>>1919124>men having positive, older male role models is extremely important to developing into a socially acceptable manAnd it is funny you mention that because most gay boys don't have any older gay boys/men they can look up to as role models. Authentic media representation by irl gay men portraying gay men is rare, openly gay musicians are rare, etc.
Boy scouts chose to ban both openly gay scouts and leaders. So you care about straight boys having suitable role models, but you don't care, at all, about gay boys having their own role models.
So really its just hypocrisy and you trying to impose a double standard.
>the idea that men wanting to spend time with boys for those purposes is insidious and predatory is the height of bullshit and it's leaving good kids abandoned and purposeless.I was not implying or stating this at any point. I was stating that the dudes who wandered the outdoors in the early 20th century were in some cases probably gay and doing so to be alone with other men.
I don't have a complex where I need to perceive men as sexually predatory and women as weak and innocent like most straight men seem to.
>Equating men spending time in the outdoors to homosexuality and degeneracy is among the most incredibly toxic and snake-like shit i've heard in my lifebecause you have no idea what it is like or how hard it is to have to keep your sexuality to yourself at all times for fear of possibly violent reprisal if people know your sexuality.
You have no idea what it would be like to be fake-married to a woman you don't love as a gay man and how that would drive you.
>You people that think that way are fucking evil.the people who want gays to hide and pretend to be invisible so they can live in comfort are evil.
