 Probably simplistic to think that hostility hides a lot of fear. May be an indictor of insecurities in his own sexuality.

However, as Herr doctor Freud never said  "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar". He may just be an ignoramus and a bit of an arsehole.

And just to try and answer Huggy's question about whether there's more black LGBTQ representation than straight black representation, I looked at GLAAD's 2020/21 Where We Are Now study, and while they provided numbers of LGBTQ characters on Broadcast TV, Cable, and Streaming (sorted by race), they only provided a number of total black characters for Broadcast TV.

Quote:This year, there are 773 series regular characters counted on primetime scripted series on broadcast. Of those, 22 percent (171) of the regular characters are Black. Although this is the third year in a row this percentage has held steady - tying for a record high percentage of Black series regulars on broadcast - this is a decrease of 25 characters.

[...]

Of the 101 LGBTQ characters counted on the five broadcast networks, 23 percent (23) are Black characters.

23/171=13.5% of black characters on Broadcast TV are LGBTQ. Given that, if the stats I have for the real world are correct, 5.6% of adults identify as LGBT, this might be a bit high, but it's still a far cry from LGBT black representation outnumbering straight black representation.

Wakefield Poole, Pioneer in Gay Pornography, Dies at 85

Quote:One New York night in the early 1970s, a dancer and budding filmmaker named Wakefield Poole went to see a gay porn flick called “Highway Hustler” at a run-down theater in Times Square with his friends. As he settled into a tattered seat, he prepared to spend the next 45 minutes or so enjoyably aroused.

But as the film rolled, he experienced nothing of the kind. He thought that the movie was sleazy, that its sex scenes were unnecessarily degrading. He started laughing out loud, and one of his companions fell asleep.

“I said to my friend, ‘This is the worst, ugliest movie I’ve ever seen!’” Mr. Poole, who died on Oct. 27 at 85, recalled in 2002. “Somebody ought to be able to do something better.”

The Stonewall uprising in Greenwich Village had occurred two years earlier, and Mr. Poole, like countless gay men of his generation, was empowered in its aftermath. What he had witnessed onscreen that night didn’t resemble the sexual liberation he was experiencing as a proud gay man in New York.

Thus, armed with a 16-millimeter Bolex camera, Mr. Poole decided to do something about it. He headed to Fire Island Pines, the secluded summer Eden for gay men just off Long Island, and there began filming experimental movies with his friends, capturing them making love on beaches and in shady groves.

And he did so with an auteur’s touch, as if he were some very horny version of D.A. Pennebaker, striving to portray artful realism in the male intimacy he was documenting.

Mr. Poole soon made a feature-length, surrealistic movie called “Boys in the Sand” (the title a spoof on “The Boys in the Band,” the groundbreaking 1968 play and 1970 film adaptation about gay men in New York), and its release in 1971 proved revelatory. He was hailed as a pioneer of gay porn, and the film became a crossover hit that changed attitudes about pornography among both the gay and straight audiences that lined up to see it.

Are the only shows he watches Kimmy Schmidt, RuPaul’s Drag Race, Orange is the New Black, and Pose? I get the impression the only way he can get an idea like that are if his media tastes skew strongly towards gay media. And if he’s that homophobic, and his tastes evidently skew that far towards gay stuff that he thinks black people are more likely to be LGBTQ than straight in media (it’s one thing if they’re more common in media than in real life, but this is just strangely wrong), the whole Armored Closet Gay stuff really starts to make sense.

Edit: It took a while, but I found it in Post 1064, with him asking "Would you say that there's more black lbgt representation than straight black representation?"

Stop it, the only movies to win best picture, with black main characters in the last 5 years were about gay black men. Find ONE movie starring straight black men that has won an Oscar in the past 20 years (slave movies don't count).

There's Billy Porter, a talentless hack, who's only claim to fame is being a black man that wears dressees on the red carpet (do a Google image search of him). It was interesting to see Billy get butthurt at Harry Styles for wearing a dress because he knows he has zero talent.

Awww…you poor persecuted straight black man. The black gays encroaching on your territory, are they? Are they gonna take away all your straight, black rights?

You can stop embarrassing yourself at any time, ya know.

A month ago @Huggy Bear was clutching his pearls over the murders of two gay, black men by a rich white guy, because Gay Black Lives Matter so deeply and profoundly to him, and today he’s big mad because they’re stealing all the Oscars.

You. Cannot. Make. This. Shit. Up.

bold mine...You have one of the biggest persecution complexes known to man. Did it ever occur to you that the movies with gay black men were better than recent movies starring black men that aren't, or aren't portraying gay men? No, no...that can't be it...it's a conspiracy.
