#Im straight but [MOST VIOLENTLY HOMOSEXUAL THING I HAVE EVER HEARD]

[real-fire-emblem-takes]

I wanna do a run of 3 houses with female Byleth, but male Byleth is so hot. I want him so bad it's unreal. It's weird because I am a straight man, but that cutscene in hopes where Shez and Byleth were fighting? The one where Sothis possesses Byleth? The part where the camera pans up to Byleth holding the sword to the viewers throat? I was staring disrespectfully at that slutty corset. "Femleth belly" this "femleth big titty" that. Male Byleth also has fat tits and a slutty waist. That's just a Byleth thing. Being Byleth means being inherently hot. But god that tasteful corset on male Byleth, highlighting his chest... drives me crazy.

obviously all lgbt ppl face oppression and trials but its just my subjective belief only based on my emotions and personal experiences that a lot of lgbt ppl that are out and consistently have access to ppl that are supportive of them for being that way lose touch with how much the isolation and pain from being lgbt affects you. already we see it when ppl just whip out the q slur randomly bc they cant fathom that ppl are still violently homophobic. the lonliness that some lgbt ppl feel is extremely cutting. being around people who dont respect you, disown you, actively want to cause violence towards you is traumatic. and, at least for me, most of my social interactions are with people like that. its hard to believe youre anything less than human when you feel like youre put down day and night for shit you cant control.

the entire reason i bring this up is bc i was watching this shitty video and decide to destroy my frontal lobe by reading the comments, and it was filled with so much straight bigotry that it caught me off guard. then it made me feel even worse bc i was recognizing things commentors were saying bc i had heard them from people like my own parents and my peers. things like "unlike f*ggots, straight people dont try to play the victim all the time" "trans people dont have the right to live" "gay people should keep to themselves because no one wants sex shoved in their faces" "homosexuality is a disgusting choice prompted by degenerates who refuse to ignore their animalistic desires, which most people can, and therefore they deserve any negativity they get"

this was legitimate shit i was actually reading and it made my heart literally drop because i still have to hide who i am to everyone. even online despite my openness im filled with constant anxiety bc ive had my tumblr stalked by ppl irl multiple times, and have even been threatened to be outed to ppl who are known to be homophobic. the only reason this stopped was bc the person who had found the way to bypass me blocking them all moved and lost contact with everyone else, but it goes to show just how unsafe, isolating, and dangerous being lgbt is. ive heard multiple people talk about what kind of violence they want to enact on trans people. do ppl understand how horrifying it is, to hear someone right next to you say "yeah, if i ever got my hands on one of those 'multigender' f*gs id fuckin beat the shit out of em" and then continue to list off the detailed way theyd do it? my parents refuse to acknowledge my sexuality and gender and force me to hide it bc it shames and disgusts them. even those who say they support lgbt ppl continuously show their true colors around me, using slurs loudly and openly and saying that gay people are greedy for continuing to fight for their rights, or that theyre whiny bc they complain about oppression.

i dont know, i guess i wish more ppl truly understood this when talking about the lgbt community. i feel like so many ppl, especially on here, know how bad it is objectively, but never really grasp the full scope of it, or become completely detached. its like no one whos not in that sort of situation wants to truly face it conceptually, which is understandable, but i think change will only come from actually, fully and personally recognizing what life is for so many of us.
