    I have zero sympathy for cis straight people who think they have limited dating options.

      Ok then I’ll have zero sympathy for assholes, regardless of orientation. Like yourself.

        I shared a personal observation about how limited my dating options are — something that’s demonstrably true for gay men — and your immediate response was hostility? I didn’t attack anyone, just offered a contrasting reality.

        It’s telling when empathy is expected but not extended. If someone shares a different lived experience and your first response is name-calling rather than reflection, that reveals more about your approach to discourse than it does about mine.

        We don’t need to agree, but some consistency between values and behavior would go a long way. Otherwise, your comment is just a performance of compassion, not a practice of it.

        Have a day.

      Huh? My LGBT friends are out there slaying and when my straight ass was last single, I got maybe a date a year. At this point, I’m fully prepared to die single because at 29 as a below average looking male, I’m not exactly the person any woman out there is looking for.
