Gay boys do better academically than their male and female peers; queer girls and women do worse.

Gay boys are neither male nor female. Cool. Good to know.

Why are the boys gay but the girls queer?

Because women tend to practice this stuff more than men maybe? I still have gay male friends who have always been pretty against the queer theory stuff. Meanwhile, a lot of my lesbian friends have been lost to this cult, calling themselves queer or any other identifier under the sun instead of 'lesbian' and regurgitating all these talking points.

I'm sure your lesbian friends regurgitate these talking points only because of all the dogpiling they will risk by the transbian crowd for speaking out against "queer theory" and not wanting to "suck girldick". I know lots of women actually are quite against this cult privately, but they don't speak out about it for fear of cancellation.

But alot of lesbians also push this bullshit to support their "gay trans men 4 gay trans men" friends (former butch lesbians), and "queer/nb lovers". Because they have female friends and lovers who've been lost to the cult themselves.

Wow, that's so sad.

I don't understand what people have against butch lesbians. Holding butch lesbians in lower regard is still homophobia. I know lots of butch lesbians in my detrans group whose lives have been ruined by transitioning, and it's so sad.

Exactly! This drives me insane and I've never understood this issue with butch women. Personally, I love them (I married one) and have always found them attractive. I had an ex who flirted with the idea of transitioning and it made them into a massive piece of shit. They started 'acting like a man' in every negative way possible and I got the fuck out.

They don't have anything against them, they just want more tucute recruits for the SJW world order. So they convince people to transition who shouldn't (using their "social construct" argument) which of course results in real gender dysphoria.

Yup, that's certainly the case for me. I don't know enough other lesbian women IRL to get a good sense of how many of us there are who are like this, but I think it's probably common among straight women, too. Or at least, that's the sense I've gotten so far.

I see more straight women being against it and I'm sure a lot of it has to do with living in the suburbs near a big city. There's a push to be as progressive as possible simply because you don't have the clout of living in the city anymore. At least where former lesbian friends of my own are concerned, it seems like most of them don't seem to want to grow up and become 'boring'. They must 'queer' everything to justify their lack of motivation or success in their career or personal life. Or maybe they really just believe in this shit. I have no idea.

They phrase it that way but the entire article is about gay men and women.

[–]lunarstrain 13 insightful - 1 fun13 insightful - 0 fun14 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

If they didn't phrase stuff like that, this would be a decent article, in my opinion. It's about how sexuality and gender role adherence/defiance impact education and therefore income.

Very interesting to see how much more academically inclined and financially successful gay men are, at least according to this.

In about 2000 I would browse message boards and see tons of posts from gay guys in high school who were afraid of their homophobic family and community. They were afraid of being disowned or kicked out when they turned 18. I would basically spam the same message to all of them. Study as hard as possible to get a scholarship to help pay for college, go into STEM, and if the family kicks you out move to campus and use the LGBT center on campus to help with housing during breaks. I know i wasn't the only person doing this either. Even back then the TRAs we're there but they were always talking about useless petty shit and not many people listened to their crap.

For some reason gay girls don't seem to face the same fear of being outcastes from their own family.

Some of us do, unfortunately.

It does seem like a lot of straight men tend to direct more vitriolic hate towards gay men than they do towards gay women, though-- and they also seem likelier to express that hatred in violence than straight women.

Because girls have a lot more biological worth than simply being a means of reproduction. This is also why their lives are so much better in almost every way except for having periods, which I think are grossly exaggerated, and why the whole world rushes to solve their every inconvenience while forcibly sending young men and teenagers to hard work and even war, and reprimanding their "whining" and calling them selfish pigs when they need help with the depression and psychological trauma this causes.

But maybe I'm just biased, real men want to be men.

"Men in same-gender relationships earn more than both their female counterparts and heterosexual couples"

Thanks for erasing homoSEXuals again!

Yet heteroSEXual is still okay apparently

Hearing that phrase like that makes me reminisce about Magdalen Berns. She was so good at cutting out the BS.
