Oh yeah, he’s gay. Should just man up about it though but he’s from the mad at rainbows party.

HawlSera ,

This explains so much about why he hates the gays and believes in “Traditional Family” (a word which here means, female slavery to a man)

Ooohhh, we’re gonna get a closeted vice president!

prole ,

Right. So self-loathing queer person that has allowed his disgusting, toxic, religion to break his mind.

ipkpjersi ,

How to out yourself without realizing it 101.

I’m going to guess he also grew up in a highly religious household.

norimee ,

His eyeliner still thinks so.

That’s just a little manscaping! He’s just metrosexual!

Also, he hates drag queens. Don’t you dare suggest anything.

The “Hillbilly Elegy” movie sissy hypno scene was crazy. Can’t believe they left that in.

prole ,

I will never intentionally expose myself to that garbage, so I’ll just ask… What? I’m curious how that fits into this guy’s story.

Nit: the title of the post could simply strike the words “that he” to read much more naturally

I don’t disagree, but you have to post the headline the way it was written on the original site. That’s a community rule.

Thanks, then I redirect my nit at the article!

JD Vance once wrote that he ‘convinced myself that I was gay’ when he was a kid

And just who is he blaming for that?

Blumpkinhead ,

Probably liberals and the woke agenda.

Without fail, another anti-LGBT Republican with stories about “sexual confusion” and “the temptation of same-sex relations” that all but confirm that they are queer and closeted.

A coworker of mine once tried to pick my brain on gay marriage say something to the effect of “people like you and I wouldn’t be resisting the urge if we didn’t know it was wrong”. I had to pop his bubble by explaining to him that I had never felt the temptation to be gay ever in my life because I am straight, but if I really wanted dick I’d seek it out because sex is fun and I’ll have it with anyone if think it will be mutually enjoyable.

He literally couldn’t wrap his brain around the idea that I was completely willing to have sex with any person that struck my fancy, but that men were never even a consideration. He was experiencing the exact opposite.

Needless to say, he’s still deeply closeted, but he doesn’t bring up gay marriage stuff anymore to me because I think I gave him an ongoing existential crisis. I hope he figures it out eventually…

But statistically, once you’re so deep in the closet that you’ve convinced yourself that everyone wants gay sex, and only “sinners” give into that urge, you’re probably not in the path to figuring anything out. Unfortunately, these people always vote for Fascism, constructing the prison that they themselves will be locked in.

It’s deeply tragic isn’t it, how good we are at lying to ourselves?

Buddahriffic ,

It makes me wonder if a “straight people don’t have to fight gay urges” PR campaign might neuter a lot of this anti-gay angle. Turn these “inspirational” lies into admissions and use their hate against them.

tlou3please ,

So, is he…

  1. Fundamentally misrepresenting homosexually as self delusion and a choice, or
  2. A closet homosexual in denial, like so many other homophobes

I guess they’re not mutually exclusive.

“I closeted myself and am resigned to a loveless marriage in my pursuit of a political career. Why can’t you?”

  1. A normal human, most of which are varying degrees of bisexual and questioned things like this wen they were growing up and learning about themselves, but sadly ended up a bigoted asshole

These headlines/news never reach republicans. We are in two complete different Internets.

If sexuality is a spectrum, he’s definitely not firmly on the hetero end.

blarth ,

Every straight person I’ve talked to says they knew they were straight very early on. This goes for me as well. There was a brief moment in my teen years where I asked myself if I might be gay. It lasted about two seconds. The result was negative. There was no way I was going to be gay.

If this dude “convinced” himself he was gay, well, I think he might just be at least bi.

rabber ,

I thought I was gay when I was like 13 or 14 and then never thought of it again, the thought just went away

I still have long hair since that time but have a wife of 10 years ha

Wilzax ,

A lot of bi people just decide to only live as straight since they would rather not deal with the social stigmas of any degree of homosexuality

011000010111001101110011 ,

Yup. I’m bi, but I always knew that I wanted kids and a family so my “choice” was obvious. I also saw my class mates mercilessly bully an openly gay kid, so I simply chose not to go through that myself and never told anyone how I felt.

Idk, man. There are definitely people I know with a very clear gender identity from an early age. But their were plenty more that weren’t so cemented at one pole or the other of the Kinsey Scale.

If this dude “convinced” himself he was gay, well, I think he might just be at least bi.

The problem is fundamentally of definition. Are you simply Bisexual or are you Deluded By Satan Into Having Impure Thoughts?

The answer is entirely rooted in your morality. If you’re convinced homosexuality is evil, then of course you’re going to feel like any non-straight impulse must be a sin.
