Another one of this idiots comments:

Gay men are not oppressed. Gay men are still men. Gay men have never been denied the right to employment, property, money or control of their chattels.

That comment is so weird and out of touch with reality. I don't really like to play oppression Olympics because it's just silly and we are all in this together but for her information, does she even realize that gay men have always been target #1 for homophobia both in the present and the past? Gay men significantly face hate crimes more than the other same-sex attracted people, and usually when somebody says "I hate f#gs" they honestly just mean gay and bi men.

Again, I don't like to play this game because same-sex attracted individuals have to stick together and homophobia affects all of us but...c'mon, if you want to play it first at least say something that makes sense.

Gay males don't even have the right to be alive in some countries.

People have been fired for being gay or even being perceived as being gay in many countries, including many countries that now have gay marriage. We couldn’t even serve in the military in some countries, and some still don’t allow us into their militaries. In many countries, a lot of gay men weren’t allowed to inherit from their deceased partners despite being mentioned in the will. Thousands of gay men even lost custody of their children just because they were gay.

Anyone can be oppressed, but don’t pretend that gay men have always had it easy everywhere.

I keep thinking there's a need for a "guess which one it is: radfem or TRA" sub...
