Welcome to /c/Gay - Your LGBTQ+ Haven
We're more than just a community; we're your haven for celebrating LGBTQ+ culture and connecting with like-minded individuals.
Community Rules:
~ 1. No bigotry. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 4. Keep it LGBTQ+ related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love posts but 3-4 in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Being so insecure about whether or not you're perceived as feminine/gay is hella gay. As in, super closeted and desperately trying to deny the truth by any means kind of gay.
I'm dating another man. I don't know any gay guys who worry about this.
Does insecurity so crippling it stops you from cleaning up after yourself when camping seem well aligned with the stereotypical ultra-masculine archetype to you?
Of course it's ultimately all nonsense and stereotypes - but that's really the point - this arbitrary "that's gay... and that's a problem" nonsense just draws lines people fear to cross and limits their freedom for no benefit.
Idk anything about that. I was in scouts all the men I know mostly go by the motto leave only footprints.
And I think that's a fine and good principle to live by.
Shhhh, we're trying to convince these guys that it's less gay to save the environment!
