#angels in America

[pierrotsloop]

A frightening thing about angels in America is that I wouldn't have to be THAT much worse of a person to make the same choices that Louis does . Like if I sucked 15-20% more I would probably do all that . But when you watch it you're like fuck this guy sucks . He doesn't even understand love is continuous action and hurt is visible!!!! But he could be any leftist coastal gay boy who's too self involved and frightened .

i'm watching angels in america and in the first episode, there's this scene where the politician roy cohn monologues about why he's not a homosexual despite exclusively fucking other men, and it like. PERFECTLY articulates something i've been thinking a lot about lately (funnily enough from having just watched fellow travelers which also featured a fictionalized roy cohn, and then looking into him and his insistence that he couldn't be gay because he was masculine, that he didn't have AIDS until he died of it - i had no idea he'd be in AiA though, that's a major coincidence)

basically, when a guy says something along the lines of "i'm not gay, i just have sex with men" and your instinct is to ask "lmao what do you think being gay IS": this is your answer. THIS is what they think being gay is. and the thing is that they're genuinely not completely wrong. are they harming themself? are they actively splitting their sense of self in half? are they almost definitely being horrible to other people too? yes and yes and yes, but for the time being, this is quite genuinely their concept of their gender, because Gay Man is a gender category. that's one of the many things that Gay Man is (it's also a factual description), but in terms of their identity and their place within the world, they're kind of right.
