Yay breakfast in hell this morning. I ran into Austin and he's horrible. He refuses to participate in any of the LGBT Co-Op's events because he hates gays here, "they're too gay" and he's a "horrible fag" so I should just leave him alone.

He's annoying for a whole bunch of other reasons, but really, here's my question, is what he said acceptable? Do I have a right to be angry at him, or should I just give up and chase after some other apathetic queer people who don't have barbed wire claws?

And a question for you. We all write about slash, so I'm expecting some good answers from you. I know what I consider stereotypically gay behavior, I'm surrounded by several boys who fit the mold perfectly, but what do you guys see as stereotypical? And what does it mean for straight boys who have those characteristics?

Oddly enough, straight guys trying to be gay is supposed to be the latest 'thing'. I forget what it's called. -_-

And I never thought about my brother being gay until I went home for my dad's funeral and one of my other brothers pointed it out to me, so I'm afraid I'm no help there at all. :/

Still, if he doesn't want to be friends, you can't make him. *hugs*

The older I get the less patience I have for bitchy queens. A lot of the stereotypical gay male behaviors (sassy quips, mean comments about people's clothes, etc.) if exhibited by straight men would just be considered rude.

You can't force anyone to participate or be interested in events, but you can step away from people who are toxic (not that I know Austin, just in general). It can be exhausting being around people who only make negative comments and being gay is not an excuse to act that way.
