The rearch published the peer-reviewed journal Sex Rol is believed to be the first experimental study to monstrate stat sts for gay men who prent wh more feme than mascule quali across workplace hierarchi.

That means a person of any genr n be attracted to someone who intifi as female or who exprs feme sexual orientatn terms such as “homosexualy” or “heterosexualy, ” gynosexualy do not specify the person’s own genr relatn to their sexual orientatn. The ments tend to be filled wh a bunch of jok like "girl thats not your man" "idk he seems a lil gay to me" or pictur of limp wrists, thgs that imply that her partner is a closeted gay man and she's beg duped some way. As a bisexual trans man, I fd that at their worst, they n be regrsive, monosexist, or even jt pla homophobic- which hontly, is a b of a shame sce a lot of the jok are om queer (mostly gay) men.

And I don't want to imply that there are no feme gay men, or that closeted or ternally homophobic gay men don't form romantic relatnships wh women out of eher ternalized shame or safety purpos. My issue wh the assumptn that feme men are always secretly gay do the followg: · pletely eras bisexual men (monosexist, bi erasure) · n potentially imply that gay men n be easily spotted and that there's only one type of gay man (homophobic) · rerc the ia that a te and ial heterosexual uple has the masule man and the feme woman (opposnal sexism) · n imply that gay men are the secret predators or disguise to take advantage of suatns, which is a sentiment a lot of queer people al wh and fight agast to simply exist (homophobia, queerphobia).

This n attract homophobic attentn, which is possibly part of the reason why many gay men feel the need to ‘pass’ as straight; to avoid beg sgled out as a target for abe, judgement and discrimatn. However, the ncept of ‘passg’ as straight (or even as a certa genr if you’re trans) is highly troublg; impli that beg both feme and male, and/or homosexual is shameful and unsirable.

Historilly, homosexualy has been reprented – and even ridiculed – as a illy mp cliché, and so, unrstandably, many gay men wanted to distance themselv om such rtrictive, rctive stereotyp. In an overwrought attempt to pe such negative nnotatns of femy appears that, many gay men (and ed men general) have ventured too far the oppose directn, supprsg the feme sis of their nature the procs. Once we realise that femy and mpns aren’t flaws or weakns, that homosexualy is not e for shame, that masculy isn’t exclive to straight men and femy isn’t exclive to straight women, that genr is more fluid than rigid bary norms lead to thk, we will stop discrimatg agast those we should be showg solidary towards stead.
