Gays need to realize that they still hold institutional power over women despite being a sexual minority.

We worship women tho

Bitch the LAST thing gays want to do is grope women, wtf is this person saying???

Nah uh. Maybe for the gays who are able to completely hide it but still, being a woman has a TON of advantages Just stop.

Yes you do worship women. As nothing more than quick gratifying products for shallow consumption.

There has been many instances where gay men have groped their female friends or other women for laughs. Meanwhile the women is extremely uncomfortable.

I highly doubt there are many gays that are going out of their way to touch a woman's vagina. I feel like this happened to this woman one time and suddenly she's generalizing the situation. And I don't see a problem with using the word "bitch" or "****" if you mean it jokingly. There's definitely a lot of sexism out there in the world though and I sure hope gays not to oppress others.

If anything, it's the opposite. Girls LOVE to depersonalize gays as their gay BFF. It's the edgy thing to do nowadays!! In reality, though, most of them don't even take us seriously. At least not to the extent of a straight person.

I worship Gaga because of her philosophies and viewpoints on fame/society and her dedication to empowerment, actually. Umm ok, but this article is acting like it's all of us.

This is so stupid

What is this fanfic?

The only possible scenario is that she's being groped by str8s who pretend to be gay to get away with it, but even that is not completely realistic and doesn't happen everyday like she's making it out to be. Gays DEFINITELY don't go around groping you, ma'am. They don't care. They want dick.

This.

Totally disgusting for men to be touching women inappropriately, regardless of their sexual orientation (and especially bad if they're using their sexual orientation as an excuse / justification). Queer men also shouldn't use words like "bitch," "sl—" to describe their female friend(s) unless said friend(s) has expressly indicated that they're okay with such words being used.

Treat women better, boys.

Or the gay men who think its fine to refer to women as bitch. Gay men can be as misogynistic as the straight men they claim to not act like against women.

The issue is recognizing that gays could be sexist which is true

But a majority of them are not, especially not compared to straight men

You really haven't seen that happen?

What about women and their homophobia. They call out for the deaths of gays. Feminist are dangerous who will go out their way to criminalize everybody but themselves.

After a gay man at a club put his hand under her dress and grabbed her vagina he said, “Babe, relax it’s OK, I’m just having fun.” Then he squeezed her breasts.

I feel like this only refers to gay men in the high fashion industry Gay men want nothing to do with female private parts.

I disagree. It entirely depends on the context.

Can't stand the matronizing tone. I've never once touched a woman inappropriately and I feel no desire to ever do such a thing. This isn't a "Gay men don't respect women" issue; it's a "Some people weren't raised with common manners or decency" issue.

How exactly do you know this? Isn't this article defeating that? By saying only a minority can be sexist doesn't make sense here.

Yeah gay men touching women's vaginas is not a prevalent issue in the slightest.

But there's definitely some truth involved in this, many gay man and straight women relationships are very problematic. There's a tendency for both to treat the other like an object

I absolutely have not

A few gay men are sexist, there's no denying that. But groping doesn't happen and having your friend call you "bitch" is not an example of that either. It's a part of the lingo and has no negative connotation in the mind of the guy, he probably calls his guy friends "bitch" too from time to time. If it offends you, tell him to stop. Like...
