* benjamin gay linkedin *
Lately, mors about the Amerin sger-songwrer Alec Benjam beg gay have been gog on around.
Dpe beg a very well-known face, Benjam has kept his personal life que private, which has led people to make assumptns about the about the sger beg gay have been circulatg for que a while now. Even the all-male environments that I’ve equented, om golf urs to gay bars to locker rooms, I never enuntered the kd of btish sexism that Donald Tmp broadst as he mpaigned for office. And yet I know his ntug sults agast women are not sgular; attacks are fterg om a wi st of misogynists, om the Llie Moonv type to the “cel” type to the Alabama statehoe is forcg some soul searchg on me — namely nontg the worseng attus toward women next to the rapid-fire gas of gay male liberatn recent years.
If any group has been steadfast s support of gay men, is femists.

In return, are we gay men who claim to be femist really so? You know that social lore that valoriz gay men as more refed and more sensive — so athetilly superr to everyone else? Knowg que a few gay men at the top of their profsns — media, fashn, philanthropy, amia — I wns a aterny of privilege ightengly different to the backlash agast women.
Gay men might march toward universalized marriage and child-adoptn rights. But that ethos shouldn’t sce gay men to downplay genr-based prejudice.
