1) I guarantee this is a chud who only watches gay porn and yet has convinced himself he's not gay for whatever dumb reason and so he lives a life of mental gymnastics and misery instead. And no I don't think all homophobes are secretly gay. I just suspect this guy based on the weird mental gymnastics he does
2) "to make sure I'm transparent, I'm straight" / "these labels don't need to exist" lol

I definitely should have provided more context for this post and explained their further behaviour more. In a comment before this he uses his logic here to argue against "special treatment" for LGBT+ people for example, by which he means LGBT charities, pride, gay spaces, etc. I should have included more of that as the lack of context for his remarks makes it look like Im attacking the guy for having a fairly nuanced take on sexuality - which wasn't my intention
In another comment he gets mad someone suggests that "even you could be a little gay, it's a sliding scale" and reiterates his straight credentials. Idk I missed too much of the context with this and ended up looking like I'm attacking a guy for having a pretty good take on sexuality. Lesson learned.
