@futurebird also the good old rural area wisdom: 'we have no gay people here'. then they go beat up someone who failed their gender proving pissing match and oh look at that: no one in their right mind won't come out there. they'll just move the hell away and live in a city instead. like me. 2 comments
@liferstate Or worse, you get beaten up or even killed for being queer. it's easy for the leaders then say there's no queer people when everyone queer knows not to come out. I've been personally intrigued by the queer sub cultures of various ages and places. friends of dorothy being one good example. |

@aamurusko79 @futurebird Conservative Muslim men in my town insist there are no gay people in their families & moreover it's impossible to be gay & Muslim. Yet a friend who teaches middle school here has queer kids in his classes. None of them are out. Not to their families, maybe not even to their friends. If queerness is shameful & must always be hidden, of course nobody's queer.
