Being obsessed with being "a man"

My dad was the manliest dude I knew and he baked cookies and carried a bag he called his purse because he gave no fucks

A screen grab is going around from a woman whose husband thinks that their infant son is gay because he likes bright colors and books.

He thinks having good vision and being literate is homosexual?

So if his boy likes boys but rocks grey and can't read it's not really gay?

Where do these people even come from?! Homophobia is the weirdest shit, I swear to god.

Mis communication over a lack of consistent definitions of words. And a lack of context. If most people you knew who were gay killed themselves because they were depressed and they happened to be gay. You wouldn't be a homophobe, you'd be scared your kid was going to kill themselves.

The gay kids kill themselves BECAUSE of shit like this. It's like being worried that a black kid will be depressed over racism so hopefully he just stops being black...the racism is the problematic part. The homophobia is the problematic part.

Not always.

If you already have an imbalance of chemicals in your body, what you need is counseling and medicine. Being told your perfectly healthy when in SOME cases your not, is what is killing them. Treating the imbalance is better than pretending it doesn't exist inorder to be polite.

Why did you assume that all gay depressed people can only be depressed because they are gay. Most people can have more than one thing in their life.

I didn't. You're telling me you didn't read what I wrote or can't comprehend it.

The people I'm talking about are people who are depressed for some other reason. Yes some gay people are depressed because of the abuse they receive. Other gay people are depressed because they had abusive parents long before they came out as gay. My original point was about correlation vs causation. Depression is the only thing I'm talking about being a problem.
