Ugh. Don't get me started on this. This idea that gay folk are supposed to be as vanilla as humanly possible so as to not upset the heteros annoys the living crap out of me. Then there's that whole "straight-acting" BS. You can drink all the beer and watch all the football you want - if you suck d&ck, you're not "straight-acting." And it doesn't make homophobes hate you any less.
