So I’m not abandoning this blog, but I am notifying my readers that I have opened a new blog that discusses video games as literature. It should come up in the blogroll, but I’m still not entirely certain how to make wordpress function properly, so the address is videogamelit.wordpress.com. I’ll be back to this blog soon to discuss more gay-related issues!! Enjoy

Advice from Some Gay Guy: The New Boyfriend Problem and the Pluralism of Gay Identity Wednesday, Oct 22 2008

Ack! I haven’t updated in forever, but I have a valid excuse: The new boyfriend problem. The new boyfriend problem is when you have a new boyfriend, or you’re seriously dating someone in a prelude to his becoming your boyfriend, and so you neglect all of your other activities. Including running a blog.
So, as a little ego masturbation, I’m just going to give a few (vague) details of my new guy. He’s funny and sweet and an all-around nerdling, so we’re a pretty good match. Anyways, back to the substantial stuff.
So…why are we discussing yet again the pluralistic idea of gay identity? Being the owner of this blog, I am privy to the search engine terms that send me traffic, most of which have lately been “where to stick my penis in my girl’s vagina.” Surprise!! Hope you enjoyed that search result. A good deal of my search engine terms, however, have been things such as “am I the only bi guy who likes being called a fag,” “faggots are just girls to be used,” “what is the factor of a real man becoming a faggot,” or “do gay guys sleep without their shirt.”
To what depths has the human intellect descended? I mean, seriously. No, not all fags sleep without shirts. And to the bi guy who was wondering if he’s the only one who likes to be called a fag, why does it matter? Keep living your life the way YOU want to live it (so long as it doesn’t encroach on others’ rights and liberties). The factor of a real man becoming a faggot? Really? Can you define for me what a “real man” is? A lumberjack? If so, then are the rest of us just imaginary men? Actually, that’d be kind of cool as a solipsistic statement, but that’s not the point. Let me reiterate in order to get us back on track: THERE. IS. MORE. THAN. ONE. WAY. TO. BE. GAY. I’m certain that a number of gay men would be opposed to my using “faggot” to describe a gay man. Similarly, there is more than one way to be stupid, as demonstrated by these search engine terms.
Finally, to the person who searched for the whole “faggots are just girls to be used,” which I’ve intentionally ignored until this point as I feel it is loaded with the most offensive content, you are a piece of shit. Perhaps more accurately, you are the stealthy tapeworm that goes undetected in a piece of shit thus leading to serious illness. What I mean to say is that, in your normal life, you probably conscientiously obey the social mores of nondiscriminatory behavior, and you search for these things in your spare time when nobody notices. Your search is not only homophobic but also sexist. And it’s people like you who end up infecting society with the idea of acceptable homophobic behavior, hence illness. Tapeworm. It’s all a metaphor, people. To you, search engine user, please go die.

Well, the results are in, and Lil’ Kim it will be. I will also be continuing with less frivolous, but still (hopefully) interesting and insightful posts as soon as time allows. In other words, as soon as I finish my latest video game, Disgaea DS. Peace!
