I feel the same with Gaga. Her music got me through so much confusion and sadness.

 I'm pretty proud of the moment - she didn't even tweet for days when it happened. 
 
Basically me too. BTW got me through 2011 due to that being the year I got outed and all.

 I like that Beyonce got you for these equality speeches 
 
but gurl 
 
I am not into women. Therefore I do not want a man who acts/resembles/looks like a woman.  
 
Idk how me, as a gay, am suppose to be into that? 
 
I'm not even asking for a FULL straight like masculine man. Have the kinda gay voice like me, but damn. I don't want no man with his hair dyed 3 different colors, nails painted, or always rapping some Nicki Minaj.

 Don't be. I just mean that if you're single and sad, it's all good - just cry about it in here.

The idea that we should have to "come out" as dumb as **** anyway
 
That just further perpetuates the idea that being gay is something abnormal that deserves a lot of attention
 
It should just be like, 
"Hey, mom, I met a nice boy. We been  trading nudes talking for a while now. 
I invited him over to dinner, so make sure you wash the good plates."
 
But, no
 
We have to feel pressured into hiding this about ourselves until the right time and then revealing it in some unnecessarily emotional sit-down filled with either lots of hugs, lots of swearing or both
 
Like it's a damn cancer or something

 Agreed, I really don't ask for too much. 
I just don't want to be with a drag queen or with someone who wants to be called princess   
I literally had a guy tell me everyone calls him princess, that aint cute to me...sorry...

One of my friends, whom is female, thought she was talking to this guy in Alabama

 Ouch   
The pictures he sent me on my phone also match one on his Facebook account. So he has to be real. 
 
He said he's shy but I really don't understand why it's so hard to just pick up the phone when *69

Well, yeah I understand that sis 
It's no shade at all
 
I don't want Pepper LaBeija poking at my holes either
 
I'm just saying it's weird how we're conditioned to think this way
 
We got gays tryna fit themselves into gender roles like they aren't in a  homosexual relationship
