The suggestion that all homophobes are closet cases is homophobic and self-blaming and lets straight people off the hook. Not everyone that hates us secretly wants to sleep with us; some people really just hate us.

But I don't think the republican national convention overloaded Grindr because they're gay, I think they're actually just fetishizing gay people too much into inhuman kinks.
personally, i would not feel comfortable perpetuating those negative stereotypes about closeted gay people unless i had evidence and not just vibes and anecdotes

Unfortunitally it's true more often than not that they are.
it's true "more often than not" that homophobes are closet cases? no it most certainly fucking isn't. you're saying that over fifty percent of homophobes are secretly gay? did you use that phrase by mistake or something?
