From musings on gay culture:
gay culture is:
– falling for a straight boy
– falling for a boy that’s 9997383 miles away
– falling for a boy and never telling him
– falling for a celebrity that isn’t gay and you can’t date
– falling for a boy you talked to once and will never see again— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) September 9, 2018
gay culture is falling in love with the pretty cashier who helped you for two minutes

gay culture is telling your partner “that’s gay” every time they do something romantic and cute

To his thoughts on homophobia:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
If you're a homophobe just remember homophobe spelled backwards is ebohpomoh and that's makes no sense just like your views

REMEMBER before you start making homophobic comments via your computer that you have to thank Alan Turing, a gay man, for your computer.

Reflections on dating:
gay dating is a lot like finding a job, you either find one on the internet or get a referral through a friend

To today’s youth:
if LGBT+ kids are too young to know they're LGBT+ then straight kids are def too young to know they're straight
— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) August 29, 2018
everyone: teenagers need to focus on more important things
teenagers: *talk about politics, feminism, race, sexuality etc*
everyone: you’re just a teenager you don’t know what you’re talking about.. chill lol
— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) August 19, 2018
hey uhh if anyones still confused theres nothing nsfw about being gay there are gay kids and if you think puppy love between straight kids is cute but puppy love between gay kids is gross then you are in fact homophobic
— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) August 17, 2018
Plus, he has thoughts on lot of other topics, including…
Fashion:
gays adapted the 80s and 90s masculine style but now we are called feminine and f*gs for it. pic.twitter.com/5od5ksohm0
— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) August 3, 2018
Hollywood:
not putting gays on tv is a huge mistake because gays will literally watch anything that has gays in it
— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) September 4, 2018
Gay privilege:
what is gay privilege?
better sex.
no accidental kids.
date someone your size and double your wardrobe.
not being straight.
being able to listen to really good music together because of automatic good taste.
automatically being considered family by new freinds.— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) June 29, 2018
Mythology:
if you liked mythology as a kid you're gay
— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) September 14, 2018
Bisexuality:
bi boys vs gays
bi boy: I like both men and women
gay: I just like men
bi boy: cool you’re valid
gay: thanks you’re extremely valid toothe end
— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) May 14, 2018
Adam and Eve:
why do people like to use the whole "adam and eve not adam and steve" against gays like need i remind you that adam and eve had one job but they screwed that up and plunged humanity into sin like they aren't exactly the poster couple for a healthy relationship
— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) April 19, 2018
Straight guys:
STRAIGHT GUYS !!! if a gay guy thinks you're hot, you should feel flattered. because we are picky as fuck.
— ALEXANDER J. (@ItsAlexJackson) May 6, 2018

Related: These tweets about gay culture are lighting up social media — sound familiar?
mr guy
OMG it’s like the Algonquin. No wonder “we” love him
nunya
????????????????

Your reference would fly right over his head.
badpappy
Absolutely no different then straight or bi cultures… all sounds very human to me.
QueerTruth
Big differences here… Huge difference in the context of the struggles for the LGBT community…. But I think I understand your sentiment.
nunya
He’s as deep as most homos. Not very. No wonder QWEERTY thinks him erudite.
Thad
I like him.And I’m so not the target audience.
StupidBoy
Gays are like: describing grown men as “boys” because that’s what the straight, homophobic world who thinks we are all pedophiles has come to expect.
I’m not attracted to “boys,” I’m attracted to men.
Words have meaning and power.
I DO describe cute, twinky, gym rat boiz as one thing: chew toys.
You might want to lay down on chew on them for a while, but when you get tired of them squeaking, you leave them in the middle of the floor where you found them and go into the bedroom and take a nap.
Don’t accuse me of like a “boy” because I’m attracted to an adult, grown man.
I regularly classify young, pretty boi, gym rat, can’t boil water to save their life, as “boys” because that’s what they are. Little millennial boys who have no life skills and couldn’t do laundry or have never bought a vegetable to cook themselves without McDonald’s or Chipolte’s help.
No thanks. But, do you, sweetie.

falling for a straight boy
– falling for a boy that’s 9997383 miles away
– falling for a boy and never telling him
– falling for a celebrity that isn’t gay and you can’t date
– falling for a boy you talked to once
I’ve been the entire rainbow my whole life and I’ve never done any of these things so I guess I’m not really gay. These things might make you immature, socially underdeveloped or even stupid. But they definitely don’t make you gay.
