I write so many songs about this. It's so confusing. On one hand, we enjoy the extra attention from women but then we realize that it's a vapid relationship and they only see us as a caricature of the GBF. Then they treat homosexuality like a joke and insult. It's demeaning and dehumanizing and turns us into purses or shoes. So saddening and infuriating to see the way homophobia works from the subtle, unconscious effects to the outright demonic aggression.
EDIT: not all women

don't generalize. I'm talking about a select group.
