Mine too, but like your husband, it doesn't bother him. If we go in a gay bar the men think I'm his faghag! I actually enjoy them trying to come on to him. I guess that makes me a little sick

This is likely to be because their sexualities are attacked over and over. Along with them being physically attacked/intimidated on a regular basis, just for being gay. The stories I have heard about how lesbians are treat in general would curl toes tbh.

Is that because lesbians are much more private? gay men tend to be out there in all their glory. All of us love a gay male friend because they are so much fun. Lesbians on the other hand, generally aren't a lot of fun to be around.

I would also say that transsexuals and transvestites are attacked a lot, especially physically. If you look at suicide rates of transexuals, its a lot higher than the average gay person.

One things for sure from this thread... you and I haven't led sheltered lives
