In many countries where gay men are executed, lesbian women are forced into marriage on a man, and they may have kids, and so on, this does not mean they love men at all and happy in marriage, they just does not have the choice. Or situation could be similar to mine, where it was a way to stop the violence "look, I am normal, like you", that does not mean I romantically or sexually like that man (or any man), it was just way to stop the violence against me and it was hope "maybe I can start loving men, so problems would just go away". And actually later in life fact that I was married saved me from corrective rape, as people were "she was married, and is just lost now or experimenting" and stopped on just beating me to show that "you are wrong dating women and go date men now".

LGB

Together not because solidarity, but because our problems are because of similar reasons, and our goals are almost identical. Not because any other reason. And this is main reason why TQ+ should be dropped from LGB - we have no similar problems, similar goals, similar experience with them.

n many countries where gay men are executed, lesbian women are forced into marriage on a man, and they may have kids, and so on, this does not mean they love men at all and happy in marriage, they just does not have the choice.

But that's not "comphet" either. That's arranged marriages, and rape. "Comphet" specifically is privileged radfem keyboard warriors whining that their experimental phase was "literally brainwashing and oppressive."

Also I'm not sure if the "where gay men are executed" bit was an attempt to get me emotionally invested, but regardless: Those types of coutnries usually have problems all over, not just against gay people but against everyone.

I also lie and say I'm straight, even to this day. Still not "comphet" nor anyone forcing me to do it. It's my choice. I can choose not to do it, if I wanted to, but I simply don't want to. People wouldn't like it if I claimed that this choice was actually something I was being forced into, because people would say I was being overdramatic and ridiculous. In fact I quite often get pressured to "come out" a lot and have people tell me I don't need to be scared, etc. But I'm not scared, or being forced, this is just my choice.

but because our problems are because of similar reasons, and our goals are almost identical.

But they aren't. They're wildly different. I can barely relate to other gay men, let alone bisexual people or lesbians. That's not me being hateful, either.
