This divisiveness happens among gays and lesbians as well. I know "lipstick lesbians" that are shunned by other lesbians, only because they don't portray the public's perception of a lesbian. How backward is that? The only issue for me is that someone assumes something about me that is none of their business, be it gay or whatever. My toughest days are when i'm totally in drab and someone asks me if I'm gay just because I have a pair of pink sneakers on. I was wearing a Wonder Woman shirt one day (and it happened to be a man's shirt I might add) and a woman asked me if my gf minded that I was wearing it. What the? I don't know if she was questioning my masculinity, my sexuality or has a thing against Lynda Carter!Originally Posted by Kehleyr
I have read comments in other places where other CD's made comments just short of calling a gay person a f**got. Again, what the? (Almost) any group whose majority accepts me is ok by me. In the last year, I have found that many Wiccans are very accepting of me. I'm not Wiccan, but that doesn't mean I won't stand up for them. I had a lot of misconceptions about them, when I got to know them, those misconceptions went away. There are a few in the bunch that don't portray Wiccanism in a nice light and end up on dreadful talk shows, but they are the minority.
If I have to stand on the "straight" side or the "gay" side, I'd stand on the gay side.
