They’re just making sure they AREN’T gay by having sex with other men.

Ain’t nuffin gay about gettin yer dick sucked! Thems the ones thatter gay for suckin em!

In the wisdom of the ancient Greeks, you're only gay if you're a bottom

Choo choo!!!

They are imposing their dominance on weaker men. It's not gay, it's purely about dominance

Your problem, Henry, is that you are hung up on words, on labels: "gay", "homosexual", "lesbian." You think they tell you who a person sleeps with, but they don't tell you that. Like all labels, they refer to one thing and one thing only: Where does a person so identified fit in the food chain? In the pecking order. Not ideology or sexual taste, but something much simpler: clout. Who owes me favors. Not who I fuck or who fucks me, but who will pick up the phone when I call. To someone who doesn't understand this, homosexual is what I am because I sleep with men, but this is wrong. Homosexuals are not men who sleep with other men. Homosexuals are men who, in 15 years of trying, can't get a pissant anti-discrimination bill through City Council. They are men who know nobody, and who nobody knows. Now, Henry, does that sound like me?

When actually most of them are crybabies

To be fair, they all cry on tv about how their feelings are hurt.

I think the guys banging them are worse. They're fucking us all in the ass....

Lots of homophobes are closeted, self-loathing gays.

Yes, yes they are. Through a friend I know a few trans and gay sex workers, and they make a killing every year at the RNC.

No, a lot of them really are, it isn't complicated.

Repress sexuality, sexual expression, codify a rigid set of norms around it?

It thus becomes fetishized, and this must also be a secret, because you essentially lose all your face, your social status, respectability, as s conservative, if you are outed.

We think it is ridiculous they are hypocrites.

They all know they are in the company of hypocrites, what they do not like is the tearing of the veil, the decomposition of the masquerade.

If it needs to be stated: I grew up in this culture and had to actively flee from it.

EDIT:

Also, this is why conservatives associate trans people and homosexuals with pedophilia.

To them, it all falls into one bucket of forbidden faux pas. It is all heresy, it is all sin, all perversion, differentiation is largely unimportant, in fact even attempting to make the differentiation explicit is often viewed as a sin.

Of course, again, this makes all of this into secret fetishes, which the power hierarchy of their culture will nearly always orient itself in such a manner to protect the power structure itself, very often by supressing reporting or punishment for say, being an active pedophile or rapist, be this in the context of a family, or a wholr chuch body, whatever.

Its all there when you look under the curtains, but their whole thing is worshipping the curtains, the conformity.

Psychosexuality is the root of almost all politics, prove me wrong lol.

Leaking it wouldn't really accomplish much because they'd just get replaced by more Republicans. But if they were blackmailed, that could potentially influence policy, or make the thief rich.

It's gay (or bi) MAGA men in the closet seeking hookups with people in other towns so they don't bump into them later at the grocery store with their wife.

These are the same people that will say shit like "removeds make me sick" and some probably even go gay bashing.

Their religion and culture have damaged their brains into rejecting who they are and what they want in life and will violently lash out at others who embrace who they are.

I'd feel pity for them if they weren't such horrible humans.

(Women used to use bumble a lot but like 90% of them were always marked as “just looking for friends” rather than hookups on their profiles)

I'd just like to say, as a woman who used dating apps a lot in my young 20s, I didn't put "looking for hookups" even when that's what I wanted. If a woman puts on her profile that she's looking for hookups, some guys become scarily entitled. For some reason some people think "wanting a hookup" means "I will fuck anyone who asks." Which is... quite the bizarre leap. Add in, such profiles get inundated with messages - some guys will react poorly if ignored, while others will react poorly if responded to but then rejected. It's a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation, with some unhinged folk who have your picture, name, and know what town you live in.

I quickly realized it was a bad idea and never chose that option on a dating profile again.

To be fair, this is not actually a graph of outages - it's a graph of the number of users reporting outages. What's more likely happening is that the service itself is working fine, but there is an outsized number of people having problems reaching the service, due to any number of unrelated factors (network congestion, individual device issues, temporary ISP outages or other internet hiccups)

This could happen to any service if the number of people trying to access it multiplies. If 1% of the time someone tries to access a service, there is an issue (even temporary), and the number of people trying to access that service goes from 1000 people (10 issues) to 10,000 people (100 issues) then it looks like there is a huge jump in problems accessing a service, when really the service is working just as well as it was before.

Replying to test. IDK what you're testing, but just in case it helps.
