You ever go so deep in the closet that you give Bill Clinton a blowjob? Hate it when that happens

I think it's why Liberace was mentioned. In the closet and (what I would describe) as gay with bad taste.

Please stop stereotyping us like this. We are not all a bunch of fucking Queer Eye characters.

Omg I hated that show… I’d like that saw the bit in Queer as Folk that was amazing at being super critical of commercializing gayness and they decided to make a show out of it like ā€œwait, but what if we could actually make a shit ton of money off of stereotypes?ā€

That's fine, but having heard so many times from openly gay people statements like the following, and I quote,

"Gay."

"That is SO gay."

"Gay."

"Gay!"

"Oh. Yeah. Gay."

. . . you have to accept that at a certain level of commentary, the call is coming from inside the house.

TL;DR: I don't know what looks gay because I am some self-proclaimed cis-het expert on gayness; I know what might look gay because I was personally tutored by obviously authentic experts in the field. Just sayin.

Gay folks can be edgy shitheads too, though. I would not let any of my queer friends get away with using the word "gay" as a pejorative. I'm not asking that you push back against them, just understand why I choose to do even if you don't.

Not every gay person is a self-loather, kid.

Note: I had deleted my two comments because I genuinely did not want to offend, but when I realized that these "gay" observations, made by men my age who are simply glad to still be standing after the debacle that was the latter part of the last century, were being taken for internalized homophobia I put my comments right back. If anything they are celebratory and may they ever be so. Given what these guys have survived they have every right to be happy, and as far as I am concerned so does every gay person. Nothing wrong with being gay at all, and never has been.

So you need to sit down with that self-hating shit, because it does NOT apply to Every Gay Person Ever.

I am gay, i have great taste. I consider myself in the know enough to inform you not all gay people have good taste. Some have no taste. Some have bad taste. Some have really bad taste. There is this bias thing going on where you only notice the times your belief is confirmed. And yes, many people with great taste are gay. But there are exceptions. Some people with great taste aren't even the slightest bit gay. Not sure about Trump though. I consider him someone who definitely has a taste. And all the gold is quite gay. The amount of gold in his penthouses is so extreme it must be some sort of kink. It's beyond overcompensation. Him being gay would explain a lot.

Just some context:

Trump's (and Roger Stone's) political mentor was notorious mob lawyer and gay homophobe Roy Cohn, whose death by AIDS was dramatized in the acclaimed 90s play Angels in America.

Cohn, and conservatives in general, always denied that he was gay, rationalizing that he only enjoyed sexually dominating young blonde men. That wasn't the same as being gay. Okaaaay...

Bottom line is that at the time of their mentorship with Cohn, both Trump and Stone were young blonde men.

Do with this information what you will.

I find that a lot of straight liberals will practically foam at the mouth to identify a Bad removed that they can be homophobic towards.

Remember all of those homoerotic images of Trump and Putin that libs loved to be openly disgusted by?

Has anyone ever encountered the concept of Bisexuality on this website?

Also I don't think he paints his living spaces in Gold because he's queer. I think he does it because he's an arsehole who wants to appear like a Pre-revolution French Monarch or Middle Eastern Dictator. He's extra in that sense and queer in the sense he has no picture in his Grindr profile and randomly sends twinks dick pics when he's not on the Deep web.

No they don't. Usually gay people have taste and eye for fashion. They wouldn't wear suits too big or decorate like this tacky monstrosity.

Do you know how misshapen and lumpy Trump's body is? That man's tailor is a miracle worker to turn that into "wtf is that" into merely "oh, the suit looks too big".

Ok, fair point. But again, his taste is horrible. I've seen gay people with a taste far from mine, but usually they have an eye for it and it makes sense. With Donny, it doesn't and it's just cheap and bad.

Isn’t the stat for any population something like 10%? So it would likely be more than just him.

5

That 10% thing was made up by someone in the dark 80s, and it just happened to spread afterwards. tbh I don’t think anyone ever counted gayness scientifically and I’m not sure if it’s even possible.

2

You can't project the % of gay people in the whole population onto the people in the position of president. Less then 2% of all US presidents werd black for example. Or maybe an even more obvious example, there haven't been 23 female presidents.

Nah keep that boy straight, we don't claim the tangerine führer

I start to get tired of these jokes, if they are jokes at all. What's to get from them, with them? While I don't think it hurts his base at all, it does occupy others and stirs some of them wrong. Like that meme playing into the stereotype of gay people being grotesque and shallow movie-esque characters. Playing with that bone thrown to non-believers is not productive, even Epsteing files are irrelevant because him sucking off Clinton or diddling kids in the past does nothing to his current reign, destruction of economy, mass imprisonment. He can eat a cock, a pussy, or shoot a person on Main St., but nevertheless the damage he does right now, his cult and his friendly elites are what really matters. His supposed blowjob is a nothing-burger, but also a cutting board to break lemmy-like communities around how homophobic these, present assumptions are, and they do sound ill-biased.

Man, imagine being Bill Clinton. He may become the first person to get two different presidents impeached because he got a blow job.

That group of men who were probably gay yet had turbulent relations with women.

Roy Cohn had several girlfriends and apparently thought about proposing to Barbara Walters. Everything points to him being gay. He was a bullying, brilliant sociopath. Helped out significantly with McCarthyism.

Trump. Just seems to use women, talks trashy about them, but can’t seem to have a decent relationship with a single one. Narcissistic sociopath, definitely not brilliant. Anti-socialist at least.

Possibly John Wayne. Beat the crap out of women, with several relationships and wives. Loved hanging out with men (John Ford and his buddies) Rabid anti-communist, also supporting McCarthy’s Red Scare.

Wonder how many other men were internally and externally destructive thanks to being forced into society’s mold in conflict with who they really were.

::: spoiler Transcription When you accept him as gay, the hair, makeup, ballroom, and Liberace-themed decorations suddenly makes a lot more sense.

We just have to accept it! Trump is our first LGBTQ president. He just happens to be the closeted kind. So at every moment where their secret could come out, they double it down on lies and deception. Not everyone is like that, but I can see why. I've heard that Hitler was also a gay person.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexuality_of_Adolf_Hitler

And I heard on NPR last night that he had a micropenis and undecended testicles. This doesn't make you or anyone a bad person at all. What is relevant is that we're all suffering due to the personal suffering and vendettas that some random asshole has.

Also, if he's bisexual, I'm not claiming him. I'm also disowning Alex Jones, who is possibly bisexual and into swinging.

Alright sounds good.

I'm looking forward to someone at some point taking a photo or video at the decisive moment when orange man realizes he is truly gay, unique and the president of the God damn United States. As a gay or bisexual man he could unify the country and truly make America great again (assuming he's fucked it up real good so far, which is a good assumption). Please be bi! Please be bi! Please come out as bi! He's got 3 more years as president and just possibly just a handful more as a human bean. He has the potential to uplift us instead of antagonize us. All he has to do is realize he's gay or bisexual and tell us all about it after he pardons himself again for abusing underaged people.

2

If he came out he would win quite a few confused LGBT votes and lose quite a bit of conservative votes that are also confused

The ones I know? Ok they arent. But I have seen and interacted with plenty of gay senior citizens. Probably have over 15 years working a couple blocks over from my cities gayborhood. Even the ones who arent dressed to the nines have nice haircuts.
