ARE HOMOPHOBIC SELF HATING GAY MEN FAIR GAME?

We all have our opinions on “outing” people and I personally think that its not the right thing to do to someone. But I do think their is a difference between a person who just hasn’t come to terms with their sexual orientation and someone who is insecure in their sexual orientation and uses that as an excuse to belittle, demean, and attack other gay men (homophobia).

Once again I am going to delegate to Sparky on this one. He writes:

“For many years I have wrestled over the idea of outing homophobes, and the full reasoning would take another post – but I have largely come down on the side of believing homophobic closet cases working against us are fair game.” – Sparky

What do you guys think? Are homophobic self hating gay men fair game? Do they forfeit their right to discretion when they spend their time attacking and belittling other gay men?

  1. I FEEL THAT IT ISN’T OUR PLACE TO OUT ANOTHER PERSON, WE DON’T KNOW WHAT IS GOING IN THEIR LIVES SO WE DON’T GET TO DECIDE HOW THEIR SEXUAL PREFERENCE IS MADE PUBLIC.
