Interesting how this seems to happen every single time there's a large gathering of Republicans.

Lots of homophobes are closeted, self-loathing gays.
I mean sure, sometimes I feel like that narrative is blown out of proportion. But maybe I’m wrong. It’s more fun to think that’s how it is though, for sure.
And yet, so often, the loudest anti-LGBTQ voices turn out to be gay, and the loudest protect the children voices turn out to be kiddie diddlers or CSAM producers or hoarders. Often, where there is smoke there is fire and Republicans do a lot of smoking.
True.
Smoking poles.
If you are confident with your sexuality, why would it bother you what others do? It is not like it can switch who you are attracted to.
The only exception I see are the people who got convinced that gays can influence that their kids will be gays. That's a bit harder to convince it is a bullshit.
if that's how it works, then just influence your kid to be straight again, "problem" solved.
You don't understand: teh gays are just cooler than straight people, so the kids are powerless against their 'rizz,' and boring straights can't hope to compete.
That’s so funny, I’ve never heard it put like that but that’s exactly what a lot of them think.
This is especially crazy thinking in places where being gay is hell (in some especially bad ones even punishable by death). If it was a choice, why would someone willingly choose that, when being straight is so much easier.
That IS how some people think it works, which is why conversion therapy gets pushed. I appreciate that you were joking but it would be lost on anyone you're actually talking about.
Yeah, your logic follows. Maybe I’m wrong.
Every time my mom is transphobic, she says something that makes you think 🥚. Last time was talking about how bad female fat distribution is and how she'd like to take T.
Female fat distribution is much healthier than male fat distribution. There are a few reasons why women live longer on average, and this is one of them.
I wouldn't care if its less healthy. I don't that matters enough to even factor into the question.
That's all fine. It was a random fact, I didn't mean much by it.
How else can you explain the phenomenon in the headline? It's genuinely not the first time a large GOP event crashed grindr.
Self-loathing bisexuals.
"If I can choose not to be gay, so can you."
