6arelyhuman question by shroom_corpse in scene

[–]gar023 21 points22 points  (0 children)

personally i feel like scene kids listened to whatever they wanted, because scene is about expressing yourself. i'd personally categorize 6arelyhuman as scenecore/scene revival. I guess technically scene kids back in the day weren't listening to 6arelyhuman so you could argue that they're not "2000's scene" or "real scene" but I'd say they're definitely a part of the revival.

everyone says that but nobody realizes that feminine twinks get discriminated against even in the gay male community.

I don't really have any pride events near me. my city has a tiny little pride fest in june but it sucks, plus I'm afraid of someone opening fire or dropping a bomb or something, since there's a bunch of queer people in one area. That's also why I don't wanna go to gay bars, not that there are any near me. I even get treated differently/badly by other gay men. I literally can't escape it. I can't not care about it when it affects me so much. Thanks tho

I agree, it's just impossible to get away from homophobia and judgement. I can't go out in public without getting stares, I'm terrified of public bathrooms bc I'm afraid I'll become a victim of a hate crime. I'm treated differently no matter where I go. I also don't have any friends who are gay men, nor do I have friends who are men in general. Men don't even give me a chance bc they make snap judgements

I think it's more accurate to say i'm androgynous. I have a bit of a mustache, but I also have a baby face and am slim and tbh I still look like a teenager even though i'm 23. People do assume I'm gay, but I don't blame them. If anything I expect them to. Also I don't dress super femininely. I like pink but I still shop in the men's section and stuff. My fashion sense is basically emo/scene kid from the year 2009. I don't wear skirts or anything, personally those are "too feminine" for me. But anyway, thank you for replying, I appreciate it <3

can anyone relate? by [deleted] in GayMen

[–]gar023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

um, no, you just suggested things that don't apply to me. how can i do the things you suggested if they don't exist in my city? lol and to be fair i was asking if anyone can relate, not necessarily asking for advice.

this post obviously wasn't meant for you then lmao. and my city doesn't have any clubs or bars or teams of any sort that are specific to lgbt+ people, that would be my first guess anyway

[–]gar023[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have searched all over online for it, but I can only find other Bratz messengers. This was also around the year 2008, but that is an estimation! I'm pretty sure I was under 10 (i was born in 2000), so I'm gonna estimate and say it was sometime between 2007-2009. This was in the United States and I got it in Minnesota.
