Indeed, but if you get the horse drunk enough they can pretend they didn’t know what they were doing.

A fun little movie reimagining Pride and Prejudice in modern times and with an all gay (and very diverse) cast. It's well produced and surprisingly queer (I thought it was gonna pander more to mainstream tastes to become some kind of a cross-over hit but I guess being interesting to gay audiences is sufficient these days to secure some serious funding). I'm putting it here and not in the movie thread because I really don't think many non-gay people would be interested in seeing it.

Also, it was nice to hear Perfume genius on the soundtrack.

Tbh I think trans men and women who... "commit" to their "chosen" gender are just going to get more traction at least with non-psychos for the same reason bisexuals aren't taken as seriously as straight up homosexuals. Providing a clear distinction helps to crystallize in people's minds an alternative. So basically not being taken as seriously is probably just going to happen.

Not really advice just a perspective.

Anyhow, here’s my favourite. He could have parked his boots under my bed any day even if, as I suspect, that thing was airbrushed in. .

I believe homosexuality was derided by many as Greek degeneracy infiltrating Roman society. I don't know how it was perceived throughout all 1000 years of the Republic and Empire but Rome was at least more conservative and prudish than it gets credit for.

One of the mysteries of the male heterosexual so called mind is how, given the right circumstances, they can efficiently produce an erection at the sight of another male’s rear.
Another mystery is how this branch of our species are so frequently ignorant of the erotic potential of their own prostate glands.
Add to this the rigidly repressed history of male/male sexuality during wartime and we have more contradictions than drag queens often taking an active role.

We are indeed a very strange species.
