I literally laughed out loud. My bad. I do get why "cis" gay men may be pushed out... economically, gay men are at the top, slightly above men with wives, according to the statusofwomen website. Wealth is more important than anything else in our classist/capitalistic society.

The median annual earnings for women who live with a same-sex partner ($48,000) are considerably lower than those of men who live with a same-sex partner ($58,000) and lower than married men in different-sex households ($56,000), but higher than earnings for married women in different-sex households ($42,000) and women who live in a cohabiting relationship with a different sex partner ($33,000). Women living with a same-sex partner also have higher earnings than men cohabiting with a different-sex partner ($38,000).

it has to do with intersectionality so white and male are two strikes against you. one if you are a poc so there is that. victim status is the currency for the alphabets.

"Currency" implies that there's a system of trade in place. It's more like "if you aren't a beer-swilling caricature of a straight white guy, your job is to fret about trans people and carry their bags at all times ..... and the blacks' too, I guess."
