I skimmed the article and noticed that women are more likely to identify as LGBTQ+, and I wonder if that’s related to the fact that more and more men are becoming conservative, and women are becoming more liberal.
I know I wouldn’t have thought about queerness and my identity if I was conservative, I probably would have thought something silly like “Oh, it’s perfectly normal to be romantically attracted to some men, you eventually grow out of it” instead of asking myself “Am I bi?”
I probably would have also associated my discomfort with my own masculinity with something weird, or over-compensated to account for it.
Nah, it's just women are more likely to admit same sex attraction even if it's occasional.
For men regardless of political orientation, most men wouldn't act on it, and if they do they keep it a secret.
Women get less judgement for it.
So it makes sense men would be underrepresented in surveys.
I think it has to do with judgement mostly. I bet all those “straight” guys I’ve met off Grindr don’t identify as LGBT, even though they… did gay things.
not gay if you're just pitching
also have to say no homo afterwards
Wow they really did retvrn to tradition - this is how the Romans approached it too!
Maybe that explains why they're always thinking about the Roman Empire?
Ugh, I had finally managed to get Caesar's crossing of the Rubicon out of my head and now you've managed to put images of Pompeii's bustling sex economy in my mind. 🙄
When you're finished with that you can think about how Lucretius laid the foundations for scientific materialism 🥰
I see what you did there
