That Gay Thread

[Rev. Rye]

@Huggy Bear

So, now that you’ve had a couple of days to familiarize yourself with the current body of evidence on this subject that you seem to have quite strong feelings about, go ahead and tell us what you’ve learned.

I pretty much have a thesis planned which exposes the clear agenda as it relates to LBGT vs blackness, no lies will be told, just straight facts.

Before all that, I have a question for you. Since we seem to disagree on definitions, if a straight male has sex with a Trans female (still for all intents and purposes male sexually), do you consider that to be homosexual sex?

I don't. I just consider it an odd kink that I, honestly, don't share. While looking for other opinions on the subject, I came across this Dan Savage advice column where he talks to a man questioning his sexuality after banging a trans sex worker, and he said this:

If nothing I’ve said has made you feel better, WSOWS, maybe this will: gay men don’t hire trans women sex workers. Wanting to be with a woman who has a dick is an almost exclusively straight-male kink/obsession/wild side. Gay men are into dick, of course, but what we’re really into is dudes. There are gay men out there who date and fuck and shack up with trans men—men with pussies—so not all gay men are after dick. What we’re all after is dude.

If it were only that simple.
Trans women say they are "real" women, which means they want relationships with straight men like real women.  If you're not down with that as a straight male, then you're just plain transphobic, like they called Ginuwine after he rejected the advances of a Trans woman.

Frankly, this reeks of the old saw that men are always eager to have sex with every woman they encounter to me, and it's more than a little disappointing that people who aren't straight men are falling into that rhetorical trap.
