Search Results: gay older men

I'm trying to be open minded. However I'm a straight, hetero "nice guy" and gay men have pushed the envelop with me a few times because I'm easy going/approachable and they feel comfortable pushing their beliefs on me.

I have worked with gay men and had an old college friend come out of the closet. There are some very good qualities about these guys but I feel many of them abuse political correctness. An example would be hitting on a straight guy (that they know is straight) and labeling them "bigot" or "homophobe" if they respond negatively. I feel this is a growing problem and traditional straight men have absolutely no recourse.

As a gay man who has hardly ever encountered many lesbians, I used to have secret hatred for Lesbians after being told a lot of negative stereotypes about them from other people (and became ignorant of it at that time). I've been told that they hated men and want to compete with them in manliness. I used to think that they socially have it so much easier than gay men and have never suffered real persecution in their lives like us gay men have because society finds lesbians cute while gays disgusting and disgraceful. I envied all of the center attention that Lesbian women receive from the world and the fact that they were never jumped, beaten or killed for their homosexuality.

Then as I got older and mellowed down, I've later met a Lesbian who was actually very nice and surprisingly have more guy friends than girls. And to raise my faith in Lesbians even more, she has actually stood up for a few gay men who were constantly harassed and bullied in high school.
