Regardless of whether the leader was trans, I wouldn't join a GSA club period. Even if it was run by real gay men. Because -

  1. Not all of us are "out" and want to be, some are secret and content that way.
  2. Not all of us use our sexuality as a defining personality trait
  3. Not all of us find sexuality interesting and something worth bonding over
  4. Not all of us support "pride" and LGBT movements
  5. Why go to that when I can go to a club that's actually fun and productive?

Especially number 2. I always found specific sexuality based place as boring and pathetic. Sexuality has never been a defining trait, and even if isn't exactly a secret, it's not even something I will reveal thoughtless. My relatives still don't know that. Even in more accepting places, people will see you differently when they know.

It's very much a secret for me for personal reasons, but even if it wasn't... well my straight friends don't go around reminding everyone that they're straight, they have a big Straight Aesthetic Identity and that they have tons of straight sex every day to STICK IT TO THE MAN, so yeah.

I don't think there really are "accepting places." Not that I personally want acceptance, really. But the way I see it, homosexuality is viewed one of two ways. Disgusting illegal sinner, or OMG YAAAS QUEEN UR SO PRECIOUS, PERFORM FOR US. Neither are better than the other, and weirdly, sometimes it's even a mix of the two.

Yeah,you are right. We maybe got something in common: both homosexuals allergic to gay spaces lol

I think today west is accepting, but a lot of people will still see you strangely if you tell them, because it's out of the ordinary. Not to talk about the same sex people who will think you want to sleep with them and mistake you being kind with sexual interest.
