a se of wishful thkg, ” says Shon. ” While I n’t speak for the transmascule muny, ’s ed hard to image they’re clamourg for the amoro attentns of the middle-aged Dr Who fans who talk about eatg “emergency biscus” and, any se, live anti-trans gay men also hate the the word “queer, ” which they sometim refer to, Tumblr Teen style, as “the Q slur.
” In prose that would make an unrgrad creative wrg workshop blh, one Lbian and Gay News ntributor argu, “As words go, [queer] is a sharp bla, the wounds leav are msy laceratns that don’t heal neatly rather than clean surgil cuts. It hardly needs sayg that “genr cril” gay men don’t pay any ference to the hurt feelgs of the people who disagree wh them, nor are they reluctant to leverage accatns of homophobia agast their crics. ” And yet…Beyond the issu, “genr cril” gay men make a larger and more apolyptic claim: the existence of “genr iology” means that gay men will eventually be ma extct.
PETER THIEL IS TOTALLY GAY, PEOPLE
This is a well-worn talkg pot: transphobic men, gay or straight, love to rell that when they were young, they were always a ltle b different. The fear that gay men will be “transed” away rts on the premise that there is a signifint hort of homophobic but trans-enthiastic parents who would rather have a trans child than a gay one.

The men are speful and staggergly unchic; they’re wastg their liv the worst possible way— luckily, as a gay man, I am allowed to say Greig wr about culture and society.
