Like G-d………y'all will cry over brokeback mountain but y'all will sit and make stupid mocking elitist comments @ men who actually live those realities and are brought up since birth to believe that desire for men is unnatural and disgusting and work it out in ways that aren’t fun liberal gay stereotypes.

Like y'all do not care about rural folks a bit and you couch it in these ugly classist ideals that say no one who lives out in the country knows what’s good for them and that’s what drives country folks deeper into the arms of conservatism and those types of harmful ideals, because those groups are accepting of them and don’t call them stupid every ten g-ddamn minutes. Y'all don’t realize that oppressed groups live out here too and are having to figure out our own ways to make it work

I want to be clear that this isn’t me saying “feel bad for bigots who happen to live in the country.” I’m trying to say that many gay and bisexual folks in rural areas are dealing with levels of internalized homophobia that cause them to disidentify completely with homosexuality and the community at large, and their experiences need to be respected the same as anyone’s, not mocked & patronized by people who live in less repressed regions and think that means they know better. You don’t.
