I own a lot of my house, because I'm Irish and from people who never owned anything.
I have a thick skin, but I have a heart.
A lot of people think that telling people you're gay is something someone might say just to get attention.
It's going to take generations of gay people marrying before these things start to feel natural. We haven't had it long enough to remake it as our own, so it does feel like you're getting dressed up in straight drag to do it.
Don't mistake being an asshole for being a man.
Actual gay people can make many others feel uncomfortable and paranoid because they don't know and can't articulate what makes a person gay, and they worry that maybe they themselves are gay.
