Gay folks can be edgy shitheads too, though. I would not let any of my queer friends get away with using the word "gay" as a pejorative. I'm not asking that you push back against them, just understand why I choose to do even if you don't.
Not every gay person is a self-loather, kid.
Note: I had deleted my two comments because I genuinely did not want to offend, but when I realized that these "gay" observations, made by men my age who are simply glad to still be standing after the debacle that was the latter part of the last century, were being taken for internalized homophobia I put my comments right back. If anything they are celebratory and may they ever be so. Given what these guys have survived they have every right to be happy, and as far as I am concerned so does every gay person. Nothing wrong with being gay at all, and never has been.
So you need to sit down with that self-hating shit, because it does NOT apply to Every Gay Person Ever.
