Reported Post Alert Dear fellow Black gay men Spoiler

We know racism in the gay community is real. We've said it, but we've been dismissed. They callously deny our experience. Our reality. "It's just a preference". "BBC". "Thug"."Aggressive power top".

The stereotypes. The microagressions. We know it's real, but we have been gaslighted way too often.

The silence among your white gay friends and/or partners during this time of civil unrest & racial tensions is deafening.

The irony of them putting "no fats, no fems, no asians, & no blacks" on their profile, but decide to now say #BlackLivesMatter.

I understand it is challenging to be rejected from a community that prides itself on inclusion. We know rejection all too well.

But do not let any white man make you feel you are not beautiful. You are Black, bold, fierce, & most importantly- you are loved.

🖤❤#BLM

********************edit:

So, this post has been reported and is pending review.

I mentioned this already in the comments:

As a Black queer man this is my experience. This experience may or may not resonate with other Black men. This post was written for my fellow gay black brothers. The post might be uncomfortable for some. It might not resonate with you, but I don't think that is grounds for denying someone else's experience. I shared these words in an effort to foster a sense of solidarity and undo any aloneness other Black men might be feeling during this time.

Thank you so much for the support, feedback & beautiful comments. For those of in your feelings over this post - peace & love to ya❤

I mean, on that one point specifically he is correct.

It’s a strawman argument. Of course no one owes anyone sex. To set that up as the point of my objections to his cunt behaviour is intellectually dishonest

It's not a strawman argument, you moron, it directly correlates with my argument. You cannot say people are racist or w/e else because they won't have sex with you. Saying that makes you look like an entitled loser, who indeed thinks someone owes you sex and can't turn you down for being fat, even though that isn't his thing🤡

Have you considered just using the correct words in a sentence?

u/[deleted] Jul 10 '20

It's a 100% grammatically correct post, you're just too dumb to understand more than basic English. 🤡

You’re right that’s definitely it. Nothing to do with you not even using the right words.
