Today some guy called us a “pansy” on Curbed.
Our feelings were hurt! Lol.
We’re still kind of weak, but living in Washington Heights for ten years has toughened us up.
The Gay Recluse is a pansy. It took him until he was fucking 31 to come out? Please. I was enjoying sucking dick at 14 (often) and came out to the parents at 21. P.S. TGR and I are the same age to boot…

It is a relief to learn that you are a pansy.
James Baldwin noted, in “Giovanni’s Room”: “The way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people’s pain.” (Or, substitute “experiences” for “pain.”) Commenter #5 might benefit by contemplating this. But I suspect he’s too “straight-acting.” Instead he’ll conclude that I’m a pansy, too.
Correctly.
Hey C. Thanks for the comment. I don’t get the sense that Commenter #5 is much into contemplation, but that’s ok–it’s good to remember that the realm of shallow thinkers extends well beyond any delineation based on sexual orientation!
Boy, it’s such a shame more people aren’t brave enough to be sucking lots of cock when they are 14.
