Im gay and always act very stoic around women. I never say things that could be misintepreted around women. I always act very robotic around women also.

I would have been prefered to have been straight in the 1950s and 1960s, but this day in age I am glad I am gay because straight men seem to have lots of allegations towards them for anything not politically correct. They have to be very cautious to never say one wrong thing these days.

It seems as though more straight men though are afraid of allegations or just that one non-politically correct thing they say ruining their career or coming back to haunt them.

I have had many roommates over the years, who may be mostly straight on the Kinsey scale but not all the way who seem to prefer being around men just based on the fact with women they always have to have their guard up according to what they have told me.

Even being a gay man, I would never say anything that wasn't completely politically correct around women these days in any sort of environment.
This post says it all about what is wrong with PC. This post describes FEAR about speaking, fear of losing everything and being punished if one says something that these people do not approve of. If you are not free to say something controversial or even offensive without being punished then you are not living in a free society. Political correctness is the most un American idea ever to become mainstream in America.

I have what can be considered a Woke GF. She would calls herself a Progressive though. She's a big Obama fan, Hillary fan, even after Hillary went nuts. She pretty much is in line with everything the current batch of Woke Democrats push. She probably admires the Jihad Squad but she keeps quiet on that. When she gets too high on herself I tell her she should find herself a nice Liberal Muslim man She gets pissed at me but always comes back.

Thank God I found a great man 30 years ago and don't have to worry about it. I feel for anyone single in today's world, that includes my sons. I hope they are able to find a decent loving woman who isn't a nut case.

Dating is rough anyway. I’m glad I’m not in the pool anymore. And not just because of woke folk...it sucks trying to find a mate.
