...
Just listen for a few minutes starting at 2:21 and keep going for five or ten. It's exactly my take on it. Too, too many weak souls out there. I can't tell you how many straight people I've known who couldn't get it right with the opposite sex and decided they must be meant to be gay. I sat in a room with about six gay guys one time and asked them about what made them gay, were they born that way or did it develop over time. All of them told me they were gay because women were too much trouble, that they didn't feel right catering to a woman's needs, and it was radically easier to be with another guy.
I worked with a screaming queen at the big fancy law firm who had been diagnosed with AIDS. He'd been telling me that a girl tried to take her clothes off in front of him once and he kept telling her to put that back on, that he was gay to the bone, no question. Still, he went a little 'round the bend on A Course of Miracles and was raving about how much it helped him. I kind of rolled my eyes, but was glad for him. That was back in the days when AIDS was 100% a death sentence, back in the 80s.
One day he called me and asked me to come talk with him for a minute. He started crying. He confessed to me he'd been lying all his life. The truth was that he was terrified of women. It wasn't that he didn't love us. He worshipped us and was afraid of failing us.
Twenty years later, any gay person I tell about it insists he'd been bargaining because the AIDS was killing him. Nowadays, they ALL insist it's been so from birth. That's their story and they're sticking to it. They call that room full of guys liars, any gay who tries to tell you they weren't gay from birth is lying.
Well. Sorry. It's a way to get gays and transgenders accepted into the ranks of "normal"... whatever that is... socially acceptable and, now, it seems outright chic... but I have been right there in the room with people when they are announcing their conscious decision to try being gay. So. Sorry. It's not ALL gays from birth, even if it's some. There are PLENTY who are just doing gay in their quest to be loved and accepted.
And, though little kids do get crushes on movie stars and neighbors, it is almost as usual for them to be the same sex as the opposite one. It's not sexual. It's a kind of romantic, because it is a kind of love and admiration, but it hasn't to do with gender identity.
But I've lost count of all the people who just up and announced one day that they were going to go gay. Their heterosexual endeavors were train wrecks and they were sick of it and felt they could succeed at gay. Males and females. The vast majority of them gave that up sooner rather than later... except when there was a lot of money involved.
I had a very, very handsome boyfriend with a gay uncle. He wanted to make it big in the horse world. He didn't have the kind of money that takes. So he left me and took up with a gay guy on the Olympic Equestrian Team. Then another gay guy with a big dressage horse farm. He came out with some fancy, fancy high class horses, and then married a woman who'd just gotten a huge settlement from her divorce. More fancy horses. And trips to Europe. A divorce in favor of an even wealthier woman. He got a LOT of money off her. He ended up with a woman who is a doctor at a fancy radiation oncology center. I think he'll stick there, being that he's too old to attract much with more to offer.
It's so chic now kids are experimenting with gay relationships... like we experimented with LSD... get involved with someone who's really gay and rip their hearts out when they're sure that this kind of chic just isn't cutting it.
Same sort of thing with transgender. I knew a girl who insisted she was a man at 18, and had the sex change... except the plumbing... that requiring more money than she/he had at the time. She/he fell in love with a lesbian. So she/he didn't get a dick so her lesbian wouldn't leave her/him. He's sort of a mostly guy lesbian now... was actually a lesbian all along.
Think of all the awkward failures with the opposite sex now convincing themselves that they've been supposed to be the other sex all along. Football players with perms and smeared lipstick. Runty little fucks with mustaches, some weird pump apparatus that doesn't shoot semen for when they can find a woman to give them a roll in the hay.
The whole country, the whole of Western "Civilization" is screaming to them that their life isn't working because they've been the wrong sex all their lives.
And even the ones who are happy with it, happy for the first time in their lives, are touchy as fuck about being questioned by someone who's not so sure trying to get educated about it.
I recently met a man-turned-woman, or so he/she insisted was the case, but decided to temporarily stop the estrogen so he could THINK clearly, clear out the "pollution". Still, dare make a peep about how weird this sounds after hearing all about how he's been in the wrong body since earliest childhood, and you're in trouble. Couldn't possibly be that he just hated his life and his body and his ineptitude or terror or unattractiveness to women, and, heck, you can move to Portland and there's an entire social scene where you can be chic as fuck if you're a semi-woman off her estrogen.
The progressive-fascists, the social justice warriors, don't give a flying fuck what's actually right, or the kernel of it. No! Change your sex or marry someone the same sex as you are. Doesn't matter how many human lives go into the crapper for a long time or until they die, frequently at their own hand.
Joey Diaz is the first person I've heard speak real sense about all this. Crass as it comes out. He's got some real insight there... not that it will do any good, I guess, except for me... who doesn't need the help nearly as much as lort only knows how many terminally confused weak souls out there, ready to leap on anything they think will give them a sense of belonging.
always and any time....
