Maybe I know too many "clean" homophobes
Maybe I've seen to many people with a lisp that are homophobes.
Maybe most of the time I see queer folk they aren't all dolled up.
Maybe I work blue collar and the only personalization to my person while on the clock are my purple boot laces.
But I don't quite like the "gay people HAVE to look good" vibes I got from reading the first half.
Second half is good though. One of the people I used to work with let their kids painted their nails. So I did the same to make fun of people who complained that he did something nice for their kids.
I'm also not the biggest fan of introducing with pronouns. Time and place, I've done it before and certain contexts it is good to do. I don't like getting limited by gender. I would rather people treat me for me. I'm a "man" so I must abuse my spouse and never wash my butt. Or I'm an enby so I must be a soft bottom.
