You’ve got to be taught before it’s too late, Before you are six or seven or eight, To hate all the people your relatives hate— You’ve got to be carefully taught! You’ve got to be carefully taught!
I was cheated before And I’m cheated again By a mean little world Of mean little men. And the one chance for me Is the life I know best.

My parents did not like gay people but they were never open about hating anyone. In the early 90s, when I was a teenager, I got really into promoting equality and boy were they shocked. They were so adverse to talking about sex at all that they completely neglected to teach me homophobia, and by the time I found out gay people existed, it was too late. My two best friends in high school were gay and they were the nicest people.

My favorite story is with my worst high school bully. Short kid that used to call me "girlyboy" and "fa**ot" all the time all because I looked a couple of times in his direction during science class... because he was sitting between me and the clock. He didn't stop until I got a girlfriend.
Fast forward a couple of years and my girlfriend and I were walking to the park. Who did we catch smooching behind a bush with another guy? Yeah, him. He was a super pale kid and his face turned into a tomato.
But honestly, I should have just listened to him anyway. In my later years around 2015, I became heavily transphobic, falling into the hole of "trans people are mentally ill", and "trans people are just doing it for attention". Oops. Guess what. I've been transitioning for 6 years now, medically for 5.
The projection is real. It's not all of us,it does shift the blame, and it even gets weaponized as a means to shame gay and trans people, even by "allies", but it is very real.

It's weird how some trans people have been stamping their feet since age 3 and insisting "I'm not a boy, I'm a girl, I don't want a haircut," etc., or "I'm not a girl, I'm a boy, I don't want to wear a dress," and consistently know and tell everyone who they really are into adulthood, and then there are stories like this. Were you totally oblivious to it, or were you sort of aware you were suppressing something?
Do you think it's more accurate to say you were always really female, and that your body didn't outwardly reflect it and you didn't realize the truth until later, or that you used to be male, and that you transitioned to female? Because I think a lot of people think of it the latter way, but I don't know how many trans people do. Terms like MTF and FTM suggest the latter.
I also think it's interesting that about 1 in 50 people, which would mean multiple people in each school, are intersex, meaning their genitals and internal sex organs aren't entirely or exclusively one sex or another, or their chromosomes or hormones don't match the common sexual expression for their genitals and sex organs. Because these various forms of intersexuality provide clear evidence that other people can see that genitals aren't the be-all and end-all of someone's gender. So maybe we should just listen to people when they tell us who they are.

Were you totally oblivious to it, or were you sort of aware you were suppressing something?
I'm also trans. In my case there were always signs something about my gender was off, (my parents said I rather infamously as a toddler responded to the revelation that I could get erections by crying and punching it because I was insisting "it shouldn't be there") but as a little kid it was easy for everyone to just brush it aside as "silly kid stuff", and even though I felt "wrong" most of the time I never knew this wasn't normal, and assumed everyone felt like that.
But it got really bad around puberty. I *really* started to notice being uncomfortable with my male body, and being jealous of girls. I knew this was *definitely* not normal by late middle school, and went deep into denial mode for pretty much all of high school.
It wasn't until college that the dam finally broke and I made the realization that A) I was trans B ) I had been suppressing it all this time.
It happened Junior year during my study abroad program, and to this day I credit the dam breaking *then* because it was the first time in my life I was living away from my parents for extended periods of time and really had the space to think about who I was as a person and what I wanted in life without the expectations of "how would my family react" clouding my judgement.
Do you think it's more accurate to say you were always really female, and that your body didn't outwardly reflect it and you didn't realize the truth until later,
In my case I'd say I was always really female. Much of my childhood makes way more sense if you think of me as a little girl being treated like a boy than actually being a boy.
And yes, I see what you're saying about MtF, but I honestly use the label more for the sake of clarity for cis people than anything else. (cis people have sometimes been known to mix up the terms "trans man" and "trans woman" so MtF makes it easier for cis people to know which direction you transitioned.)
I also think it's interesting that about 1 in 50 people, which would mean multiple people in each school, are intersex, meaning their genitals and internal sex organs aren't entirely or exclusively one sex or another, or their chromosomes or hormones don't match the common sexual expression for their genitals and sex organs.
I may be trans but I actually suspect I may also be a form of intersex. Growing up I was never physiologically developing the way boys generally did. I was much smaller and weaker than the boys my age, and even when I hit puberty testosterone didn't do a whole lot to me. Even before hormone therapy I physically could not grow facial hair, developed very little muscle mass and body hair, and had very soft and round facial features for a guy.

u/TemetNosce85 7d ago
I was suppressing.
My gender dysphoria kicked into full gear when I was 10 years old. It started with a game of pretend with my cousin where we were pretending to transform into animals. It was a hot August night in 1995, I couldn't sleep, so I started thinking about the game and what it would be like to actually be an animal. But then a single question entered my head; "What if I transformed into a girl?" That's when my gender dysphoria kicked in and I started struggling with my body and identity. I became transphobic because I was trying to suppress my thoughts and feelings. "Toxic masculinity" was my way to try to prove to myself that I was "a man" because things like karate, boxing, fishing, hunting, camping, shooting, etc didn't work to "fix" me.
And even then, I still remember plenty of things when I was little that were huge early signs. Like fighting with my parents after my sister gave me a makeover. I was 6 or 7 when it happened. My sister gave me a makeover, my dad didn't like what she did, and he demanded that I took it off. I didn't want to. It made me feel happy. But we fought and he hit me. Then another time, I became extremely jealous of my friend's Easter dress. And, just so much stuff where I wished I could do girl things, or I wished I could be a girl, but I just didn't have that existential crisis where I was questioning my identity, you know?

I'm gay, and as a kid, I used to twirl around in a blanket, play in my mom's heels, or ask my mom to put blush on my cheeks when she and I were getting ready in the morning because it looked fun to brush your face. My mom would entertain it all for a little bit, but then tell me no, probably after a discussion with dad. (Although I stopped asking for makeup when someone at school noticed and made fun of me.) I wonder if anything would be different today if no one teased me or said no. I don't have any question about being male, and I've had long-term roommates who were surprised when I told them I was gay, but I wonder if maybe I would be more feminine if I had been allowed to play with all the fun feminine things I wanted as a kid.

I had to research this because, I mean, do you actually believe it could be 1 in 50?? And I learned that 1 in 50 is not a real figure, it’s an exaggeration of a percentage taken way out of context. Fausto-Sterling suggested that 1.7% exhibit an intersex trait. To wit, from Leonard Sax in the National Library of Medicine: “Anne Fausto-Sterling s suggestion that the prevalence of intersex might be as high as 1.7% has attracted wide attention in both the scholarly press and the popular media. Many reviewers are not aware that this figure includes conditions which most clinicians do not recognize as intersex, such as Klinefelter syndrome, Turner syndrome, and late-onset adrenal hyperplasia. If the term intersex is to retain any meaning, the term should be restricted to those conditions in which chromosomal sex is inconsistent with phenotypic sex, or in which the phenotype is not classifiable as either male or female. Applying this more precise definition, the true prevalence of intersex is seen to be about 0.018%, almost 100 times lower than Fausto-Sterling s estimate of 1.7%.”

I had a short stint a while back on the whole "being trans is a mental disorder" train. Little did I know that I have the same gender dysphoria symptom but to a lesser degree. It took some soul searching and contemplation, but I decided that I will not transition. I have so much respect for people who do, though. I am now as much of an ally as I possibly can be and will fight alongside the LGBT community if it comes down to it.

Some of the things that are "gay" just blow my mind. Loving your children. Wiping/washing your own ass. Wearing something with pink or purple. Enjoying a tasty drink. Wearing clothing that fits properly. Thinking a sunset is pretty. Going down on a woman (not hyperbole, I've been told this by extremely insecure men who fear ever appearing submissive in any way).
Nothing is more attractive than a man who can express his emotions, is openly affectionate with his friends and family, and isn't afraid to do/eat/enjoy whatever the fuck he wants without fear of being perceived as "gay" (other than things that hurt other people, of course).

One of my childhood friends ended up being one of the biggest bigots I've ever met, despite his little brother being gay, and he himself being bi-curious or something. But he typically expressed that side of himself by repeated unwanted sexual remarks and/or groping/molesting people. Motherfucker still has the audacity to rant and rave about every young queer person with fame or an online presence.
He also constantly shared anti-trans propaganda from the likes of Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, etc. And when I called him out on it, his attempt at an UNO reverse card was that he had a "non-binary girlfriend." I get that NB's sometimes still use some gendered terms, but the cynical part of me assumed he just called his AFAB NB partner his girlfriend while trying to insist that he couldn't possibly be transphobic despite recommending literature written by parents who keep deadnaming, misgendering and humiliating their own kids, and other trans people.

My friend was assigned male at birth, but dressed and identified as female. In our first house, at 18, we had lots of wild and crazy parties.

They would not want her to reciprocate and they did not want sex, they just wanted to give her a blowjob. Evidently this is fairly common.

I'm not going to say that's never the case, and that's an interesting theory for those cases. The tactic of tying LGBT to pedophilia, though is much more widespread than that would explain. It's a political tactic, a fascist one, to malign the community and make it easier to take their rights away.

It's also a tactic to both incite very real violence, and to excuse that violence at the same time. The nazis used similar rhetorical tactics against the Jewish community while they were rising to power. It's scary to have spent time studying that part of history, and to watch our current shitshow and see all the commonalities. The best things to do right now are: speak out against this stuff, build strong networks with your neighbors, help each other (mutual aid!), teach any first aid or self-defense skills you know (or learn skills if you don't know them), and study the history of fascism and especially of resistance movements.

It's a Red Flag of Straw Man fallacies, touted by the rich and influential to the stupid and uneducated.

There's also a chance he's on grindr for nefarious purposes like setting traps and ganging up on unsuspecting gay targets.
But then again given how he won't even dare to punch a cardboard ranboiw sign properly there's a big chance he does actually like cum on his beard

So Pride has been a thing at Target for 10 years. Did they not notice? Or did their overlord didn't tell them to care? Honestly I don't understand how TLC, the home of Honey Boo boo and the thousands of hours of Married to immigrants, Married at first Site, Etc that all these conservatives watch also made the Jazz show a success. Does Jazz somehow get a pass? Cause my bio aunts were watching that show a few years ago, but now are saying trans kids shouldn't exist... except Jazz???

You grow up in a conservative religious household being told being gay is the worst thing you can do. You hit puberty and oh shit, girls are OK but look at the ass on that dude. But you can't be gay, that's wrong. So you tell yourself everyone has these secret thoughts, and you try to bury them. But then these gay dudes make it super easy to give in to those sick pleasures so you hate them for it. You blame them for not also repressing their sexual urges for you being tempted so easily.

So sad that they can’t be themselves and be happy. I can’t imagine having those feelings toward a man and unable to express them because of religion.

This actually reminds me of a Christian Crusade, held by an Adventist pastor and his adult son. The adult son had one shared a story in one of the sermons about someone who was Christian, and “struggling with homosexual tendencies”. He goes on to say that he tried fighting those “tendencies” and it took a strain on his mental health so much that he ended up committing suicide. The pastor ended up saying that the reason why he did it was because he was looking to himself, and not looking to Jesus for strength to quote, remove those homosexual tendencies”.

I've heard similar sermons in the Mormon church many times, it's very much a "we love our gay brothers and sisters, we pray that one day they'll repent and stop being gay".
Made me sad long before I even started debating staying part of their church.

u/XxRocky88xX 8d ago
This. Also a reason behind the majority of their ban happy ways. They have urge to do X, they believe X is morally wrong, they refrain from doing X, sacrificing their happiness. Then they see other people doing X, this makes them angry because they’re making a sacrifice to not do X, they want people to be punished for not making that same sacrifice, that way they don’t need to feel like the sacrifice is for nothing.

I know not all homophobes are secretly gay, but there's a 100% chance this guy is. For anyone that doesn't know, this guys entire personality is how awful gays are. For years, he has been filming himself going into stores and getting angry at Pride displays to prove how much he hates gays.
This guy even got in trouble with the law cuz he kept trespassing to protest a pride display. He goes on conservative shows to talk about how awful gays are. That is all this guy talks about. This guy definitely grew up as a regressed Christian and is over compensating to prove that he's not gay.

I heard quite a few stories like this and I think I need to share mine.
Right when I came out as gay at school, a guy from my class, a self-proclaimed far-right homophobe, asked if we could talk. I was already a veteran of countless debates and used to being called names and getting death threats. I just went for it and decided to confront him. I followed him alone to the corner of a backyard during a party. He picked a spot so no one could see us. This got me thinking, as he didn't seem to be the type to try to beat me up with some of our friends partying just inside the house.
and then he was like
- you know I'm a homophobe...
- yes.
- I'm a homophobe but if you ever need anything...
and he made this kind of puppy-eyes eye contact that I cannot forget. I felt like he would either ask for a hug or try to suck my dick. I maintained eye contact and asked him if he knew what I think of homophobes, that many of them are closeted gays and bis. He just fucking nodded his head and politely agreed, looking back at me with those eyes. I stood there looking directly at him like this for a while.
I just couldn't bring myself to show any kind of intimacy to this hypocrite so I simply left him standing there.
and yes, some of our classmates saw him coming inside a short while after me and started all kinds of gossip.
He kept both his right-wing and homophobic views but it's worth pointing out that he no longer harassed any of the openly queer members of the school's arts or music clubs. He used to do that a lot while on duty as a student assistant.

An old friend of mine was incredibly homophobic and eventually ended up being a trump Maga lover. He was also caught banging another buddy we all knew was gay back in high school, and he still denied it until I stopped being his friend a few years back.
It might not be 100%, but like he said, it sure does seem like a pattern with these hyper conservatives.

As a teenager I was mad homophobic. Given the cultural milieu I grew up in (suburban GenX) this was totally normal. I said all the shit, believed all the bullshit, and then one night the two women I worked the closing shift at a fast food restaurant with sat me down and told me that they were a couple and that it hurt them when I said all the cruel things I'd been saying.
It changed my life. Suddenly "they" were my coworkers who I really enjoyed working with. All the bullshit came crashing down around me after that. I'm still straight, and I'm forever going to have the back of the LGBTQIA+ community when asked or when someone's in danger. It was either that or live in another kind of fucked-up closet, and who's got time for that?
