No fats, no femmes.
We’ve all seen this quote in profiles on gay dating apps–so many times in fact that it has become a running joke about the insensitivity of some gay guys. Rainbow flags and Born This Way Pride are nowhere to be found on most dating apps these days. Instead, insults and putdowns on everything from body type and race to age and gender expression make looking for a date feel more lonely than ever before.
For a people bonded by feeling different, sometimes it seems like we’ve learned to be almost as mean as the people who made us feel being different was wrong in the first place.
