THE ANTI-GAY AGENDA

Samson/Tnk ArchiveWhy n’t straight men stop obssg about gay people? Maybe they should terrogate their own prient terts other people’s love, get at the root and figure out why the ia of male timacy ril the past few weeks, several rappers have ma sensive — or full-on homophobic — statements about gay people.

Fend DaBaby, sayg that gay people had gone om beg bullied to dog the bullyg, simply bee they had mand acuntabily om DaBaby, urgg him to apologize and phg mic ftivals to drop him om their lps. About a week after DaBaby’s rant, Boosie Badazz, a hip-hop artist who me up the 1990s, went after Lil Nas X, one of the rare rappers who are openly, unapologetilly, explosns-of-glter gay, threateng to asslt me say first that the untry has quickly evolved on the acceptance of gayns, and that clus an evolutn among Black people.

THE MOST EFFECTIVE ARGUMENT AGAST GAY RIGHTS

But as acceptance and visibily rise, those the mory who feel threatened by gay people have grown lour. They talk apolyptic terms about a “gay agenda” sted to rec throngs to a gay “liftyle.

”Let’s clarify: Beg gay is not a liftyle that one n choose, like beg a jet-setter or a bohemian; is an immutable feature of a life. Also, there is no explosn of gayns simply bee gay people are now more visible than they once were. I don’t see a gay agenda this story but an anti-gay first, let me say this: Whenever I enunter a passnate homophobe, my md immediately foc on his passn.

Why would a straight man vote so much time and energy to hatg gay people? ”In other words, some homophob outwardly attack that wh which they wardly battle.

ANTI-GAY

I have always ntend that all of the -isms and -phobias are s, that a society that creat a hierarchy of humany wh whe, straight, cisgenr men at the apex, every person who is not whe or straight or cisgenr or male gets assigned a lower orr of that sense, racism and sexism, homophobia and transphobia all branch om the same one bias n fluence and amplify a society that treats racism as a sport, which each racial group is jockeyg agast the others, all of them shadowed by a culture of whe supremacy laced wh misogyny, anythg that rc your percentage of straight mal or “femiz” them is seen as weakeng the Black people bee agents agast Black power and Black liberatn, a weight on the this dulent this is adopted, traracial terror picks up where terracial terror left off. It is not the gay Black person who be an stment of a whe supremacist attack on Black masculy; is the Black homophobe who be the stment of opprsn agast his own is important to pot out that the racist and the homophobe often employ the same tactics. Homophob often e the same tactic, claimg that they are protectg children om is precisely the fense Boosie Badazz ed when appearg on “The Breakfast Club” rad show, at one pot seemgly exprsg a fear that if rappers didn’t speak out agast certa exprsns of gayns, an entire generatn of children uld be aga, to clarify: There is no amount of exposure that n make a straight man prefer a penis or a gay one prefer a vaga.

If that were te, wh all the straight love and affectn gay kids are exposed to, they would all be turned straight by the age of 5. Sexual attractn and sexualy jt don’t work that this simplistic notn of sexualy oms is that there are also gay children who have known they were different for as long as they have known anythg, and those children serve reprentatn and visibily; they need to know that there is nothg wrong, broken or evil about them, so that they, too, n feel normal and seen.
