The amount of white gay men I see who still don't realise how much of a dick they look when they right "no blacks, no Asians" across their dating site profiles, and use their little "preferences" to justify blocking minority gays from LGBT safe spaces. It's rampant.
Then these same people question why "LGBT black pride" is a thing...
I saw one guy a few weeks ago up in arms because BLM had "the audacity" to (briefly, not even all day) stop the Toronto Pride parade and make requests for more/better representation of trans and black LGBT people within gay spaces. This guy seriously thought that was such an unreasonable request.
Cmon now...you can't really have a problem with people honestly expressing their sexual preferences and attractions? If I had a dating profile...I'd be pretty upfront about rosy cheeked angular blondes needing not apply......
. I mean, a person could interpret that as some sort of weird anti white reverse racism or plantation complex...or maybe it's just because I spent my formative sexual years surrounded by jewish snowbirds, positively drowning in latin heat...?The only safe space a person is denying someone by being open about what they like, is the one between their legs.
