A Zone of Internalized Homophobia

A resolution:

  • Whereas I believe that it is no more excusable for Sodomites to behave like total idiots than it is for anyone else, and…
  • Whereas I do not agree that reacting negatively to idiotic behavior by Sodomites is necessarily an expression of “homophobia” nor of “anti-gay bigotry”, and…
  • Whereas I believe that yelling “homophobia” every time someone criticizes the stupid behavior of any given Sodomite individual trivializes REAL instances of prejudice and discrimination, and…
  • Whereas I refuse to believe in a “unified gay front” where we must all think alike and defend each other’s actions, no matter what, and…
  • Whereas I believe the idea that such a thing as a “gay community” exists is laughable…
  • Whereas I refuse to pretend that bad movies, books, or music are good just because they have “gay themes” or “gay characters”, and…
  • Whereas I fail to recognize that sucking dick has much influence over any aspect of my personality other than the sexual part thereof, and…
  • Whereas I do not believe that Sodomites are inherently inferior to the general population, but I also do not believe that we are inherently superior, and…
  • Whereas I do not believe the lifestyle-oriented reporting of the “gay press” is related in any way to news, nor to my life, and…
  • Whereas I refuse ever to use a term like “gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, or questioning” to classify a group of people with nothing else in common nor to describe myself (God forbid) as a member, and…
  • Whereas I believe that “homophobia” (internalized or otherwise) is a stupid and imprecise term.
  • Whereas I refuse to allow this site to be called a “gay website” even if it some day decides to admit that it sleeps with other websites…

Therefore, be it resolved that Planet SOMA and The Other Stream are now officially recognized “zones of internalized homophobia”. If you would like to have your site designated an official “zone of internalized homophobia”, please let me know.
