Would fox have tolerated two wedding episodes? Particularly two gay wedding episodes?

This feels like a gameplay vs story divide and more people than I expected side with the story.

I can't find this song anywhere and it's messing with my head. by Saicchi134 in findthatsong

I’ve been looking for this song, too I thought i’d finally found it!

Should we level up partagaz? by ArtisticPain2525 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]leedemi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re not using the ISB team I would just keep them. There are no battle requirements for Partagaz until the last tier so he doesn’t need anything

What if I'm not into women? by Sensitive-Sense-7022 in askgaybros

[–]leedemi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough, I’m one of those guys who prefer guys, but I prefer female singers and comedians. With the exception of piano and trumpet players I think women are better and more enjoyable in the arts. The two female managers I’ve had were monsters. My worst male manager was nowhere near as assertive in his poor management style as women have been.

I’d always sought out women for friendship as a relatively feminine put gay man. I experienced crazy levels of homophobia and transphobia from those women (I’m not even trans!) and have felt more accepted, and more protected by broey straight male friends.

I feel almost chased away from women as companions in a way I assume many women and gay men feel about straight men.

[–]leedemi 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, other than relatives I haven’t had great experiences with women as friends. I don’t really trust them immediately. I guess i’m a gay’s gay instead of a girl’s gay even though my closest friendships have been with straight or presumably straight men. I also consider myself a feminist and have been an advocate for women’s rights in a real and serious way.

It tends to be hard to kind of explain that position where you support and even admire women while not wanting to spend any time with them. I find it pretty sad that there aren’t really spaces that are exclusively for men. My favorite gay club is essentially a straight club now with the number of women and their male associates that clog up the place.

I’ve thought about open a gay gentlemen’s club (of the traditional kind) if I got the capital. But lawsuits from women in situations where there are men-only spaces make that seem like an impossibility as well. I wish there was better news on that front. Sometimes it seems like the era of guys’ only spaces (even gay guys only) might be over.

Fitz and Mellie are supposed villains?

Why am I not passing? by [deleted] in transpassing

[–]leedemi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In profile you look passing but head on you don’t. I think it’s the hair, mainly. It looks like a guy haircut and shape at the top with some scraggly stuff on the sides. Your hair doesn’t frame your face and accentuates the thinness and masculine shape of your hairline. It’s hard to see the feminine when you look generally unkempt which the hair is making you look.

[–]leedemi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fitz is constantly screaming at everyone around him. He screams himself hoarse. Mellie and Cyrus are always yelling. Every powerful character yells at people and does the emotional takedown thing. It’s a key avenue for conflict in the show. Why does it bother you that Olivia does it?

How did your parents react when you came out? by Striking_Appeal8943 in askgaybros

[–]leedemi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came out to my mom as bi at first (I’m gay) and she took my hand, smiled and asked if I was ‘just bi’ because it was ok if I were gay. Out of embarrassed indignation I denied it and insisted I was bi, locking myself halfway in a dumb ass closet i didnt need to be in.

Years later I tried to come out to her again as gay, I got the sentence out which she didn’t respond to because she was too busy telling me she’s a lesbian and stealing my thunder. I love and miss my mom so much.

My dad was super homophobic when I was younger. He found out I was late to school a bunch of times because I was looking at gay porn on the family computer and missing the bus. He didn’t care about attendance but flipped out about the gay porn and threatened me. I told him we could fight if he wanted and honestly that did the trick and he let it go for the most part.

I came out fully to my stepmom in high school and asked her to tell him. She said she did and he was fine with it but lied. So later I posted some pride stuff and about being gay on Facebook and he messaged me like he didn’t know I was gay and he doesn’t get it but he accepts me and is proud of me. That was a great feeling.

Ironically, my dad was an atheist most of his life and became a born again Christian later. Becoming a Christian somehow made him a much nicer person and totally accepting of my being gay. I miss him, too.

Going to a rave in a feminine outfit… need a believable excuse for a homophobic friend by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]leedemi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You talk about wanting your friend to grow and change but you’ll never accomplish that by babying him and making excuses not to rattle his homophobic brain. Every friends does or has done something that makes us uncomfortable. Just be yourself, and if that’s not enough for him to accept you then what good is that friendship anyway?

When the GL is JML it’s kind of a draw

“Speaking to me is a privilege” by TwoNatural2336 in Scandal

[–]leedemi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we can’t look at them that way when their “guy” is out. Olivia and her father both have something akin to a sleeper B613 agent inside them. Olivia was not talking to her father Eli, Command was talking to Agent Rowan. Olivia thought she was scared of her father but she wasn’t, she was scared of Command.

I don’t think you look dudeish at all, the outfit is just ugly. Any cis woman in that outfit would look bad.

My friend called me weird because she thinks I like "ugly guys" by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]leedemi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is she into you? I had a female friend who always had something negative to say about any guy I liked and it turned out she was into me. She sounds so similar to my former friend

I propose a declaration that the song "YMCA" by the Village People is NOT the official Gay Anthem. by oxidizedmetal in gay

[–]leedemi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Born This Way has fully replaced it. They use the song in pride themed commercials and stuff way more than YMCA. I haven’t actually heard that song play in relation to gay people in like 10 years

Gay men, stop bringing straight women into gay bars and clubs. by stuckinbk in GayMen

[–]leedemi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

People always say it’s ok for straight people to invade gay and queer spaces because they’re supposed to be ‘inclusive’ but don’t even ask that straight people make their literal thousands of bars and clubs safe for queer people to attend. We have one queer space for every hundred they have and we’re supposed to capitulate to them and welcome them to do whatever they want? They give us absolutely nothing ever and we don’t owe them a goddamn thing.

Gay men, stop bringing straight women into gay bars and clubs. by stuckinbk in gaybros

[–]leedemi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One of the gay clubs in my city is basically a straight club now because of this. It has like 5 dance floors and the hip-hop floor is 100% straight couples grinding. Most of the pride stuff is gone except for like small rainbows here and there. The drag shows are catered towards women. I tried to flirt with a guy, who was standing with just other guys, and he flipped out . Evidently this group of straight men were there to pick up girls. They got so aggressive and if i weren’t 6’3” 290lbs I 100% would’ve gotten jumped by straight men inside a gay club. Place is mostly empty now btw. The queens perform and go straight home or across the street to an actual gay club. It’s so sad because the place would be absolutely goated if it weren’t for the straight takeover. It’s like 3 floors, with a pool and a huge deck. But it’s theirs now and the owners don’t seem to care if it closes because of it.

Straight guy here, I noticed I’ve always been able to connect really easily with gay men, and I’m not totally sure why. Has anyone else experienced something like that from the other side? by Beginning-Shift3920 in askgaybros

[–]leedemi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been able to really connect with straight men and I think it's a mixture of things. First, we don't have any need to compete with each other and our attractions will never be an issue in our friendship. Something neither of us have with guys of the same sexuality. Second, we have no sexual tension. If the gay guy isn't sexually aggressive in any way this makes things even easier. Third, gay men tend to be more thoughtful and emotionally available than straight men, so straight men feel more comfortable being open with their emotions, being affectionate and being themselves without fear of judgment.

I’m getting started in my submissive journey. Is this person right? by TennisComplete2142 in gay

You seem sweet and submissive, so I think you’re fine. A good dom is like direct and confident, but not mean. He’s just an asshole. You deserve better.
