"Many gay men see trans-men as real men

Lol, actually, they don't. They just say that they do so that all you fetishistic weirdos will shut up and leave them alone.

But as one of the most privileged people within the LGBT community...

Very few gay men are wealthy. The majority of us, despite being a well-educated class, are often unemployed or underemployed. Kurtis, as an example, has dropped hints of coming from an underprivileged background and struggled to find stability in life because of the homophobic violence he was subject to. You, despite being an HSTS according to your other tweets, would probably get this and understand it if you weren't such a narcissistic void who treats the other gay men around you like NPCs.

This is what's so fucking infuriating - someone says "the definition of gay, which is male human + male human, is being stripped away by trans rights activists and it's taking away our language to describe our own life experiences," and the response is effectively, "You're absolutely correct and that makes you the WORST PERSON ON EARTH." For one thing, this trans woman has no place to be talking about the gay male community, and whether or not "many" gay men consider trans men to be men. For another, if any "gay man" considers a transman a man and enters a sexual relationship with that trans men, HE'S NOT A GAY MAN.

It's like that one guy that's on the current season of Survivor that has a pregnant "husband" at home. I told my (actual male) husband about that and his first response was, "So he's bi, right?"

Among my online gay friends, one pointed out that Ricard said he didn't even want to get married to a guy until he met this woman. Just like Benjamin Putnam (Bendelacreme), there's a variety of deeply homophobic and sexist bi men that will market themselves as gay and only end up with self-harming women while shitting on the gay men who supported their asses.

Fuck Ricard he's the worst!

Jeff: Is anyone offended by me saying guys?

CRICKETS

Next day: Ricard: My boyfriend will be really mad if I don't whine about being called a guy (which I apparently am) on national tv.

Why the fuck would either of you manly men care about that?? Oh yeah, his 'boyfriend' is a giant cu... oh well better censor myself now I really don't want to get banned here.

That was so annoying and over-the-top. Jeff just LOVES to virtue signal. Like, I'm not mad about specifically not saying "guys" anymore, because it's just a word so it's whatever. But if Jeff was being genuine, he'd have just... stopped saying guys and not made a big fucking spectacle about it, going, "Look at me, look at me, I'm so great, I'm so with it, lol I'm gonna get so much hate over this everyone!"

Although I did find it funny that after that whole thing there was a scene just a few minutes later where one of the tribes is at camp and a boat comes up and someone says, "Hey come look guys!"

Felt like the editors deliberately threw that in just to undermine Jeff and it was subtle enough to slip by.

BenDeLaCreme is married(?) to a transman but still calls himself gay, yes?

During season 6 of RPDR, he referred to himself as "gay" and "weird" as a teenager.

... doesn't change their truth.

Where did this awful idea of there being equally valid, competing truths come from?

Postmodernism. It's more than just epistemological relativism, though. It's a conspiracy theory that claims the very idea of objective truth is a tool of oppression designed to maintain current power structures.

Nice, Kurtis is back on Twitter.
