Maybe gays flee to straight states because they are terrified of getting AIDs, like the libs fleeing their cities hate the results of.....
Whether you say this in jest or not, I suspect there’s an element of truth to this.
I have a cousin who lives outside of Hattiesburg with his partner, and they both say that they hate being associated with other homosexuals. They hate the parades, the flaunting, the sleaze, the politics.. they see this filth on TV, the effeminate, attention-craving antics - and actually call it all “faggy” and embarrassing.
(Kinda shocked me the first time I heard them use that word.)
After being together for a few years, they bought a place in the country and have been out there now for 15 years, one an engineer (formerly air force) and one a construction manager. While I usually hate what the homos are doing to our society (it’s friggin’ everywhere. Sickening), I can actually respect them on some level for conducting their lives in this manner. If they can’t go straight, at least they’re willing to be quiet about it.
